Now I will say this, he doesn't deserve a video tribute either and I hope MSG isn't planning one.

Agreed. No video tribute. Unless he was retiring. Think it will be emotional for Melo as he really wanted it to work here and bring a chip. Think we can win this though. Westbrook has been chucking all year and all they have in team chemistry is Iso ball. Melo was shooting like 70% last night with 20 points at the half (First time in a long time) only to not get the ball much in second half and watch westbrook freeze him out for most of it. Think Melo is seeing first hand the problems with not involving other team mates on offense. I predict Knicks by 14. OKC may be out of gas after last nights game.

Think we have a very good team right now. This may be the best all around team since the Ewing days. We just have so many guys that are playing at a high Pro level. Hitting the open man, hitting open shots and defending. Good to see. It is also a good sign that we continue to play well with KP and Timmy out. Makes those role players get more comfortable and more reps.

FYI. Good to see NBA TV showing Knicks a little love with game replays leading up to the OKC game. Chicago 2012 on now.

I am going to the game tonight. MSG is going to do a video tribute. Melo deserves one. He came here when no one else wanted to. It wasn't perfect but Melo gave us a lot of highlights,. Again its the players/ talent that we never surrounded him with. He embraced NY as home, he loved the city.We owe him some respect.

Video tribute. Are you guys out of your mind. Just announce his name and move on. Save the tributes for winners and players that have done great things with the organization. You just can’t be giving every Tom, Dick and Harry a freaking video tribute.

That is a great game to go to. Agree about the tribute.

Adams is out tonight. Concussion protocol. Hopefully this helps Kanter.

Well Adams out means Kanter can flourish hopefully. He struggled against him opening night.
