Its frustrating Rose and Melo boneheaded decisions cost the team a good ten 10 points in the last 5 minutes

Melo is an ISO ball player. If you don't let him operate in ISO and score and draw double teams, then he is useless out there. That's his game.

Everyone out there has played fantastic outside of Melo and Rose. They should be up 20
Melo is supposed to be alpha and supposed to take it to the opposing defense. His shots have all been good looks that on another night either get called for fouls or go in. I am not happy how many he has missed but he has takem good shots.
Rose looked horrendous out of 1 play where he went coast to coast. He doesn't look at all good in touch, in regards to scoring the ball or does he seem to notice his teammates. Jennings is much more of a PG out there. I'd like Hornachek to give Jennings more time. As much as Jennings can be erratic with his shots, I love the way he is playing.
Rose should get another month to get in line and show he's better. But so far I have not been impressed with his play. He looks like he has lost his touch. Or perhaps he is just not used to playing in an offense where he is not dominanting the ball non-stop.
On the positive, Noah/Lee/Hernangomez/Jennings (4 additions to the rotation this year) all look very good. They look like they will fit fantastically with this team and system. Noah in particular has shown why Phil wanted him so bad. At least in terms of his skills, he is exactly what this team needs. Like a damn point guard out there. Unreal how good a facilitator he is.

Yeah that was a rough stretch. Also, he should get the benefit of the doubt going against Green.

Eh I also felt he did too much iso the last 5 minutes. The Knicks are always better when they are moving the ball and others guys like Lee and KP are killing it out there

breen said that was a sweet move i saw a circus shot that went in.

Competitive beast. Such a brilliant example of a professional ball player and leader for our younger players.
O'Quinn is having a great game.
Great to see the team spirit.
Where are the KOQ haters now?!? Did you see that outlet pass to KP for the And 1 slam?!? I said this last game, but he can pass like Noah as a big.
