These guys are making Lin look All-World. D up!

Felton's playing with an agenda, trying too hard. Needs to get a better pace to the game. Woodson needs to sit him down and explain things to him

The Knicks don't seem to have an answer to Rockets' offense. And this time they don't have Melo to match up with them on offense.
I'm not saying this is going to be our first loss at MSG, but I knew there was a reason I was really worried about this game.
Whoever thought we were gonna trash them (especially without Melo) was deluded.

Would our first home loss be easier to stomach while we are depleted by injuries vs a team like the Rockets (a .500 or slightly below .500 team) or with all hands on deck in a hard fought game against a top-ranked opponent?

Not into stomaching loses. I want to win EVERY GAME! Especially against Houston

Maybe Novak can teach Felton how to play defense.

Thank you JR.

Doesn't JR hit the floor after 75% of his shots? Just sayin'.

Trying too hard? C'mon, how do you measure effort?

misterearl @ 12/17/2012 8:01 PM
It is a JR type of tempo. Playground improvisation style.
knicks1248 @ 12/17/2012 8:01 PM
we tend to have trouble with running teams, and we have no shot blockers

yep. 2 things that really hurt the Knicks are pace and rebounding. Coming up against teams that excell in these attributes will always meen a tougher game.

LOL. Me too. I can't decide on this one myself. I want to go 41-0, ha!

Looking for team defense to come alive, our defense must watch their man and watch the ball

Where is Charles Oakley when we need him?
