Game Preview Not Forthcoming.....

[tontoz]

Not looking forward to seeing ...... guard Melo.

[Clutch]

One thing is sure - John Wall is going off.

He always goes ham on the Knicks. I predict at least 35 points.

I think it will be a close game,hopefully Knicks can win it.

[Knicksfever2010]

dalembert is pure garbage. Why do they continue to feed him the ball in the post? He keeps turning it over :(

[tontoz]

Offensive execution at it's finest.

[scott0326]

Wall has missed 2 easy layups... Wow

[rknine15]

Wall has missed 2 easy layups... Wow
:mad:

[Clutch]

Aldrich :bowdown:

Give guy a shot or two,he deserved it with all this hustle.

[Draz]

will tune in after halftime

[Clutch]

Melo not playing well tonight. Knicks need him to have a much better second half.

[imdaman99]

I like the Knicks chances with no Beal for the Wiz. He always torches us, so does Wall but I think they feed off each other against the Knicks. I think most of the games were close between them 2, just Beal would hit some clutch shots to steal/seal the games.

[R.I.P]

Stat doing work!:banana:

[Draz]

airball

[Clutch]

3rd quarter is just :facepalm

[imdaman99]

So much for beating the Wizards. Getting shit on by a career D-Leaguer

[Sarcastic]

Refs called a 3 second violation on Amare. It seemed like only 2.5-2.7 seconds to me. The NBA should have a 3 second clock so that the refs can't mess up that call.

[imdaman99]

Refs are always anti-Knicks. Calling touch fouls when the Knicks play D, but no calls for the Knicks. What a surprise. Blatantly out of bounds on the Wizards and they give the ball to the Wiz, another surprise :rolleyes: And Gooden hits a 3.

Stop hating on the Knicks. What are you saying,that they're not good enough to overcome that call and win the game ?

You,sir,are a Knicks hater.

[imdaman99]

Melo + Smith full on chuck mode. Melo makes 1 and thinks he can just shoot the next 3 even if he bricks them.

The Knicks just suck. Deal with it

[imdaman99]

The Knicks just suck. Deal with it
And the Wizards? Beat a Bulls team without their best player and then lost by 100 points at home to the Pacers.

[Sarcastic]

How is that hating on the Knicks? I am saying they blew the whistle too early, and it wasn't actually a 3 second violation. If the NBA had a clock for that, and it wasn't up to the refs, then the Knicks would have scored on that possession. It really damaged our chances tonight. If we lose because of that call, I might have to make a thread about it.

[Clutch]

This loss is on Melo. I usually defend him but as a star player he should really play better than this. 19 shots for 16 points and 6 turnovers aren't good enough.
Not to mention the stupid plays late in game. Shumpert gets a huge block then hits a three,Knicks have all momentum in the world and then Melo and J.R. start bricking :facepalm

[R.I.P]

Terrible defense! :facepalm

Of course it's hating on the Knicks. You don't have enough trust in the team. If you think they are good you wouldn't have mentioned that.
Now you think they will lose and you're looking for excuses.

Like I said,it seems like you're a Knicks hater. Or a Wizards fan.

Marshmallow Anthony stay chuckin.

Good game Wiz, you should be happy your best player is not some chucker.

[scott0326]

They were inexperienced and beat themselves against Indiana. That won't happen again. Knicks missed playoffs in east lmao

:biggums:
John Wall is a career 43% shooter, Melo is 45%

What does that have to do with shot selection?

[MellowYellow]

everything, shot selection doesn't mater only results

[scott0326]

Great game from Seraphin off the bench tonight

[MellowYellow]

Come back soon Caldy, this team needs you bad.

They lost because of that call. If there was a clock, the Knicks score on that possession, and go on a 20-0 run.

[tontoz]

No Beal, Wall and Nene struggled and they still won a laugher.

Where's Real14?

No Calderon, and Melo had an off-night
Garret Temple had the game of his life.

Not worried, Knicks will beat Detroit tomorrow.

[fsvr54]

Knicks looked pretty good actually in the first half, the crumbled...

sad

I see the potential

D Fish is legit

[ralph_i_el]

DAT wiz D

Wizard party:applause:
Temple benefiting from the Wall-effect. Next thing you know someone is going to be paying him big $$$

[retaxis]

everything, shot selection doesn't mater only results
here is a prime example of how not to run a cohesive team. a coach tells his player first and foremost that shot selection always matters and results are make or miss. If even 2 people on a team thought results is what matters then kiss that team dynamic goodbye. No one will ever give up the rock after that and no one will play defence

[Optimus Prime]

Paul Pierce had Melo shook the entire game. Dat veteran guile. :bowdown:

I must say I'm liking Fish as a coach. He doesn't jump around or act like an overeager fool like most coaches. He just remains a cool customer on the sidelines. :pimp:

Also, the Knicks probably have the best announcing team in the league. Mike Breen is the consummate professional, and you can't get any smoother than Walt "Clyde" Frazier. :cheers:
