Can we double check the melo no trade clause

If this team is terrible around the all-star break, I think it'd be possible to convince him of a trade to the Clippers or something.

Should of tanked thi season. They will win 30 games enough not to get a top 5 pick

I wish Phil had simply let Jeff run what he wanted. The team could use more spread offense with no Post player. Bogut is basically ignoring Noah and that would change if you ran a 4 Out set and had Noah setting the picks up top for Rose. The lane would be open and the 3pt shot would be there.

I completely agree. Phil needs to stop trying to coach from the 10th row. And I'm beginning to think that includes having Rambis on the staff at all. I don't think it was JH's decision to have Rambis on staff. Having him there makes it confusing what the line of authority is. Should the players listen to Rambis or Hornacek? Hornacek is Rambis's superior, but Rambis might be telling them what Phil wants... it's a bad situation and Phil is responsible. Good management is putting your team is position to succeed and Phil has given Jeff an ugly obstacle early.

I mean... they're at home, down 3 to a 2-6 Mavs team playing without Nowitzki. They should be ashamed.

Because the Mavs are terrible and injured. Knicks down 3 means they are pathetic.

I have to admit I was wrong about him, at least at this point.

This team is not good enough to lose games like this early in the season. We aren't the sort of team that can go on a big run and win 8-10 games in a row. We need to beat teams weaker than us, at home. Like winning against the Nets. And tonight against Dallas. Have to win these type of games to stay in striking distance for a playoff push late in the season.

I just see no urgency from veteran players like Rose and Melo. These guys are supposed to be in their prime or late end prime hoping to win a ring. You can't come to games with this mind set. Horrible.

Guys ignoring Noah on offense is a huge problem. I think the Knicks need to consider a line up change to get more balance. Not sure what that would be.

You can play with a non scoring big!!! GS did it with Bogut and Jeff with Plumlee. That's why I wanted the Knicks to run more of Jeff's offense! He knows how to do this!
