    Glad the schedule is starting to lighten up going into December. Still can't believe we're over .500 at this point.

    i actually like Lou's toughness. just felt he should clean up the glass more than trying to score. get the ball and give to melo!

      Yea, but O'Quinn can bring toughness too, and do other things. I like Lou as a guy to have on the team, and maybe contribute against certain teams, but I don't see why he should be a regular guy in the rotation.

      His rotations aren't the only reason the offense sucked last game, and so far tonight, but we have way too many extended stretches with no offense on the court.

        they just cant stop nobody. just finish watching the knicks magic game. something is wrong with their defensive strategy. they just wouldnt stop fouling people. c'mon let the game play on and stop those silly fouls.

        luv those blocks by kp6 though. if not for him, the game would have been a blow out.

          Its because Fisher wasn't playing much Grant & GAllo. Calderone was hitting his shot tonight, but that means he plays extended minutes.. Oladipo got at least 15 free throws. smh

            It was just a couple weeks ago I was praising the team for playing hard in the second half.

            What happened lately?

            They play the second half as if scared to lose. Too much ball holding, too much iso, no ball movement. There's no fun in the second half at all.

              Shot 58% and lost.

              I was livid at the shot Lance Thomas took at the end of regulation. They were trying to get it to Afflalo in the post where he hadn't been stopped all night, and Thomas just gets inpatient and jacks up a long 2 over Dwight.

              Serpahin contributed a lot but had some awful turnovers.

              15 minutes for Lopez?

                  DEREK ****ing FISHER. The guy is in love with Calderon. 38 mins for that bum last night. I hate watching this team cuz of him. As a point guard in the NBA how the **** can he be ok with what Calderon is doing on the court and not see how much better Grant is?
                  Calderon in 38 mins last night 7pts 4 assists 5 rebounds 5 turnovers 2-7 shooting
                  Grant in 11 mins 7pts 2 assists 1 rebound 3-3 shooting


                  Calderon doesn't get assists, doesn't get to the rim, plays terrible defense, commits turnovers wtf are you giving him soo many minutes for??

                  Not just that but Knicks were down 20 with 4 mins to go against Miami and still Fisher leaves that Bum out on the court instead of giving his rookie some much needed playing time.

                  I've seriously had it man. All these games are winnable, the coach has no clue.

                      That's what I'm saying. This coaching-on-the-fly is killing the team.

                        I mean, Grant only gets like 1 more assist per 36 than Jose. The defense comment is spot on, but Jerian can't score. He's shooting 38% and 18% from 3. José is 45 and 40%.

                        Williams and O'Quinn should be playing more. 2nd and 4th on the team in PER and they play 25 minutes a game. Combined.

                          C'mon man. He scored the same amount of points in 27 less mins last night. I don't care that Jose is shooting well. What else does he do? Does he drive and collapse the defense? No. Can he shoot off the dribble? No Does he get to the free throw line? No Can he play a lick of defense against the quickest players in the nba out on the all important perimeter?? NOO

                          Williams should definitely be playing more. This coach doesn't care how well you play, he still takes you out of the game even if you're on fire. **** makes no damn sense.
                          Seraphin is playing better than O'Quinn right now but im sure thats Fishers fault as well.

                            Calderon has been playing better lately, and outplaying Grant a lot of nights, but against Houston in the 2nd half when we can't get a stop, and their guards are getting penetration at will, he shouldn't have been on the court.

                            Zach Lowe wrote his column about the Knicks this week:

                            There are still a ton of questions to be answered, but for the first time in forever, New York's basketball team is generating some long-term buzz in the NBA.

                              saw this tweet after the game:

                              "Crowded him up top & got beaten off dribble. Went over pick. Everyone makes MCW a shooter except NYK"

                              MCW looks unstoppable tonight. hit consecutive runners, made some mid range. cant nyk play some smarter pnr defense?

                              alright oj mayo was hitting his shots everywhere. nyk just didnt have it. wished the reserves could play a little longer in the 4th
