"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
i have a feeling we are going to run that lee iso play with chan cutting a lot tonight
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
nice adjustment last night, get the defensive rebound/inbounds and go fast
our advance scouts must have picked up on some nj tendencies
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
did anyone see the nets player before the timeout try to like hip check galo?

sergio's constant overdribbling has hurt this team of late

can we just use bricks to commit 6 quick fouls so he doesn't have to play most of the game

i want bill walker to go tanya harding on al harrington
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
or better yet, can we get ahold of Agent 0's gun collection, smuggle them to NYC and plant them in Al's locker?
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
i figured out our big problem
our in ability to rebound a missed shot buy one of our guys; if a coach is telling his team to concede the missed shot in favor of getting back on d then he wants his plays to sprint back. however in our situation when the shot goes up we just stand and watch while the other team rebounds and gets deep into our end of the court on transition.
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
it explains why we are on the worst opponent fg% teams
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
Can anybody explain briefly
I am not watching the game…
What is with the fouls on Gallo and Lee. WTF happened in the 2nd quarter?
they got into foul trouble late in the first quarter, and then both of them picked up their 3rd fouls in mid 2nd quarter as our lead was shrinking
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
i wouldnt even say chan or lee because both commit turnovers that are easy to avoid
Tmac is about it, gallo rarely has the ball and passes it when he does have it but he has shown high iq with timely blocks and somewhat good position on the low post with mismatches

And so said the old man!

if that's the case, why have the knicks been called for more fouls by 2-1 margin?

"k guys we got em where we want em, lets pick it up on the defensive end and use the crowd, they are the real 6th man!"
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
@ jlaw
well. ok. I’ll give you that! But the guy almost never dunk. He must have saved his dunks for the knicks!
And so said the old man!
Sweet, you're not a fool of a fan!
Good news. You can stay I guess
Ok, THANK YOU EDDIE HOUSE!
Sad thing is, we need Eddie House to defend our paint…
There's no such thing as Nets fans, b/c if they existed they wouldn't be looking to leave NJ!

Lee has to be the best palyer the Knicks have had in a long time. Too bad the Knicks will lose him this summer.

I have to respectfully disagree, sir!!! There is no way a Lebron is coming to NY with that excuse you guys have as “Coach.” D’Antoni’s D cannot Defend teh lowly Nets, how is lebron gonna come to a team like that.
And so said the old man!
by KJV on Mar 6, 2010 9:17 PM EST up reply actions
LeBron had to committ to D before the Cavs as a team bought in
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
Not true. Brown is not an offensive coach, but he surely is a defensive coach. Brown is like Jeff Van Gundy
And so said the old man!
by KJV on Mar 6, 2010 9:22 PM EST up reply actions
LeBron didn't step his defense up until last season, and even then he's not a good man on man defender all he does is do those 1-2 highlight reel blocks and 1-2 gamble steals
ever wonder why he never guards a decent player, and when he does they usually go off on him?
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
but they continue to lose in the playoffs and every year their management needs to get the "final" piece for lebron
In Donnie We Trust!
by IB on Mar 6, 2010 9:26 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
5 points for u nets fan
1. We don’t actually care for lebron, we know he’s good and we’d like him but we rather just get better overall
2. Every player that is used to winning and has played for dantoni says he’s wonderful and loved playing for him
3. We don’t have a center and the refs been giving the calls to the nets
4. No one in their right mind would play in that swamp called the meadowlands nor would they want to be unsure where they will play for the next years so the losing is for nothing because the percentage of failure for the nets is extremely and tragically high
5. Half of this team will not be here next year, thus making this season a wash
In Donnie We Trust!
by IB on Mar 6, 2010 9:24 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
1. Maybe you don’t, but i’m sure most posters here disagree with you.
2. As my Nets kill you, let me tell you somethig. Players who say they love D’antoni say that because you can have huge numbers playing for him in his 7 sec. or less system.
3. Stop making excuses for the defenseless Knicks. Excuses are the tools of the weak and incompetent.
4. Press conference about the Nets Playing in Newark was yesterday. Visit njnets.com to see it. Groundbraking ceremony for Brooklyn is on Thursday. There’s no uncertainty, sir!!!
5. oh, never mind. Did you see Courtney Lee’s buzzer beating three just now!!!
And so said the old man!
by KJV on Mar 6, 2010 9:33 PM EST up reply actions
irrelevant and lack of substance is wat i think of ur points
Actually I feel bad for u. Your a nets fan and if ur from nj then u should be upset because their coming to brooklyn. Its not an excuse, its fact that david lee is our center at 6"9 and we’ve been exploited for weeks in paint because of that. And fyi good players post big numbers, great players see potential for extraordinary numbers.

didn't say all, I just think the guy is a clown
and brings little to the table. I’m shocked so many people think he’s a good coach
if u win games ur a good coach
he won alot of those in phoenix.
but the guys we have on the floor. not even red auerbach could make these chumps into champs

+10
Seriously most players today don’t play for the love of the sport evident by david lee holding out til the end of the summer for 10mil instead of acknowledging that we need to get better and buying into the donnie walsh plan which is why I don’t want to bring him back because he is not a leader and does not deserve 10mil a year
In Donnie We Trust!
by IB on Mar 6, 2010 9:43 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
yes..cuz Walsh specifically tried to make the Knicks better in 2009 for Pringles.
He took away nothing and added parts to the star-ladden core of the Knicks in order to help them win, but Pringles just couldn’t get anything out of it.
Master of the squeegee
look i get that the team sucks, but i'm still not impressed
he puts players in the doghouse, has erratic rotations, doesn’t bring Dfense, they can’t execute plays out of timeouts (see every last second play of a game/quarter) and i hate his goofy press conferences where he shrugs and laughs. Guys like playing for him cuz he lets them run up and down and doesn’t stress D. The fact that he never got passed the 2nd round with a Nash/Amare/Marion team in their prime tells me all I need to know
OK
We’ll see.
All I’m saying is there’s nothing at all to draw conclusions from. He’s in a tough situation, as most of the players on the team they aren’t a part of this teams plans..cuz its basically talked about every day.
If he fucks up next year with a team…OK.
As for right now…..no one knows. The plan was always for him to coach the 2010 team, so maybe let him do that first
Master of the squeegee
+1
Too many people complain about defence but no 1 on this team was known for defence before he came and most of them were already scolded for defensive low IQ’s. And this a coach that actually made jeffries look better

good, im happy for your 7th win, that's 1 less ping pong ball for your team
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
This is not MDA's fault when we don't have a physical big or a an athletic swingman in his prime
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
no PG either..don’t forget no PG
No reliable scorer, no reliable distributor, no one who had a defensive mentality before he was a Knick (aside from Jeffries)
Master of the squeegee
yeah they are missing a lot
but explain how they played really well for a month, playing d-fense and sharing the ball. Makes me think they just don’t play hard all the time and D’antoni is not getting to them
Jeffries, Jared.
It was NOT a coincidence that after he was traded the D took a shit.
C’mon man….
Master of the squeegee
c'mon man, they were playing like shit before the trades
also Hughes was one of the best defenders on the team, then MDA got the brilliant idea to bench Lebron’s boy for 15 games straight without explanation.
Good job coach!
Hughes?
For real?
A man needs an excuse to bench Hughes? He sucks, that’s why he was benched
Master of the squeegee
well thats an easy 1
Ego. Look at who has failed defensively and who has picked it up. Gallo, sergio, will, and even lil eddie and td. Tmac can’t be judged. Now look at who constantly fails bricks, bender, lee and duhon. Lee is ok on man to man but is atrocious on help and even though its apparent now, he always had that problem. Now at this point most players are looking toward to ending the season. But as you can see over the last three games gallo and will have started to come out their shells a little more because they realize its up to them. There are only 3 guaranteed contracts next year. Also, when they started slumping in january u have to remember that hughes was upset and that came after the n8gate. So once again ego is the culprit even if players won’t say it but by the looks of things their now playing for contracts

right and MDA's job is to manage egos
you don;‘t think every team in the league isn’t filled with malcontent jerkoffs making the middle level exception and thinking the world revolves around them?
As filled as the Knicks are? No
Master of the squeegee
by FreeBradshaw on Mar 6, 2010 10:00 PM EST up reply actions
yes i do and if u notice, those teams are the ones losing, trading or they have a superstar that keeps them in check
Ex: kobe-artest or jackson to the bobcats
In the end players are commodities and what they bring to the table makes them valuable. Harrington is not valuable, hughes wasn’t valuable, jeffries increased his value from coaching by mda, and curry is definitely not valuable evident by portland and houston needing a big and both passed on him
In Donnie We Trust!

or how bout someone who isnt streaky. somone
I rather have someone who goes 5/10 every day
then someone who goes 10/10 every 8 games
Easy Breezy, Off the Heezy, by Weel the threel!
REPEAT AFTER ME TRUST IN THE PLAN, WE WILL BE BETTER!
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
I think Lee's conditioning is off
His shooting % drops significantly in the 4th quarter of every game I can remember. No lift in the jump shot.
I know I just said I want to win this game, but honestly, just realize we will have an entirely different team that will actually be held accountable next season.
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
jog my memory
how exactly did the nets get a hold of jason kidd ?
bald headed Piece of Shit we traded 2 first rounders for after it was widely known he was washed up.
Master of the squeegee
I suppose that says more about the NYK D than it does about Lopez, uh? is that your reasoning?

The Patrick Ewing Curse; f Bill Simmons and his whole theory about the Knicks being a better team in yr 1 after him; he forgot to mention that Patrick was a big reason we beat Toronto in 2000 and his absence hurt us against them in 2001

Next year will be the same bull- nobody is coming this summer
0-17 from 3 point range, letting the nets hold their largest lead of the season, not even making it to 100-

The Nets played the role of Ike Turner and we played the role of Tina

Knicks set a record for an 0-fer. The previous record was 0-16 by Washington
And so said the old man!
you set the record for being the most annoying Net fan on the net
you edged out Semore from Hackensack and Aunt Linda from Paramus by a narrow margin. Congrats kid!

He might have been able to get teams to make 3s in Phoenix, but tonight he’s 0-17. Clearly washed up.
I had to write my own recap of the game
http://www.postingandtoasting.com/2010/3/7/1360693/tonight-the-fans-at-msg-were
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
Good recap
and great reminder from ‘Serious Garbage Time’.
Let me quote:
“Exactly 10 years ago the Bulls tried the same technique of tanking a season for cap space. Nobody of note signed with the Bulls and they were spurned by Tracy McGrady among others. So they signed Ron Mercer (!) with their cap space.
Their record the next season? 20-61”
Amen
