Sure they do, but most other teams change a play when they keep coming up short over and over again. If the play was just to free Melo up for a good look I could live with that, but all it is ,almost every time, is inbound the ball to Melo, no screens, no nothing. Doesn't matter if he's doubled. I have a real problem with that and I know I'm not alone.

Look Woody should've put his BEST DEFENDERS IN THE DAMN GAME!!! You put MWP IN AND THJ OR MURRY. Then you foul if they get a mismatch. You don't just let a guy drive and finish.

Wow Washington should be better than they are--they have some legit guards a star in the making in beal a star in Wall a sixth man of the year type in Webster--they could easily start a 3 guard rotation. I even liked their back up Temple who played solid minutes. Not a terrible game by the Knicks what can u say?

was the set play for melo to walk the ball up the court?

What set play?!?! That was a set play?? Come on...That was a 'let's just throw this game down the toilet because we're all a collective bunch of morons.' Soory but that's what that was.

Set play as far as dumping the ball to Melo without any misdirection, or plan b or c.

Re-clarified my feeling above.....AWFUL PLAY, bottom line. Can't get behind that last play at all. Brain fart on Melo 1000000%. This loss is on him -- ashame because he played his heart out as usual -- but in the end he had tunnel vision and lost focus. Beno, Woody, whoever ---- nobody's yelling timeout there??? WTF!!!!??!!!!? WOW..

Why didn't Woodson call it?

That was a dumb decision. The Wiz are very quick and athletic. No way they sneak them with Melo!

I doubt there was a set play. Melo was WALKING the ball up the court. I don't even think Woody is that dumb for the play to be for melo to walk the ball up the court with 7 seconds left.

Exactly....Melo wasn't calling no "play" there at all....LOL....He was frustrated, looked like Beno was yappin' about not getting any help after Beal just whipped right by his geriatric ass for the game winner -- then Melo, frustrated, basically motioned and said -- inbound me the ball -- the rest was history. Brain fart on Melo. My thing is someone's gotta help him and call timeout there.....Even Beno --- you're the PG fella, the general, the QB...AND a veteran...Beno doesn't call a timeout there and restore clarity???? WTF????

WOW.. H O R R I B L E loss.

How many times has Woodson said "that's on me"?

That's a great idea. Blame Melo! So played out. Clearly the play wasn't run since half the team never crossed half court. I actually hope Melo throws one of those losers under the bus.

I blame Woodson way more than I blame Melo. Melo played well and made a terrible decision last play, but Woodson is the one that cost us this game.

You think Doc, Sloan, Phil or Vogal would make a mistake this? The vets hid how bad of a coach he was last year.

Agreed...And whoever's in the game, even someone like a Beno --- YOU DIG THE F IN and say, 'nobody's beating me to the goal.' Watch the replay -- Beno was looking for help there the whole time, before Beal had even started his take. DIG IN THERE!! KEEP HIM IN FRONT OF YOU!!! FORCE HIM MIDDLE!!! You just give up the baseline like that, looking for help, then waving you're arms around yappin' about not getting help?? WTF? HORRIBLE.....Oh yeah, hit the ****ing FT too please.

I dunno what they were trying to run but that couldn't have been it. Once they weren't running anything Woody needed to call timeout. That was awful!

As Larry Brown would say "we just gotta play better"

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.

what I don't get, knicks came out of a timeout from the wiz..

you don't want udrih on wall, Ok, I understand..

but is it any better to have him on the bigger and hot shooting beal?

why not bring in Jr or THJ a bigger player.. it is not like you needed a PG on defense..

and why not call a time out after the score..

it was pathetic watching carmelo slow walk the ball up court to take that kind of shot... rofl.. wow..

Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser............... TKF

Now this is true. Beno should NOT have been in there in the defensive sequence

LOL! Chris Smith is a possibility to play but Murry who is on the roster gets no mention.
