What is up with the free throw shooting for Melo and Fields?? Its such a simple shot. Make it!

Do you keep Woodson as head coach if the knicks continue to win? It seems the players have a high level of respect for him.

I liked last game when Fields threw his hands up then quickly walked to the bench. Reminded me of the times you would try to back talk a respected figure then walk away when you realized what you did.

Yeah they should keep him. I think he's a good coach. Loved how he yelled at Lin for fouling at the end of the game and giving up a 3 pt play. You gotta let players know when they're ****ing up. No Dantoni bull around here anymore.

If we get out of the first round of the playoffs or, as the 8 seed, really challenge Miami/Chicago then I'd sign him. Also, if Phil turns us down then I don't know if there are many better options anyway.

Gutsy win by the Home Team. Just watched the game on my DVR. STAT was a Beast tonight & who would've thought Jeremy Lin would take the game over in the 4th. scoring 16 pts.

Once again our Defense play big-time. Man I'm feeling giddy inside right now.

Ok - I'm on board.

I didn't buy the wins against the Pacers and Blazers - both played horribly.

I didn't buy the win against Toronto - it's still Toronto.

But THIS... THIS win gave me what I wanted to see.

This will probably get glossed over but the re-emergence of Stat has been huge for us. Maybe HE needed the change... maybe he needed to lose some weight and get back into his old form... but Stat is absolutely killing it for us.

BTW, every time Smith gets the ball to end a half he does the same exact thing - drive to a back step... from the 3 point line. Really JR?

JR is a chucker. He's our Jamal Crawford. At least he's part of the second unit.

Do we finally get over .500 this weekend?
We better.

As far as the playoff hunt....
Now it seems the division is not out of the question anymore.
3 back with the tiebreaker, 19 to go.

Feeling good. Amazing what a little effort can do.

JR is better than Jamal. He doesn't dribble as much, plays great defense, and is a better outside shooter. No complaints from me about him so far, hes a vital part of our team.

Not complaining. Just saying he is our team chucker. Every team has one.

I find this weird.

Philly is up 3 on the Knicks.
Boston is up 2.5.

Philly plays Boston tonight and we actually want Boston to win because even though they'd be in first place by .5 over Philly, a win would mean the Knicks move into 2.5 behind first place.

It makes sense but seems odd at the same time.

Been quiet in here lately.

What did you guys think about the W tonight.

Needed that win with the Bucks coming to town tomorrow. Especially after stinking up the joint in Toronto on Friday.

Hope STAT & Lin are OK. Both got hurt in the 2nd half. Hopefully Melo starts to heat up cause we're gonna need him down the stretch

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

Missed the win against Detroit, but did see that abysmal performance against the Raptors. Knicks couldn't buy a bucket and their intensity was noticeably lacking in comparison to Toronto's.

Nice to see another double digit win and defensive shut down even if it was against the Pistons.

Knicks have to beat these teams.

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

great thing about a team 24 hours after a blow out, not much time to stew over the loss.
You can get right back out there and wreck shop, as the Knicks did.
Bring on the Bucks.
