I disagree, they can defend just fine when the players commit to doing so

Kidd defense on Nelson was key to come back..hopefully he is rested for final 8 minutes to get this victory. Prigs getting ate up by Nelson. We also went cold and missed a lot of easy shots.

Game over? Nice to know. How long have you followed basketball for, because the 4th quarter hasn't even gone under way yet. Only down 8.

Never knew NBA basketball was only 3 quarters... Game over? This is why I don't really post inside of gameday threads (during the actual game).

Knicks are going to pull this game out. This is the championship round. We're a much better team.

We can't go with Amare if the game is close. Right now he is bricking shots under the hoop, that is assuming he does not get blocked or stripped.

Pre-season Amar'e is getting roasted

NYK im glad you are a loyal fan but its ok if you are critical if they team isnt playing well it doesnt make you a bad fan

This team is disgustingly inconsistent defensively and that's not a good sign come playoff time.

The way they have played over the last 10-15 games is painful. Nothing like the team that started the season.

Melo is so hard for other teams to handle.
yellowboy90 @ 1/5/2013 8:56 PM
This game needs Hercu-Melo
OGkush121 @ 1/5/2013 8:57 PM
Melo going for 30+ again :) just wish the Knicks' D would pick up as well.
StarksEwing1 @ 1/5/2013 8:57 PM
we have to hope shumpert plays like he did last year which will help the perimeter defense. we cant defend like this in april

you always have an excuse if they play awful its never the knciks fault lol

Always have an "excuse". Wrong. This isn't 2003-2008 anymore. This is 2012-2013 and we're currently 22-10. 4 1/2 games up on the Atlantic division and only 1/2 a game back of Miami for the #1 seed.

When we play "awful"? Wrong. Just because we've lost some games (that's basketball) doesn't mean we've played "awful".

And just like that, it's only a 3 point game. Like I stated heading into the 4th quarter, this is the championship round and we've jumped on Orlando thus far here in the 4th.
