Knicks shooting 65% and you think they need to try and draw fouls?

yep because you know they won't stay that hot.

I've seen him do that before. The ball was beyond halfcourt though. At the end of the first quarter we should passed the ball towards the basket. Instead Melo shot an off-balanced 3

This is what I live for, this is New York basketball, baby. Welcome home.

We are winning but I am upset Lin hasn't gotten any time.

This half: Way out of left Fields.

Still wearing a wrist brace and just healed up his thumb. Up 12 and from 3/4 court, not a shot we need him to take.

Good Team ball so far. The thing I like is that the D is as aggressive as it's been all year, but they're moving, passing and playing smart. The offense has been starting closer to the basket which is a good sign. Still have dumb turnovers and still missing some PnR situations, but guys are attacking the basket as well as taking good jumpers.

a PG is not our biggest problem imo. it's the shitty outside shooting. when our shooters are hitting, we can beat anybody

Stop It. 65 per cent is an aberration and you know it.

What happens when the shooting returns to normal?

What happens when our bench players, who played a short shift, are forced into extended minutes?

This is the perfect game to ease him into the rotation. It really is disheartening.

if MDA is smart he will bring Lin in off the bench for Shump and Douglas for Fields. No Walker please!

Sadly, I don't think this is going to happen. I hope I am wrong.

gunsnewing @ 1/31/2012 9:01 PM

damn Fields doing it all! a block now!

gunsnewing @ 1/31/2012 9:02 PM

Is a 40ft 3 really necessary in this game Melo?

yea man I mean its great that we are winning this game but I know we will get crushed against good teams playing guys like Walker and TD at pg. Its disheartening. A win is a win is a win even against the worse team in the league but you I would like to see better rotations
