Knicks · GameThread: Cavs in town tonight, Melo audition? (page 5)

What a sho! 30 footer!! Oh boy!

Second unit shows what ball should be. Imagine ur top talent doing that

We'd have 55 wins

Nothing like the ingenious defensive strategy of Kurt Rambis switching every time on the screen and having KP and Willy guard Lebron. Let's play Russian Roulette!

And that is what a superstar does.

I actually thought KP played some good defense on Lebron - and that Lebron was struggling with how to attack KP.

Can't do it every time, which we do.

It is bizarre. Phil in Chicago and LA had good defensive teams.

Now we're jokes

The team needs to be free of Melo

It's a fucking disgrace. These guys literally switch every play. Lebron was one on one with a center no shortage of two dozen times.

We lost the game on the free throw line tonight.

Can't be competitive if KP is going to constantly commit stupid fouls.

I'm taking nothing from this fake comeback except we didn't get embarrassed. It doesn't change the fact that we can't contain the ball or guard the 3 point line. We are going nowhere. Team seems to play better with Melo not on the court. We got KP and Willy up front--let's get Baker some burn the rest of the year, maybe get another young player and a 1st for Melo, and dive head first into the tank.

Those in favor say Yay

Totally ridiculous pass by James to Love...he's making the drive with that pass in mind-he knows KP will come in for the block.

Rambis's strategy is to have Willy and KP guard Lebron at the 3 point line extended. It's working wonders.

He is not the coach.

Also D is effort. Hard to be good when your top player gives varying effort on D

Melo 6-21 shooting 17 points

can't have your top two players shoot 9 for 30

If Mark Jackson calls Willy Gomez one more time, Willy should chop him in the throat.

The switching seems to be done more and more these days- No way we did it this much earlier in the year.

Yeah, Melo.

However, the Knicks looked better coached, more focused, and generally a better _team_ tonight than I've seen most of the year. Melo and KP were iffy, at best but, I dunno, maybe Rose sitting out make the difference.
