Woodson says he's not making any changes to the starting 5. #Knicks

in case anyone was curious

woodson sucks offensively. if it wasn't for felton and kidd taking the ball out of melo's hands, woodson would love to have melo post up 1 on 3 or isiah-esque top of the key 3-pointer play all day.
i know i am exaggerating a bit but his stubbornness is ridiculous. if we had the best nba record or close to it, it would have been justified.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

Danny Granger is officially ruled out for tomorrow's game. We're 1-1 against Indy this season, and during our 1 loss against the Pacers, Carmelo Anthony was out (suspended due to the K.G scene). We lost by 5 points. During our first game against Indy, we had Carmelo and won by 11 points. Melo himself put up 26 points and 9 boards with 0 turnovers during our win against Indy.

I love our chances against Indy come tomorrow night. Shumpert gets a go at Indy for the first time this season. They're once again without Granger. We're 1-0 with Melo against these guys. And during our loss against Indy, that was only Stoudemire's 5th game back.

This is a must win regular season type of game. Not only is it important to build some momentum/confidence coming out of the all-star break, but we're looking at a difference of either .5 ahead of Indy (with a loss) or 2.5 ahead of Indy with a win.

Between not knowing what the team will look like tomorrow night and Woodson saying despite mulling over changing the starting lineup the past week he decided to stick with the same pathetic group he's been trotting out there because they are 8-5. Eventhough those 8 wins were all against losing teams. So I'm not expecting much tonight

Also Shumpert has another ineffective game and he is as good as gone. He has a break out game and everyone will flip if he's traded. No win situation

IMO the knicks don't do anything outside of dealing for a Mozgov/Ridnour and/or claiming a big off of waivers as they begin to shake loose

Crazy that Kurt Thomas sees the need to shake up the starting lineup yet the coach refuses to

Woodson has seemed tense since #Knicks have returned from Break. During first practice Tuesday, Kurt Thomas entered
media scrum for several seconds before finally blurting out a question as a gag. "Coach, do you think you'll change the starting lineup,'' Thomas asked. Woodson asked him to repeat the question. Kurt did. Woodson didn't crack a smile and answered, "I don't think so. I like what it's been.'' And that was that. It's all business for Woody, who realizes what a pivotal two-game road trip this is, with rugged Indy and surprisingly hot Toronto on tap Friday.

OK good Hahn and Wally know more about the inner workings of this team than we and a lot of the media do. They just hinting at Woodson sticking to the pathetic small lineup only until they get 1 of 2 bigs back. That being Sheed and/or Camby. And playing Melo primarily at the 3 because rebounding has suffered with him at the 4.

I'm sure they can't wait for Kidd to be removed from the starting lineup like the rest of the country is as well

If I had to guess Sheed will return Friday or at home Sunday

This is a crucial game, Indy is right on our tails in the standings.

Knicks just 1-5 in 6 games vs. teams ranked in Top-3 in DefEff (Bulls, Pacers, Grizz). NY needs to show they can win slowed down slug fests
