Knicks are fighting hard just have to execute a bit better. They're active but just not yet understanding how to attack.

Larkin is giving it his all. He may not always get it right but he's hustling out there. Refs didn't have to make that call seeing how hard the Knicks worked on D. Dude had nowhere to go.

Knicks are hustling in spite of their mistakes. If they played this hard every night it would really help.

No one is going to the hole. Everything is a jumper. Not even put backs. They need Acy for offensive rebounding.

You talking about his pass? Think the pass from Melo was slightly off which made him fumble it so he was late to the pass to the corner. I'm watching on a stream though but that's what I saw.

HEllo fellow Knickerbockers
couple things, great half wasn't terrible to watch:
Carmelo Anthony= Much better creating chances for his team mates and making smart decisions to get the the basket. Iman Shumpert and him work pretty well together, also played some great defense
Dalembert=Horrible and turnover prone and his defense has been horrible everytime he is on the court we need to start Cole instead(or workout a trade deal with him/JR for someone)
Early= he is not as terrible as he is he just needs to play with more confidence
GustavBahler @ 11/10/2014 8:45 PM
Well, we finished better than we started. Too much forcing the issue early on, especially THJ. Did better when he was more patient. Wish they would set more screens for each other, were doing it earlier in the season. Been a problem with the Knicks stretching back several coaches.

I like Jason Smith's aggressiveness on both ends of the court. Didnt see the last few games so I don't know why Acy and Cole aren't getting any burn, maybe in the second half.

nixluva @ 11/10/2014 8:46 PM
Hawks are small n quick with 2 PG's with handles and speed. 3pt shooting and chemistry. That's not a good match up for us defensively. Given that I'm not upset with the effort. Just gotta get sharper passing and attack the rim a bit more.
Splat @ 11/10/2014 8:46 PM
Who thought Early is terrible? He hasn't even played 48 minutes yet.
yellowboy90 @ 11/10/2014 8:46 PM
The real game starts now. The 2nd half defense from opponents have given the knicks fits. I don't like that Fisher went away from playing small ball at times. Can the knicks finally learn and change up their tendencies which is what the triangle is all about, reacting to the defense and then countering.
