LOL. D'Antoni has a lot to learn about substitution. This is all on the coach.

Don't you want them to tank? How do you know this isn't what their doing.

Yeah, ok. And where is that bridge you want me to buy.

How is Nate not in the game this late in the 4th? Now he puts in both Nate and Al.

It looked like Mike benched him due to his inability to get over screens.

Whatever one you want. I don't get why you want everything both ways. You want the team to tank and then when they lose games you complain about how they are lost. Make up your mind.

Why does the starting PG have the worst +/- on the team?

Answer: Because he sucks.

This team said it was going in playoff mode, if they wanted to tank then Q Rich wouldn't see the light of day. Say what you want but this is coming natural. Not much thought in the losing. Now they can be assure to get that much desire 13th pick.

Yeah Duhon has REALLY and I mean REALLY fallen off. Expectations need to be tempered, this was a career backup who should still be a backup who played out of his head the first 2 months of the season. Duhon will again make an excellent backup when either the Knicks draft a PG or Duhon is on another team.

MDA is not looking to tank. Some fans may want the Knicks to do this, but all you have to do is look at MDA's face to know that he wants to win these games.

He has some major issues with Nate, though, undoubtedly about his decision making process. The same goes for Harrington, I think.

I do wonder how long it will be before he wants to strangle Duhon, who seems to have done a complete Jekyll and Hyde on us from the beginning of the year. It is OK for a rookie center like Lopez to have 5 turnovers in a game- it is not OK for a starting PG to have 6.

I left to go to pick up some dinner - the score was us up 62-53.

Could someone please explain to me how we managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory (again)?

Duhon's just plain tired. The guy is just out of gas. Pretend he's injured and sit him for a week, and then limit his minutes. He's a much better player than what we're seeing now, but he's too burnt out to play his best.

His substitutions were fine. This was one of the more blatant intentional losses I've ever seen.

No Nate, no Al Jr down the stretch... Hmm what's going on there?
Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)
