jerome jordan with a contest of the shot and then grabbed the rebound, too. i tuned in after tyson picked up two fouls and when i turned it on, for the first few plays i thought jerome jordan WAS tyson.

he looks promising.

have to find a way to get this spacing and continuity with amar'e and melo on the floor. has rarely happened in their 30 or so games together.

fields and toney look much much much better tonight. making better decisions.

Helps when their shots are falling

they're taking better shots - that's what i meant by better decisions. shots coming in the flow of the offense. helps that there is actually flow to the offense.

but i think that's because amar'e is out. edit: not to bash amar'e, but this team hasn't figured out how to play with amar'e and melo on the floor at the same time.

More to do with the level of competition has dropped from the previous 2 games.

You might be right, like a need to get them their shots rather than flowing in the offense

hey, the kings beat the lakers. i'm more concerned with how the knicks are playing than their opponents. this team has looked so bad, i'll take them looking right and gaining confidence against weaker opponents for now.

Hey let's remember that the team had a chance to practice and get a little fine tuning too. So it's not just that they're playing the Kings. It's that they're actually playing better. Floor is spread and they're moving well and sharing the ball. These are things they haven't been doing. There was a lot more standing around and watching going on. Notice that Melo isn't dominating the ball. This playing is better mixed with awful play by the Kings.

I like what I see but unfortunately.....waiting for Knicks to go into "stupid" mode. If the Knicks can keep this up, the game will be over by the half.
