It's because Melo plays so strong. Feeble players who fall and flail get calls. Same thing happens in Rec Leagues. Reasons why skinny guys like Kevin Martin, Ginobli, Gallo get calls all the time. Amare and Melo Bully Ball type play doesn't get calls.

what the hell happened to novak. last year if he was open he was automatic. Now this year im praying everytime he shoots. been hanging out with fields?

NUPE wrote:Well, when Shump and Amare get bak we will see less Prigs and less Rasheed, possibly no Camby. Knicks will be fine. From what I have seen this season, they do not apply 100% defense till the 4th. I think most of their leads and double digit wins have been generated in the 4th as a result.

Camby backs up Tyson after he picks up 2 quick fouls every game
Sheed backs up Amare after Amare is pulled after 6mins in the 1st quarter

Kurt is insurance

Plenty mins to go around

chandler protects the rim so weakly this year.

man we really miss shump on the perimeter defense

2nd Qtr 1:16

+1

Melo has to get back and stop griping, but good lord does he mugged all the time.

I thought we got rid of Fields and his awful FT shooting. Now Brewer?!

Brewer's ft shoooting is horrendous. Shumpert needs to return.

Tyson did it in New Oleans and Dallas. Not a one year wonder

C'mon Clyde. In one breath, questioning why the Knicks don't go to Melo. "He's all the offense they need."
Ray instead goes to Tyson on the pick and roll, where he is fouled. During the free throws, talks about how he's seen "too many games" where Chandler's not featured, and questions why he's now only getting a shot attempt (aside from the early foul trouble)...

well that went pretty much how a expected. we let a weak team without their best player hang around. It seems liek we are a betetr second half team

When we get shump back and put him on the young guards, it's gonna be a game changer. Shump was giving do wade problems, which means no guard is safe.

Eh, Brewer's never been a good shooter from anywhere. For his career he's only 25% from 3 and 68% from the line.

Halftime  
NOH 48 NYK 53

Melo is the KING of the no call!!!

This. I swear he could add 5 ppg with the fouls they don't call.
