I really thought they would win this game...but season is officially over in my mind. Entire team looked terrible. Fat lady has sung
Going to be hard, especially with this stretch coming up now. Might be 10 under .500 soon
If they dont fire the coach now---than accept a non playoff season.
Being a lame duck coach, D'Antoni is going to have no motivation real soon. THings might get worse
The entire team has mailed it in from the coaches down go players. Embarassing
The Rockets are going to get a lottery pick.
Up next, Knicks have Chicago, Blazers, and Pacers twice. Bucks, who are 1.5 games behind, have Raptors, Nets, Cavs, Warriors. Kiss the 8th spot goodbye

Ouch! Sh1t!
Fuck this team!
They have no heart. This is what you get when you trade for Melo. He's brain dead and never has an answer. Never hustle back.
Amare is a disgrace as well. The last time he boxed put would be the first time.
These guys love talking leadership and shown none.
What is the coach supposed to do. You keep adding guys that need to play. They don't have one energy garbage guy that really changes the pace of the game.
And fuck James Dolan. Raised ticket prices again and this bunch of losers is 5 games under .500.
The team we broke down with Zach, Lee, Gallo, Chandler, Crawford was better than this one. No fucking plan will ever be.executed without Walsh. This is who this organization wants and this is who we will be.

The only way to "salvage" this season is to oust Clueless Pringles NOW
and be SELLERS of our high priced garbage at the deadline.
But all we'll get is the same LAME excuses.
Like I've said before, hell would have to freeze over for that to happen.
It's all about putting fannies in the seats for Dolan. He doesn't care about
the fans. He just wants to roll with the profit. Melo and him are a PERFECT match.
If MDA bring Amare off the bench before the end of the season he will gain respect in my eyes. I just don't think Melo, Amare, chandler and Lin can start and be good at all, The pieces just don't fit.

I think things have gone way beyond that. I think the coach needs to go. If he stays the Knicks probably are not going to the playoffs. If he goes they may not go either but it has gotten to the point where there is no reason to keep him.

IMO is already appears that way. Knicks losing games, and don't appear motivated. Are the players supposed to motivate the coach, or the other way around? MDA looks like he really couldn't care less, and if the coach has that demeanor it's sure to rub off on the players.

I don't think its one or the other, but both.

I doubt we are going to the playoffs anyway. You really think that this team, who has had some time to learn the system, will play better learning a new one and win enough to make the playoffs THIS SEASON?
The only realistic way we do it is if we can somehow get Linsanity play back. Does that mean having both Amar'e and Melo off the bench? I don't know, but since it wont happen because they are the big bucks stars, we can kiss a winning season and the playoffs goodbye.

Only thing that can save this season is an ACL tear for Melo.
i dont think we are at that point but urgency should have started in milwakee. i dont know whether dantoni loss the team or not. they seemed to be tuning him out.
My prediction: MDA will be fired within a week. Woodson will take over. this shake up might inspire the team to win one game after the firing. but we'll start losing again. unless we get a coach that can hold our "superstars" accountable, we're back to the starbury years. but hey Melo will get his 25 pts a night.

Uh - sounds like piggy backing.
MDA will not get fired this season. And if he gets fired in the off season, it better not be for woodson.
