Dude, if we had played with this energy the whole year we should be top 4 in the east.
HugeKnick4 @ 3/16/2012 8:41 PM
Where was this D all year? Be prepared for a run by the Pacers. The Knicks must be resilient.

How the hell did Davis get injured again? I missed the first qtr.

Good to see the Knicks hustling hard... Coming out strong early on.

Baron pulled his hammy? Damn. Doubt that he will be ready for tomorrow.

The ball movement is tight, and is helping establish a balanced offensive attack.

All they have to do is maintain the consistency on both ends of the court.

Yeah, Knicks... YEAHHHH.... Great first half!

Dude this is the same damn offense we've been running. This isn't some profound changes on Offense. This is 100% about the team giving MAX effort D. From the Starters to the bench guys. We haven't seen this except during Linsanity.

Great half, great effort on both sides of the floor, excellent subbing by Woody. Fields shot looks worse than ever but his hustle plays in transition, not to mention the passes are really helping. I think we are seeing a great example of accountability. In the last game Lin turns the ball over too much and gets pulled early. This time he doesn't and stays. Baron comes in and stays longer because he is on a roll. Melo and Stat playing hard, everyone playing hard.

Some of these Melo comments sound a lot like they're from a jilted ex "He never took me to that restaurant!

HugeKnick4 @ 3/16/2012 8:46 PM
This was 50x more impressive than the Portland game. Knicks did benefit from the refs getting caught up in the blood flowing through the Woody with plenty of non calls though.

Even in the Portland game, we lost the 3rd quarter. Can we finally take one?

Dude if you can't see that there's a sharp difference in the effort level of STAT and Melo in particular I don't know what you've been watching. They could ALWAYS have been doing this. This is more about the players than it is about a coach. 95% of the offense is the same and Woodson has been part of the defense from day one, so really they should've been doing this all year. The role players have, but not STAT and Melo.

I saw Amar'e get the ball in the post. It is modified.
