Nevertheless, after GM Scott Layden added much-needed size in the offseason, the Knicks are No. 1 in the league in defensive field-goal percentage, holding teams to 34.2 percent. Don Chaney's Knicks are just slightly ahead of Jeff Van Gundy's Rockets (34.7). The Knicks are third in points allowed (79.7) but that's skewed because one game went overtime. They blocked 10 shots Monday, surpassing their season high last season of nine.

Didn't somebody named Gony say under VANDUMMY LEADERSHIP the knicks were better defensively? STATS DON'T LIE!

Well, well, trash talking after 3 games! I know the Rockets will still be there leading the league in D in the end. What about NY? The Rockets are 3-1, what about NY? The Rockets stomped the NEts in NJ, last night.

Let's not make this a comparison of NY and Houston.

Wow Playa...2 games against Orlando - and you are claiming NY has the best D in the league? Just wait till they play the big guns from the west and then we will see what this team is made of.

playa - since you keep bringing up JVG and Francis, put this in your pipe and smoke it.

"He [Van Gundy] told me he wasn't going to play me the rest of the game if I kept acting like a fool," Francis said of his halftime chat with his coach. "He calmed me down big time, told me winners come back the second half and forget the first half."

It is called C-O-A-C-H-I-N-G.

Sounds like they are on the same page huh?

Since playa only posts negative things about JVG, here is a positive one.

I was waiting for someone to come here today without putting an asterick next to the game last night between Houston + NETS. Even Vandummy admitted that key players weren't there for the NETS( ROGERS,HARRIS+K-MART) and he didn't try to comapre his healthy team against a banged up Nets TEAM. I watched the game and Houston played really well as a team. YAO MING wasn't that much of a factor and the Houston guards ran the show. Funny how Gundy wants the offense to go thru YAO, but last night with Francis+ MOBLEY's style of PLAY, run pass and shoot they outlasted the Nets. LOL VANGUNDY SHUT UP AND GO FOR THE RIDE.

playa2, I have to ask. Is there something personal that JVG did to you? This constant rants against JVG is pretty amazing.

That's cool.

FYI. I like the other quote from Barkley...

what is NY's ranking today? They gave up 106 and at least 45% to the Bucks!

Gony stop tripping , the problem was strategy last night!
We had THE BUCKS IN CHECK AND IF YOU ARE HONEST YOU KNOW IT.


Chaney changed the defensive strategy to go up against a smaller lineup, which is why he played Mutombo only 4 minutes in the third quarter, 15 total. "We cannot just play the team because they are small, we have to go big and take advantage of it," Mutombo said. He saw a possible reason for the strong first half and the struggle in the second: "I was on the bench."
