The team looks astonishingly bad. It's not just JR - JR doesn't make a 20 point difference per half!
I agree but JR gave a Boston team that was dead more life
I think they would have came out strong regardless to avoid being swept

the C's defense has been the same as the previous 3 games, but now we have nobody stepping up offensively, and melo is playing hero ball..
Now he he did make a couple of good passes that should have been assist, but shump fail to hit the shots, but all and all, melo is playing right into the celtics game plan

He likes to play possum, don't you know him by know ?????
dude come on lol. I havent given up on this game but i doubt he is playing possum. The Celtics are having their best game and we are having our worst. also the Celtics are getting some home cooking from the refs

It's a shame Melo didn't learn from Durant yesterday. As long as you have NBA level teammates, you don't need to force bad shots.
Carmelo should play with Novak and Cope throughout the second half and be a decoy. His shot is not there; he should drive to the hole at every opportunity or play decoy and try to get shots for those guys.
First half sucked. I hate giving up a Sunday to watch a game like this. Hope the Knicks come back in the third. Also, if it looks hopeless I have no issue with Woodson putting in Cope, Barron, Q, Novak and White for the entire fourth quarter.
Knicks letting the refs get in their heads and the refs looking like they're trying to. Still, the team shouldn't look this flat without J.R. Novak and Richardson should never be on the floor at the same time unless its garbage time. We need much more scoring so Woodson should give Copeland another shot. Melo needs to play smarter and show more mental toughness. Felton is the only one who is consistently taking it to the rim. Shump needs to do likewise.
The funniest thing was when Q Rich tried to make a layup and hit the bottom of the backboard lol
We need that second scoring option. I'm surprised Copela.d xid t
Get any playing time.
LOL the past couple of games, EPSN would give a quick rundown of the game and go to commercial. Now, they decide to talk a little more.
The Celtics arent winning 4 in a row so i dont fear losing teh series. But i would have loved a sweep and some rest for round 2

No he doesn't , we have won games without all of our players at one time or another.
Im the bigegst Knick fan there is but its ok to be critical if a player does a stupud thing
Can't blame this all on JR- we flat out stunk in that first half. 35 points?! are you kidding me?!
+1
Its ok even we won one game agianst the heat last year. i expect to win game 5

+Infinity. Felton need to step up again. We have so much fire power, and Woodson isn't using it correctly.
20 points in this series is way too much to back from in a half. Ridiculous that we allowed ourselves to get down by that much.
We couldn't have played a worse half and unfortunately we haven't been able to keep the game close. Those who wondered what would happen to our offense without J.R. should be scared, because it looks like Woody doesn't know how to respond to that.
Why no Copeland? Why not more Novak? Why no more Felton penetrations?
The second quarter was more frustrating than the first because the Knicks allowed the refs and the Boston play to get in their heads and seemed to concede the half (not the game, we have another half to play).
You really can't do that. Even if you are hoping for a second half comeback, you have to keep it as close as possible and we failed miserably. We have fallen into the C's trap and didn't seem interested in making it out of it.
This game is far from over but they have to believe it, work their a$$ off and find a better strategy. Woody needs to use Copeland and Cope has to deliver! We need to make plays for Novak to open him up.
They gave us their best shot and we rolled over and rested. We need to strike back this next half and give us the best shot at finishing this series today.

Me too, just hope they can finish strong regardless of the outcome.

well if we are still getting beat badly by the 4th quarter we need to rest melo for game 5

Durant was 13-30 last night. If Melo had put that up, he'd have been killed. He HAS been killed for nights like that. Also, OKC was a lucky three point bounce away from blowing a 20+ lead to the Rockets. Durant is great, but that is NOT a game to point to for Carmelo to be "learning from".
