are we gonna give 30 points to the 76ers in the first quarter after all that talk of defense?? so far Melo's D has been suspect
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

For once, can we not give up a 30 point quarter?!?

I would like to see a series of stops in this game, please.

Yep. Although at the pace both teams are going, may be tough.

Defense looks better but after KOQ's last dunk, Melo was giving Saric 5 feet on the 3 point line and he drained it. There's no excuse for that; he's a shooter. If I were Horny, I would take Melo out of the game right after that. We need accountability on defense.

27 point quarter allowed! Under 30! Wooohoo! Baby steps, fellas, baby steps. Now let's try to get an under 25 point quarter, or is that asking for too much?

Bad D yes. But he blocked a shot and has looked good otherwise on D. That would be like taking KP out after second score of game when he left Ilyasova wide open for 3.

Bench KP too after the Ilyasova wide open 3 for a couple minutes, then put him back in. These guys need to know that if they don't defend, they're coming out. Condition them this way.

let's be clear that the 76ers do not have 30 points in the first because their big men cant make a layup. they had several opportunities and couldn't convert. i'd chalk that up to 76ers being inept as opposed to Knicks D.

I really have grown frustrated with the Knicks offense!!! They should be putting WAY more pressure on teams but this is STILL based on Triangle but a weaker version of it. Rather than playing FAST and AGGRESSIVE we actually make it easier for teams to defend.

If not for Rose being able to drive on his own, Melo ISO and some offense inside from KOQ we'd have nothing going. We need WAY MORE Screens and picks to get guys easy shots!!! Melo got a nice Down Screen from Noah earlier and he got a great open look. We need more of that.

Only one quarter but they have some fire tonight
You saw this in the Milwaukee game as well

Why we do it only once in 3 games I don't know. But that's the energy this team should always play with.

Point was that you have to look at overall effort more than lapses.

Holiday had a wide open lane and pulls up for a brick, his IQ is also low as hell

Guess what, team is contesting all shots, fighting through screens, getting back on D and we have allowed 27 with under 10 minutes left in 2nd. It's possible to defend, and that's how you win, btw.

Effort. They are giving effort on both sides. This team most of the year gives effort towards offense not much on defense. In the last 10-13 games effort on offence has slipped as well.

So far today we have effort ... that's all I want from the vets.
