      K-Mart with 3 now and Tyson playing with 2.

      Wonder if we might get a Marcus Camby sighting?

            At first I didn't think much of that foul but on that second replay it looked like he hit KG's neck really hard. You can't just do that even in a non soft league.

            Beeing honest here, I don't really care.

                They aren't playing the game that got them to the 2nd seed. And before anyone says it's Boston's defense, it's not.

                There's just too much standing around. Too much isolation. 6 three point attempts isn't the Knick's game. Guys aren't moving the ball or passing it out.

                I'm not worried because I look at this first half and the Knicks just aren't playing their game, meanwhile Boston is playing as good as they can get right now and only up six.

                Second half has been the Knick's half all series. So let's see if that continues.

                  Woodson is putting too much faith in J-Kidd right now. Once again no Prigioni in the 2nd quarter, Knicks lose the lead.

                  Watch Prigioni start the 3rd, the Knicks make a nice run to start the quarter & Woodson will inexplicably take Prigioni out of the game

                    Barkley is funny.

                    He can't root for the Knicks because them winning makes him sound more like the numskull he is talking about how they wouldn't finish in the 2nd seed or even in the top 4.

                      I find chuck annoying and funny at the same time. The dude always tries to sound like he knows what he's talking about, but he doesn't. Did you hear the comment he made about kenny smith last night, or a week ago when he called james harden old. lol, barkley has his funny moments but sometimes i cringe when he speaks lol.

                        I've noticed that the worst thing that can happen to that Knicks team is Melo hitting his first 3 shots.

                        I wonder why they run so few p'n'r too. I can see Chandler not beeing the best p'n'r bigmen ever but still.

                          Boston is not playing as well as they can but that was a very solid 1st half.

                          Celtics played excellent defense, and more importantly very little turnovers in that half.

                          3rd Quarter key once again.

                              They ran quite a bit of PnR during the season with Chandler being the pick man at the top of the three point line.

                              But the Knicks aren't running that play this series and I don't know why.
