Thanks for another great game thread.

Can't lose to Philly. They are in their own tier of awfulness at the bottom of the NBA. Not even a real NBA roster at this point. If we lose to Philly, there is no doubt that psychologically this team will unravel unlike anything we have seen in the past few seasons. Let's go Knicks!

Only a few minutes into the game against a terrible, terrible team, but the ball movement is definitely there with this unit of Melo, Shump, Dalembert, Acy, and Calderon.

Don't want to speak too soon, but this Philly team's starting unit plays like its garbage time from the opening tip. This is a bad team we're playing unlike any bad team in the NBA. They will definitely have the highest odds of winning the number one pick in next year's draft, unless some other team has a plane crash or something tragic like that.

Winning 25 to 13 after the 1st quarter and I would describe how we are playing as "okay" at best. I think Philly's coach should be allowed to be drinking a glass of scotch while having to coach this team.

Winning 40 to 29 with 5 to go in the 2nd quarter. They actually made a run against us, but good efforts from Melo and Stat are keeping them at bay. If Melo and Stat were off their game tonight, who knows what would be happening right now?

Hold Philly to under 40 points in the first half after letting teams drop over 60 on us in first halves twice over the last week, but we are only up by 7 because of our suspect offense outside Melo and Stat. If Philly comes out with any sense of urgency in the 3rd quarter, we could actually be in for a game that only the pro-tanking Knicks fans would want to see.

Philly coach is 75% blame for the 0-12 record.
Philly defense is worst than the Knicks.
Another game Stat could DUNK for 20 pts.

Amare had the chance to score 25 pts in the last 7 games but we refuse to get him the ball
Im hoping Calderon see the 5 easy dimes he could get from Stat each game

Philly comes out with nothing in the 2nd half and now the lead is 20. We should be able to cruise from here.

The Knicks need to practice their team-defense in this game.
Fisher should've put a all offense lineup on the court,
then put a all defense lineup on the court in this game.

Philly is pitiful
Philly coach is more pitiful, no uptempo game, and no defensive game.
Isnt that the fundamental-system u teach to a young roster?

This game proves we are better than Philly, but it did nothing to prove we're not still a bottom 5, or possibly bottom 3, team in the NBA.

Philly performance tonite deserve the first, second, and third pick in the 2015 draft

The Knicks tonite ran a 10 man rotation, shooting 50% fg, but 18 turnovers.
Why did Melo take 20 shots? when none of his teammates took over 7 shots?
When we play a 0-13 LOSER team do we need our top scorer to be the top scorer of the game???
This question answer why we are a 4-10 record team

Couldn't see the game but props to Rady, htr10 and Kiya for posting and keeping the faith. Looks like Calderon was expectedly rusty and like I said this game with the worst team in the NBA served as a warmup game for him.

The schedule gets tougher so we'll soon have a better idea of how bad the Knicks really are. A couple of upsets against some WC teams would restore some credibility for this team.
