This is disgusting. Sad thing is, the Knicks still have a great shot to make the playoffs. They don't deserve it. Why reward them when they obviously don't want it.

oh don't worry it will work out. if they make the 8th seed, they will be handed an ass beating for the ages by the Pistons. they will see firsthand what it means to play as a team and with heart for 48 minutes.


No dude, Damon plays for the YANKEES. Can't mix sports like that, you'll confuse the kids at home.

(by the way, you get my nomination for post of the year )

It's a good thing that the Knicks didn't get complacent since Isiah got hi extension.

Knicks 1-3 since the announcement on the 12th.

It has NOTHING to do with that. This is just this team finally running out of steam. Steph seems to be tired and hurting. I could see he wasn't himself in the last 2 games. If we don't have him as a TOP scoring option right now, we have no chance. Curry is gonna get swamped inside. We can't get anything out of Francis. That guy just annoys the heck out of me. Dumb plays and he still hesistates when he should shoot. Without Q, Jamal and Lee, we have to depend too much on Steph and he's starting to wear down.

I was happy to see Lee out there, even for a little while. But he's gonna need time to get back into it. This was a big game, cuz now I don't know if we can pull it together enough to win tomorrow. You just never know with this team, but it's not likely. MAN THIS SUCKS!!!!

Then it's a hell of a coincidence.

From the the begining of Feb. to March 10th, they were 9-6. Isiah gets his extension on the 12th and they are 1-3 since then. There have been no sizeable losses(Lee was lost and we were 4-3 in his absence before the extension), Jamal was lost and we were 3-2 in the stretch before the extension.

Each game is following the exact same format: close or leading at the half and we lose it in te 3rd.

On the bright side, they are at least exhibiting the consistency that we all wanted from them. Unfortunately it is them being consistently inconsistent.

We are 4-6 without crawford. we are 5-6 without david.

Jamal is missed ALOT. So is Q. Francis shouldnt even play....he is the f-ing worst. Lee is not there physically. Isiah made some bonehead decisions with his coaching. Especially not to foul. This was an AWFUL loss tonite. Maybe the worst of the year. We shot SO MANY THREES and JC and Q were not even playing. We dont take FT's anymore either. And we cannot score. Nate may have scored 31 pts but we did not win.

When we played the Blazers in Portland, we killed them. Jamal and Eddy dominated. And this was during the post-brawl when we went 7-3. No Jeffries. No Nate. Zach Randolph played. No francis too.

Jamal or Q need to get some type of miracle cure and return asap. The schedule is way too tough. We are very exposed for some reason.


So with this $140mil dollar payroll are you saying this team has no depth?

Queenie, I don't know if it was a typo, but Zach Randolph didn't play.

And I have to say when I compare the two teams(even without Q, Lee, or Crawford) there is still no way we should lose to the Blazers, who are still about 2 years away and a solid center away from competing for a playoff spot.

*sigh* Losses like these keeps teams out of the playoffs and we've had WAY too many of them.

WE HAVE TO BEAT CLEVELAND TOMORROW.

I don't need another season to realize curry is not a franchise player...

Our frontline gives up layup after layup and dunk after dunk.. Give me emeka okafor, even if it is for 50 games a year..

That's foolish hater talk TKF stop it.

I'm glad you're on the right side now jus don't take 65gms to do so next yr. The sad part about the Knicks opponents is the fact they don't attack the rim enough. It's a LOCK layup drill playing against this team.

you know what is so amazing, is how guys 10 inches shorter than both curry and frye, can lay the ball up in their faces!!!!!!!!! How does that happen, in their faces! It all starts in the paint, like walt said, after two passes the knicks lose their man, frye is always so out of position it isn't funny. The initial defense is good, but after that it is hell in a handbasket.... you are right, more teams should realize that they can get a free layup vs the knicks, just set a pick and off you go! and don't worry about the big fat cow in the middle, he won't bother anyone...

that's what a lot of teams have been doing since Curry's "Turnaround". their guards get him on the strong side and just go right at him because they know he has iron boots

I have always been a BIG supporter of your posts...and agree with a lot of what you say

but right now...and maybe for a couple of days....Can you please stop posting? NOthing against you, just the stuff your writing.

this team is finally breaking me down..

LOL.. swish that was funny, but I feel ya, that hornets game tore me to pieces, it really changed the way I feel about this team, I didn't think one game would do that, but I was sick to my guts..... tonight was just a replay. Some old knicks, same old BS....

This team has broken me down. I used to look forward to the days we play, come home from work, think about the game during my 45 minute drive home, get the beer ready, relax and watch the game.. Now I just don't care, I have been scanning the hell out of my direct TV to see what else is on. this team is pathetic!

The knicks don't defend well, they don't block shots or protect the lane, they are not an efficient offensive team and they don't play smart. This has gone on all year. when they had jamal and Q, and a healthy lee, they often bailed the knicks out of a lot of jams, now that they are not here, their bad habbits and stupid plays are just too much to overcome..

Here's a Visual of what the interior defense is like


Here's Curry


Curry's answer....."Yes you have a free pass to get to the hole".

Here's Frye


It looks like he may be playing D but he's got his back turned when he shouldn't and let's the opponent in with ease

Here's the Team acting as One


Layup, Dunk, Backdoor, Score

Absolutely friggen pathetic, thats all I have to say. If anyone has been doubting the stance that myself and others have taken since before last year; that this team needs a franchise player and NOT building around a one-dimensional center then I hope you've realized the err of your ways.

I love the Knicks and I always will but this is tough. This is real tough. This is like watching a drug-addict keep abusing and keep abusing and you just keep your mouth shut and don't want to create any problems. This is the as low as it goes because this is the team that MANAGEMENT thinks can win a championship. I guess we have no choice since we have NO LOTTO PICKS AND NO CAPSPACE!!!

I guess they can win championship in WNBA if they will get some players back healthy but how they will prove that they are women if they cannot even prove that they are man?

Didn't get to listen to the game but why did we only get 14 ft's? Oh well!! I don't know what I feel about this team anymore. I've been a Knick fan for a long time but this current teams play frustrates the heck out of me!!
