      We have to have the WORST half-court offense in the NBA. Not to mention the WORST defense in the NBA right now. When you let bums like Sheldon Williams who can't even beat his wife in a pick-up game & some dude from over-seas go off, you deserve to lose.

          Finally got a win.

          Only 15 3's, got to the line 39 times, led by Gallo going 16-17 from the line.

            Not gonna get overly excited, but a win on the road is always important.
            Only watched the 1st half. Really pleased with how we fought back in the 2nd quarter after going down 15.

            Finally gallo looked like a smart aggressive player out there. Maybe the comment by pringles about being confident with their shots lit a fire under some guys.

            Gallo hasn't had game like this in a while. Hopefully it carries over into GS

              AR didn't get into the game.

              Another Marbury/Nate situation going on there.

                That's another knock on D'Amphony. His dog house is pretty big.

                  And it hardly ever makes any sense. It doesn't seem like he communicates with guys as to why they are being benched. At least tell them so they can improve on it.

                    I'm pretty sure D'Amnphony makes AR feel like a D-League player in practices.

                    You can just tell by AR's face in games..especially when he messes up.

                    If he doesn't play him at Golden State (former team)...then it's clearly personal.

                        Love this quote.

                        "Right now, it's all about the Knicks. We'll worry about individuals after we get out of the hole a little bit. And then we'll start talking about long-term strategies. But right now, it's just to win today."

                        Great planning there, D'Antoni. Lets not worry about developing these guys for the long haul. All that matters is whether or not they hit three pointers today.

                          Solid win. For 3 quarters we looked great. 4th quarter was pretty bad, stopped playing defense, and the ball movement stopped, but Gallo's shooting saved us.

                          Big game tomorrow, can't afford a letdown.

                            I didn't watch the GS game but D'Amnphony went with an 8-man rotation...on the 1st of a back to back...out West?

                            Chalk up an L tonight against the Clips.

                            I don't like this man. So AR is going to develop into this freak of nature that most expected him to become....in practice?



                            You're gonna run Amare (knees and all) almost 40 minutes in the first of a back to back and not give AR no minutes against the team you trading him from?

                            Wow.....

                            They go out on a limb to find AND sign Moz and he's getting DNPs?

                            I guess he only wants Offensive players on the floor. Guys who can score the ball.

                            Sad...just sad.

                            Guys like Oakley, Xavier McDaniels and Anthony Mason might've never gotten off the bench if D'Amnphony coached them.

                                I'm not so much against the 8-man rotation. I like a tight team, though it does seem wasteful to not use Mozgov or Randolph, even if only for spurts at a time.

                                The issue is like you said, they have a game tonight. They were up big in the third which seems like a good time to go to the bench before the fourth, but D'Antoni stuck with his same rotation and nearly blew the game because of it.
