you could see melo kind of trying to explain that last shot setup to toney after the buzzer. i think melo and amare are gonna be frustrated by toney a lot this year if he's the point.
He hustles but hes not necessarily a good defender, hope im wrong, Shump on the other hand just might be.
Shumpert was awesome but still, spree > shumpert

so true bro!!
The most important stat of the game so far is 25 bench points for the knicks at the half.
josh harrellson shooting touch is amazing!
Very impressed with Shumpert so far.
Great energy, and not lacking in confidence.
Plays both ends of the court.
I also like the intensity that the team is showing on defense.
Loving what Shump and Jorts will bring to this team....I feel safe with Bibby running the point. TD on the other hand, has great hustle and man to man defensive skills. As far as setting up the offense, he's more of the two guard as far as PG IQ.
A healthy Baron Davis would be solid for this team....TD is lacking PG confidense. His confidense increases when playing SG.
Shump is the F'ing man....I love when a player has high confidense. Thats the key difference between the average player, and a super star. In the right system, under the right coach, Shump will be an All Star before he retires....Right now, he's still a rookie.

Of course, but for now! We don't know the heights Shump will help us reach and how.
melo is a nice asset to have. just so smooth and easy.

Yes!!!! He's the ballchinnian! Or was it a chinballi?
ugh, toney just missed a wide open pick and roll that would've gotten stat a layup or dunk. TONEY!!! arrrgh..
my name is carmelo and this is what I do
omg, toney just ran through amare's lane to the basket! he's a horrible point.
and then a palming turnover next time down.
