I wonder if he will be used there more next year

The dude has it all if so can just get to him. And it looks like someone has.

bad pass by melo and worse catch and shoot by smiff
mreinman @ 4/2/2014 7:38 PM
smith the monster!

the knicks go as he goes

ToddTT @ 4/2/2014 7:38 PM
Now that's how you end a quarter.
yellowboy90 @ 4/2/2014 7:38 PM
NO Hardaway didn't. Great play by Hardaway, Melo, and especially Shump to get the turnover that lead to Melo's Dunk.
DrAlphaeus @ 4/2/2014 7:39 PM
Those two D sequences where they got those steals... What were the Knicks doing, zone?
mreinman @ 4/2/2014 7:39 PM
Melo had a good unselfish quarter. And very very solid defense.

Seems to me this team can play at the upper tier NBA level when they are all on the same page.

Yep, right decision but bad execution by both. If you receive a pass that's off you don't have to rush the Shot. He should have attacked the basket or reset the O.

when jr is playing focus, he's really good, if he was consistent he would be making so much more $$ and we would be a top team and not fighting for last of the top teams

This is fun! Love the defense. Even THJ was using good defensive technique. Shump was keeping his hands up and playing the passing lanes.

No and yes. It was man but zone principles to help the high isolation. Williams telegraphed the pass and Shump saw it coming

yellowboy90 @ 4/2/2014 7:42 PM
WOw, this is super small ball.
yellowboy90 @ 4/2/2014 7:44 PM
Unicorn sighting!!!: SHump finished on a break!
