Kind of odd that Woody took him out when he was hot. Normal rest or ticked at something on defense?
Most likely defense. Bynum and Stuckey both drove by him like a McDonald's drive through window.
?: How can one be so quick on offense and so slow on defense? Perhaps STAT needs to do defensive slide drills everyday. Y'know once Woody teaches it to him since none of his coaches during his life bothered.
give him a few more games, i think it'll get better. he's still learning where to be on defense. i know it sucks for a $100 mill man, but i think he will actually get better. he has the tools.
oh I completely believe he's physically capable of doing it. I have no idea why it hasn't happened so far. I really hope it's just not having a Mike Woodson

This.
He doesn't have a choice

What is Copeland? a scorer. Not a 4 or a 3. Just a scorer
Copeland should start, only reason he is in is because of injuries.
Should not*
Knicks need to get Weed or Camby back in the starting line up, or find another defender to start.
the pistons have 28 points mid way though the 2nd, defense has been solid
austin daye just fouled carmelo on a 3 ball. no 4 point play, but u have to wonder what daye is trying to do in almost an exhibition game
Melo with his first points here in the 2nd quarter, hopefully this really gets Melo going.

True. But the defense has been abysmal relative to how we started out the season. Think Sheed makes a huge difference on D and the boards.
chandler probably is going to have 10 rebounds by the end of the first half

I don't understand this kind of logic. He doesn't have a choice? It isn't necessarily true that Amare has nowhere to go but up... he can flatline and stay stagnant. There is no guarantee he'll definitely improve on defense.
Ah I've missed the ill advised Shumpert pull up 3 early in the clock. Until he shows he can hit it consistenyl he should really only be taking corner 3s as a spot up shooter.
So nice to see my favorite player back on the court!
