so are we. it's unacceptable.

we consistently give mediocre players career games
 
I don't think we're better than our record. Implementing a player like Melo, & getting max results, can't happen in an instant. We're still learning our offensive rhythm, but I think chemistry between the two was instant and will only get better. Hopefully these guys realize their legacies are at stake here & make the necessary adjustments to what they bring to the table. I'm not talking, or expecting, some Dennis Rodman-like play, but SOMETHING more than what we have now.

I agree on the notion about Amar'e & opposing bum +#* PFs. Is it just me, or does anyone else think that he thinks that by outscoring the opposing player, he handled him? It looks like that is the mode he gets into when an opposing PF gives him a hard time early on in games. Instead of fighting back with his own defense, he just says let me get my J going & possibly yam it from time to time.
 
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but i'm going to be in nyc on Thursday and i'm looking to go to the grizzlies game, but I can only find tickets $60+. is there anyway to get cheaper tickets or is that the cheapest they go?

what section?
 
my only thing with the D that bothers me to a supreme extent is that dudes aint afraid to come into the paint. They aint scared of no one inside

Like uncontested shots bother me but not to that extent. Put up a hand somethin dude!
 
I know I haven't been the only one who's preached that this whole switch everything concept on D is never gonna fly later in April & May (& June

) I've just accepted this is one of Pringles few principles on D so I've stopped freaking out about this #%*+ that I know is gonna go down regardless of anything

This is a great read about yesterday's game on the defensive side: http://nbaplaybook.com/20...hing-screens/#more-12029

Like we've all said, clearly Pringles tells em to switch everything so

We should be playing more zone. I don't care if the other team is shooting well. We seem to be more active in a zone when it comes to loose balls and causing turnovers.
 
drives me crazy to see players leave the knicks and put in work.

Q +!!!$%! Rich leaves us, loses 20 pounds, and learns how to play defense

I hope melo's pride is hurt. He should be getting angry about every single nuggets win. everyone doubting him and talking #!%%. Now take it out on both sides of the court.

If this team underachieves, things are gonna get ugly for him and Amare in the next three years. The novelty will flame out and after a couple first round exits, the fans won't be on their side.

it makes it even worse that pringles and the players do this nodefense crap because most of us grew up watching the hardcore defendingknicks of the 90's

and this isn't because we lost to the pacers. people been consistently hating on dantoni's "defense" for a $$+*%+@ decade. Through countless teams.
 
Heres a way we get better!!!






FIRE D'ANTONI!!!!






honestly why did we give this bum the time or effort to bring our city back to the basketball promise land? His system has never proven to be successful, the Knicks are the 07 Phoenix Suns 2.0, we need to fire him, we cannot win with him, especially now that we must become a half court team. D'Antoni has one way of coaching, sorry ladies and gentlemen, he's not changing that for anyone so let's change him.  Who can we get to replace this fool?
 
Adlemen is the one that gets brought up alot. I hope Donnie isn;t too loyal to him. Some reports say that Dolan likes Dantoni more than Walsh. Can't tell what's true or not anymore.

We need someone who won't be afraid to yell at stat and melo. Motivate them. Bench them if they screw up. Someone like Popovich. But Dolan will never give someone the job security that Popovich or Sloan enjoyed. Unless he brings Isiah back haha.

Dantoni just yells at Toney Douglas. Doesn't have the balls to say a word to melo and stat.

TD's the whipping boy for everything. add to that he STAYS getting drilled by every screen cause no one's ever calling it out
laugh.gif
and pringles never says anything
 
seriously the team is so flawed to the point that they doesn't even yell out picks. I've seen that happen a good amount of times. Before and after the trade

shameful stuff. I just hope coach chauncey gets us to play better
 
nah those players had giant mental lapses on D just like we do now. So did the teams of the last few years.

@ the bubbling hate for D'Antoni rising to the top in this thread again.
 
i was looking at some mock drafts and it has brandon knight falling to us at 17. as much as i hate knight, i'd take that and run.
