Nice finish by Billy "don't call me Willy" HermanMunsterGomez first bucket as a Knick!
C. Lee looking like a solid 2 way 2 guard.

Nope me either but lets not any of us start over reacting over the first preseason game but KOQ is soooo inconsistent that we just gotta get used to him having good games and many bad games, luckily we have Hermangomez now
So far I'm loving what I'm seeing. The talent level of the team shows. The Knicks have been running the offense well just missing shots while Houston is playing like a DAntoni team driving and kicking.
Im hoping that Noah will do a better job of directing traffic than KOQ. Will do a better job of getting KP involved.

Ohhhhh gosh are we about to go through another year of gameday threads of everyone arguing about what's the triangle and how much triangle are we playing?? I sure hope not.
i have no idea. i didnt participate on gameday threads last yr. just typing what i see
Really?? Come on now, you were in the gameday threads last year weren't you??
Willy nice pass out of the post to Jennings for a great look at a 3 (he missed, but still)

agree
Willy gets good position down low.
N'Dour gets an early call into the game. I like that.

actually no i wasnt. during the season i have the knicks on the main tv but im watching 4 games on nba league pass.
N'Dour looks no worse for wear post injury, still looks fast.
Gotta say: 3 or 4 shots going in and out so far . . .
Lots of rust to shake off. Shots just not falling. Defense not great so far.
Fact: Knicks have pushed the pace more in the 1st quarter of the 1st preseason game than they did all last year.
We're missing a lot of high % shots so far--offense looking good.

Nice, a true NBAer
That hook shot by Willy saved my life... if it went in I would have declared it my lord and savior

Our shots aren't falling and the Rockets are all hitting 3's
Jennings nice pick and roll - splits the double team (when was the last time we had a PG who could do that??) - gets and open shot for Justin Holiday (which misses of course)
Team still looks pretty raw. They've got a long way to go, but some intriguing elements have been added to the mix.
The fact that we just played a full first quarter with a good PG who could get penetration at all times between Rose and Jennings was nice.
Saw a LOT more pick and roll in the first quarter than we saw most of last year from the Knicks. Lots more pushing the pace, too.

Someone has to replace Rolo's horrendous looking hook from last year...

That's it in a nut shell. Not going to last.

Yeah he was a little strong with it but his nerves have gotta be kicking in big time right now. He'll be fine under the basket. All of our big men are really good passers even KOQ.

I'm not paying any attention to Rockets score at all.
I'm focusing entirely on how Knicks offense sets up . . .
