Bad 3rd Qtr. Gotta get refocused here!
Going forward, Knicks need to do something about the starting lineup with Calderon and ROLO because it's really hurting us right now. That lineup is too slow and gets us in early holes and blows leads.
D Will should have been in for K.O. to close.

They scored 18... but yeah they looked bad with Rolo on the floor. I don't like the way this team plays with Rolo on the floor lately.
I would look to move him to the bench or possibly trade him. I just don't know if he fits alongside Melo and KP

You've been waiting all night to find something to complain about but it's still funny how you can try to blame Fisher for these guys playing horrible on both sides of the court in that 3rd quarter and Fish has nothing at all to do with that.
The bigger lineup really struggles for NY. They shouldn't even run Porzingis/Quinn together, they should play either Quinn or Porzingis at 5. Playing big is really hurting the Knicks this season.
Some complacent play on our end and the Wolves looked tenacious. Made a game out of it.

I always thought Grant and D-Will were in the popular lineup

Only against a few teams......But for 90% of the teams we play, they are too slow.....

That unit has proven that they can play just fine together but they just aren't consistent and neither is any lineup right now that we put out there which was proven by that 3rd quarter.

Fish motivates the team during half time speechs...
Fish decided to bring back the same slow starting lineup....
Fish did not pull Rolo when it was obvious that he couldn't guard Towns on those 3 pt shots....

Every time a unit isn't playing well you guys pick something to complain about with who Fish has out there. These guys all can play just fine together and you can't keep blaming Fish every time whatever unit is on the floor isn't playing good.

I agree 100% with the Towns point. he could have just switched KP and Rolo's defensive assignment and it would have been a non issue.
KNICKS NEED JERIAN TO HELP PENETRATE!!!
knicks have exactly two fast break points.
Great move to have AA play with the 2nd unit with Melo out acting as the primary option in the post!
Afflalo has the MJ/Kobe guard post up down.
Man, I LOVE Afflalo in that low post. He's practically automatic down there.
It's a great bread and butter offense with Melo on the bench.
