I don't know if Jeff talked to the Knicks about their spacing but it's been PERFECT all night. If they can maintain this kind of spacing from here on they should get back on track offensively. The greater spacing is making it impossible to give help on D and that's making the lane clearer as well.

Watch us F this game up, but this is by far the beat effort on the 2nd night or a back to back all season.

And two straight games where the defensive intensity is better.

Just had a Charles Smith flashback lol I could've sworn Kuz got fouled on that play.

SEE THAT Melo pass to KOQ! That's due to the greater spacing!!! This can't be an accident!!! Jeff must have made this change cuz they've been doing it all night!!!

I'm not. I said at the beginning of this thread that they will look much better with Melo playing his natural position. Bring KP back as starting center and this team still has a shot at the playoffs. Having 2 players playing out of position all season isn't a recipe for success.

Trivia time...I wonder how many times in an NBA game the head coaches have had the same alma mater? Tonight's winner is Iowa State.

I can't believe my eyes. IF they can keep this same spacing and ball movement they can get this ship back afloat. COME ON KNICKS! Don't let up now. FINISH THIS 4TH QTR STRONG DAMN IT.

Don't look now, but the Knicks only allowed 14 points in the 3rd quarter with the Bulls shooting 3-16. Is the D improving the last 2 games? Yes it is.
