Amazing game! The Knicks can probably beat just about anyone this year, especially when we get back to full strength. Kidd and Felton have made this team so much better!
Fuck the heat! Wait till we get back to full strength baby! We are dangerous blowing out the champion 2 times by 20+ points and embrassing them on their own floor ! Aha Cant wait to go to work today
I'm pretty sure they said it was Miami's worst home loss since Lebron came to Miami. That speaks volumes!
petro must be a heat fan, he picked the perfect time to bring this site down! i wanted to butt pat my fellow tgg knick fans.
The thing that is different about this these 3s are that the majority of them are open 3s, not contested. Open 3s will eventually fall even in a cold streak. They are wide open. Wade was -33 I believe if I remember correctly. What a win though. Novak brought out the discount double check, Sheed used it, a couple "three to dome". by the way, anyone follow Shump on twitter? I love how he "tapes" the opponent after every win, #knickstape
I believe they said last year in April was their biggest home loss to Memphis? But I know the amount was 15 pts. Knicks smashed that number. I was watching the game with my son and when they went up by 18 in the 3rd quarter, i turned to him and said its amazing, I still know that this is going to be a game down the stretch. He totally agreed and we were totally wrong. There is so much of a difference with this team compared to past flirtations with being very good that it still hasnt seeped in to the head. This is a very very very good basketball team. One poster above eluded to the nonsense of you live by the three and die by the three. With all the 3's they are taking, I just dont even look at this team as a live by the 3 team. You have Felton driving and finishing like not many guards in the league. You have C.A. who finishes great down low. To top it all off, your center lives under the basket and is shooting 70%. Shooting a ton of 3's and being so wide open because of the unbelievable ball movement are two completely different things. The Knick post game guys said it best. If you shoot 33% from 3, that is like shooting 50% from inside the 3. Makes sense. You shoot 10 for 30 gives you 30 points or shot 15 for 30 from 2 and gives you 30 points. And the Knicks, when moving the ball and with this roster, will shoot better than 33% on most nights. Now being the negative fan, which I can be, heart tells me with two very emotional back to back wins....Chicago screams of let down...and this team will probably prove me wrong...AGAIN.
Tough loss, too many turnovers. Nobody could get hot. Bulls were more prepared to guard a Melo-less offense than the Heat
Yeah can't do that though because they could say "well Rose". Granted we lost 3 of our top 6 players, but they are also missing the guy that makes their team go.
I don't think so, remember his last game at PF against the Bulls? The Bulls would not have shut him down, and he's playing better than he was last year. He also would have openened up so many more lanes and shots [YOUTUBE]mKghHrj982U[/YOUTUBE]
Melo starting, Sheed and Camby not dressing with sore left feet. Amare practiced for 90 minutes on the floor before the game. Supposedly he's getting close. Can't wait for that
Oh and random thought from this game and others, Woodson draws up some GREAT out of bounds plays from timeouts. Big difference from D'Antoni who either didn't draw good plays or the players couldn't execute it. Here Woodson is drawing up open looks and the players are dropping it. Todays game: Melo forced stuff as usual against his old team. Remember when people tried to say we traded too much for Melo after saying we didn't have enough to trade for Melo? Haaaaa. Anyways Kidd game in and played great in the 4th quarter. We started the 4th real slow, letting the lead balloon to 8 for Denver. THen Novak hit a 3 out of the TO then Novak hit another 3. Then Kidd was everywhere making great played , JR hits a big 3, Melo hits some tough shots, and some great hands and D. Denver with late games turnovers undermining them. And the Knicks stay undefeated at home 8-0.
What we missed with Chicago was Melo, and you saw why we needed to make that trade tonight. Melo-drama in the 4th!
He closed the game like a clutch machine. Great out of bounds play the Alley oop to Chandler in the fourth was Amazing. We have a great team without stat, shump cant wait to see this team FULL throttle
Woodson is so good at set plays right after timeouts...That give and go pass from Melo to Kidd to a alley Oop to Chandler was amazing
Yeah Woodson has really improved as a coach. His defense has gotten better but he's also taken a lot from Antoni's system and implemented it nicely to become a very well-rounded coach. Now he just needs to fucking relax when playing against top teams and stop choking the bench all of a sudden. Those guys got you there and you can't just play Melo for 45 minutes because he won't have anything left in the tank when you really need him at the end
