Didn't say, he showed. He used his Wally Wall illustrator and showed two plays in which the Knick defense against the Wolves was poor. Both plays involved Hardaway.
To be honest, it was extremely unfair. Of all the poor defense played this year by our heroes, Szerb chooses to single out one guy? We all know paranoid Dolan has his hands in everything. He is the Joe Stalin of the sports world. Is it surprising that after Hardaway gives up the team secret that they didn't even try last year, Tim now is being singled out as a poor player on an MSG program? Benched for a half the day after those comments, now the only player called out for bad play this entire 3-10 season....something was behind that. I don't believe in coincidences in Dolan's MSG world.

Or maybe he is just a brutally awful defender and just maybe its his own fault and not MDA's
The video doesn't lie. It is hard to argue against such powerful visual. THJ should use this criticism as motivation

Blasphemer!

He also took a core Avery had and won it all
The LB you're lauding is the same one we ran out of town
So Larry all of a sudden became bad while Carlisle went on an uptick
Literally like 2-3 seasons apart from their results?
Carlisle has been more a victim of circumstances than anything

Bingo and I feel THJR is a bad defender
I do see some effort from him but he needs to improve
But if Wally is going to Alan Hahn his way to kissing donkey rear ends in this org
Naaaahhh will not waste my time on what he has to say DID NOT WATCH and WILL NOT WATCH
Right now, the team's unwatchable.
Still love my Knicks, bleed orange and blue, but the product they're putting out there is borderline unwatchable. Still watching every game but not with the passion I normally watch with. I won't be there with the I-Pad in my hand on UK commenting on ever play in the game thread. I'm OK with it though -- it's a process. This is year 1 of a new regime. Gonna take time. I was hoping we would've been a more competitive team this year but it looks like that won't be the case. What are we gonna do? This is only step 1--evaluating who on this roster is worth moving forward with. Step 2 will involve the trade deadline, possibly shedding more salary/opening up more cap room, the draft and free agency. Those are really the only things surrounding this team that are worth discussing at this point. Just have to remind myself it's about the big picture and not to get too worked up over the losing. I'm in full blown Yankees hot stove mode now--felt that way for a couple of weeks. Oh well..

Check the newspaper. We are 3-10. You honestly think we are 3-10 because of only Tim Haraway's defense? That's what that MSG program would have us believe. And you fell for it.
I can't be mad at Wally for pointing out the obvious. I am one of THJ's biggest fans, but that has always been one of my criticisms of him. He knows NOTHING about defense, and he knows it. What I want to know is who in the world is coaching defense to our boys?
Knicks1969 wrote:Good coaches like Carlisle, Vogel, thibodeau, and others always find ways to get maximum output out of marginal talents. It is all about coaching. Great coaches inspire players to be good and go out every night to play hard.
Yeah, like all those coaches were great 10 games into their careers
It is all about temperament. Fish might turn out to be a hell of a coach, but you can tell very early that he is not an engaging coach on the sideline. He is not shouting out instructions even when guys are out of positions or running the wrong plays, and that does not sit well with me. Carlisle is not vocal also, but he is engaging.

Give him to find his style- JKidd looked awful at the start of last season and everyone was ridiculing him- they're not laughing now.

I will wait, I am patient. JKidd was and is still very animated on the sideline
Frankly I think Fisher is doing well to get 3 wins out of this roster.

Seriously???? Fishers mismanagement of some of our players is the reason why we are so sloppy as a team. Why have Amare on the court at the same time with Carmelo? Why a different starting lineup per game? Yyyyyyy
Nah, I was exaggerating a bit, but as this team proved last season, and is in the process of proving this season, they're not very good.

NO. I saw him in a couple of games at GSW. Hor-ri-ble
