Also fish held the sec unit in way to long
If only Thomas threw a better pass. If only Fisher would have ran Melo and Afflalo off of screens instead of Iso Melo. If only the bench didn't get roasted twice and give up double digit leads.

no! again, rolo helped on lin who ran lose twice.
The guy inbounding the ball has to face more pressure! Gotta have your longest player on that!

Home cooking on the clock work. If this game was at MSG, KP's shot woulda had time to go in. What can you do. Hope we get some home cooking on Friday at the Garden.

Every Knicks coach in recent history had turned the iso ______ (insert best scorer) on the last possession.
Before Melo it was Jamal Crawford. Before Crawford it was..Marbury I think.
I have no problem with your best shooter taking the last shot but I don't understand why we can't have Melo run off a double screen or an elevator screen (two bigs closing like elevator doors on Melo's defender).
I would prefer ANYTHING to simply tossing the ball to Melo and asking him to create against the other team's best defender + the other 4 defenders.
+100000
I would be ok with that but Melo likes melo macho island

If KP had taken Briggs advice we would all be popping the cork on the champagne right now

I really wanted to forget that guy existed in my Knicks universe. The fact that we have to bring him up can only mean something horrible has happened.

ISO Ball is simply ugly losing ball.
Hornets won with an inbounds backdoor cut to Cody Zeller.

That's been an issue for the past 5yrs. No set play, just dump the ball to Melo. Whether its Woodson or Fish calling it

Yeah, I don't understand not having KP smothering the inbounder there. He wasn't even on the floor. Inbound play under the basket with 2.2 seconds left?? It'd be nice to have our 7'3" shotblocking rebounding machine in there next time.
This team could be very good and is pretty deep. If they can get over some growing pains and start to click look out.
We should have had 0.8 or 0.9 seconds on the clock. The shot would have been good. What's with these refs?
Oh yea, the post game show just reminded me to give Jose his props. The guy played excellent tonight.
