Gallo looking for early offense!!! This is how they're supposed to play.

How do you combat that with the triangle?

There are rules for that! You read the overplay and move yourself or the ball or call for a screen but you don't get stagnant!


That's the problem. There's not enough screens to free up players and create space in the triangle. I'm not a triangle expert by no means, but it's definitely not supposed to be so predictable. They've been running it much better lately but it still really frustrates me at times.

Galloway is more effective with a faster pace. Not so great in half court these days, and yes I know he just hit one.

It's the players just going brain dead and not being aggressive!

What a crappy game and a reminder of the current sorry state of two marquis franchises in the NBA. It's such a shame. Both fan bases dying for a winner.

Btw, with how poorly the Lakers are shooting, I think it's def possible to hold them under 60 for the game lol

The crowds have been really up for the Knicks as the opponent on this trip. Better that than fans treating us like a joke. Makes the losing a little more manageable knowing that it means something to beat the Knicks, not much though.

Way to close the quarter: Rolo to D Will on the break for the jam to finish the half.

I've been saying for the last week and even started a thread making the case that he should be starting. He does so many things out there.

All the Knicks have to do is push the ball and they get easy buckets every time.

Nice to see that Gallo found his jumper again in LA. It was MIA for a while.

The more we move to younger more athletic players the better! They simply MUST push the ball looking to score 1st and only if nothing's there setup in Triangle!

I'm too adapted to the South now. I'm passing farms and animals on a regular basis. Can't go back now 😛
