That was the dumbest thing i have ever seen a player do. the celtics were DEAD and JR had to be an idiot. H eis gonna lsoe a lot of money in FA

I know MSG is loving the idea of game 7. More games more money.

Yea Melo is stopping the ball.

felton has been our mvp this series. melo has been building a house the past 2 games

Some how some way the Knicks close the thing out, the Pacers lose composure just as easy. The Heat not so much!

Woody has got to figure out a way to stop this Melo getting the ball way out on the perimeter and only getting it on ISO's. The C's have totally taken us out of our offense and we're not getting any 3's off ball movement and penetration. This is a VERY BAD SIGN for the future even if we get past the C's. Teams will look to do the same things. This series is exposing the Knicks offense.

This can only be described as pathetic.

There is no positive that can be taken out of this performance.

J.R. is a freaking clown. He runs his mouth and comes up with a pathetic game like this?

Melo... Where do I start?

Whatever, this team switched back to their middle of the season mode where they talked about how they could beat the Heat and couldn't handle losing teams. All talk and no game.

Let the media feast with the 2004 Red Sox-Yankees comparisons. The Knicks deserve all the hate they get tonight. And yes, I'm freaking pissed!

Guys have to log off. But would love to hear woody explain this one out.

Exactly, when does he holds onto the ball way to long. If we aren't pushing the ball and settle for a half court game, then are are done in future games. Woody never make any adjustments when the offense is stagnet.

Chandler, Smith, and Felton need to show up. Not just Melo.

Felton shouldnt be on that short list

When melo plays great people are mad that he doesnt get enough credit and when he plays poorly he gets too much blame lol. Look i like melo and i have defended him but he has really huurt us the past 2 games. JR smith hurt us 2 games as well. First he gets suspended and then he pulls a john starks tonight

Yeah Melos a sensitive subject obviously but it'd be hard to defend him here. He was pretty much a no show for 2 games. He gets the credit when we win, so he has to get some blame when we lose.

Its not so much defending his performance but defending this notion that its all on him. Melo didn't get ejected and suspended. Melo didn't hand the Celtics bulletin board material, he didn't shoot nothing but blanks until the game was out of reach. We need some perspective here.

Yeah he's sucked the last 2 games, he has to take his licks but don't leave out the rest of the team.

Anubis, you have no arguement. Felton actually shot well and did what he should have. Melo shot awful. At least he attempted to take it to the hole though. Smiths play was inexcusable.

The Celtic will gladly give our PG unlimited shots.

The Celtics are focused on wearing down Melo. Dude catches the ball way to far from the rim. Watch the game. He doesn't get easy shots. This is the Celtic strategy.

You forget who's scoring outburst got the Knicks to the 2nd seed when we looked DONE!

Very Good Post. The Cetics were DEAD in Game 3. Look Game 4 was tough but i wasnt that mad because JR was out and we fought back and should ahve won. This game was a joke. We go up 11-0 and then the Knicks stopped playing. the Knicks are mentaly soft. a few bad calls and they lose their composure every single time im sick of it. This team is built for 1 year and it looks like we may have a historical collapse

The thing is though that very little people were blaming the whole thing on Melo. Maybe 2 people put it all on him. Most of us simply mentioned his poor play and now we're "blaming" him?

WE HAVE POOR PG PLAY. Plain and simple. Felton is impersonating Russel Westbrook.

Come on man even the melo ahters arent blaming it all on him. However be fair he has been awful lately. if you wnat melo to be considered a MVP type player then he has to be crticized when he plays poorly. I mean even lebron who is a much better overall player got criticized 2 years ago. the difference is that lebron carried a sorry cavs team for years

Fair enough Gustav. While im pissed at JR I still feel like this game and last game especially was Melos time to step up and im disappointed he didnt deliver.
