Charlotte Bobcats (10-15)

Injuries: Larry Hughes (strained groin)

Game Notes:

The Knicks proved that they are able to beat the Bobcats in Charlotte, where they are a much better team.  The Knicks basically have the Bobcats that win by collapsing down the stretch and turning the ball over repeatedly.  This game is a must win.  I said before the Knicks played Charlotte and Chicago that if they were able to split the series with the two teams they would be successful.  To do that, they’re going to have to handle business at home.  The Bobcats played and lost last night in Charlotte to the Jazz.  They had to travel to New York in the inclement weather, so fatigue could be a factor.  The bottom line is that this game is a matter of revenge, and if the Knicks want to be considered a playoff contender, they have to beat the teams that they will be competing with.

    win or lose
    the knicks still suck

    u do know this rite?

    or mayb i don’t know there record or whos coaching..

  • darkseid

    who is your favorite nba team btw?

  • Magik_Trick

    David Lee & CDuhon, are going off back-to-back 40+ minute games…wonder how they’ll hold up…

    Hoping we can find some consistency from Gallo….he should be stroking those 25 footers with ease, and not seem hesitant

    Oh, and YAY! Eddy Curry is out the rotation…..we wouldnt have have traded him regardless, so better now than never

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    don’t have any

    i’m an 80′s an 90′s nba fan.

  • darkseid

    I was also a fan of the nba in the 80′s and 90′s and my team is the New York Knicks. Do you see how that works?

    Again, who is your favorite team? Which team do you spend most of your time and effort following? On Earth, that is known as a person’s favorite team. Now, once again….slowly so you can understand…..who….is…..your….favorite…..nba…..team?

  • Jeff Cykiert

    I do know their record in this month is 6-3, a month where da-gawd has been more adamant than ever in his bashing of the team.

    “win or lose the knicks still suck” What on earth is the point of saying that? Why do you come on this blog.

    pathetic.

    Is Hughes still not playing tonight?

  • Jeff Cykiert

    I could’ve sworn hughes was only sitting 2 games.

  • Dave the Rave

    No, we we think they are great and your posts still suck.

    You sucking on sour lemons?

    BTW, what is DaGawD and what knowledge do you have?

    DaGawD = suckiest handle on any blog.

  • dino2008

    from what i heard he is listed as questionable but he probabbly won’t play.

  • Dave the Rave

    Nothing could make me happier than the Knix destroying Larry Brown’s morale tonight. Hoping for a romp.

  • DVJ

    Jeff…you have to know who your speaking with.
    Certain bloggers here don’t know their a$$ from a hole in the wall.

    Anybody that goes by the name DaGawd……..you should already know what your dealing with.

    He’ll be the #1 slurper come July 1.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao..

    come on now..

    i follow all teams in the box score

    i don’t have any team that i like there are players i like

    when the knicks get a coach an player i like
    they will be my fav team.

    the last player they had that i liked was
    sprewell

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    rite on bro

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    once again do u know there record JEFF?

    ok if u know there record u know they suck..

  • ds2488

    For whatever reason, the Knicks never seem to matchup or play well against the Bobcats. Don’t know what it is, but hopefully they can beat them tonight.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao.

    unless they get durant or som1 else i like mayb

    i’m not a lebron bosh joeJ or amare fan

    so slurping what?

    an last but not elast i’m not a danni boy fan=no ring for him or the knicks..

  • darkseid

    did you ever see the Dave Chappelle skit “The Player Hater’s Ball”? I think you would fit right in there.

    You could talk all night with the player hater from korea and no one would understand what either one of you is talking about

  • Dave the Rave

    LOL! Brilliant coherent thread. Well done. My knowledge is enhanced.

  • darkseid

    Their record is 2 games out of the 8th seed for the playoffs with 54 games to play. They are in striking distance for the team’s goal this season, unlike some other teams like the nets. Their record is not that bad based on this season’s expectations.

  • CircleLimit4

    Trashing the Knicks on the KnicksBlog when you’re not a Knicks fan constitutes you as a troll. You should probably find more constructive use of your time.

  • darkseid

    it sounds like you should pick another team to spend your time following. I doubt you follow every team in the nba as much as you do the knicks

    change teams, seriously, we’ll be ok

  • itzyung1

    Sooo you aren’t A Knicks Fan you are just here to piss people off.

  • CircleLimit4

    If the Knicks keep the turnovers down this time around they should come out on top, provided they apply the same defense they displayed the last few games.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    i see the truth hurts

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao.

    ok my hillbilly buddy..

  • CircleLimit4

    The truth is you’re trolling and you have too much time on your hands.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    well for the past 10 years u didn’t need to be a 500 team to make the playoffs

    but the knicks will make it to the lottery this years again
    an the jazz are just loving it..

    with 54 left i can say they might win 20 of those unless a good trade happens

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    enjoy the kool aid guys an gals

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    my respect don’t come easily as yours.

    the knicks havn’t earned nothing
    an won’t earn anything other than playoffs with danni boy after next summer..

  • DVJ

    Thanks Monkey…we will.

    Enjoy your offseason with the Jets.

  • CircleLimit4

    Don’t even bother responding to the troll. The only thing more pathetic than the Knicks is a Knicks hater spending his entire day commenting on this blog.

  • Thall99

    DaGawD_KnowLedge:

    I’m pretty much finished with this blog but I did come back to read your posts and your comments to DVJ especially. LMAO!

    DAGwd, it must be very lonely being one of the few kids not wearing a Helmet and braced shoes waiting for the little yellow bus!

    DVJ must stand for “D’Antoni Vaseline Jr.” because ALL of D’Antoni’s poor moves go down smooth with this dude. He has to be family!

    Yo man, please keep it up because you truly see this team for what it really is rather then what some of us blindly wish for it to be.

    Our Knicks drafted the 8th player in the draft to take front row seat to watch the other players who can’t get it done nightly! hahahahahahahahaha That’s mental disorder not development!

    NY NY, we are so ree-tarded, you have to write it twice.

    I’m out but give ‘em h-e-ll and don’t give in and get on that little yellow bus with them. lol

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    what part of the knicks
    suck don’t u people understand

    dammmnnn..

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    ok d**khead vagina junior

    lmao..

  • totti

    if you answer to him, you play his game.

  • DVJ

    Thanks Thall..we really appreciate your words.
    Now go back to your room and ask your mother for your bottle back. Tell her your to old to still be sucking on her tit.

    Have a great night Thall…your the best.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao.

    good post

  • BiggieSmalls

    Hahn just tweeted that teams will be waiting for Nate to be bought out so they can sign him for the vet min..

    Way to go coach.. thanks for destroying the value of another asset to this franchise.

  • CircleLimit4

    So. Basketball…

  • BiggieSmalls

    great joke by the coach that Nate will be dressing but his agent surely wont be..

    tasteless much?

  • darkseid

    Unlike you, I live in new york city

    you’re the one who’s favorite knick was latrell sprewell…where was he from again…oh yeah, Milwakee Wisconson…is that really where you live DaGawD….ugh even typing your name is annoying

  • DVJ

    “thanks for destroying the value of another asset to this franchise.”

    Would you mind explaining what value Nate had?

  • BiggieSmalls

    at minimum as a trade piece for a draft pick or to move a contract like Jeffries.

    Now teams are circling like vultures because they know this has ended badly.. no need fo them to pay with a player when a buyout should happen when the Agent starts making more noise.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    na i’m from alabama
    thats’s the school he went to
    since then i followed is career

  • totti

    Listen Jeff, dvj, circle limit and some others positives: you remember the Munchausen syndrom when the kidnapped fall in love for their kidnappers? Here is exactly the same: all these haters are so accustomed to desperation coming from endless seasons of incredible bad results that they have but anger and desespoir in their hearts. They don’t simply realize that there is plan, a coach and hopes for the future. And maybe for the present.

  • darkseid

    the point is that we are still in the playoff mix, so based on our preseason expectations, the record is not that bad

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    ofcourse there a big possibility of a buyout cuz danni boy killed anytype of value he had

  • DVJ

    He’s such an asset that as soon as we sat him down we’re over 500 without him.

    Where are you getting the information that we would’ve been able to get a draft pick or to help move a contract with Nate?

    Nate has no value in the league…as it was proved this past summer.

    Maybe in your mind he could get a draft pick but there’s a big difference from what you think and what other GM’s in the league think.

    Sorry

  • CircleLimit4

    Nate had little to no value as a multi-year contract but as an expiring this year he probably would have had some. D’antoni putting Nate in the doghouse for that long neutralized this value. He should have given him his 10mins. to keep him on team radars.

    Maybe he’ll play now that Nate has officially requested a trade, but that’s wishful thinking. I still think he can be moved, just not by himself.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    how can i be a fan of a team that has
    a coach that plays a circus style.

    only clowns would like that.

    i guess
    u think lil wayne is the greatest
    an lady gaga is a female.

    lmao..

  • darkseid

    he’s not even from new york

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    9-17 an he has only played 12 game an 22mins a game

    these clueless fans always looking for an excuse for everything..

    the coach is the problem losers..

  • darkseid

    ok, that makes sense

  • CircleLimit4

    I have no problem with Knicks fans getting on the Knicks case, I criticize the franchise all the time. It’s when people who aren’t Knicks fans come and trash the franchise on a Knicks blog, that’s where we have a problem. It’s trolling plain and simple. I’m cool with everyone who’s hating the moves the Knicks make, if they have the Knicks best interest in mind.

    But DaGawd is a different case. He/she is coming here just to say “Knicks suck” and spouting opinion as fact is beyond pathetic. Tommy should consider deleting the account because of trolling.

  • DVJ

    Na..your mother is the problem. She’s the reason why your here…..loser LMAO!!!

  • darkseid

    that was nate’s maximum trade value, not minimum

    He’s a bench player on probably every nba team, remember

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    i’m on 139 an lennox

  • DVJ

    We bloggers would think you’d like the circus style since you belong in a circus……monkey!

    Hey everybody..that’s DaGawds new handle name…..DaMonkey.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    i guess u really don’t know whos the coach of the knicks

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao

    the knicks suck lil buddy
    but i guess your eyes are seeing 17-9 record

    u the fool for drinking all that kool aid

    desperate for what the worse ran franchise is the league?

    come on now lil buddy

    i’m the truth around here

    while u an someother sip on the fantasy kool aid of which u think the knicks are good..

    lmao

    they suck due to a circus style coach who couldn’t teach DEFENSE if his life depended on it.

    face the facts lil buddies..

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    no doubt
    ya moms should of swallowed YOU.

    d*ckhead vagina junior

  • darkseid

    that would be insulting to monkeys

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    lmao

    i guess u think i’m black
    na i’m actually a redneck from harlem

    that loves speaking the truth.

    ok
    D*ckhead vagina junior

  • nyknicksfan

    DaGawds why do you come here if you are going to repeat your self over and over no one cares what you say so just stfu and stop wasting my time by posting dumb shit everyone knows and btw if your a knicks fan you should hope and look at the positives thats why we are called fans and your worthless

  • bartnyk

    No need to take what Hahn says as gospel Nate will get traded even if its in a bigger deal that includes more than just him straight up, Donnie Walsh can’t be so stupid to buy him out. I wouldn’t mind seen AL get moved he reverts back to 3pt chucker too often if thats the case give me a 3pt specialist for him Mike Miller + something.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    but isn’t that the truth they suck
    why pretend they don’t suck?

    don’t worry better players might come
    but u all are still stuck with DANPHONY aka the best circus show coach of all time..

  • nyknicksfan

    your not a fan thats why everyone is pissed because your just a 40yr man living in his moms basement calling for ewing to be our coach

  • CircleLimit4

    He’s not even a Knicks fan. Everyone should stop responding to him, he’s a troll.

  • CircleLimit4

    Basketball people… basketball.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    if no1 cares why respond to me

    when the knicks have better management an a coach i’ll be on the kool aid until then no way jose

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    another example of the truth hurts..

  • darkseid

    Here is the actual tweet, it sounds more like Hahn’s opinion to me

    You stated as if it were a fact, which it is not

    “In fact, it sounds more like teams would prefer to wait for the Knicks to come to a buyout with Nate and sign him for minimum.
    about 4 hours ago from TweetDeck “

    make the team in your image. make the trades, sign the players you want (no more isiah thomas nonsense), draft the guys you want, set the lineups, set the strategy. sign up today http://totalsportsheaven.com/showthread.php?t=23594 the knicks are currently open but it’s first come, first serve. did i mention that jared jeffries and eddy curry will not be on the books for 2010?

  • Dave the Rave

    If N8 flamed out so badly with D’A he is very likely or certain to do the same thing with his next coach. You’ll see, biggie. They guy has mega talent but no brains for acting like a pro and fitting into a team concept because he’s out of control.

    Out of control. Look it up. That’s N8. That’s D’A problem with him. I repesct D’A for trying to implement order and not being a pansy who allows a double standard for kiddies like N8 the Child.

  • Heri

    Thall isn’t leaving, what he really means is he will be using different names.

  • bob go knicks

    Bullshit!this is a blog.anyone who has an opinion on this subject should be ABLE TO EXPRESS IT without being ridiculed.why would you give a shit what he has to say?Obviously he was a knicks fan,and stopped being one because he doesnt like the way the team is being run,by the GM or the coach.

  • CircleLimit4

    i think Gallo’s douchy rooster-hair is hindering his shot.

  • CircleLimit4

    Duhon can’t keep up with Felton at all. Nate should be getting minutes.

    Felton is pushing the ball hard. Maybe he’d be a decent pick-up if we can’t find a real solution to our PG problem.

  • bob go knicks

    ITS “they’re” animals

  • Mucha

    Seriously, Bobcats-Knicks games are terrible.

    Why does Jeffries always get poked in the eye by the way?

    Oh, I think the Bender fairy tale won’t last long.

  • Mucha

    Then why don’t you come back when a new coach and a new GM take over?

  • ds2488

    Seriously, these two teams butcher the game of basketball every time they play. Its crazy.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    i have a feeling this scrub by the name of felton
    an murray are going to kill the knicks..

  • Boots

    Thanks for trying to get us back on topic. Maybe it is a snow day thing, between this afternoon’s thread and the start of this thread, I’ll feel like the JHS crowd has found this blog.

  • Boots

    . . . I feel . . .

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    na this place needs it’s sanity which i provide

    since every1 thinks the knicks are great..

  • bartnyk

    Dont correct me I know

  • Mucha

    lol

    I don’t know why nba.tv wanted to show this game. I mean why oh why

  • Mucha

    Intangibles Mr. Jeffries, intangibles…

  • CircleLimit4

    He’s made some rookie mistakes but I love Douglas finally getting some real burn.

  • Boots

    Not its, but it’s

  • CircleLimit4

    ^Didn’t mean for that to be a response.

    But yeah, this game is has more turnovers than a bakery.

  • Showstopper232

    I think hill cant make the rotation because of those stupid pigtails he’s wearing!

  • CircleLimit4

    Haha yet Gallo gets away with the Eurohawk?

  • CircleLimit4

    Yeah, I guess people need to get their “ya-ya’s” out after being snowed in.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    that aint a eurohawk
    thats the red thing the rooster has on his head..

  • bartnyk

    Wilson’s getting 30 tonight

    Harrington is trade bait IMO

  • Mucha

    It’s ok, I didn’t like the mohawk/”eurohawk” haircuts but they are not that bad you know… They are acceptable.

    It’s like, I’m a “Doe Or Die”, “Ready 2 Die”, “It Was Written” fan… I kinda miss the 90′s but Hip-Hop isn’t that bad nowadays, I learned to appreciate Vado, French Montana etc you know. Like I said “it’s not that bad”.

  • nyknicks19

    stuck in the library pulling an allnighter for my last final, but im following the cbs gamecast and i was kinda satisfied with what i was seeing/reading….

    but i came in here and apparently this is a terrible game..is that the case?

    fg% is high and wilson seemed to be on..anything going on in the first half worht noting?

  • darkseid

    the knicks are winning by six at the half.

    Now go back to studying

  • Mucha

    I’m sure Wilson Chandler checks theknicksblog everynight… man Will is BALLIN I can’t front. He used to make MANY bonehead plays the first 20 games of the season but he’s really playing well these days. He’s aggressive but he’s playing well within his limitations a la David Lee which is always a good sign. I like the fact that he tries to get into the paint.

  • Knicks4life

    Finally Toney Douglas is getting some minutes but I can see why D’Antoni gets frustrated with him. He is not a good orchestrator of the offense and at one point ran into his own man and forced a turnover by Jeffries.

    With the Bobcats without Wallace the Knicks can’t afford to lose this game. I love the way the Knicks are attacking the paint against that soft Bobcat front line. D’Antoni must have read my post earlier today.

    Bender looks great. A big man that can shoot the three (which D’Antoni seems obsessed with) but protects the rim on defense. Will his knees hold up for 65+ games? Probably not, but it was a gamble worth taking.

    @D_Gawd, I have seen you all over different Knicks sites as Knowledge, the D_Gawd, etc. I’m shocked to read you aren’t a Knicks fan. That is alot of time to spend discussing, writing, and debating the Knicks if you don’t even like them. I agree with you the team as structured needs alot of work, and the coach has to start emphasing defense if he is ever going to win a title, but man I could have sworn you were at least cheering for and watching the Knicks.

  • Mucha

    Terrible 1st quarter

    Good 2nd quarter

    Highlights : Wilson Chandler dunk on Tyson Chandler to end the half and aggressive 3 point play by Gallo

  • nyknicks19

    now if i could only remember why i chose accounting as my second major…

  • Mucha

    Yeah that’s the “rooster haircut”

  • Knicks4life

    Wil just needed to get healthy. He had offseason surgery and you could see he was settling for the outside shot because he didn’t trust his own explosivness.

    When everyone here was bashing Chandler and saying we should trade him for anything I was saying be patient. If we ever get a real PG in here that can help sapce the floor and do more things than run the pick and roll with Lee I think you’ll be very pleased with WIl’s all around game. He would be a phenom in NO with Chris Paul.

  • itzyung1

    This Is What I Like Our Youngins Leading The Way!!!!!

    Gallo 12 Points 2 Steals
    Will 15 Points3 Rebounds
    Toney 2 Points 2 Steals 4 Assists

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    they miss G wallace

  • Knicks4life

    Nice hustle play by Gallo but he has to do a better job of sealing smaller players in the post. He is too used to running to the three point line. Play like a big man and pin that little guy behind you.

    He is having a nice game though.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge

    man ofcourse i watch the knicks

    but i’m not 1 of those people not deny what it is.

    this is the first time in my history of blogging i have posted so much
    cuz some fools got me started.

    it is what it is
    the knicks suck
    don’t take it personal

    it’s the truth

    they will be good 1 day hopefully i’m still alive when they win it all..

  • CircleLimit4

    You can see the Knicks getting tired. The short rotation is haunting us.

  • CircleLimit4

    You can see the Knicks starting to get tired. The short rotation is haunting us.

  • Mucha

    The problem was not only the fact that he was settling for jumpers, but he used to make bonehead plays : lackluster D, stupid turnovers, ridiculous charges on 3-on-1 fast-breaks (obviously his shot selection)… he was really not playing well.

  • Mucha

    You seem to have trouble with the reply button lol

  • Knicks4life

    Well Chandler doesn’t have the highest B-Ball IQ so yeah he needs to play with a good/great PG to minimize the mistakes you speak of. Typically a wing or big man shouldn’t be making those decisions on a fast break but I’d have to know which plays you are talking about. Also, they had Wil playing the 2 guard early in the season when he has no handle (D’Antoni’s fault). That may have accounted for some of the turnovers too.

    But no excuses here. He needed to play better and hopefully this game is the start of him helping to become a factor next to Lee and Gallo, especially with Al struggling.

  • Mucha

    Knicks can’t afford to lose this one.

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    No Wallace or Jackson – and we are up only 8 – wow – just wow – I know no Larry Hughes – but still – if Wallace is playing today – we do not win this game.

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    Countdown to Joe Johnson or Rudy Gay . . . .

  • Knicks4life

    i said that already :)

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    Loved the Tommy Dee justification about Hill not playing. Wonder if he came up with that one or was he fed that one by one of Donnie’s guys?

  • Mucha

    Earlier in the season he got called for two offensive fouls on 3-on-1 fastbreaks – he went right at the opposing defender with a trailer and a player on the wing waiting to get the ball.

    He’s playing though. Really well

  • Mucha

    lol

  • Knicks4life

    I’m going to admit I was wrong about something. Gallo is a much better shot blocker than I thought. He still gets lost in transition on defense and I hate his defensive footwork but I’ve seen him either block or distract at least 4 or 5 shots tonight (one wdidn’t count because of a travel but still). He is putting the ball on the floor, still showing a good percentage from downtown. Very impressed with his all around game.

  • DaGawD_KnowLedge
  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    I believe the Knicks have this one – but cannot feel good about this one – a win is a win – but Charlotte w/out Wallace or Jackson for the later half of the game – oh well – take the Bulls on Tuesday – and let’s see what they have for us on Christmas Day against the Heat.

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    Spoke to soon – how this game is even this close amazes me. Harrington with the miscue – no offensive rebound on the next possession – Duhon misses the FT. Ughhh

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    FTs – clutch – come on

    It will come down to Gallo – crazy out of control sequence there. Knicks once again unable to stop the penetrating guard. Turning Felton into Monta Ellis.

    Awful FT shooting by Gallo – just awful

  • Realist_Knick_Fan

    To be fair – he redeems himself with the block – but still putting this game in that situation w/ the FT shooting down the stretch – uggghhh. Future no. 2 option has to hit those. Bron Bron and company are watching.

    Hahaha Gallinari

    Redemption!

    I thought the Knicks couldn’t win against the Bobcats, thank God Acie Law tried to pull a Michael Jordan.

  • darkseid

    crazy and out of control, but if they didn’t foul gallo that would have been a break away dunk

  • Mucha

    I agree, he had to make those but he’s just 21 years old.

    LOL, I hope not. If you’ve been watching, most of this season Wolf has been wearing a jacket, and they’ve been doing chest and shoulder shots to hide an extra 20 pounds around his mid-section.

    Yeah what a horrible play by Acie Law. Gallo has to hit those, but thats 2 straight gamewinning defensive plays by Gallo. He had a great game, along with Wilson and Dlee. Wilson and Buckets may be the two dumbest players to ever step on a basketball court. Its just insane how they don’t seem to understand what is going on. JUst a miserable play by both of them, more on Wilson but both of them need to be aware.

    You don’t like D’antoni or Walsh, does this mean you renounce you Knicks fanhood, Bob? Orange and Blue is more than D’antoni and Walsh, every real Knicks fan knows this. And if D’antoni and Walsh are enough to convince him to stop being a Knicks fan then what was his excuse during the Zeke era? Was he hibernating?

    Again, if you’re not a Knicks fan and all your posts are antagonistic diatribes about kool aid and how the Knicks suck without a shred of constructive arguments that actually pertain to basketball, THEN YOU ARE A TROLL.

    I’ve been saying it since Harrington arrived, Chandler just can’t play with Al. He defers to him, becomes static and generally becomes useless a weakside player.

    He does play much better with Gallo. Much was made of Gallo’s drive to the hoop late in Friday’s game, but nobody really commented on how Chandler set a big time pick on Gallo’s defender. It’s the little things that make them a team.

  • bob go knicks

    LOL

  • bob go knicks

    maybe to cure your insomnia

  • bob go knicks

    he made one at the end of the game passing the ball to al buckets
