Too little to late, Novak should have been on the bench after he hit that one three. That decoy stuff is bullshit, the other team is still playing man to man defense.
paul george is very good on both sides of the ball..
gawd Amare is the worst defender in the paint... nothings changed...
Next person to trash Prigs need your eyes examined

Well hopefully in the playoffs, we wont be so depleted that he has to handle the ball 99% of the time
Woah. JR has been playing the best ball of his career. Why so negative?
he's a friggin complimentary piece that has to play as the number one option because of the injuries/suspension... he's making a pittance...
but to answer your question, Melo ain't playing, so people have to shit on someone
Exactly my point. Hopefully the Knicks wont have so much injuries in the playoffs that JR has to be forced into the role again
Well at least I finally got gamepicker right

Lol, decoy to do what? To play 5 on 4. He is the best shooter out there, and it looks like they are chucking the hell out of him. JR needs to stop shooting. He is completely off his game tonight.
Having Novak in the game means one defender is always on him at all times. Keeps one guy out the paint and makes just a tad easier for penetration. I disagree with it but it looks like Woodson has no intentions of drawing plays for him.
Lol, is that how you see it. I don't. I take it that he doesn't know how to design plays for him to get Novak shots. The bulls and Spurs had many plays to get Steve Kerr.
pacers are a boring team tho...LOL effective but boring....
5-7 in last 12 games tremendous
Shorthanded and on the road. What did you expect?

He have no PG. Kidd has been playing really bad the past few games, and his been making a lot bad decisions too.
Funny I thought once we got rid of Lin we had a 3 headed monster at PG
Prig and Kidd are just to slow to make things happen with this team. They are good reserve players, and not feature players.
I put this game on Woodson. His lineups sucked. SHould have played WHite and not stuck with NOvak. Also needed to move Kidd and Jr off the ball earlier in the 4th.

I could be wrong. But Ive seen plays where Woody has Melo come off screens. Hell, even last year Novak had Jeffries set him off ball screens (though that coulda been Jeffries doing that on his own). Every time this is mentioned in the post game though, Wally just chalks it up to Novak not being aggressive

I think the Knicks could have used size in place of Novak. Kurt or Marcus might have impacted the game more. This loss sucked but glad Kurt and camby were on the floor.

Kerr was a guard he could shoot off the dribble, Novak has to be set to get a good shot off, this isn't debatable anymore.
