It was good to see someone finally stick up for our star player. What I dont understand is why Melo punched Hawes in the head when all he was doing was boxing Melo out. All Tyson saw was Hawes going after Melo so he jumped in

Reaction to the elbow to the face while getting boxed out; watch the beginning slowly. Even on the Philly radiocast, they mentioned Hawes trying to clear out Melo with his arms. I read somewhere you're supposed to box out with your azz and legs. And Melo's been reading all the posts on here about how soft and whiney the Knicks are. Our StarMooby ain't taking that crap from the likes of Spenser Hawes. Cheerio, mate! |

OK just watched it closely for the first time. Hawes was wrong. I was listening to WFAN this morning and Mark Malusis who despite being a Syracuse alumn and former Melo fan who has been killing Melo since he arrived in NY was thrashing Melo on the radio. Saying how could be punch him in the head. He is lucky he didn't get tossed. Michael Kay said the same. Not one caller defended Melo

What happened? Hawes I heard got in someone's face, there was a ruckus, what happened in the eyes of our good fans?

I didn't like how Tyson reacted, in fact I didn't like the whole sequence. Carmelo could have been suspended for hitting Hawes, missing Carmelo is big every game is crucial at this point because of seeding. Then Tyson, comes with that fake tough guy **** and shoves Hawes. Just play ball!
Remember Derek Harper fighting JoJo White, they were both ejected but who was more important to their team? |

Hey, even the Philly talking heads the next day were saying, "that's what you get for being Spencer Hawes..."
Melo took an elbow to the face. He didn't like that. Understandable, but like others posted, I didn't particularly care for him smacking Hawes in the back of the head and possibly getting tossed for a few games. They said on the radio broadcast that Tyson approached Hawes after the game was over and made nice. |

This victory did not impress me. We almost managed to let them back in the game.
