Why have a big frontline if you are regulated to jumps shots...

We don't have an offense that helps to create great shots at the basket. This is just as the Suns announcer just said a PREDICTABLE offense. No flow or deception to throw off the Defense. It's just horribly easy to defend what we do. We can't run with teams like this so we have to slow the game down.

One team plays with energy and the other is lethargic..Knicks need to make the Suns defend the rim but they are letting them off the hook trying to match their jumpers...It's how the game has changed..

is there anyone watching this game who thinks felton is not one of our biggest problems other than the coach?

I think you have to put Tyson on that list. D is bad, jumper is weak and tonight he had his dunk blocked by a guy a foot shorter. Nice game for a guy making 15 mil who is quick to let everyone know what is wrong with everybody else.

a) Coach is clueless.
b) Prigs is old, really a backup (that's kind of an excuse). But Felton is just an atrocious point guard. At least Prigioni tries to run a team. Felton can't. Making him the PG for this team was dumb.
c) JR's frustrating but he seems to be trying within what he can.
d) Hardaway, Stat and Shump are players that work best in systems.
e) I know Melo's limitations. He doesn't have the court vision. He also needs a good system.

Fire Woodson. Yesterday.

Felton doesn't know how to read defenses. Therefore he can't adjust or move the ball in a way that exploits defenses. And he doesn't know how to play defense. There are backup point guards better than him. Should've traded for one of those backups.

Seems like Tyson checked out a long time ago. He's no longer consistent with his effort, but I think part of that is the awful defense this team gets from the PG spot. How many times do you want to have to cover for Felton and Prigs just getting their doors blown off? It's also having to keep playing this awful defensive scheme Woodson uses.

On top of that this offense is dreadfully simplistic. Any team with a decent defensive scheme will shut down what we do, cuz it's so stagnant and dumb.

The team is much better with KMart at the 5. Hopefully Phil moves Tyson for something.

Just look at how clumsy we look on offense! We have to work WAY too hard to get a good shot off.

Then we make all the wrong moves on D. SMDH!
