For those of you that watched last night, the Knicks were playing in the second half like a different team. They were passing the ball with, as "Clyde" would say, fluidity, and it was really incredible. I couldn't believe I was watching the Knicks, Houston was flourishing, Spree missed a few open shots and if he had hit it would've been over earlier. If the Knicks continue to play like this I think they'd have a shot @ hitting .500, hopefully they will. Also, who else besides me thinks its Thomas's hot start was a key to their win. Not on the surface level that he scored points, but if you go deeper then that he began to draw some doubles and waht not, just like what would happen if the Knicks had a low post presence. Chaney should run some plays to him early, get him some points early like that yesterday and add that with the passing and you got yourself a new style of play.

yeah i agree the ball movement was great and that has to come from the pointguards. And with Thomas i think he is X factor on the team cause you know for the most part spree and allan will get you the points Camby will rebound and get some garbage points so they need Thomas in the post and to score and rebound. But i dont think the Knicks can win much with Camby missing 4 layups a game i love him and all but he needs to make layups. Also spoon is starting to play better and he will help alot on the boards.

Indeed Starbury looked like a 2, and at points in the second half, Penny would bring the ball up and Marbury was playing wing, giving them an odd mix of a 6 7 point and a 6 2 wing. I'm beginning to respect Camby a lot because he keeps saying how he knows he has to play and how they need to win, and I agree, I think he's playing hurt, but he's finally sucking it up and playing.

Ball movement is the key to team chemistry but in key moments of key games, good old isolation, "take him to the hole" offensive system is what we are best at. I stand corrected, defense is what we've been best at, but I doubt that'll continue which is why I want Fratello next season...
