Nice creative threads Goknicks, I like the mario 3 stage...you should have the curtains slide out without having it look like it's been cut out if you know what I mean.
=================/
Nate played well, did a good job at the point-
No calls for the Knicks, f those refs-
DLee let Varejao abuse him with big time costly shots near that end that killed our momentum-
Overall decent job by the Knicks better then I thought-
I don't like making execuses... pero diablo to the max, those refs were mecyless today.
Oh, so you go to practices? Sit in on team meatings?
Cause if you don't, I don't see how you can even talk. He is constantly yelling and lecturing about defense. Why does he always call timeouts? Defensive lapses. He gets in guys faces when they don't do what they are supposed to do.
But hey, its everyone else's fault. It isn't Nate's for refusing to fight over screens or most of the time, even keep an eye on his man while he gets wide open and hits an open jumper.
But those aren't even related, you're comparing effort with knowledge/skill.
Look,
David Lee tries hard. He just doesn't have the physical ability. He has slow feet.
Nate has all the tools to be a great defender. That is why I'm more critical of him. He could be a great defender if he really tried. That fact that he doesn't is what I find upsetting.
You're a hater. How can you give the 6'9 David Lee a free pass for not playing defense, but then you attack the 5'9 Robinson for not being a good defender?
Robinson > Lee
Stop hating.
Robinson's a better scorer, passer, and leader than Lee.
Robinson tries to play defense. He averages 1.7 steals per game. You want a 5'9 point guard to block shots, too?
and lets forget zepole canolli.. zero point...zero assists...zero boards...
a fine game by the the 6th pick in the draft..
nba officiating has been solid this season and this game particularly was reffed well IMO so im lost when some of u actually thats how we lost, both teams had equal ft attempts i think
they really dont call minor body contact fouls anymore and this goes for all the games ive seen this past month, its gettin better...some of the old refs tho may need to retire
robinson killed it @ the point again, not his best but a major contribution, most would think he couldnt follow up YET again especially against quality guards like mo and west...so i think hes earned the right to be starting pg now(healthy duhon or not)
really tho, 6 missed ft's, poor david lee offense & defense, n a few open shots missed caused the loss, decent effort decent game
It never feels after every lost I get on here and find nothing but posters blaming just one player for the lost.Open your eyes people it was'nt just Nates fault and it was'nt just Lees fault.The last time I checked Lee and Nate played on a TEAM and when a TEAM loses then they lose as a team not none of this whining oh its this players fault or that players fault.They got beat by a better team end of story.
Anyways I did watch the refs tonight and I counted four fouls that should have been called on James before halftime.His sixth foul shoulde have come with nine minutes left in the forth.It makes me sick to see these star players get away with everything in games.Thats uncalled for and it should be stoped but it won't.Oh go back and watch the replay of those back door cuts by varjerio and you will see Delonte West hold a Knicks player for a half of a second on the last two Varjerio scores.He held Nate on one play and Nate or Hughes on the other play.
The whole team shot 37% as a team so tell me how that all falls on Lee??Dang I guess Lee shot all those shots?? He has to no better and be a team player.
The whole team shot awful and did'nt play very good defense as usual and thats why they lost.Another reason they lost was b/c they quit moving and passing the ball.For some reason when they start playing team ball by moving and passing the ball around they just quit it and start going one on one.
NETS LOSE!!! They just lost to the Clippers off a buzzer beater by Steve Novak! That means we're still tied with them.
And better still, Devin Harris got injured. That will definitely help us in our playoff hunt. I can't see the Nets win many games with out him.
