Knicks are just pretty bad outside of Melo/KP. None of the other guys are consistently reliable on either end. Very tough to see - but at least on the bright side we have 2 very good players - many teams can't say they have 2 players at that level even if they have more good players in total.

Calderon trying to do his best Jimmer impersonation to keep his job lol

Felt we played better than the score indicates, should be up more than 2.

Nets also seem to play at a higher intensity when they face us.


Our offense, overall, looks much better in this game than recently. All 5 guys are looking for their shots and being aggressive putting more pressure on defense.


That's for sure. Afflalo's 1 on 1 stuff has all but gone, we're playing far more team ball with everyone being aggressive in looking to both pass and shoot.

However I'm worried about the defense a bit. We don't seem to defend very well - can't recall the last time we had a truly great defensive game.

As long as Jose is out there at point guard, our defense will struggle to get stops. I hope Rambo is smart enough to realize that he does not belong on the court as the lead guard in the last 5 minutes bc he is a defensive liability.


I guess you missed where Rambis said that the other players need to know that when Calderon is on the floor they need to give help defense to him? Everyone knows that his defense is bad but there is an actual thing called help defense and the other guys need to use it when he's out there.

lmao...I thought the same thing.
You know, I take that snarkiness back . . . and apologize.

At least Calderon WAS the 1 getting back . . .

Fratello slows down a broadcast just like he slows down an offense.

Our backup big rotation is as much of a problem as our starting PG.

I never thought I'd hate KOQ as much as I do.

Jose even makes a guy named Donald Sloan look good.

I agree. I thought he was a great pickup. Now I cringe when he subs in.

Toronto must be laughing their ass off. So basically we are gonna end up in the lottery again but with no pick.....being a knick fan is tough

Are you watching the game?? You need to let the Calderon hate go cause he's not even close to the problem right now.....you should watch the game.

Is this bad . . . or is this strange (?)

I mean . . . really.

This was a 22-22 team 4 weeks ago.

I'm not understanding this . . .
