All this guy does is brick shots, play mediocre defense and complain about phantom fouls.
We cannot play winning ball when this guy is such a negative force in the majority of games.
How you gonna break .500 when you have a key player going 3-13 more than half of the time?
idk.. those hypothetical melo deals are looking REAL good right now..
I seriously hate this guy as a player. He's lost three games for us this year already.
We should have traded him in the offseason while he had some value. We're headed for the lotto again with him as a key part.
It does seem like Gallo is hurting us. Not sure why, but even I, have little faith whenever he puts up a 3. His other aspects of his game are non-existent, he looks way worse than last year.
Interesting through the first 7 games gallo had the same effective shooting percentage as Amare.

I guess if you are blocking shots, rebounding and extremely aggressive on defense, and attacking when you are on offense you are perceived differently.
i thought gallo was ok tonight. felton was atrocious.
I like that he did some other things. What's going on with him I wonder, he run into an old girlfriend in Milan or something? Did the Melo talk really get in his head? I thought he "loves the pressure". Dude ain't been right since pre-season.
ridiculos thread.. scapegoating a guy who had a pretty decent game... if you think gallo is the problem with this team, then you are not watching the games..

I agree if he is the fourth option on offense. If his job is to spread the floor, hit the three and drive and be aggressive when he has the opportunity then he is a big disappointment so far. This was a better game for him but he needs to do a lot more if the Knicks are going to win many games.
He is not the problem. I just don't have confidence in him like i had last year tho.
I wanted him to take it to Carmelo last year. This year I have so many more things to worry about, like out PnR. . .

funny you mention the pick and roll in the gallo thread. he actually runs it better with amare than felton does.
Gallo looks SLOW. Probably because he catches the ball 20 ft from the rim and is being guarded by SF's.
Its not Gallo's fault, but he is our three point specialist and to go 0-5 doesn't sit well. Douglas has lost a step you can see it and 0-7 wow man. If the three are flying you better make some of them. But to throw a zero in that category all the Knicks needed was Gallo to hit one and Douglas to hit one and they would have walked away with a win. How about in those 12 shots they took it hard to the basket drew a couple of fouls went to the line made a few baskets Knicks walk away with the win. The Knicks have to stop the threes. GS is a high powered offense they attempt the fair amount 10 3 point fgs, the knicks need to be in that range. I hate blame anyone for the losing but in this game Douglas and Gallo did the Knicks in.
Gallo got to Shoot ball 9 times!!!
Came away with 15 points and 3 assists( Second on team tonight!)
How the fuck was this his fault?
I have played way too many games and I will say this NO ONE IS GONNA WIN OR LOSE A GAME
SHOOTING ONLY 9 SHOTS PERIOD!!!
TD had more shots and the Ball in his hands more the Gallo by far and had less production!!
Less points less assists By the fukcing way!!
Chandler scored more but he took 20 shots!!.... More then double Gallo
Gallo out rebounded everybody other the Stat with 7 as well
2 Steals......
9 for 9 from line ( but all he does is shoot 3's)
Only thing we don't need to worry about is Gallo's 3's falling! By years end he will lead our team by a far margin in Made
3's unless he is traded then he will lead another team in 3's
Gallo also got 2 steals and dont recall his man scoring big in game either? Guards killed us tonight as did
Lee.....
Blaming Gallo just sounds dumb!!
Fifth most shot attempts tonight...... 6th for the year!
Yeah it all his fault

Thanks man
There was a stretch in crunch time when he clanged a three from six feet behind the arc, did an ole' move on defense to give up a layup-and-one and then missed a layup and went begging for a foul on the other end.
He looks like he's playing scared out there, not confident at all. We just can't play winning ball with him playing like this.
The fact that he's not shooting as much is not a positive. He's not shooting because he lost his mojo. We're still running plays to try to get him started every game.

I think Amare will come around but - his defense has not been good and he's been a turnover machine. I'm disappointed in Gallo but there is plenty of blame to go around.
