Knicks · GAME THREAD: The Bucks Stop Here !!! KNICKS vs BUCKS @ 7:00PM (page 29)

Wow. Refs tried hard to give that to Milwaukee. Over the back not called. Timeout given after shumps missed free throw whe. It should've bees jump ball. Melos tip on the same play should have been a foul on Dunleavy. Unreal. Great gritty gutty win.

I notice he plays te scrubs in the first half to give the starters a breather but doesn't use them in 2nd. Brilliant. He made te adjustment after the pacer game.

what is it 12-4, now? pretty damn impressive.

bucks only had 45pts in the second half after 62 in the first half. good adjustments by woody and the knicks.

For the last 10 years, we've lost the great majority of the close games/tight finishes. We have been winning them lately. This team has some mental toughness. Have to credit this coach.

How awesome was that NBA2k12 shoulder shimmy thing melo did in the post before the turn around fade away shot.

THIS WAS A GRITTY GRITTY WIN!!!

credit goes to the coach, but also the players: Melo, Tyson, Shump, JR, Novak, Fields, Jeffries, etc.

all heart from those guys on a second night of a back-to-back, on the road, after playing the brutal Bulls, missing two starters, against a team fighting for its playoff life. etc.

great heart and effort by the team tonight. anyone who doubts that is blind.

Woody needs an extension with a fully healthy team we are very dangerous

this is part of the difference to me as well and baffles me when it comes to the most vocal critics.

Good win, I have no problem with the way they gutted it out tonight.... only a few things bothered me.

Can't rebound, I watched teen woolf run down balls, rebound his own misses in traffic, it was horrible.. we were getting outhustled..

We give up leads to quickly.. 14 pt first qtr league, vanished fast..

Other than that, I think we played well...

Melo really had a good game.. 32/10, I have no problem with his performance, just a big time performance.. I will give credit where it is due...

Shumpert, still plays like a rook, but really got after it defensively

chandler got off to a great start ,really set the tone

Fields played well throughout..

Novak was hit some huge shots, that really turned the momentum

JR smith hit some big 3's..

We made shots tonight, and when we do, we win...

I lost my voice.. and I will say this.. I am completely disgusted with the officiating tonight... there was a play late, where mbaboute.. or however you spell his name.. blatantly pushed melo in the back for a rebound and a basket... NOW, we all know, that melo goes a solid 240.. there is no way in HADES he has position on you and all of a sudden dissapears out of bounds without getting shoved.... just horrible officiating... and the dumbleavy throwing himself into defenders when he shoots was also a joke...

GET THE BUCKS OUT OF HERE, WE WENT IN THEIR HOME AND SMACKED THEM..... I LOVE IT..

I really don't like how the offense is regressing since Linsanity.

Oh sorry!! Lin is out - I forgot.

Yeah, we have a chance to get as many wins in our last 20 games as we did our first 40, but it's no big deal.

melo has really impressed me. I admit i wasn't the biggest melo fan but the last month he has been great

Woodson has them believing they are not out of games and you can see in both this game and the one we won against the Bulls, the Knicks came out with serious clamps on D and muscled their way back into the game. We have made some pretty clutch 3's down the stretch too.

What was most interesting today is how they were able to close the game out with no PG on the floor for the last 5 minutes or so.

They have been a different style of team under Woodson. These guys are a tough bunch.
