how is it a setback? We are playing well. Its a back to back and we are shorthanded. Cant win every game
Agree! It's not a setback. This is just one of those games.
Damn y'all making me sound like a hater...haha.
Losing to the Nets as bad as they have been, knowing this game was a "trap" game after yesterday, we were at high risk to lose is tough to take either way.
I don't think saying it's a setback is exactly a poor comment. A good team should be winning it, no?
exactly
Over 82 games you're get a game like this. A lot of things went wrong. No MELO! KP with one of his worst games! The Refs not calling a good game! Just not having the focus and energy on D!

why all the extreme hatred toward the nets? I want to beat them badly but i dont hate them. I dont question why nets fans are net fans either. Just beat them and move on
They ruined downtown Brooklyn? Their owner spent the last five years taunting Knicks fans? They're pathetic? They signed Bargnani?
its just about basketball, shouldnt be personal
Ok? In basketball terms I hate them because they are beating my team. Why do you care?
i dont care just wondering. No need to be nasty
How is anything I said nasty?
Take it outside, guys.
no... i wanna see... coz when 2 people are debating on here, Starks is quick to jump in and "referee". i wanna know how what crzymdups said is personal...he's talking about the Nets and Proko... unless Starks is related to either...I dont see anything personal
Hahahaha

Probably one of those nights where we should have gone 11-12 deep to cover Melo's mins.
I don't know what defines setback but they lacked mental toughness down the stretch.
Oh well. Hope they regroup and learn. If we miss the playoffs by a game this will sting of hat much more.

Nets are elite rim defenders, AA wanted no part of that. Left him to shoot jumpers, but couldn't get the space he needs because he wasnt going to the rim enough.
A friendly reminder Knick fans: Don't jinx the Knicks if the other team is trash

Oh geesh don't do that....Knicks1969 will be making threads about it.
I appreciate the effort Dwill brought tonight and AA fighting to the last second.

They also got off to a terrible start. It wasn't their night but the way they have been playing to lose to the Nets sucks.
What a stupid game to lose.

Tough back to back after the team stretched itself to win yesterday without Anthony, and you could see we were flat from the beginning of the game.
Pissed off, but I don't see this game as messing up our progress.

hahaha... hey its not one size fits all... a coach has to learn when deviating from the plan should be the plan...short term...i.e. for a particular game.
Had bad feeling about this game. KP was weak legged and took way too bad many shots and Lance Thomas didnt show up. Our legs on D in the 4th were done.
Jose cannot be our lead guard anymore at the end of games. I don't mind him playing the off guard, but he should no longer be handling the ball. Larkin was giving him so much trouble just bringing the ball up to half court and initiating the offense. I would have played KP at center, benched Rolo and had Jerian play the point with jose at the 2, if Fish wanted him in the game late. This is going to be a problem going forward.
does wally need to do something about those eyebrows? he's looking like frankenstein a bit

Agree. Last night they were automatic at FT line. Tonight they lost the game at it (and several other sub par performances)
