Back from quick visit. I don't like posting from iPhone.
Preseason and Met game got me 25th row, center court "silver club" that run $280 each for $66 each!!! Got them Monday morning.
Garden was full, but expensive seats were less so. No doubt sold, just not attended.
Was not happy to see KP sitting. Did not see melo in warmups but he came out.
Always a treat to be in the Garden!!! $11.95 for a Guinness? Well worth it!!!!
Im sure most of you have discussed the game in length and Briggs has his concerns.
Philly seemed like a D-league squad but they played well.
Im not much on impressions for preseason. but:
Jose looked fine.
Melo is quick. His shot looked good and he moved great.
RoPez. I like the easy shots he got and he moves good.
Grant. A bit lost at times and triangle shy but he's a rookie.
Clearanthony: He moves good, looks quick, had a nice assist on a break but im not sure he really belongs out there.
O'Quinn: Dude is big.
Dwilliams: Reverse dunk in traffic was awesome. He is has filled out and is very much a 4. Got hot and had a 4pt play. When he cooled off he was ok.
Can't complain, Knicks won against a no name team and no doubt knicks were trying many things out there so its hard to comment on how Fish did what the game plan was.
Hit Ben's deli for Pastrami before game and was very happy!!!
Had a great room at the Lotte NY Palace with a view of St Patricks! Dinner at the Sea View Grill in Rockafeller Center and the flights were all on time!
