Agree. But when your starting back court is a defensive liability they have to score. You can't overcome poor defense and no scoring. Phil needs to make a move and Fisher needs to change his line up.
Totally agree.
Hard to believe what we just saw.
Melo completely disappears and went Iso Melo
The best defensive C, Rolo, sat the entire 4th quarter when they were getting killed inside
Grant was subbed for Vujash!t
Another positive KP with another monster game and double double way to get yours KP and play great team defense

dude, he botched the game with his rotation, when you have a unit on the floor thats clicking, you let it go, you don't take players out because it's time. Look how long kidd left monroe on the bench because henson had it going.
Fisher better NEVER do that again.

Yea Jose really puts us in early holes as well as Sasha
I see the value in keeping Sasha on the roster, but he shouldn't be playing. He was a deep rotation guy, even in his prime. But we have him starting now? We've got one useless veteran in the starting backcourt. Why do we need two?
Correct me if I'm wrong: Melo doesn't look like he's buying into the system at crunch time . . .
Yea Phil needs to help fish with his subing

Hope his highlights are plastered all over espn. Usually the Knicks are the ones being posterized.

Crunch time tonight was chaos because of the horrible subbing.
And having a no defense starting back court with 2 total points is just plain unacceptable... There needs to be a change
Calderon had his fair chance -- all the players got to see that.
Now it's time to change.

Can't blame him, this wasn't a good night for Fisher, hopefully it will be a learning experience. Pretty sure Phil will point out where he f'ed up. Starting Grant and Galloway, would probably give him some breathing room.
I'm going to bed. Thanks to all for posts tonight . . .

Absolutely but how do you overcome 2 pts and bad defense from your starting back court?
Okay, so here's a question: If AA is indeed going to play on Sunday, who should the starting backcourt be?

His 4th qtr was bad but he only took 3 shots. Of course he had two turnovers that didn't help. One behind the back pass to Kris thinking he was going to pop instead of roll. Then the second on a silly timeout play having melo go PnR with Lopez on the wing after Fisher put Grant in but that's not what makes it so dumb, all year long teams has been icing/trapping the side pnr. So by running that with lopez you bring another 6'10 guy to help a 6'11 guy trap melo.

I think you have to try him with Jose but I think you have a quick hook. Fifteen minutes seems like fourteen too many for Jose so far.

Agreed on the post game they commented on fishers poor subbing leaving grant in too long and Rolo on the bench too long it also made me realize KP needs another 15 lbs before he can play center

Yea I have to say Jose has to be benched for ether grant or Gallo
Melo 6 assist
0 in the 4th quarter

Galloway should start and insert Afflalo.
But Hose-zay has some pics of Fisher in a see through thong, so he starts again.
