It's like Woody takes pride in not changing anything- in his mind this has worked before so it should work again. Doesn't seem to grasp that teams scout, adapt and adjust- they figure out your system and it's weak points and play to exploit them. Not adjusting is just madness.
We have watched exactly, EXACTLY, E X A C T L Y the same crap all F***ING year and NOTHING has changed! It's maddening! Players have spoken out, opposing players have ridiculed it, opposing coaches have ridiculed it and yet he makes no changes what so ever because it work some games last year.
do you think the knicks are coached to go under the screens?
I turned it off as soon as JR started looking off wide open teammates and jacking up shots with someone in his face. They play like they can't stand being on the floor together, as opposed to the Suns who were laughing in the huddle with Hornacek. Tyson is a disgrace. Gives matador D a bad name.
Tyson close to home has to have personal matters that minimally cause him to miss shoot around for the warriors game.

What would be the point? As long as Melo is here, they'd just waste their time force feeding the guy as he breaks off plays and demands the ball.

Valid question and often overlooked by people who want to continue to build around Melo
Even with Phil and the triangle you need team ball and roles
It can't be ISO all day and night

so far, so good for everyone..
goran is the focus of the suns offense, in Houston he wouldn't be and his numbers would not be as big... remember when Lin was the focal point of the offense he had incredible numbers...

Who is he going to pass the ball to? Fat Raymond Felton? Brickfest JR Smith? His supporting cast is garbage, so I don't know why you think that he is the problem. People use to think the same dumb shit when Kobe had Smush "I can't make a CBA team" Parker and Chris Mihm as starters.

Its a terrible defensive scheme badly executed with zero effort by a bunch of losers who hate each other.

Even if he didn't, he had plenty of opportunities to tell him to stop.

what i mean is that it's one thing to coach switching and another to go under screens. the former is a strategy and the latter means there is no communication and no sincere effort to step over the pick and fight. i mean does every knick lack ears to hear a pick called and peripheral vision to see a different color uniform out of the corer of their eyes, moving screens notwithstanding?

From the reactions some of these players have to screens, I'd have to guess that they rarely call them out to begin with. To be honest, I don't think Woodson told him to go under the screens. For whatever reason, I believe Felton decided to do that himself. However, why would the coach continue to let it happen? It's frustrating on all accounts.
its not Woody...Its the ragedy players with no heart and no accountability...Nothings changed in woodys offense or defense of approach since he's been coach its just awful play...Chandler plays like a rookie who never played man...Felton just sucks now and melo isnt a leader that can carry a teAM TO WINS OVER UNDER 500 TEAMS..Stop with excuses thats reality!!

Rockets really need Beverly because lin can't defend the points in the west. Horrible game tonight by him and Paul went off. Beverly/Lin works but I don't think its enough to come out of the west. Tonight Canaan was the best point on the Rockets.
i wonder if i saw that game if i would agree with your assessment. your analysis and track record are very suspect.
did you happen to catch the knick game last night? i watched wire to wire. don't recall you participating much at all. what did you think of the esprit de corps? my first thought was melo saying "i want to test free agency" about 10 days before the season started.
"I want to be a free agent. I think everybody in the NBA dreams to be a free agent at least one time in their career. It's like you have an evaluation period, you know. It's like if I'm in the gym and I have all the coaches, all the owners, all the GMs come into the gym and just evaluate everything I do. So yes, I want that experience."

what he said catalyzed the losing. it was antithetical to winning hence just about the stupidest set of sounds to emanate from his piehole.
