After reaching the .500 mark at 5-5 and making nice strides, we come out tonight with this defensive stinker... This is what upsets me fellas and really has ruined the knicks "high" I was on the past week or so..

This team has to be one of the worse teams defensively in the league, I mean we made matt Bonner and palacio look like NBA players, Damn that upsets me. We don't challenge shots, I mean we will walk away from a 3 point shooter to double a guy who does not have the ball, and we do this often!! We don't chase around screens, and we don't block shots, this is unacceptable... This defensive effort has to stop...

another thing the knicks need to realize, they seem to get down as we fans do when the other team seems as if they can't miss, like toronto did tonight, well guess what. probably 90% of us here who ball can hit wide open shots if we are left alone 100% of the time, what do you think professional players will do.. and when you let the other team get a 20 point lead on you, of course they are going to be more relaxed shooting, I mean hell you are not defending them!!! I am suprised I didn't see toronto attempt any over the shoulder hook shost from half court...

People say don't trade, don't trade, but fellas we need to. Nazr has been great down low, so has KT, but we need to substitute one of them with a true big down low, who can get easy hoops close in, draw in defenses and defend the hoop.... This is a must, and if losing sweetney is a requirement, then it must be done....

I hope we can come out saturday and whip the raptors azz, that team is really not good, and we got humilated tonight.....

I guess you didn't read my scouting report, I watch all the raptors games on tv since hockey isn't on anymore!

I have been watching the raptors regularly and this team has a great work ethic. One thing is they have great stamina in the 4th qtr. Bosh is gonna be a problem along with this guy name Bonner. He takes pf outside and consistently knocks down jumpers. Marbury matchup with Skip will be a classic, Marbury is much stronger than him but skip knocks down 3's at a drop of a hat. Toronto swing men are strong and loves to slash, Nazr + Kurt better get their feet set to draw offensive fouls. I really can't see us winning this game unless we out rebound them. Last night,the wizards had the Biggs to get boards over the raptors67-43 -haywood,jamison,jeffries and athletic guards hughes and arenas. This will be a stiff test for us tonight, unless we rebound better than the raptors. Tonight you will see how much Toronto fans "really boo Carter". I was gonna go to the game1/1/2 hr ride but I have to prepare for thanksgiving

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Y'ALL see all that media hype garbage about VC playing and the crowd booing him. We have nobody who can stop Toronto slashers at the hoop, this is why we nned a big man and then we can contend. Toronto is gonna show Lenny a thing or two tonight with VC proving all the doubters were wrong.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Don't get too high after a win or too low after a loss. It's too long a season with too many ups and downs for that.

yeah it's a long road, but we shoudln't fool ourselves, as good as our backcourt will be, as good as nazr and KT will play, we still have a glaring hole in the middle. it's just that when our opponents don't push where it really hurts, we can get away with that.

btw we also need houston shooting.

I told you guys this team will drive you nuts. Great game one day, crappy the next. We are a very inconsistent ball club, and we aren't quite near championship calibre yet.

Any 45 win team would if you follow the team closely because there are so many ups and downs.

Yeah, I had that little Knicks buzz too. Oh well, we can redeem ourselves on Saturday.
For now, enjoy the day. Be with your family, eat some turkey, watch some football. Then just survive Friday and you may get back some of that good feeling this weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving guys.
