I just wonder if we're going to beat ourselves. Wow, it's difficult not to be somber right now. Even for a homer.
I wanted a sweep so frickin bad...
If PP starts making with the Reggie choke signs, I'm going to throw my radio off the roof.
This will not be Yankees Red Sox...this will not be Yankees Red Sox....this will not be Yankees Red Sox....
My head is going to explode listening to the radio today!

Maybe motivation wasnt the right word. But melo definetly needs to clear his head a little bit. he needs to look over the gametape and realize that they are gonna double team him every time so he needs to find other guys. basucally he needs to trust his gusy more and give himself a better shance to succeed
I hope he does all of that. Let's see. Looking on the bright side, I doubt that both he and Smith will have such poor shooting games on the same night again.
For the series, the Knicks are +44 with Tyson on the floor and -20 with Kenyon.

It stems from the base set we run with PNR...Tyson at the same time disrupts game flow with personal fouls. I would say his importance of being on the floor is synonymous with Melo's offensive workload. In this case he needs to stay on the floor as much as possible to get the ball out of the chucker's hand.
Oh and where is the great job "Grunny Get It Dunny" signing of Chris Copeland?

I've seen many times when the Celtics' big man is afraid to leave Tyson to help and it leaves Felton or another Knick with a clear path to the basket. Tyson's energy and defense look better each game.
Last night was frustrating to say the least. Had to avoid all Knick talk afterwards. Kudos to Shump and Ray for showing up last night. Did JR know his suspension was only for 1 game?
The Felton/Chandler pick and roll brought us back in the 3rd quarter. Once Tyson sat down, we took the ball out of Ray's hands. Why not try the P&R with Kenyon? Or Melo?
Seemed like we could not buy a basket when we needed it. Melo can't afford to have another subpar game on Friday. Hopefully JR warms up as well.
I can't even bring myself to analyse tactics- just win!

You follow the games on a radio, on a roof?

Every single game that they bother to broadcast on fabulous 98.7 FM.
I live in Jersey, though. Need the additional height to get the reception.
