Of course it they played better earlier they wouldn't be down as much but then Charlotte was el fuego too....

McDermott threw his hat into the starting 3 ring tonight. The team has new guys stepping up each night.

Frank was good on D but suspect on O. Must improve and I am sure he will. He has all the tools and more importantly the guts.

KP - what can you say. The finger roll was unreal...7'3" from the 3 pt line with 2 secs to shoot it....no problem..I'll lay it in!

THe team has changed its culture. Big step.


I think your point about changing the culture is huge. This is a really likable team.

Jeff is a good coach. His adjustments have been great lately

This entire franchise has come together and it’s BEAUTIFUL.

GREAT WIN! Whew - this team is really playing well & the Coach deserves some credit - pushing the right buttons late in the game. McDermott had some HUGE baskets & thrilled to see KP as the leader of this team. Last year Melo would have taken all the final shots & let's be honest - Melo rarely made clutch let alone game winning shots. GO KNICKS!

Howard has always been a dirty player so i dont think it would happen too often. Although i agree it would wear him down more

Dirty? I'm told KP is filing an assault report with the NYPD as we speak.

Comeback wins are the best, and JH is doing a fabulous job

Frank is also gradually displaying some of the skills people were concerned about. Mainly his handle and getting in the paint. It may surface more slowly than some of the other rookies but I'm confident he has it in him.

The Garden was ROCKING!!! What a pleasure to once again see D being played well by the Knicks!

Agreed. I liked how KP respectfully told Timmy to slow it down. The othee night he trusted frank to take the big shot. We finally have a elite player

Howard has hurt some guys where they missed multiple games. I was a bit worried. Pretty sure KP winked at Dwight when Dwight got called for the last non shooting foul.

he was more clutch in Denver to be honest BUT KP looks like a elite player

That fat bastard missed every last second shot i saw him take.

i wasnt defending him. I agree with you. I was just saying whenever he actually did hit a clutch shot it was mostly his Denver days

how about defending your position to not pay KOQ 12 per lol? should be easy enough for you to figure out what you'd pay him to keep him.

Damn its really that important to you this very instant lol. Like i said i still believe he will be traded. I dont want to trade him but he should fetch a good return

i mean andrew didn't ask you how much you'd pay him to keep him. he asked me and i said 12 per, but you jumped into the conversation saying that's too much. well then if that's too much you must have a number in mind that you think is not too much, and if you don't...maybe you should stop objecting to others' estimations?
smh.

Now lets get a road win. These comebacks are less likely on the road so we need to tighten some things up.

Excuse me? I wasnt trying to object to anything. This is a message board right? Last i checked i was very respectful to you and respected your opinion. Anyway dont worry this will be my final post to you. Goodbye

I was impressed with how Frank adjusted to Kemba and Monk and Made them take tougher shots.
