TYSON, SHUMPERT AND JEFFRIES - that's the real legion of doom.

For the balance of the season Tyson Chandler has been the best player on the floor. Have I mentioned lately how much I love Tyson Chandler?

At this pace the pacers will be out of timeouts by half time.

If we play with this effort for the rest of the season I think teams will fear us in the playoffs.

This isn't sustainable but i'd settle for 85% of it.

I know there where those who bashed MDA for taking the air out of a hot player, so what about taking a hot lineup off the floor early? Isn't it even worse if a lineup is clicking? Anyway let's GO KNICKS!

I really think it doesn't matter right now. They can throw any combo out there and the team would do well. The energy of a new beginning is so high.

Let them ride it on into the playoffs. This effort level is what even MDA was saying they should be able to sustain. He said guys shouldn't hold anything back when out there, cuz the team was so deep. We just needed the starters to play harder on D, cuz the bench always did.

Why not sustainable? We are deep if he manages minutes well and can keep enough D on the floor we should be able to keep this up.

Yeah, Melo was completely dogging it with D'Antoni. Oh well
nixluva @ 3/16/2012 8:28 PM
Just a side note, this isn't a slow paced, ISO style they're playing. It's still a motion and ball movement, PnR offense. This is still the same offense for the most part, which you'd expect given the lack of time to change everything up. So this is really more about the Defense than anything.

yea there is no doubt in my mind anymore. I just have to put it behind me because I am a Knick fan 1st. So if we can play well from now on im good.

Clean @ 3/16/2012 8:29 PM
Davis and his hamstring is going to be a problem. We only have 2 PGs

We have to miss the most amount of layups in the NBA.
