They need to take the zone out of the nba

its really wack and boring makes the games horrible, the first half was sooo exciting we were gettin to the basket at will marbury was jus dribblin in every time

NO MORE ZONE!!!!!

I disagree, we shouldnt take the zone out of the nba just because we lost the game because of it. Nba teams should be able to play any defense they want like a school yard. I cringe everytime i hear of a defensive 3 second violation, try making that kind of call in a park. We should have thrown the zone right back at them on the defensive end and became an inside out team on the offensive end. Doing so would have given us open shots and we could have broke there zone wide open with the post up and kick outs of Kurt Thomas and Sweetney.

Just my opinion

Not just cuz we lost, cuz it makes the game BORING

when do u see a zone in the playground? lol

screw the zone, the announcer said it too, the first half was exciting as hell then in the second it got soooooo boring cuz in came the zone

When do i see zone defense in the playground? Your kidding right? I dont know where you play but here in brooklyn we play zone all the time. When there is a full court on campus, zone defense is the best way to slow down the game and force the other team to make passes to score. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder man.

i truly believe if Mobley didnt have that abboration of a game tonight the Knicks would consistently win against the Magic. I thought the Knicks played very well except for a few mental mistakes. Otherwise it was a good team effort. I mean Mobley hit practically every shot he took and he is nowhere near as good as he played tonight. What can you do, players you dont expect to break out will do that to you. I thought it was a great game and i was very into it. Ooutcome sucked though.

That wasn't an abberation. What's "consistent" about the Knicks is porous defense. Cuttino Mobley is only the most recent of a long list of players having good games against the Knicks: Antoine Walker, Vince Carter, Milt Palacio...

I hope they tighten the D against Charlotte. GO KNICKS!!!

One of the reasons why the game stayed close is because (orlando coach) Johnny Davis stop coaching when he stopped going down low to Dwight Howard(he was unstoppable), he ALLOWED HIS GUARDS(mobley -Francis) TO MAKE IT OR BREAK IT WITH ONE ON ONE MOVES.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
