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.....
Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............
