We missed pablo. I know a lot of people like felton's heart (I do too) but he cant run an offense like pablo can. Gotta give Boston credit they really made it tough for us but i also think we will play much better in Game 2

All this miss Pablo bus is ray hate on the low. You guys miss a damn man that plays 15-17 min at the most in a game. Did u miss Pablo when ray was hurt for 12 games and the offense sucked. What about a player that averages 3 points and 3 assists do you guys long for so much? When Pablo is in the game 75 % of the time he plays the 2 anyway. The times he does bring it up the floor ray is telling him what play to run. How did Pablo look vs Charlotte? How did the o look then? I mean it's baffling how some would overlook ray's solid play for most of the season to try to elevate a lesser player. All this"we miss Pablo" stuff is funny because you guys know his ass would b firmly plantedon the bench in the 4th quarter so cut it out. Pablo brings good things to the table but don't try to denigrate ray. Who even knows if Pablo would have been just as nervous as cope and shump.

The Knicks need to keep them shook like that for the whole series.

I have a feeling both those fookers will come out swinging in game 2

None other than the Knicks coach has mentioned that the team has missed Pablo.

If you'd like to offer your basketball sense to discussion, please do, but no need to put words in other people's opinions, especially when they are wildly off the mark.

Did I say the Knicks team did not miss Pablo? What I said is some people comment on missing him under the guise of hating on Felton. This is fact. Don't tell me I don't watch the games. I watched game 1 three times from my dvr along with analysis, interviews etc. As far as being off the mark and peoples opinions you can go no further than the game thread with multiple ppl bashing Ray even when he was playing solid (besides losing avery bradley on cuts while doubling pierce). Is it wildly off the mark to say that Pablo does not play in the last 8 minutes of the fourth quarter unless we are in a blowout? Do you think Pablo can pry the ball out of Carmelo's hands when he is dead set on going one on one? You can call for the ball and try to reset the offense but no one on this damn team, kidd included, can get the ball from melo with under 10 seconds on the shot clock. The job of the pg is to initiate offense and put guys in the best position to score effectively and that's what I see Ray do time and time again. It did not help that Cope and Shump looked nervous out there and that affected the offense negatively as well. Granted, the ball movement was not as fluid in the first half and parts of the 3rd quarter but that was mostly due to melo and jr trying to take things into their own hands, rookies feeling jitters and Tyson being a shell of himself and rusty. I want Pablo back as well and he helps but I also love what Ray gave out there and he is a legit point guard for this team. Some of you will just not give him credit though.
