It’s on David Lee and Wilson Chandler.

My bad.

And I still am not upset about passing on sessions…

Also – if any of you actually read the postgame recap, you would see this from david lee: “We had talked about waiting and stopping Pierce’s progress and we did that and didn’t think they would have time to throw back and still get a shot off. I am expecting Pierce to try and make a move and pull up. Good play by them and it is just unfortunate to lose a game like this. We knew we had a foul to give and we didn’t get one.”

so maybe it was the players and not the coach? hmm… or maybe you all like to complain too much? hmm…

Couple things worth pointing out: It kind of bothers me how much is in the hands of the refs. They proved in the closing minutes that they can completely dictate the outcome. They saw they missed the trip on the megatron so they call a bullshit offensive foul on ray allen to make up for it. That is not the proper way to officiate a sport; its too subjective.

There were long stretches where there was automatically a foul on both sides of the floor every time down the floor; foul shots on both sides every possession… that is not fun to watch.

The other major point i want to make is one that has been thrown around a lot lately; Duhon is absolute garbage. He cannot play with this team any more, it is enough. he can’t get around anybody, when he does get into the lane he either dribbles back out or throws a bad pass out for a bad three. He isn’t good at defense. He has absolutely no way of scoring the basketball unless he is left completely wide open, which he often is and still fails to finish.

I know we don’t have another true point guard on the roster; but i agree with the concept that we should just let nate run the point and either sink or swim. Duhon does not have to tools to help us win games; it’s as simple as that. The season is young and it might be early to be calling d’antoni stubborn. It is normal to give your once-guarenteed starters a chance to prove/re-prove themselves…. But sooner than later, the kid just needs to take a seat.

The flagrant foul would have been stupid if anyone else did it, but coming from Curry it was a great sign. One of his biggest problems has been a lack of passion, but he’s playing very passionately right now. He’s not taking shit from anyone down there and personally I like it . I’d like to see some bodies flying once in awhile.

Curry is not a great player, but he’s a big body, draws a lot of fouls and is a very efficient inside scorer when he’s at his best. He hasn’t played in so long it’s pretty ridiculous to expect him to walk on the court and be 100%. We have to give him a few weeks at least.

I can be really critical of players and point out their weaknesses, but some Knicks fans are just too much. They hate certain players (like Curry). No matter what they do they find the bad. On the flip side they love other players and overlook all the flaws.

There isn’t a single good all around player on the Knicks.

I love Gallo as a prospect, but right now he can’t play defense, is as slow footed as they come, is a poor rebounder for a man his size, is not exactly accumulating assists (and didn’t in Europe either), and occasionally shows a lack of hustle. In fact, all he has shown so far is that he’s an excellent shooter and efficient scorer. Yet somehow he is totally immune to criticism. I don’t get it.
