I know it was only the 1st game but it was a great win for us tonight. Mike D. is a great coach and we will see that more and more as the season progresses. Great coaches make adjustments both in-game and game-to-game adjustments. I not talking about 47 different starting lineups ala Larry Brown but minor, subtle and effective adjustments. Although he didn't do it last night, I guarantee the next time the Knicks have a big lead late in the 3rd period you will see Mike D slow down the offense. I'm not talking about slowing it down to last years pace where we held the ball for 20 seconds and then had Crawford take a desperation shot, but slowing it down and looking for good shots inside. Last night we took a big lead and then started throwing up 3's as if we were down by 20 instead of up by 20.
