It's TERRIBLE offense. Too much one on one!


Agreed. When Lee or Thomas get stuck, nobody is moving off the ball to create a passing option. They look so defeated.

There's no excuse for how they get demoralized so easily!!! Jeff should play the bench guys and tell them to give max energy and push the ball.

agreed... there have been several foul calls this half that could have gone Knicks way...and have mostly gone the Bucks way

Seems like a nightly occurrence for this team ... it's really disappointing, and deflating as a team to never get calls ...if I'm a opposing coach I know this and tell my team to play the most agressive defense possible, refs don't blow the whistle for the knicks unless they absolutely have too

Also, tonight might have been a good night to have Plumlee active and not in Westchester. The Knicks need someone to stop Monroe. Noah, KOQ and KP can't do it.

Its the same tune of the past decades, but this team really looks like they hit their high point a month ago and have already packed it in. Melo is a huge disappointment and I think I'm ready ti turn to the dark side on him.

I've reached that point as well. Have tried to keep the faith but it's just not happening and sad to say it never will. Melo's done in terms of being a leader and franchise player, we need to aatempt to get what we can from the Clippers (or whoever) whilst we still can. We need to rebuild around KP with no Melo getting in the way.

A question for such informed fans that have been watching this game closely. What is Melo's +/-? KP's? How many turnovers did we have to start 2nd Quarter with Melo on the bench? I'll wait...

I'm at a loss to understand why Plumlee gets no run!!! Seems to me we get MAX EFFORT from him and it matches the energy of the youngsters. He is PHYSICAL and we need that.

Yeah. Monroe has been a monster in both games. Great passing and unstoppable on passing.

It's way more than that though isn't it. It's the whole culture of the club. Its the loser mentality and the fact we don't now even look a play off contender in a weak East. It's time to cut our losses and rebuild properly. We need rid of Melo to do that. That's the brutal reality.

How do you propose that happens with the No Trade Clause.

NoT my job man. Dolan pays someone a MILLION DOLLARS A MONTH to get shit done. The KP draft pick aside he's doing a pretty brutal job of it so far.

Cartman718 @ 1/6/2017 9:34 PM
Make that 6 assists
nixluva @ 1/6/2017 9:35 PM
Finally making some smart plays. KP looks sharp.

no one can trade him unless he waives the NTC...how do you not get that

I get so effing tired of a call being made anytime we breathe on an opposing player going to the hoop yet we consistently get hammered in the same situation and no whistle.
