^^ Yeah big game for NY with the ATL loss. Need to pick up the easy ones because there are difficult ones coming up. With Kyrie hurt, Dion has to be contained as he becomes a primary scorer for them.
Andddd those are our Knicks. Terrible collapse to end the game. Woodson found no way to stop the bleeding, Melo forced everything in the 4th, and nobody else could make a shot Jarret Jack toasted Felton for 30+ points
And that folks, is the end. Season is pretty much done now. Last 10 games are BRUTAL, these are the games we had to win, especially when ATL loses.
This is probably how the meeting with Phil is gonna go in April: "But I know what a triangle is. I'm not biased against shapes, I don't need no circles, I love triangles. TRIANGLES ARE MY FAVORITE, my bed is a triangle, LISTEN TO ME!!! HEllo? HELooo??" - Mike Woodson
"Triangles are a big piece of my daily routine. I'm not just going stand here and kick triangles to the curb if they can help the team. Beno is the one who brought circles and squares to the team meetings. He has to know not to do that" - Mike Woodson
Why is it that random dudes suddenly choose to turn into all stars against us? Jack was making some crazy shots down the stretch. We should have won though. But the season isn't close to over yet. Atlanta could go on another losing streak. 3 games in 12 is doable. It's neck and neck with Phoenix now.
Atlanta lost to Phoenix. Knicks are 2.5 back with 12 to play. They have a very winnable game tonight and who knows the Phil Jackson - LA connection might play a factor in their motivation. It's a must win!
Anyone watching what has happened? This is so funny. For a team that was on playoff life support they aren't even trying. Just pull the plug. Just a shameful performance.
Woodson said after the game that it was one of the worst quarters the team has had since he was a coach. I guess what he's trying to say is that the team is getting worse under him
He also said that since he has been the Knick coach..no team has EVER scored 51 points in a quarter on them. Had a little Rex in him...first time this has happened..first time that has happened. The only difference is that usually Rex was accurate. What woody failed to say is that no knick team had EVER allowed 51 points in a quarter...and no Laker team had EVER scored 51 points in a quarter. Now for the Knicks...seems like a decent feat....looking at the Lakers and their past teams, we can fully understand that this was the worst quarter of basketball any Knick team had ever played..ever. The defense played by Felton/Smith was some of the worst defense any guard has ever played in the NBA..ever. I would cut Felton after that game..just cut him. At least try to have some dignity that games like that will never be tolerated. Felton is such a piece of crap punk..who before the game said that this was a playoff game..cant lose. I could care less about that cap...send a message and just cut one of the worst people and player ever to put his fat ass in a Knick uniform.
Updates in bold above. 2 games back of ATL, 3 back in the loss column. Kyle Korver's health basically decides if ATL wins or not. Not deep enough or good enough to win games when a player is injured
