    The Mavs are probably the worst possible team for Jeremy to try to get back on track against, especially with Smith and Melo coming back in. Marion shouldn't have a whole lot of trouble locking down a Melo that's not going to be in shape, Lin hasn't played a defender or an entire defense as crafty as Dallas and JR Smith, well, he's not in China anymore. Honestly, Dallas is gonna have to worry about Amare and Chandler more than anyone I think.

      lol SportsCenter is a joke. Cavs/Heat and Suns/Lakers highlights getting shown before Mavs/Sixers.

        To Lin's credit he has been pretty consistent turnover wise.

            Yes, a huge blowout and a 5th seed vs 12th seed matchup against a matchup between two of the top 3 teams in each conference that was a close game.

              No offense and no bench means tons of turnovers which translate to losses.

              Gentry is severely limited as a coach, and the roster he's been given isn't helping things. I imagine he gets fired in the offseason to go along with whatever we do in free agency. Get a real competent offensive coach, keep the defensive coordinator Elston Turner, and roll.

              Someone send up a bat signal for Dragic, Barbosa, and Lou, please.

                  But he only had 9. And he only had 1 in the second half. For all those 8 turnovers he had in the first half, the Knicks were only down by 4. So turnovers didn't lose the game.

                    Yup, but Lin turning the ball over so much because he's dribbling into a crowd too often and getting stripped or getting caught in the air trying to pass. Both things he can correct, but definitely helped cost the Knicks the game last night. Nine turnovers from your starting point guard, while having twenty one overall as team, and the opponent scoring (I believe) 32 points off turnovers will contribute to the loss. Lin needs to improve his decision making and not head into traffic so often. It'll also help him when he doesn't need to play 38+ minutes every game and won't be the primary ball handler 90% of the time he's in.

                      In non-Lin related news, why the heck is the Spurs/Clippers matchup a matinee game on Saturday afternoon? Who the hell thought that was a good idea? Not I don't know if I should head out, while risk missing the game, or stay in and get nothing done to watch the the game. Stupid ****ing NBA scheduling.......

                            Lol

                            Did you just say he ONLY had nine?

                            All those possessions that the offense never got a chance to even put up a shot definitely would have assisted towards the end of the game. To be critical, that's 18-27 points that the knicks may have missed out on
