1 thing i was curious about watching the game, we didn't run much of the PnR tonight at all... Felton dumped the ball off to Amare in the post, but we didn't run much motion other than a nice give & go by Fields & Amare... there were a TON of kickouts to our 3 point shooters off good ball movement... not much going on in terms of motion w/o the ball... Wilson usually feeds off that kind of offense where he can get points slashing to the rim, that might explain why he didn't get too involved in the offense tonight... still he did a good job of not forcing the issue like u mentioned.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Suns were all bent on stopping Amare so they kind of stayed home and that's why we mostly stayed out on the perimeter and bombed them to death. The High post with a spread floor is Mike's favorite new thing. He doesn't even need us to run the PnR cuz we can iso STAT and he can just J on people now that he's so efficient from there. It's a pick your poison deal and the Heat are the ones that caused Mike to use that set. THe Heat did so much packing of the paint and overplaying the PnR that it forced us to go to this set and we've gotten good at it. Felton can still use the PnP and take open J's without worrying about driving into Doubles. We become a mostly jump shooting team, except for Chan who can slash along with Fields. It's just works. being able to hit from 3 is what also makes it all work.

The D has been good too, even tho the Suns didn't test is much.

Rations gets in and hits a three and let's the game come to him, AR blows it and you continue to defend. Is he a relative or something? The kid is horrible.

Let's go Knicks. That's amare

Love this team... with a little help, we're right in the mix for a title, straight up. Stay patient Donnie... our time is coming, and we're on the come up, big time.

I love it. But it's funny and you can tell they don't know Knicks history because there won't ever be another 15 on the Knicks...WHAT NUMBER WOULD MELO WEAR?

Good game. Swiss cheese defense made for easy buckets. Carter should try to model his game after LJ's game when he was in New York. Use what speed he has left to use pivot moves to post up defenders, move the ball around, and knock down the occasional three. He still is trying to play like vintage Carter.

Looks like Mosgov already has a rep with the refs. He's complained a bit too much for a rook at times and the refs talk to each other about player's tendencies. He didn't looked so scared of Lopez, he needs to channel that into his game cause he still looks scared running plays.


I don't believe AR is going to figure things out fast enough in NY. He is still one step behind the curve (at least). I don't know if its possible but I would bet that AR would benefit from a year playing in europe but I doubt the Knicks are willing to be that patient, same could be said of Randolph.

Id say depending on who we sign/trade for in offseason, Hill may be a player who finishes career in NY.

He was the guy getting screamed at starting at the first exhibition game. For a guy with communication difficulties D'Antoni has been very direct and obvious in his disapproval of Randolph. I made a mistake with my previous post. The point I was trying to make is that D'Antoni has a lot more patience and willingness to work with and coach a 24 year old free agent than he has a former lottery pick that has tremendous talent, is only 21, has put up tremendous numbers and was a target of the gm.

Yeah, tell that to Landry Fields. Stop making generalizations about the coach that are flt out untrue simply because your homeboy doesn't have what it takes to get off he bench and contribute.

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