LA2NY Gameday Thread: Knicks vs. Celtics 2-3-12

[LeFlume]

Celtics have 8 more three point attemps than us...maybe MDA get the picture now..

[BachaCho]

do you not realize he gave PAUL PIERCE a excellent 3 point shooter all the room in the world? were not talking about lebron james here you give him the space and live with the results a shooter like pierce you get up on him...

Exactly it isnt hard to pick up on him if he blows past Chandler , at least thats what i expect from NBA players to be able to pick him up, i know when i play ball and someone is driving in ill go in and put my body as close as possible and hands to pressure him then quickly go back to my man if he passes it back

he doesnt have to go all the way. if he blows past you for a midrange jumper thats guaranteed points compared to a 3.

Maybe we can give Giraffries his minutes then based on your logic.
He's good at guarding the perimeter. LOL

I don't know of ANY 7' + centers that can guard Paul Pierce at the 3 point line. Say what you want.

Difference is your not Melo or Amar'e and we all know what they do on D. Secondly in the NBA that contact your talking about 9x out of 10 is a foul especially w/ PP's acting

+111 they act like rondo was the one taking the shot, why let him get hot and light us up some more, which is what he's doing right now last time i checked a 2 is less than 3. you outmatched by pierce you get up on him if he goes by you expect help D.

Exactly... They're expecting Chandler to be bumping hips with Pierce in 3 land. No way in hell that happens or it's an easy 2 every time.

[Lercher]

My question is: why aren't we playing Amare more?

Thanks. I'll try to post more often.

If they keep up this level of play no one will call for D'ano's head. Hope this works out. Too many coaching changes, ****s up chemistry.

This is what would happen if Pierce played Pierce hard at the 3-line:



Here's what happened if Pierce tried to drive on him:




Nuff Said. I'd rather Pierce chuck a 3 with a hand in his face.

Pierce shooting about 50% in case you didn't see recent games, and you give him a wide open 3 with not even a attempted hand up? smh he's the hot hand if anything you come over and bring help get the ball out his hands and force someone else to make something happen.

well d'antoni said if the players need extra rests during these 3 games he'll give it amare probably needs his rest he played 41 minutes last night

hand in his face? that was a weak attempt to block out a good shot by chandler even jeffries could of did better then that

[LeFlume]
