I wouldn't say that but his iso definitely contributed to the collapse. KP and Baker also made terrible plays late so its really a team lost.

He got over his head....came out of his swim lane.....stepped out of his sand box.
This is where KP needs to learn from Melo. Regardless what coach calls in crunch time, the team always knew to play through Melo. And KP had the ball, but passed it to Lee......KP needs to develop a go to move going to the basket....or run a pick and roll with Frank. But those mid range jumpers is never a good go to move in crunch time....Especially when they are getting layups on the other end.

I think KP touched the ball both times, but passed it off to Lee. At least thats what happened on the last play.
Not sure what they were really trying to do both times. This is where they miss THJ. He’s a bit better creating off the dribble and attacking the rim. Being a bit quicker and more explosive.

This. KP had a good bounceback game but WTF was he thinking with that shot? Baker also made a risky pass that obviously backfired
but what i like it was very close game, little more luck and we could win this one

There is absolutely nothing to learn from Melo.

I don't mind losing these kinds of games as a young team. It's a learning lesson for both players and coaches. I'm sure they will all look at film and kick themselves. KP would see that was a bad shot. Coach will see some better plays.

This. Tim is another guy that wants the ball in big moments.

They just talked about this on the post game. There is something to be learned from Melo.

KP told Rebecca that he planned on "putting on a show" tonight. If there is anything about Porzingis that gives me pause, its the trash talk that too often ends up just being talk.
KP might become an All-Star this season. At the same time, hope he isn't becoming a Diva as well.

I’m sorry but they are out of their wack a do minds. Melo is absolutely useless player a simple product of shots. No defense and just a pile of crap.

You make a fair point. As much as i like KP and his confidence i think sometimes he goes overboard both on the court and off the court sometimes. I still dont like that he blew off the exit meeting and basically ignored the knicks all summer.

Have no problem with KP skipping that exit meeting, considering the complete disfunction across the board. Its the checks KP is writing that his game has yet to cash when it matters, that bothers me. Maybe its a matter of growing up.

Yes you are right about the dysfunction last year but i still feel he should have at least went. As for the trash talk i dont necessarily mind it as long as it doesnt get out of hand.

Doesn't it have to be concerning though that on back to back nights the team fell apart in the last 2 minutes? Something like 6 turnovers in the last 2 minutes combined. Yes, they beat the Celtics last night but that was in spite of how they closed the game offensively. I'm personally not impressed with Hornaceck's offensive sets. They usually turn the ball over after timeouts.
Tonight was a winnable game and a chance to go to 18-14. It's a huge missed opportunity.

I don't mind trash talk but please back it up. Who cares about 29 points if it takes you 28 shots to get there and you take a really bad shot in the final two minutes which was the turning point in the game. I don't him taking a 3pointer there but he really rushed it and shot before he ever got set. The thing that bothers me about KP is he predetermines what he is going to do instead of letting the game come to him or adjusting to how they are playing him.
