If we play like that every game we will make the playoffs. Maybe this loss woke some players up. You have to play every game like it’s the last one. certain games you can back off a bit and let other back up players get the action. But the starters and the other players on the front end of the rotation must play hard, play defense and play unselfishly, that’s the right way.
It also shows we are a much better team without Jeffries. In my opinion the lineup should be Duhon, Hughes, Harrington, Lee and Curry, that’s a veteran NBA lineup that will match almost anybody. Let Nate, Gallo, Chandler and Douglas come off the bench and there is your 9 man rotation.
I wonder why we don’t see Milicic, is he that bad? He looked OK when he played but was slowed by a left knee issue.
Is it me or does Gallo run really slow, like even Duhon dribbling runs faster. He has trouble getting up the floor.
TD missed the TOP play of the game from the Celtics perspective … the Knick huddle with 9 seconds left when D’Ant DID NOT instruct someone to disrupt the C’s with the foul we had to give.
Red Holzman, he of the offense defense sub strategy, would have someone quick who had few fouls (Landry or Nate) to hack Pierce before he delivered to KG. Then, if the C’s getoff a game winner with 3 or 4 secs toplay, God bless ‘em.
This just in: D’Ant has confirmed that he’s holding his end of game “fouls to give” until 2010 in an effort to lure the big name FAs. Apparently, he thinks they don’t expire & he can use them in games once he has LBJ on his team. He’s held onto 2 so far in his tenure so let’s hope the King is noticing !
Tommy Dee has watched every Knick game since 1988, it's a record that he holds close to his heart, and with apologies to Cal Ripken, believes this is one heck of a streak.
He feels the team needs: perimeter defense, an attitude adjustment, to remove all position-confused guards, someone to protect the rim, and players who respect the jersey.
He also feels basketball is the greatest gift the city has given to its people and can't wait for the day a playoff win actually takes place in the Garden.

I would say yes absolutely. RT @Dnussbaum: @TommyDeeTKB Do the Knicks get Melo if the give up Gallo, AR, Curry and a first? 2 days ago

You are right, another example of why I think D’ant is overrated.
