Would've rather had Jeffries on the inbounder and Chandler on Roy. Even so Lee had a chance to block him or draw a charge and he did a poor job closing out.

You just don't give up a 13 point lead in the 4th.
You need more than 12 FT's from only 2 players.
You foul when you have a foul to give.

.....I'm just sayin.....

If Jefferies is in the game then the you are basically conceding the game.

It should be interesting to see how MDA's press conference goes. I like to see where the blame goes for not fouling. Doesn't look like Jeffries had any intention on fouling. Judging by the Bulls game in a similar situation and MDA yelling at Chandler for fouling with one to give I would say not fouling is the coach's decision.

I didn't like Al's shot he forced earlier either.

That was a useless shot. Knicks can't figure out a way to run their offense in the last two minutes of the game. Take away the pick and roll and you have undisciplined chuckers like Harrington throwing up wild shots at the end of the game and desperation 3's by Duhon

I really don't understand why they didn't foul. It's a well-known fact that the Knicks cannot make a stop when they have to. The Knicks' defensive plan is usually hope the other team misses

You can't blame Lee because that is the way he plays defense, like Matador

David Lee's defense is ugly
TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

That was so dumb going against not one but two shot blockers in the paint. Genius

I realize we're rebuilding and all but this thing with us constantly choking in crunch time has gotta stop.

He's not a shotblocker so I don't know if you can put this on him. Everyone knows about his interior defense. Why not instruct Jeffries to foul and btw, I didn't like the fact that Jeffries sat so long and just got thrown into the game, Chandler too.

That was a very bad decision by D'antoni not to foul you had one to give and it was under five seconds to go. I can't get over how dumb a decision that was. I can't even watch his post game comment because nothing he could say could erase what happened.

D Lee did everything you could ask for tonight--what else can he do? David Lee is a unique player. I don't think anyone correctly evaluates David Lee--he is on the cusp of being a franchise type talent.
