And while switching can be good at times our switches resulted in grant guarding dirk???

Tonight we needed offensive and defensive intensity. Poor coaching job.

yes. LT is much better offensively than gallo

gallo is playing terribly stupid basketball.

I still trust Gallo more in the clutch and he is a more proven shooter.

Despite, Gallo's poor shooting he is still getting ast, rebs, & steps in limited minutes.

Even if you are right...and their coach has a lot more experience-

Does it really "pain" you to say this??

It pains me because I know how much money we owe this dude

Not for the whole game. We need to find a trade for a better passing big. Seraphin is not that dude and so is Rolo

or ... throw the triangle in the garbage and lets play some damn ball.

Have to agree. Among most coaches, this type of offensive scheme is best when talent level is low. Or at the Y. But best when you have Jordan and Pippen or Kobe and Shaq on the team. Which at that point, doea not mattwr what you run. Really tired of slowing down the pace only to give Rolo or Seraphin the ball for decision making. Think running lots of pick and rolls with anyone and KP mixed in with post ups for Melo and Aflalo would be more successful. But must say, our defense in first 3 quarters lost us the game today. And we need more talent on the bench. Hopefully we continue to build the roster in months and years to come. Was not a fan of the Lopez signing, Felt it was a knee jerk signing after missing on Monroe. Would have preferred our 2 back up centers from last year and using that extra money on bench.

At the very start of game
MAVs with Aged star Dirk whom is playing well past few seasons,
Knicks were running up and down and up and down court getting open for solely jumpers.

Little detail to Defense, just getting back on offense end to run few sets for open man.

None or little penetration OR adjustments. Dallas had really good shooting game and their offense
let them have few chances on d' end of court though Knicks missed lots of shots.

All in all Derick Fisher team didn't seem ready to play harder/compete at outset set tone of game.

As if Fisher was telling Fans at beginning cause of MAVs/Dirk rep
OR whatever he and team played like they didn't expect to win game in first place!

There you have your/our coach!
putrid showing at home gym as usual

I felt that his attention drifted from his man at times. Knicks also seemed confused on their assignments on more than one occasion.

Part of the learning process. This is where watching game recordings will help him.
