Melo played bad because he let Garnett get in his head. He really, really showed poor character today.

This is not just another loss. This is a disappointing loss because it shows we can't "handle the heat". This is tough, physical, playoff basketball and we have been psyched out and punked in every matchup with a team like this.

Melo was shooting poorly before he and Garnett got into it..BTW we did handle the Heat, twice...

True but he did start taking pretty dumb shots and tried to beat KG himself down the stretch. Im sure he'll learn from this though

Yeah he took some hero ball type shots. If he would have run the offense he probably would have got a better shot or gotten Kidd or JR open shots. Which they were hitting during the game. Celtics will not allow ISO ball to beat them. Why Lebron's Cavs always had trouble against them.

Carmelo has left the building and won't address the media tonight, the Knicks said.

The Heat have lost to the Wizards and Pistons and Bucks so being that we beat them twice isn't saying that much especially when the Rockets blew us out twice and we've lost to the Bulls twice without Derrick Rose.....

So you can play semantics with the wins and losses all day everyday

And tonight, The Thunder lost to the Wizards. It's the NBA, no game is guaranteed during the reg. season.

I have no idea what it is but he usually plays big against us. It's like he relishes every opportunity to do us dirty. He could be 100yrs old and still drop daggers against this team.

yep.. he just gets amped up for us...

Loses happen in the NBA, that's basketball for the clueless one's.

Off to make some dinner for the family while the likes of TKF run wild and celebrate our loss.

My point exactly that's very equivalent to us losing the Kings. Trying to hang our hat on beating the Heat twice just isn't carrying much weight at the moment.

Hang your hat on being 12 games over .500.

WTF are yo talking about! He said we cant handle the heat, meaning we cant beat or play with the elite in big games or playoff type games(thats how I interpreted it). I brought up the Heat to point out that we can play and beat the elite in this league. We also beat the Spurs in San An in an intense environment. Not hanging my hat on anything. My response was a rebuttal to what the poster said, nothing more, nothing less.

And if your point was "its the nba, no game is guaranteed..." then why not just say that in stead of being a smart ass....Of course any team can lose to another professional team...

This! Killer time and time again. Never gets the ball to Amare. Bonehead!

Garnett tuned him out and Melo kept yapping, and missing shots.

Then Pierce did his thing.

NYMentality, You wait until 10:15 to feed the family?

Hey we lost and Melo had an off game. He can only learn from this. Melo ain't afraid to bang heads. We shall learn from this. Paul Pierce have our number.

i love his game. he is the truth.

he's a world class talent and a HOFer - but you love his game? and you call yourself a Knicks fan? did you also love Reggie Miller's game? Alonzo Mourning's? smdh

yes i love his game. i also love garnett's game. yes i am a knick fan. it's possible to do both.

Papabear Says

Why don't you just carry your butt over and be a damn Celtics Fan. It's one thing to be upset because we lost be it seems to me you are loving it. Melo has save more game this season than lost so why don't you just be a Kevin Garnet and Paul Pierce Fan. I hat them both. Melo showed some heart and I am glad he stood up to Garnet who is one of the dirtiest players in the league. Right now it seems we have more haters on this forum than Knicks blue blood. It's getting me sick.
