Novak has been shut down and Jr Smith is the only guy who can create his own shot. Everyone said I was crazy when I said our bench sucks. Well Miami continues to bring guys who contribute on both ends. We dont and we are getting killed because of it. We cant afford to take Melo and Amare out. Miami can sub whoever out.

He's shooting because he has the greenlight to do so and that's all he knows.

First game was over in the 2nd quarter,second one was over in the 3rd.

We would at least have a competitive series against Chicago,I'm sure about it.
This way we're not even close to winning a game.

10 points isn't a blowout, and game one we know exactly how it got broke open.

Keep thinking what you want about Chicago.

They play with 100% effort all game, and against us they actually are better without Derrick Rose.

That has been proven.

But Melo wasn't putting up huge numbers (in blowout wins) so obviously that had to come to an end.

And I really don't want to get started on Melo. Don't you make me.

Come on guy, the offense isn't bad, definitely wasn't tonite.

Please tell me who youd rather taking shots. Theres a reason he has the green light. I guess we should let Bibby be our leading scorer. The score would be 100-3. We dont have a talented roster. Melo, Amare and JR are our only scorers.


Btw Amare just cut his hand open punching shit out of frustration and may be out the next game.

Still all games against Chicago were close while all games against the Heat this season were decided by 8 points or more (Heat are 5-0 against us this season).
And this was pretty much a blowout. Since the middle of 3rd quarter they were leading by 10+ and we didn't even come close once. Game was over like 15 minutes before it should have been over.

Let's face it. We can't even have a close game against the Heat,let alone win a game.

I don't care if Chicago tries hard. We played much better against them and we would have a much better series.

Just admit you're wrong. How many convincing losses against the Heat we need to have until you realize it ?

Amar'e, x 1,000. And then Chandler, who will draw fouls. Attack them down low. And when they adjust to that, you throw it out to Novak and JR and expose their three point defense. There are ways to beat this team. The Melo way isn't it.

[Rameek]

So the Knicks are losing because of what they arent doing offensively and defensively. If the Knicks do everything right they would win?

[franchize]

The fact that you support Dantoni speaks volumes. Im beginning to wonder if you are secretly Mike Breen Scooter You cannot even hide your bias now.

How can you even say that with a straight face? They're running around out their like a bunch of headless high schoolers. It says everything about our offense and our coaching when the sole difference between a good offensive game and a bad offensive game is whether or not Melo shot the ball well.

I'm biased against bad basketball, and therefore am biased against Mike Woodson.

If you have a problem with what I have to say, it's because you have a problem with the truth.

If the Knicks made a few relatively simple adjustments, it would be a more competitive series.

We won one game against Chicago and it took them missing 4 straight free throws an absolute heroics from Melo.

There is nothing to admit.

Both teams are vastly superior, and it is far unlikely to win against either one.

I've already said why I wanted the Heat over Chicago.

Do I have to plaster a billboard for you?

Meanwhile, dumbass busted his hand wide open punching supposedly a locker and may be out.

[Scoooter]

Outside of Linsanity and the stretch of games after D'antoni but before Amar'es back, every game we win takes absolute heroics from Melo.

That's how you know there's a problem.

So if Dirk, Durant, Kobe shoot awful in a game do you think those teams have a better shot to win or not?

Stop being sarcastic with this, the team didn't lose because they couldn't score, and they didn't turn the ball over much.

The team doesn't defend anymore, and they haven't for a while now.

Thats all I'm saying... Nothing that has occured this season against the Heat showed me its a good match up against the Heat.
