https://vine.co/v/bQq7zdjqpBwWhat did Crawford say to Melo?
The 1 seed in the WC is going to game 6 with the eight seed so it happens. Lose game 6 up in Boston and then I'll start sweating it....and to think we were talking about a sweep just a few short days ago. :wtf:

does kinda look like thats what he said.. hopefully melo doesn't shoot 3-40 in game 6 now
this team was waayyy too c0cky before this game and to come out and completely choke at home is ridiculous. Melo might as well of not even played the last two games cause he hasn't done ****
hopefully this game will teach JR to keep his damn mouth shut. Chuck is right (unfortunately).. you don't celebrate winning in the first round especially when you were expected to win this series
This is surprising, why?
This is textbook Woodson at it's core, and also textbook Melo.
This is what happens when a team chucks 3's at a historic pace (and runs very hot with them), but is still helmed by a coach and star play who's fatal flaws have always been their selfish passion or stubborn reliance on ISO.
This isn't about a "bad night" for Melo; and because he IS a top 10 individual player in the NBA, it is easy to get mixed up in what the core issues are, and what's really rotten underneath it all.
That is, if you want to field a team with true championship contending aspirations.
Sad thing is, Walsh is long gone, Dolan is more pro-active than he's been since vintage Isiah Thomas years for MSG, and this is easily the best team he has ever fielded, and may ever field if long-standing history is any indiciation.

We run plays. I can see that we attempt to run plays. But when the plays are stopped by the opposing defense, our back up plan is to run iso-Melo/iso-JR (which usually results in a midrange jumpshot)
Woody needs to get the other guys more involved on offense. I don't know about other people, but I usually get more motivated to play hard on both ends of the floor when I contribute to the offense.
I was Melos big fan, even when he was playing in Denver, but i may become his hater real quick. If we lose this series, it will be on him, JR, and Woodson. But mainly it will be on Melo, who is suppose to be our leader.
This dude is not passing the ball. When he gets it, it looks like his teammates stop moving, because they know they will not get that ball.
Melo avareges something like 1.6 assists per game in this series. What? 1.6 assists? This is disgasting.
I am going to going to say right now, even if we win on friday, KD is a much better leader and is a better player than Melo. And the reason i think he is better, simply he makes everyone on his team better. Thats it.
I'd like to apologize for not making the GT as promised, last night I got totally wasted and to be absolutely honest with you guys I got so drunk I even forgot about the game itself.
If u been a Melo fan, then u should know Melo been having career problems at getting a few of his teammates to committ to the postseason games throughout his NBA career.

The issue in game 5 is clearly Woodson. He becomes an amateur coach come playoff time. The Hawks got no where and right now the Knicks seem to be in trouble. He has the mentality that if given enough time JR will start hitting shots.....He plays the law of averages that eventually shots will fall.......Of course Woody does not weight the consequences of allowing that to happen not does he show faith in his other players..........
In the first quarter last night Prigioni after I beieve Garnet made a defensive rebounded knocked the ball out of KG'S hand and went off KG and was Knicks ball.....With the stop play Woodson took out Prig ) who looked baffled ) and put in Smith.......Prgioni moves the ball and plays solid defense yet Woodson goes with Smith way too soon..
Also Jason Kidd had no steam in the tank and often passed on taking a shot........He could not stop Pierce but rather then play Prig and Shump together he went with Smith for 36 minutes....Smith refused to run back in transition I mean this is the playoffs,,,,
Woodson is doing what he did last year and the same he did with the Hawks and it just does not work. Coach the team . he is like a little kid who is be whipped around by Doc.
