I love Felton, but I do agree that his defense suck right now. Another thing that is starting to bother me about this guy is his emotion. Once he gets emotional he is completely out of his game. For instance, if he misses a few baskets, you can see that he visibly gets upset and typically go on to have a bad game. I think he needs to learn to keep his emotions in check.

Melo flat out won this game for us.
Thank god we tightened up our D in the 4th when it really mattered.

Washington dropping 18 in the first 4 minutes of the 4th was a fluke, our D may be lackluster at times to say the least, but we are the best 2nd half defensive team for a reason, and 1st in the 4th as well.

No offensive play called = equal stupid shot or Air ball 10 feet behind the 3 pt line. Woodson, that is on you buddy.

That possession really pissed me off and could've cost us the game if not for JR

Just win Baby

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.

I'm 44 going on 45 and I just want to see the Knicks win 1championship in my lifetime this organization is not run well. This might be the best position to try for a decade or more. I hope they realize what we have at guard is not going to get it done but Dolan run teams are stubborn to change. Not big changes needed but we need an upgrade at g to even think about competing in the playoffs. Bad mistake giving Lin away for nada. How bad could we use him. He was our guy

RIP Crushalot😞

Another 40+ minute game for Melo. Sad. Also, White should be playing while Shump and kid play 20 minutes each.

For the MVP Tyson sure do take a lot of games off. Tyson "got my popcorn ready" Chandler needs to step up like he did at the end.

The guards need to play better, particularly on defense.

Also Playa posted earlier how Melo owns the Wolves going back to his Denver days. Averages 30+ good call

MDA also didn't really believe in set plays. We are supposedly running the same offense which should be based on sticking to principles, moving the ball, letting player make reads.
MDA was really good at drawing up plays when needed. Coming off of timeouts, MDA was really good at creating plays for quick baskets. I haven't seen Woodson display the same ability. I am not sure why. We play too much playground one on one basketball and may hurt our chances at a title.

What? MDA was officially one of the worst coaches at calling timeout and creating plays from timeouts was not his strong point either.
