Next defensive possession same pick and roll with Melo, Thomas wide open 3.

He is really the problem on D.

He ball watches. Rosen was harsh but dead on about Melos game.

Isaiah Thomas is pretty THE reason Boston wins. He just takes over and is such a tough guy to cover. Knicks have to figure out a way to TRAP Thomas and take the ball out of his hands.

Just noticed that Kuz' shiner from the Atlanta game is very much in evidence.

Melo to Kuuuuuz - nice!
nixluva @ 1/18/2017 8:57 PM
Kuz just keeps on moving!!!

Thomas getting the superstar call. That should have been a no call
NYKBocker @ 1/18/2017 8:59 PM
Melo with the amare defense

Gotta say - I'd much rather be playing Holiday with the starters than Baker.

I like both. I can go either way.

so far though we are doing our job...isiah has scored 31 points and we are up 4 in the 3rd...that means we are stopping all the other guys

Baker had an impossible task trying to guard Isaiah! Statistically Baker is our best defender.

Finally catching end of the game and Plumlee is playing. Has he been good?
crzymdups @ 1/18/2017 9:02 PM
Melo with that whistle in the ear thing again - just another way he pisses off the refs.

I agree
SocraticBallin22 @ 1/18/2017 9:02 PM
Man...If Rose got half the calls that Thomas did driving to the basket!

Melo can't even get any respect from the officials lol

Defensive statistics mean very little to me. Baker has a good rating in a lot of ways because he plays hard in 4th quarter when the Knicks are down 20-30pts and Baker gets to lead a fake comeback against the opponents bench.

Plumlee should start
