You both have points but I'm a give the knicks a little more credit, they played some solid d in the 2 wins. Curry has impacted simply by getting to the line and putting guys in foul trouble. Were still struggling to find post up play consistantly, but we have at least starting to deflect passes and making a few extra hustle plays..

i'll give the team credit for playing better defense, i noticed the same things u did w/the deflecting of passes & guys were fighting harder to front guys & deny passes inside... but our help defense on penetration is still piss poor & horrid... the force field around D Lee will not go away easily.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I thought I saw a headline to the effect that the players didn't want Iverson on the team. Maybe they were so grateful not to have Iverson that they played better, or maybe they made a deal with D'Antoni to give maximum effort if he wouldn't add Iverson to the roster.
