Telling stats, the Smeltics hit 21-21 on free throws and the Knicks went 21-26 with Gallinari missing 3 in this game. Hit your free throws and we continue the streak. Let's start a new one on friday.

This game was so close, there's so many ways to spin it.

3 missed FTs by Gallo
Felton losing control late in the game
KG husting for lose balls in the paint
Amar'e missing last 2 shots

Nonetheless, I'm happy.

Come on, 21/26 is fine. Celts were perfect- hard to contend with that

Please don't forget about those non calls with Felton in the act. Unbelieveable what wasn't called in this game

Not complaining, very happy with how the team played...but free throws came back to haunt us. Towards the end they rushed too many possessions and came up empty. We need better composure. Still great game overall, hopefully Gallo continues to drive to the hoop and make things happen.

Missed first half free throws didn't lose this game. You can't assume that the game would have gone exactly as it did if those free throws went in.

I'm not exactly sure if this is the way it works.

Knicks lost by 2, so if Gallo makes his 3 FTs do we win?

I think theres a little more than that to it. Certain circumstances call for different types of plays, and the outcomes end up being different.

We missed 5 right?

Of all people to miss free throws, Gallo. One of like 4 games this year where he'll miss 3, and tonight had to be it.
WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.

82 games in a season..It's okay to be happy or content after a chosen few losses in the season. We were playing the Eastern Conference Champions and gave them all they could handle. As a fan why not be happy with the effort. As a Player of course not.

Feltons circus shot negates a few missed. Ebb and flow of the game.

Our streak included games that we won on the line.

The team stood up

We have played these guys tight even when we sucked (don't you remember the quote feel good loss from al and lee) we needed to win this game and the next 4...We cant be playing guys 40 mins putting up that kinda effort and lose..thats why it's a bad loss

Can't win all 82 games..don't think that's ever been done in NBA history..sometimes a Loss is just a loss. This Loss has nothing to do with previous seasons. Who cares what Al and Lee said in seasons past. we are a 16 and 10 team presently. I do agree with the 40 minutes a game. We need bench support.
