Game 2: Knicks @ GS - 28 Dec, 10:30

Dammit Douglas can you at least try to penetrate??? Amare has to work too hard for his shots.

[clumsy]

Balkman played well in his spot minutes

[CA7]

1st Half Analysis
If We Play This Way Against Good Teams We Have No Chance
TD is not a Point Guard
Fields is not a Shooting Guard
STAT has NO fire

[Crazy⑧s]

Melo looks absolutely lethargic. What was that play at the end of the half? His head's not in it at all.

Our offense is putrid.

[clumsy]

that's what i'm saying...it's kinda a problem when Balkman was the most memorable player in the half.....

[Lercher]

IMO they're just playing soft and look unmotivated, cause they know tomorrow we're playing Lakers, there is no other explanation for their weak offense tonight. Defensively we look not that bad, allowed only 16 point in the second...

[CA7]

I'm usually good at this I predict Melo to have 15pts and 6rebs in the 3rd Quarter and finish the game with 32pts and 10rebs

Balkman is an athletic player, I'm glad he's getting minutes finally.

Fields is closer to a SG than Douglas is to a PG, but both are horribly misplaced. Positionally, and also in whether they should be starting or coming off the bench.

Shumpert, if his D is spectacular, we can live with as a starting 2, despite perhaps not having a true spacing the floors shot -- the reality is his D would be integral when facing the top teams and the type of backcourt players we will face.

Shumpert-Douglas-Fields would be fine as our 2 rotation, and front line off the bench trio...if we had a legit PG like Baron, and whomever we pick up in the offseason.

For now, it's kinda painful to see the effects of it all, especially since we have such superlative talent on the team.

We're turning the ball over too much and there's very little ball movement. Our starting pg gives the ball up immediately after reaching the 3 pt line. Whats the point of playing if that's all he's gonna do.

Yeah its not that their bad players their just in the wrong spots, Douglas is Jason Terry Lite, Fields is similar to.....idk but he's a 3 man, he cannot guard 2 Guards in my opinion

Stats dunk better be a top 10 play but besides that hes playin like a girl

Fields is playing great...he better look to score more if he wants to keep his starting job. Otherwise Shumpert will steal it once hes healthy again

Balkmans dunk was better

^ i agree both them better be top 10

Not that agree with the knicks doing this but thats what it looks like to me too

Coach need to pull off an Al Pacino (Any Given Sunday) halftime speech to get this ship going.
