Won't miss a single play of our Knicks game, but when it's commercial? It's time to scoreboard watch.

A Knicks win, Miami loss and Chicago loss would make for a great night of Knicks basketball.

Noah and Hinrich out for the Bulls. Bet they still beat the Nyets. Should be entertainly to watch the Nyets suffer

The Pacers seem to be ready for a slug fest against Miami. Up 10 there in the early 2nd. I just love to see teams not roll over for Miami while getting steamrolled before the start of the 2nd half. Indy's not backing down tonight.

Ight, enough of this, time to focus on NYK.

Need to close down on them quicker.

We're down here in the first quarter, Milwaukee's just draining their 3's, but it's a beautiful sign to see Amar'e Stoudemire contributing off the bench alongside the likes of Felton, Melo and Chandler. Been in the game for two minutes, boxed out nicely, contested/blocked a shot and also showed flashes of the 'old' Amar'e during his spin move into a bucket down low.

I've always been a strong believer that Melo and Stoudemire would work out and/or lead our Knicks together. Going for 3 consecutive tonight.

Udrih just shook Felton

BEAUTIFUL Assists from Melo to Novak! Melo sunk the defense in before kicking out to a wide open Novak.

Well done Knicks!

Damn Melo can dunk in traffic?!

notice how Melo's shooting has been evidently better since Felton came back, and it's not even cause he's assisting him so much or anything like that.

yep and Melo is moving the ball better. conscious effort by the Knicks to move the ball lately

Melo playing bully ball and just FEASTED down low ending the first Q! Milwaukee caught fire from 3 (4/7) but damn did Carmelo Anthony come alive during the fist Q. 10 points off of 3/5 shooting to go along with 2 assists, 1 board and zero turnovers. Tyson Chandler has also came to play with 2 points and 6 boards already. Felton with a quiet 4 points/2 assists/0 turnovers.

Seems like our d is not bad, but they are just hitting their shots.

what surprises me most is that the bucks thrive off of Ellis and Jennings' scoring, and they're a combined 2/8 from the field (6 points), and the Knicks are usualy "raped" by the opposing guards, especialy if they're quick.
However we've been torched by Ilyasova and Dunleavy, and out of the guards it's actualy Udrih who's got the most points.
