well this has been a bad few days. First the rrangers dont show up and now the knicks pissed away this game
 
Tough loss, especially with Boston coming on Thursday. I'm really not a fan of Woodson playing Melo the entire second half. He's been doing that a bunch this year and gotten away with it but it didn't work tonight and it didn't work the first time we played Brooklyn. Melo had 2 points in the 4th and on that last jumper he just didn't have his legs under him and air balled it. Obviously you have to place some blame on Melo, but I don't like him logging heavy minutes...

Have to give Joe Johnson credit though. Made a bunch of threes in the 4th to give them the lead, took the defensive assignment of guarding Melo in crunch time and hit the game winner.

Anybody know of any streamo quality streams for knicks games?

I just can't justify spending that much on a subscription in addition to my NHL gamecenter.

A PM would be much appreciated.
 
This thread really died when the hockey season started up :laugh:

I'm guilty as well, rarely watch the Knicks anymore :dunno:

Had the game on in the background tonight. Felton was great. Chandler with 20 rebounds! Ridiculous.

Same here, hopefully they can destroy the Kings tomorrow.
 
Ye, I stopped watching them since hockey is back. Will try to catch some games down the stretch and all playoff games.
 
Im in TX so I bought the League Pass to watch all the games when the Knicks started so hot and the NHL was locked out... as a result, to get my money's worth I've actually kept up more with the Knicks than the Rangers so far this year.

Blaspheming on this board maybe but... whatever, lol.

GO MSG TEAMS
 
I've been watching every game but there's really no reason to post...we know what this Knicks team is.

Not as great as they were in the first month, not as bad as they were a few weeks ago. They're a very solid top 4 seed in the East, not a guaranteed 'ship contender but they could definitely get there if they played right.

Only thing that is slightly surprising to me is how awesome STAT looks. After his shaky start I was starting to think he really was done. Guy really shows how serious his dedication to the game and to the franchise is. He's looked absolutely great. Better on defense then old-STAT, and while he's not as explosive I really love how he's been posting up and just simply getting his points. I wouldn't mind some more pick and roll finishing centered around him but that's not his fault, that's the system. So happy he was able to get back and play at a level like this.
 
I guess the Knicks will continue sucking in the 1st half of the game for the rest of the season.
 
Held opponent to only 33pts at half time. Nice.

With Melo scoring 2 pts. lol
 
They need to get Wallace and Camby back to deal with the Bulls. White and Brewer are pretty useless. The whole team should be in mid-season form by April but they need the Bigs to deal with Noah, Boozer and Deng
 
I never did expect much from White, but then again he gets almost no PT so I really cant evalute him.

Brewer, however, Im surprised by his uselessness. He looked good in Chi but he's just been a mess here.

Yeah pretty much. Brewer hasn't been the same since hurting his hand (I think) early in the season. But that shouldn't have stopped him from being the good perimeter defender he was on Chicago. Guess he's a product of Thiboddeau's system.

Yep. I think Brewer going from elite lockdown perimeter defender to what he is now shows just how good a coach Thibs is.
 
Bump.....

It's the break and the Knicks still hold the 2nd seed. Huge game with Indiana coming up.

They really screwed up losing to Washington and Toronto, and now they're a very pedestria 12-11 in their last 23 games.

Lucky for them the conference sucks as a whole.
