What an interesting Win. all the big guns shooting numbers look awful but the Knicks still win. Melo has looked terrible the entire Western road trip and to me hasn't been the same since he got sick. His legs look weak and has lacked explosion. He should really pass the ball more until his legs are there.

2 games in the loss column but equal in the win column = 1 game. But given they are two back in the loss column they will need Atlanta to lose at least 2 more times then they do.
Its complicated but can be done...

no... each "game" is considered half a game...
so if atlanta loses tomorrow and the knicks win... effectively the knicks have caught up because we'd be higher in the win column and higher in the loss column.
i am so glad philly finally won because they should be fired up against a hawks team which is going to be playing on the road and coming in with a 6 game losing streak.
how is our record against utah... in utah in the recent years?

Level on wins, w Atlanta having played two games fewer. For record purposes, they give you .500 in the games you haven't played yet, I think. So Atlanta have two games fewer played, .500 in those two puts them a game ahead.
What happened to Wally on the post game?

They could've won so many games with just smart, sound and solid BB. That lack of solid fundamental BB really hurts this team.

Blame Walsh. We should've tanked instead of trying to make the playoffs. We needed just one more loss to be worse than the Warriors. That minute difference cost us Curry.
Nard, what'd you think about the walking dead finale? I thought it could've been better.How'd chandler not get an and-1 on that play?
The funny thing is that I thought that this season was pretty underwhelming. It felt too scattered, to the point where it took several episodes to account for something that could've happened in a day. The finale was a welcomed change of pace for me but I hated the cliffhanger. That works for shows that have normal gaps between new seasons but WD takes almost a full year before rebooting. I hate that.

Yeah that is weird. Didn't he miss time last spring also? LJ is ok but I really like Wally in that role

His demeanor is different also. Not sure what is up but he hasn't been the same guy/player
Wally does March Madness at this time of year, so that's why he's missing on the postgame. I imagine he'll be back soon.
Felton ultimately played tough defense in the last couple mins that really helped them win the game.
JR smith is quietly becoming the best/most important player on this team.

coach probably hinted at "it aint all about you melo"

He should get fined at the start of every season because since his little shoe lace thing he has been a better player. He still plays bad D and needs to go to the hoop more aggressively but his last 40+ games have been totally different from his 1st 25-30 games number wise.

If Phil can zen sh1t him then he could be really good (for cheap). Dude is retarded yet has so much talent.
Wow- don't understand how we won this game after such a horrific 4th Q!
Tyson was his usual spectacular self against a team missing it's entire starting front court (6pts, 7 Reb), as was Felton (2pts, 4 Assists). Amar'e had a lot of shots that just missed or went in and out, but he had some key rebounds. How come Amar'e with his fragile knees seems to be the only player to take charges these days?
Like I said, I don't get how we won this game, I guess the Warriors were particularly awful.

Yeah, almost 20 games over .500, and they're missing those two HOF'ers, Stan Lee and the immortal Bogut. Easy win over a horibbly awful team.
We can't win even when we win.
Wierd to be rooting for the Sixers!
No let down against the Jizz!

To be fair Curry(who im a huge fan of ) made some really dumb decisions the last few minutes. Felton wasnt terible but i dont think he was good either. In fact they had to ull felton in the 4th
I love how the haters are no where to be found on Game Threads that involve a win. Pathetic.
