		<description>I need a quick sound off after this mess of a loss.

1) Al Harrington&#039;s brief absence this season may have caused some to forget that he only has one move to the basket, the behind-the-back dribble drive. Harrington is in love with this move even though it has not been as  effective since it has been exposed after his Player of the Week honor. Al loves the three and the mid-range fade away, but he needs to work on his drives to the basket. Maybe a cross-over, or a quick pull up shot, or maybe a tear drop or floater. He cannot live on the perimeter if winning is the goal.

2) Wilson Chandler needs to have the ball in his hands. I do not understand the move by D&#039;Antoni to remove him from the game after he picked up his fourth foul. Let the kid play and learn. He showed that he can come up big, especially against the Bobcats a few games ago. There is no reason to shy him away fromm the fire. The true stars shine brightest in the heat of the moment.

While WC was benched, Nate Robinson was the Knicks go to guy down the stretch and he could not get it done tonight. During those last five minutes, Chris Duhon took way too many unreasonable threes while Al Harrington failed in his attempts to spin and win into the lane. The Knicks need to organize their crunch time game plan. Someone needs to step up, have the ball in his hands to perpetuate the offense during every possession.
I believe Wilson Chandler will be that player. 

The Knicks need a leader to control the offense and gather the morale. When no leader is identified, the NY Mets happen.</description>

		<description>OKC shot 64% and our defense was horrid..

Chandler was 4-12 with 4 rebounds..

more ping pong balls in the lottery.. 

Such is the life of a mediocre team.. 

Hate to say I told you so.. but this team has no business sniffing the playoffs.</description>

		<description>Duhon looked tired at points during the game. Another 40 minute effort will do that.

I have said this before, but when the Knicks dealt Crawford and Randolph, they traded their two prime time players.  Right now, the only guy we have like that is Al Harrington.  It is time to stop this bench experiment with him.  He has to be out there as much as possible.  He is no star, but he is the closest thing we have.</description>

		<description>Wow overreact much? THis team will only go as far as their D will take them, and they aren&#039;t a good defensive team.

When you are a young, inconsistent team with little D and a few players on your rosters there ARE no should&#039;ve-won games on the schedule. Reality bites...</description>

		<description>Jeez, it says something about the Thunder how close this game is and how bad the Knicks have played.

They look absolutely DEAD out there. Someone take the hint already that we are losing games through fatigue. Winnable games are being lost because of the players fatigue, and there is nothing else to say. It&#039;s ridiculous. These guys are just standing around at there, not moving, just dribbling. Like the whole team has become Jamal Crawford.

It&#039;s sickening seeing Nate flick up three long floaters in MUST SCORE situations. 

Hey Donnie, wake up tomorrow and do something. Get on the phones. There are two options: Sign some more players, pull the trigger on some moves to make us better if they are out there and lets push for a playoff spot. If not, then trade Lee and Nate get us some picks and lets try to rebuild like a normal team. This team just lost to the Thunder, a team whose name has already come up in debate of the worst team of all time. This current roster is going nowhere. We will end up with the 13th pick or something and get channing frye. If we&#039;re losing to the Thunder and not competing for a playoff spot, lets get a top 5 pick out of it.

Sorry for the rant, that game was just hard to watch.</description>

		<description>Nate needs to be put in D&#039;antoni&#039;s dog house, he owes the team an apology he is the stupidest more selfish player I have ever seen, who in addition can&#039;t play defense.</description>

		<description>Pathetic. This is not a playoff team. Chris Duhon needs to learn how to make a 3. When this team starts to make a comeback they start shooting 3s like there is 10 seconds left. Pathetic.</description>

		<description>What the hell is Robinson doing there....... he can never be a point guard because his decisions with the ball are so inconsistent.  What an awful game.</description>

		<description>I do not want to hear a thing about a good comeback.

This was a must have for this team.  They should have never been down that much in the first place.    

There are no moral victories in this league, let alone against the worst team in the league.
