Damn, close game. Felton needed to show up more than the last 2 minutes. The same thing as always, Lebron decided to guard Melo in the 2nd half, the Knicks couldn't find a way to get Melo the ball and their offense stagnated. Felton has to step up there but too late. Oh well it was nice to see the Knicks actually trying defensively and that Shumpert is getting better game by game. Kidd revival was nice too. Go against Kyrie Irving and the Cavs tomorrow. Kyrie had a fun time in December with his mask against us but we got the win. Anderson Varajeo missed a late FT and we won that game. Slightly similar to the Curry game recently, we let the PG go off but sneaked away with the win.
during the half, it was reported that Carmelo had an injury to his side (I guess when he fouled shooting the three), but he looked fine in the second
Definitely us and the Pacers cause fits for the Heat. The Pacers out physical them and the Knicks just drop 3s from everywhere and are annoying. The Heat are favorites, but if they are losing before the finals it's only going to be from those 2 teams.
Yeah he hurt that area against the Raps a few weeks ago. The ribs or something. It didn't look like much pain for Melo. Lebron also landed awkwardly in the middle of the third but seemed fine the rest of the game too.
We had 17 turnovers. We average 11.8 turnovers. There's the major difference and you can't turn it over vs Miami especially.
And if we play like this down the stretch, we are grabbing the 2 seed which is very important. I'd rather Boston or Milkwalkee than ATL or CHI (even withour Rose)
