31-31 after 1 in Orlando. Shumpert is out for about 2 weeks, so the starting lineup was Pablo, Felton, JR, Melo, Chandler. Pablo banged knees with someone on the Magic and looked shaken up. Hopefully he is ok. He took 3 shots in the 1st Q!
Knicks up 60-53 at half. Melo has 19. Pablo seems to fine as he came back in to play. MWP got some run.
Knicks up 86-79 after 3. Knicks pushed the lead to 11-14 point range, before it fell back down to 7 to end the quarter. Melo has 30 so far
Knicks and Magic going to overtime at 106 all. It was 106-106 with 44 seconds left and Knicks ball. Did they go 2 for 1? No, why should they?
Double overtime in Orlando now. The Knicks had two points taken away on an alley oop because as Tyson dunked it, it his head before clearing the net and popped out of the hoop. Can't make this stuff up
And the Knicks lose. Melo has 44 I think, and hit two HUGE threes late only for the Knicks to lose. The Knicks have a game tomorrow too. Blame falls on woodson. If Amare doesn't play for so long and blow the lead, game never goes to OT. And if we used the 2 for 1 properly at the end of the 4th or end of OT, maybe we still win. THJ is a great offensive player, but his bad defense really hurt the Knicks down the stretch. Can't play him in closing lineups if you cannot find someone to hide him on.
Chris Herring ✔ @HerringWSJ Follow Woodson suggested he wasn't immediately aware of the 2-for-1 opportunities the Knicks had at the end of each of the first two overtimes.
Metta World Peace @MettaWorldPeace 16m I might Fire my agent and sign with CAA sports agency. The coaching staff , front office n some of the players are signed with CAA. joke
Okay so check out Ron Artest's brothers account before he deletes the tweets. Absolutely rips Dolan/Knicks/Woodson https://twitter.com/DMArtestQB Also check out Frank Isola, because he relates to what Artest's brother is saying. https://twitter.com/FisolaNYDN And then Steve Popper joined in on the fun, https://twitter.com/StevePopper
I saw what his brother said. Pretty crazy stuff lol. I can't stand Dolan anymore. I wish there was a way to get rid of his dumbass.
And that's how. Ridiculous. Who's Woodson gonna blame now that Beno's gone? (not 100% official but didn't dress)
This team is atrocious. As Jon Taffer says best.. SHUT IT DOWN!!! I don't even have the energy to want to watch anymore. Hopefully melo stays. Hopefully hardaway makes a jump next year and we stink. The next year we draft in the top 3 and either Ennis, Wiggins, or some other young star stays and we can draft them and pair with melo, hardaway, and what ever 2 FREE AGENTS we get in 2015. Ugh.
I hope I'm wrong, but I'm convinced Melo is leaving. I don't see why he would sign up for this again next year
Where would he go? The Lakers are obviously much better then the Knicks atm LOL. Maybe they have more a FO to trust but outside of that they suck ass if not more then we do
LA & Chicago are the biggest wildcards. Still, hard to see 'Melo leaving. I think there's a decent chance that Shumpert is traded for a 2016 first rounder, than Hardaway, 2015 & 2017 picks to Boston for Rondo.
