ya its good when he doesn't have to pacify melo he looks a lot better
jerome jordan with a contest of the shot and then grabbed the rebound, too. i tuned in after tyson picked up two fouls and when i turned it on, for the first few plays i thought jerome jordan WAS tyson.
he looks promising.

fields and toney look much much much better tonight. making better decisions.
Helps when their shots are falling
they're taking better shots - that's what i meant by better decisions. shots coming in the flow of the offense. helps that there is actually flow to the offense.
but i think that's because amar'e is out. edit: not to bash amar'e, but this team hasn't figured out how to play with amar'e and melo on the floor at the same time.
More to do with the level of competition has dropped from the previous 2 games.

You might be right, like a need to get them their shots rather than flowing in the offense

hey, the kings beat the lakers. i'm more concerned with how the knicks are playing than their opponents. this team has looked so bad, i'll take them looking right and gaining confidence against weaker opponents for now.
nice ball movement - swinging the ball. and hustle from jorts to get the put back. team is looking good right now.
Josh Harrelson....who is this guy!
Kings announcers definitely impressed with Jorts.

This is the best basketball i've seen since the 1 quarter of Game 1 by the knicks
ball is flying around the perimeter. such better ball movement. melo three assists already.
Easily,the best quarter ofthe new season
amazing how different they look
Josh playing well...I really like this kid...

the amar'e effect. i love the guy, but he's been killing the team with his horrid play.
Donnie Walsh looking pretty smart right now.
Hey let's remember that the team had a chance to practice and get a little fine tuning too. So it's not just that they're playing the Kings. It's that they're actually playing better. Floor is spread and they're moving well and sharing the ball. These are things they haven't been doing. There was a lot more standing around and watching going on. Notice that Melo isn't dominating the ball. This playing is better mixed with awful play by the Kings.
I like what I see but unfortunately.....waiting for Knicks to go into "stupid" mode. If the Knicks can keep this up, the game will be over by the half.
