Is it too freaking much to ask for Amar'e and Melo to play well the same game? Jesus... Of course when Amar'e is playing great Carmelo is garbage and can't hit anything, and when melo is playing well amar'e gets rejected and can't finish anything

I've had enough, get rid of one them they can't play on the same team there is no way 40 million in cap space should be going to these guys, I don't even care which one they get rid of one needs to go they aren't helping the team at all.

So I guess we might as well start Clyde Frazier.
bro, we went down 12 soon as Lin/Melo came in the game, this has nothing to do with how good Lin can be, it comes down to knowing what to do & knowing where to get the ball, setting up novak for a Long 3 is not, KNOWING what to do. Like i said experience>>>>raw talent.... you dont see the mavs throwing in Bobwa whatever dudes name is in the game... they keep Jason kidd in why? because he knows what he is doing. You think Lin would of ran the offense and dropped this lead to 3 points.. most likely it would of been turn over city. the Linsanity media has brain washed some of you :boohoo:

He shoulda just kept him on the bench and closed out the game with the unit on the floor


And stop looking at Davis shooting stats everytime he was on the floor NY started coming back and absolutely controlled the tempo, something Lin hasn't learned yet.

This makes no sense.

He didn't control any tempo, he took a lot of bad shots, even the shots he made were poor shot selection. Anyone who misses 7 shots and especially at the PG position in 15 minutes should be benched ASAP. How would you feel is Fisher was chucking up shots at a higher rate than Kobe and missing 70% of them?

and Lin has controlled the tempo fine when Amare and Melo weren't playing. Amare and Melo are difficult players to play with.

Lol so the Knicks aren't winning it period then huh

But really Melo is uncomfortable, he was uncomfortable before because he was asked to be a playmaker which he's not and now he's uncomfortable because he doesn't get consistent touches. Mike D'antoni is the only coach that does not feature his star players enough.
No, not with Miami, Chicago, OKC, hell even Kobe has enough left to win his 6th.

The two fouls by Novak and Shump were really what killed our momentum...let's be honest, we had the lead, and as soon as their fouls gave Dirk four free points, the game was in Dallas's hands again.

Melo and Amar'e are suppose to make it easier for Lin but he keeps playing as if he needs to do it by himself, he also rarely passes them the ball, he hits Chandler/Novak/Fields/Jeffries more than he does STAT and Melo

Yea Melo is not comfortable because this system sucks major ass. We rarely score 100 with a loaded offensive unit. Our defense is great but we don't score as much as our talent should and that's the problem, Mike D'antoni's offense is flawed and inconsistent...unless of course you have a Hall of Fame MVP Point Guard.

Maybe now that Chandler has his championship ring his voice will carry more weight.

We've seen Lin take control and run this offense, had one of his best games of his life against the moves. You're too bent on up on Lin hate to make sense of anything. You're putting too much credit into Davis when its Novaks sharpshooting and Shump D's that got us back in the game. Doesn't matter who was the PG was.

What game are you watching Metrocard do you not realize that everytime Davis was in the game in tonights game and against Boston the lead was cut down and everytime Lin comes in the other teams lead grew. Yes Baron takes some bad shots but he plays under control, he isn't putting himself teammates in bad situations, and he knows when to slow down and speed up the tempo.

Hop off of Lin's dick already Linsanity is over it's obvious he still has a lot of work to do teams have scouted him and he's not ready to lead this team to a deep playoff run it's just facts Davis is a better, more skilled, more experienced player than Lin.

MELO CANNOT HIT A SHOT AND MOVES LIKE MOLASSES......do not blame LIN for Melos woes...

^^^ this... Lin (tries) to take on defenses, through pick and rolls or iso's and tries to set players up, and fumbles majority of the time. There comes a point where you just need to get the ball to your stars and let them handle the situation, not continue to force the action. Lin is not chris paul, deron williams, rondo, etc Lin is Lin.

Truth be told, if D'Antoni keeps Lin and Melo on the bench, we have a better chance at winning the game

also its funny how we feature Novak more on offense than Melo.......we run 8 plays for Novak and just say go Melo we'll watch and see you go one on one
