There we go KP. Baker looking good. On both sides.

Luke Skywalker giving us good minutes at the backup pg.

Why is Willy out of the rotation? Noah back in.

KP's high-post/mid range game can be literally unstoppable. Yet the offense is designed for him to float around the 3pt line. I don't understand that. He scores effortlessly in the right spots.

KP's lack of fluidity on defense leads me to believe that his achilles may be more of a problem than he's letting on.

Noah is not having the same impact without Melo in there.

He's been terrible on D today. Not getting back down the court allowing Millsap layups. Sleeping on the backdoor with Dunleavy.

His defensive IQ is very low

Agree but did you see how he was unable to seal his man for post pass. Then went out to 3pt. line. Think he is best when they set screens for him and he can catch and shoot. Just dont think he has the weight/fundamentals to pot up yet.

Knicks offense looking much more fluid and crisp. Good ball and player movement and they seem to know what they want to do. Coincidence with Rose out?

KP looks comatosed out there--having a really bad game.

Melo feeling refresh...carrying the load
SocraticBallin22 @ 1/29/2017 3:58 PM
With Melo, KP and Lee out there, we have 3 plus shooters on the court--Horny can really exploit that in the half court set--as we're seeing today.

The difference is all his shots are in rhythm and good looks.

How is that a coincidence...Rose is a ball hog

I have been seeing that for a few weeks..

I love it when Klay Thompson wears his Melo costume.
