What the Pacers have been doing to us has absolutely nothing to do with Noah though.
Noah was -6 in 6min. Since he went out Knicks have out scored the Pacers by 2 and played much better D.
I'm not doing this with you again after you were complaining about Noah the whole game he was in the other night but he had 15 boards in 20 minutes...lol

He was one big reason they lost a close, winnable game.
This unit always seems to play well. Wildly looks good again. Low post game is great and you could run an offense thru it
It's just crazy that Holiday and Willy don't get regular burn..
Willy has the old man post game on lock. He got a Reggie Miller...r u kidding me?

KP does cut but they don't really pass to him when he's with Rose n Melo. Not like BJ does. Willy is the best cutter tho!
That's because he sets better screens which create a better passing opportunity.

Notice how the defense actually improves with Willy too?
I seem to recall getting beaten up by guys around here a couple of weeks ago for suggesting that he might be starter material at that time.He is very basic...does the things he knows he can do...and was groomed to do in Spain, but I think the will become a much better offensive player over the next few years, especially from midrange.
I'm pretty sure everyone has liked Billy and the upside he has since we first saw him unless i missed anyone saying they didn't think so.
BJ has played well tonight. Kind of gives you an idea of the kind of improvement a legit PG would make for this team. Can we still trade for RUBIO?

They've missed him a number of times tonight, and there was one time when Lee should have gotten it too him much earlier, but waited too long.
Bottom line is this team is underachieving in a big way. We have too many good pieces to have the sucky record that we do.
Willy is +13 right now. He was +13 last game too.
He needs to be playing 28-32 minutes a game.

That's a GREAT point. KP does the fake screen thing which is not as effective.

Tonight he's playing better but i know you'll agree that he's been bad for a while cause i always see you talking about how bad he's been in the gameday threads.
