Yes, that is a mature way of reaction as a grown man.

I agree but no point in starting Noah at all. Just make him a 12 min per game Reserve.

Very happy for team. Hope this is a turning point.

More Willy. More holiday. Jeff needs to use what's working

KP had a bad game. We need him and we need him to play smart.

Honest to God, I thought we would lose that game. Melo closed this one out.
But I think Jeff let the pacers back in by killing or flow. Need to settle on rotations.

But damn it's good to see Reggie Miller cry

So nice, say it twice. Do you really know why he was laughing? I do

With Rambis and phil on board, you gotta believe his hands are some what tied.

I think a lot of politics go into some of his bad coaching. Like can he really bench Noah? Phil's big signing? Does he have the juice to get Melo and Rose to move the ball?

But yeah the main thing I need to see from him is a consistent bench rotation and more time for Willy and Holiday. And better usage of KP. I'm not sure what happened with KP - it seemed to be the perfect system for him before he was hurt. Maybe the injury is still lingering.

Half way point and it's still a disjointed group..No rhythm with each other..

Knicks wins. Knicks Wins.

Melo has been scoring very efficiently and tonight I only notice a couple of bad defensive moments. One was in the 4th were he fell asleep ball watching and was late to close but the Pavers missed the 3. Overall a decent defensive effort trying to help in the post while making sure his man was still were he left him
WaltLongmire @ 1/23/2017 10:50 PM
Looked at Willy's game log...when he gets 20+MPG he puts up good numbers on a very consistent basis.

How does this team win in Boston and in Indiana against two teams that are great home teams and playoff bound and then lose at home to Phenoix as well as Washington

Just will never get this team

We have so much better talent than our record indicates

Really good games from Willy, Melo and Rose

Our team actually played some defence wow !!!

holfresh @ 1/23/2017 10:52 PM
Holiday has to play ahead of Kuz for defensive purposes..Bury Noah..

I do it still. It is kind of a defense mechanism- if you put your face into a smile you stay cool. Nothing to do with not taking something seriously.

You take away those 4 bad shots at end of 3rd, which he does when left in too long, and 2 end of shot clock 3's, he had to take. He is 9 for 11. Liked that he went down low at end. Must of heard me yelling.

Yeah I hope he at least gets a consistent 20 per game from now on. When even Reggie Miller is screaming it, you know there's got to be something to it.

PGs get the ball to the open man...should be no need to demand it...sorry.

Wake me up when we have a real pg again

For real. It would make all the difference.

Walt is right that KP shouldn't have to demand the ball. At the same time he should send a message to Rose that he's tired of not getting any touches.

If I were KP and I got tired of being frozen out, I would do my level best to embarass Rose in practice, no cheaps shots. Put a little mustard on those blocks. Might respect that more than asking him to share the rock. Eventually he'll get the message.

I cant think of a worse move than bringing back Rose so he can call his own number ad nauseum.

Figure since you posted twice... Used to do it a lot when I was a coach to keep me under control after a ref or one of my kids screwed up.

You see coaches on the bench do it all the time.
