and ill make sure marbury is hawked up full- court every possession to get the ball out of his hands. Ill live with TT amnd craw taking 40 shots because they can only hit 15 of them. KT will get his and Ill make sure to body up on Nazr and move him far enough away from the tin. he can score from more than 5 feet.

It ain't gonna work once Houston gets back.

I'm glad we're seeing so much zone. We'll get better at playing it eventually. But for now, you're right, Briggs, no reason to come out of that zone unless Marbury's on one of his ridiculous shooting sprees.

Which hopefully should be during this road trip. Let's see how much Charolette plays the zone tonight. It should be a good practice to fight it when they do.

We better do something different than what we did last night against the zone of any team!

I want wins!! Go Knicks!

craw shot 17/25 tonight, you can try to take the ball out of stephs hands but we are not playing with shadon anderson at the SG spot, say what you want about crawford but if you leave him alone, he will hurt you... saying he and Tt will only hit 15 shots is a bit ridiculous...

I don't think it is ridiculous at all. Briggs has aa solid point and if what you say is true then teams wouldn't be playing the zone against us. Let's face it. The Knicks have not been shooting well in the 4th when teams run the zone which makes it hard for us to score with other teams late in the game. If we played Defense then this wouldn't be a problem, but our shooting hasn't been well either. Every time T.T shoots you feel like he's gonna miss. And when Crawford shoots you have 40% chance that you wouldn't even use to bet against yourself.

I think in order to solidify your argument, you need more than just 1 game. And in that game that u mentioned; Crawford went cold against the zone in the 4th and T.T didn't do s***.
