Thats all, eliminate stephs penetration, make JC shoot ill-advise shots, then beat them down court for a easy bucket.

Steph doesn't run down court, he waits until the D sets up, then tries to break his man down ( SUUCCESFUL 60% of the time), and when he does run, the rest of team is creeping, we hardly ever get easy buckets.

This team is brain lock against the zone, primarliy because KT ( our pf) is probably the best perimeter guy we have, and the pick and roll doesn't work nearly as well in zone coverage.

Notice when we play zone how many offensive boards we give up.

playing a zone against the knicks is a horrible idea, marbury is a good 3 shooter, not great but good, Crawford is good 3 shooter when he is givin a shot he will hit but when he is erratic it is difficult to call him good. Remember last year's playoff game against the nets, that proved Marbury's shooting ability, he dosen't shoot he is like Wade in ways. He drives

What must happen with team right now is simple: go out and find a 2 or a 3 that can shoot the rock from the 3line, and if possible find a shot blocker from somewhere to help our frontline.....We are a horrible team and Nazr and Kurt are not cutting it

Frankly, I do believe that Isiah is in Europe searching for a deadly shooter that can come in and be effective immediately....I don't know if it is possible to sign someone just out of no where, but if it is, Isiah will make it happen.....Darius Rice??? is this kid out of college yet????

yea he was on the nets during the preseason and had a good shooting game against us and Kutulay just got waived and he was raining 3's both games when the US played turkey.
