Duhon made Jarret Jack look like a 7 time all star. Pathetic.

I love D'Antoni as much as anyone, but what the hell was the reasoning behind that last play? Awful...

how do you set a defense to stop a player that's clearly the second coming of mj?

The question is....why can't you close out a game when you're up 98 to 93?

Wow...**** you Jarett Jack!

Why I thought you root for losses?

What?


What's important according to you right now in regards to this team?

They were doing a good job until Duhon had that stupid reach in foul. The momentum swung after that.

This team problem is we cant guard on the perimeter we get lit up on the perimeter or we let them to the basket with no shot blocker. Memo to Walsh get a defensive minded guard and someone who can shoot from three

Uptown, you are missing my point. The season before the Celtics won people in Boston were calling for Rivers head saying he was an inept coach because of the losses. You indicated that it was ridiculous not to hire a 60 win coach over someone with no experience and I said D'Antoni won in PHX because he had better players. Without those players look at D'Antoni's record in Denver and his first year in PHX. They are in par with is current record with the Knicks.

It doesn't really matter to me. I'm rooting for them to win until they are so far out of it and it is logical to start rooting for ping pong balls. Right now they are still in it and playing hard. It still sucks when we lose but I'm also not throwing things around my house like I used to. Whatever the outcome is okay with me, although I prefer wins right now.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

I love how the MSG crowd chants "D-Fense!" and the Knicks immediately give up a wide open 18 footer. Not a single player running out to the shooter. Why does the crowd even bother. Those chants were for teams that actually played defense.

Absolutely pathetic.

the MSG crowd can chant for free hotdogs & beer, don't mean they're gonna get it.

It didn't used to be like that. But yeah, it's pretty pointless to chant that anymore.

We get ate inside too. It matters who we play. In a nutshell we suck at defense either throughout the whole game on when it's on the line. We don't have 1 single problem on defense and what's even more pathetic we have almost as many problems on the offensive side.

That was a typical D'Antoni game. Helter Skelter offense that keeps you in the game and a sieve like defense that ends up losing it.

What is it with Duhon's foot and dribbling?

Seriously how many times as a Knick fan have you seen a knick dribble the ball of there foot in the waning seconds of a game when a score was needed.

The sad thing that I am noticing is that the players' improv are more effective than D'Antoni late gameplans.

Yeah. Basically my reaction too.

Why Jarrett Jack and his big head was given that much space....
