OT: 2012-2013 NBA Discussion Thread: Defense? What is defense?

[AlternateSideParking]

I hate Ron Artest. I probably hate him because I'd love him on the Knicks.

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Refs starting to dictate the game. All non-shooting fouls is the indication.

 

[BroadwayBlues]

Melo needs to stop trying to post up Artest. Make quicker decisions with the ball. And run off screens.

They need to move the ball. Novack is useless without it.

 

[Clowes Line]

What's up with the Syracuse uniforms?

 

[BroadwayBlues]

The orange would look good if the numbers were blue.

 

[silverfish]

****ing D'Antoni's foot was in the court. Whatever, ball don't lie, Kobe

 

[Kakko]

Up by 1 against the refs? I'll take it

 

[Kakko]

****ing D'Antoni's foot was in the court. Whatever, ball don't lie, Kobe

****ing ball was never out

 

[Melrose Munch]

Knicks will take this

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Felton's starting to piss me off.

He better hit a clutch 3 or win this game.

 

[Kakko]

Kobe doesn't get a technical for whining like a little *****. Never would have guessed that!

 

[silverfish]

To be fair, that was a horrendous call be the refs. So clearly off 'Melo

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Tough game...what can you do?

Nash tortured Felton today.

 

[BroadwayBlues]

I can't believe Woodson ran a play for JR over Melo out of a T/O.

You gotta give the ball to your best player there.

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Knicks only made 5 FG in the 4th qtr.....

Thank God we're done with the Lakers.

Smith isn't a bad option.

 

[BroadwayBlues]

Smith isn't a bad option.

No he's not. But you stand a better chance with Melo making that shot. Smith is too erratic.

But Melo's missed two game-ending shots against Brooklyn and Dallas.

I dont have an issue with the play call as much as:

1) Brewer sucks
2) Novak's been invisible for four games
3) Why does Felton continue to take 20 shots a game

I keep telling ya'll this is going to be problem. Felton lovers keep ignoring this. This is not a slump. Dude just can't shoot or hit a layup.

He wants to be the hero late in these close games. He's cost them at least a couple of games with this nonsense.

It's like watching Starks' game 7 over and over and over again.

Felton took 4 shots in today's fourth quarter. One of which was off getting his own rebound, it was unfortunate that layup didn't drop. I agree he's shooting too much, but I disagree on your beliefs that this isn't a slump. It is. He's rattled so many in-and-out shots recently its bizarre. Those will start falling.

The biggest problem with this Knicks team right now, IMHO, is rebounding. But that comes with the territory where most games Melo is starting at the 4.

Can't wait for a healthy Stoudemire.

 

[Kershaw]

If Shumpert is healthy, this is a blowout.

 

[Kaapodonna]

If Shumpert is healthy, this is a blowout.

This! Or its a win with either Sheed or Stats in. All 3 of them? No contest

Or they hit their free throws.

Except your narrative doesn't fit what ACTUALLY happened today, try again. We lost because of missing key FT's, not because of Felton hero ball in the 4th. You're literally making things up.

Can't wait until Stat is back. Dude is gonna terrorize second units with Pablo.
