Yea, for Orlando.
Knicks offense completely stopped once Orlando played zone
We needed to knock down shots...and the one guy who was hitting them (Jorts) didn't play in the 4th.
The Magichave a whole bunch of old Knicks. Hughes, Duhon, J Rich and Ewing

If only we decided to drive the ball when we still had a chance to win. Instead? 3 ball attempts to take us out of the game for good.
This was a tough one.....
Amare's 10 points 2 rebounds isnt going to cut it.

Not to take anything away from Orlando they shot crazy 3's. However, Howard with 5 fould , 5 mins left in game down by 5. We decide to shoot some 3 against theeir zone. I dunno, you are supposed to shoot against the zone i guess. . .

Statomire only cares about his stats.
Too bad he isn't even padding those.
Man really hope Baron Davis comes back at least 80% of what he is. We need it badly. This Team is Lost.

We are not hitting open shots or contested shots. It's crazy. I watch a lot of games of other teams and every team hits their share of open & contested. Look at Rudy Gay the other night. hand in his face and swish. We just don't have enough players who make shots.

Who do we have on our roster that drives to the basket?
Where is the ball movement? Anthony is injured and shoots 30 times! His ratio is 1 pt per shot. THat is pathetic. Imagine a team that they had and add Chandler and a PG instead of Melo? Melo is killing them right now. NOt playing like a team player.

knicks defense has been fine. the offensive decision making has been... offensive.
Perimeter D has been awful. Everytime Howard sets the pick at the top of the key, they get an open look because either Chandler wont come out or they switch and get lost.

knicks went away from him completely down the stretch. melo played a little too selfishly agains the zone, i think. you beat the zone with ball movement.
dwight had 5 fouls for the last 7 minutes of the game and the knicks never took it at him. let the magic off the hook.
Knicks would have won this game with a real head coach. A real head coach would have come up with a way to beat the zone on offense and defend the pick and roll on defense.
Fire Antoni!

Knicks didn't know what to do against the zone. Cant blame Melo because Amare was hiding in the zone and didn't pop out. They didn;t take it at him because the Magic went zone to protect Howard. BTW go at Howard with whom exactly?
