[Kiyaman]

KP picks up his 5th foul goes to the bench. DRose out the rest of the game, Knicks are not winning this.

Like i said KP did not deserve 18 min in the 1st half .. Horn played KP the first 14 min of the game .. SMH

 

[tiger0330]

Melo takes and misses a 3 pt shot and the MSG crowd boos the Melo ISO shot selection.

 

[tiger0330]

CLee makes back to back jumpers and he has the Knicks back in it 99-97.

 

[Kiyaman]

Melo defensive rebound then Melo miss 25 ft shot .. trade him
Quinn defensive rebound then Lee hit 20 ft out to bring score 97-99

 

[tiger0330]

and he ties it with a layup. 99-99 4 mins left.

 

[Kiyaman]

Lee Lee Lee tie game at 99

 

[htr10]

If we end up winning this game, Courtney Lee deserves all the credit.

 

[mafra]

Anthony enters game... down by 6.... missed layup (probably fouled), missed three, travel, missed layup, has his shot blocked. lol..... amazing. 5 fruitless possessions....

But Lee is on fire right now. Tie game. 99-99.

 

[Kiyaman]

The 4th Qtr. belongs to Quinn Lee Jennings .. Melo? KP? must be tired again in the 4th qtr

 

[mafra]

KOQ misses an easy shot.... Walker scores. Melo jumper....
Brick.... but KOQ rebound and kick out to Lee.... swish. 3 points....

Melo forces turnover.... Lee then feeds BJ for 4. Boom. Garden crowd standing.

105-101

 

[tiger0330]

CLee 1 man wrecking crew hits a 3 to get the lead and he extends it by driving the lane and finds BJ in the left corner for a 3 Knicks up 105-101 1 min left.

 

[Kiyaman]

KP added 2 to make Knicks lead 107- 102
Holiday comes in to replace KP .. What about replacing Dolan boy Melo LMAO

 

[mafra]

KP puts nail the coffin (first bucket of second half).... hard to believe still within 3 games of the 6th seed. Lol.

 

[tiger0330]

KP fouls out but its a 2 possession game 107-102 Knicks with only 42 secs left should be enough.

 

[Kiyaman]

Got to go Rocks trying to spread their lead on Philly .....

 

[mafra]

CHA returns fromdead but Melo
Puts the game away with a big bucket.

 

[htr10]

Unexpected grit from this team tonight to get the comeback win. Maybe other teams should be trying to see what it will take to get Courtney Lee from us before the trade deadline.

 

[tiger0330]

Hornets got it down to 2 with Batums 3 but Melo hits a 9 ft jumper and FT to seal it. Knicks win a close one 110-107.

Game ball to CLee. Quinn had an impact. I agree with Kiya how can you give steady minutes to Noah and not to Quinn.

 

[mafra]

Knicks entered 4th down by 5.... now have a 2-23 record when trailing after 3....
Finally, NY avoid a 5th brutal home loss in a close game in jan.

 

[tiger0330]

Two very effective games in a row by CLee, thats the guy I thought we signed. I hope he continues to step up, Ron Baker is not better.
