We don't need a scoring PG.. We need a passing PG that doesn't turn the ball over..

exactly, let lin go. Find yourself a Jesus who can put balls in STAT's hand and shoot for him as well. Wait...he plays no defense either.

Melo and Amar'e looked pissed that they were sitting on the bench at the end of the game.. and I absolutely LOVED IT

PS - When is D'Antoni becoming C'Antoni? I give it 2 or 3 games.

STAT dosen't need balls in his hand. He need them in his pants..

OK...stop posting, they judge PG's, by something called turnover to assist ratio, i like LIN, but he's a turnover machine.

Don't think Rose won the MVP based on his TO to assist ratio but I do get your point.

When we were winning it doesn't matter how many TO's Lin makes. He was being aggressive and forcing the offense which was a good thing.

Now he is making mistakes because he is hesitating and trying to make a decision as to whether to defer to Melo/Stat or take it himself.

As with all Rookie PG's this is going to be a learning process. It will improve with experience and time on the court.

Like I said before, its not helping him that MDA's offense is an absolute joke to run. Nor is it helping that we barely get any easy buckets on fast breaks because we are always picking up the ball from out of the basket.

[Rioferd]

Frustrating. At least Mike kept Melo and Stat on the bench at the end of the game.
Quite interesting that Clyde criticised MDA on-air. Maybe Dolan gave them the green light. But who could replace Dantoni?

It was a good move to bench the two stars. Sends a message I suppose. I think MDA had one eye on the Bulls game too. They need those two fresh if we are going to win that statement game.

But at the same time they were yanked for a real lack of leadership and effort on the court. Especially on the defensive end. Missed shots you can forgive. But lack of effort and allowing turner and williams to burn us like that? Thats just disgraceful.

First the Jets now the Knicks will to win is gone.

[Lercher]

It looks like D'Antoni doesn't give a **** about Dolan anymore and he played the guys he wanted to and not the guys Dolan wants him to play. I can't believe I'm saying this but dude deserves a handshake for benching our stars even if he gets fired soon.

When have the Jets ever won

What is he saying?

When have the Jets ever won

They have gotten further recently than the Knicks have gotten in 12 years. They are 2 talented teams with one sided coaches that are not listening to them anymore. Melo is Mark Sanchez, a talented person who has failed in the lime light.

What is he saying?

He is basically nicely bashing the Knicks mentality, locker room, coach, and star players attitudes.

[Rob Low]

-Novak should not of played for that long in the 4th. He didn't play D or hit shots.
-Shump should of played more
-Jr should of played less
-Why take out Melo when he's the only one playing good today?
-Fields played well
-Amare was useless today
-Taking out Melo at the beginning of the 2nd when he was hot was a retarded move.
-I really miss Jeffries

Shumpert needs at least 6 or 7 minutes of Novaks minutes today. The kid is incredibly gifted.

yea i especially agree with benching Melo in the 2nd QTR. Our best player who's confidence is shot, is on fire in the first and you don't let him build upon his streak and confidence by sitting him? C'mon man
