Game Thread: Knicks vs. Suns- 1/18/12
Phoenix Suns at New York Knicks, Jan 18, 2012 7:30 PM EST
Evening, marbles! The Suns are in New York this evening, which is always a fun/awkward/grating experience, given that the guy who coaches the Knicks used to be a Phoenix fan or something. I've seen the last couple of Suns games, and they're a not a very good team, at least on one end of the floor. Phoenix's slow, saggy defense should-- SHOULD-- be just what New York's shooters need to get in a rhythm. There will certainly will be open looks. On the other hand, the Suns' offense, while nowhere near as zippy as it used to be, is pretty solid. Steve Nash and Marcin Gortat run a splendid pick-and-roll, and Phoenix has a couple guys who could punish New York from outside if left open (including our old friend Channing Frye, who will probably be guarded/ignored by Amar'e Stoudemire). Anyway, I'm hoping the Knicks can slow down a relatively effective Phoenix offense while exploiting their reinvigorating their own scoring on the other end.

My question is
is said dating site between poodles, for humans to find a suitable poodle mate, or a poodle to find an open minded human?
Stat and Melo
Had no chemistry last season, they continue to have no chemistry this season. We re-signed one of the greatest PGs of our generation only to waste our amnesty clause on him and sign an overrated center. Our bench is one of, if not the worst bench in the entire league and that makes me unhappy

I'm sad about Chauncey Billups too
but he didn’t really fit the D’Antoni system, and was a stopgap for another year. However, we Instead we got a center who was able to shut down Dwight Howard, who will be a good player and a defensive leader for years to come
Stat and Melo… I don’t know. Chemistry could build itself, or maybe they need more play time separately.
But still, let’s be positive.
The Knicks are 4-1 when Amar'e and Melo both score over 20 points
We dont need to have them throwing behind the back passes to be successful. Lebron and Wade actually don’t fit together that well except for on the fast break, and does tossing alley-oops back and forth really count as chemistry? In the halfcourt, their chemistry isn’t any better than Melo and Amar’e. Not saying Melo and Amar’e are better, but their chemistry isn’t that bad, it’s still just a work in progress.
Also, Tyson Chandler is posting the highest PER of his career, blocking more shots, and if I’m correct, was the only center besides Dwight Howard who was invited to the Olympic basketball camp.

Idle thought of the day:
Is the lure of Steve Nash coming to NY this offseason the only thing keeping D’Antoni from being fired?

Well Steve is coming regardless
I mean the guy lives here, loves it here and is still one of the best players in the league, despite his age. He’d be a great addition to this team
by Guess Who's Back? on Jan 18, 2012 7:00 PM EST up reply actions
I'm pretty sure he still has the benefit of poor team management above him
and the possibility that the knicks will turn the season around (with or without his help) on his side.
I'm getting tired of signing star players who are past their prime.
Would be nice to have a home grown superstar for once.

Star players who are past their prime
We haven’t had alot of those. Starbury was in his prime when we got him. Steve Francis was one of the best PGs in the league from 1999 to 2005, but when we got him at the peak of his career, he just lost the ability to play. Hardaway and Rose were great in the the 90s, but both were shells of their former selves when we got them

As sensitive as big burly NBA players have proven to be,
Let’s ALL cool it on the Steve Nash Talks before Baron has a breakdown. That includes Hahn, ESPN at large, Zwerling specifically (just posted about it on that blog), and all of us a little
Usually motivates players to do better
For example, if I remember correctly, when people threw out stuff about Nash to the Knicks or CP3 to the Knicks last year, Felton posted a trible double against Phoenix and like a 15 and 15 game against CP3.
Baron already has enough motivation, but that stuff might help
KNICKS NOW

Let's hope it goes that way
Felton is a special kind of competitor. But we’ve seen half our team at least this year crumble under similar types of pressure
Most Likely to Have a Career Game Tracker
Tonight is a difficult choice as most of the Suns players are either old or very bad.
Last year Marcin Gortat would’ve been the cool choice, but he is somewhat neutralized tonight by the presence of Tyson Chandler.
But the Suns do have a stretch-4 in Channing Fyre and guys who can hit open 3s.
So tonight’s picks are….Channing Fyre and Jared Dudley!
Interesting fact: For the love of God do not leave these guys open.
Those are my picks as well!

Understandable, but
Knicks have maybe a 4 year window w/ Amare/Chandler/Melo. Going after proven guys makes a ton more sense right now.
also true,
but why not focus on the future a little as well, and build a team like the Thunder that could be in legit contention for near a decade (vs. our “still building” with possibly only a few years left)?
Cut to Indiana and Philly as well
Well the Sonics got those high draft picks
Which got them The Durantula and Westbrook. We’ve yet to get one of the top three picks

I've been thinking we should throw the season
We’re not good enough to win, so let’s be bad enough to win big in the offseason. BAM blowing minds. The bad news is the wizards might not win 6 games all year, and we’re already there
This coming draft is supposed to be soooo deep that teams will do well in the middle of the first round
We just need to get ahold of a pick before the draft.

And then what?
They’ll have windows closing as well. Especially seeing how young our core is. When you think about it, DWade is already 30.. Chemistry wins games, not talent. You think the last spurs championship was better than our team? Hell no, but they had enough chemistry and rapport to compete.

Well, depending on where the team is
After 4 years it will be time to rebuild. Over drool over John Wall’s free agency or something.
Haha John Wall is definitely the kind of Almost-There Talent
that we could brand and pay as a superstar, and see more disappointment. Respect for his game, but he’s not truly elite, and my guess is he won’t be in four years either

I was'nt calling anyone out here
the press has a habit of calling D’antoni an offensive genious. I know you like the team, I do too, but people don’t have to get sensitive because someone says something negative about the team.
Unfortunately,
job-holders seem only to be more and more inept as you go up from MDA. I agree with everything you’re saying though, make no mistake. My guess is D’Antoni knows he’s terrible, but he’s been hired for a lot of money, so he wouldn’t say no. Neither would I. It’s the idiots that hired him and have kept him around who are to blame
so obviously MDA's offensive schemes don't fit this team
which team/schemes do you think this team would benefit from copying the most?

dude, pass.
oh my god.
Take away 17 Melo bricks, and this is an extremely winnable game.
11-43 with 7 turnovers for Melo and Amare
guy keeps giving all the credit to Hill for stopping Melo but he always takes those shots

I’ve been saying for years how that man has added years to the lives of all Yankee fans just by taking the pressure off late.
he should miss on purpose

Trade Melo
He just does NOT fit in this offense

How about we don't trade Melo
and we wait to see what happens when Baron is in the lineup.

carried our team?
that’s what he wants us to think. he puts up numbers in losing efforts… diminishing the skills and confidences of other players.

trade the max player at his lowest value point. Good luck finding takers.
by Chuck Burly on Jan 18, 2012 10:02 PM EST up reply actions
right
cause there are no teams out there who would take Melo?
2012 New York Mets, World Series Champions!
We'd find takers but
he’s absolutely right that we wouldn’t get anything close to equal value for him
Not in this case

Clearly you hate Melo

by Chuck Burly on Jan 18, 2012 10:08 PM EST up reply actions
i very much don't like melo...
and i do think a lot of our other guys problems stem from a “star” unwilling or unable to evolve as a player. he’s uncoachable.
by bucketsncents on Jan 18, 2012 10:09 PM EST up reply actions
obviously
but most teams would love a scorer of his talent, they just would be willing to try a new offensive strategy
2012 New York Mets, World Series Champions!
do we even have an offensive strategy?
cause I can’t tell what it is
2012 New York Mets, World Series Champions!
that's why the Knicks need to dunk
Amar’e can dunk. If he dunked as much as he did in past years, the Knicks would be 9-5
unfortunately he's been missing dunks too.
But with our atrocious efficiency and shooting %s, I’d love to see more dunking. It also affects momentum in a good way
He came home!
You want to make him homeless?

I need to go take a dump in the Suns announcers next meal – made that so much harder to watch having to listen to them. Honestly, the video game announcers on my 2k11 would have done a better job

Why don't I just root for the nets?
they’ll be here next year, and I can actually watch their embarrassments without too any trouble. and their owners are straight BALLIN
If you have to ask, then you're not really a Knicks fan

I hate Brooklyn
But having a team right by the N/Q/R line is pretty convenient. I’m looking forward to seeing other teams play there.
That's what i like to hear!!
i hear the amenities are going to be ridiculous. hopefully the ticket prices aren’t
rooting for the Nets would be like rooting for the Expos

I try so hard to avoid exaggerations...
but it feels like last year never happened and we suck as usual

THINGS TO BE HAPPY ABOUT
Shumpert had a great game except for that
The Knicks outrebounded the opponent by 16 including 18 offensive boards…and still lost. Good God
Shumpert dropped 20 and had 4 steals! And Fields 17 on 50% FG! Chandler had 17 boards!
Amar’e and Melo shot 12-44 combined. Harrellson inexplicably played only 8 minutes despite being clearly more productive than either

the suns won, but they didn't really win tonight
knicks just gave it to them on a silver platter
2012 New York Mets, World Series Champions!
There was no point in even playing the game
And there isn’t really any point in the Knicks ever playing if Amare and Melo are just going to shoot stupid jumpers all day long
I'm curious how much that wrist was affected but either way there's no excuse for taking that many shots when the shots not there
Have a fucking conscience dude
I was about to be all :(
j/k. I completely agree. I appreciate the effort with the 11 boards, but if you can’t shoot, don’t shoot!
who the hell is still putting him on the floor
he’s got to rest a few games. can’t fuck around with that ever especially (brace yourself for hackneyed comment) in a lockout-shortened condensed season
I agree that he needs rest
but to be fair, if Carmelo Anthony wants to play and if the medical staff doesn’t say no, there are only a couple of coaches in the league who could say no to him without backlash (and actually, one of them, Phil Jackson, is technically not in the league anymore)
what about simply protecting an investment?
you could be right, but that doesn’t make IT right, you know?
Maybe coaches should ALL have that power, or enough balls not to give a shit about backlash
Amare 7/22 and melo 5/22...the hell is wrong with these two
they are having their worst shooting years with us
Question
Wouldnt that have been an 8 second violation when Jeffries fouled Nash? We used a foul to give but Nash was still in the backcourt when he was fouled again at 16.9 seconds left.
I think that was or would have been an 8 second violation if Dantoni wasn’t screaming to foul.

peace everyone – be nice
Imagine Tyson Chandler with Mosgrov as back up
Gallo, Wilson Chandler and STAT with Shump and B Davis in the back court?
That line up would score points. Damn you Dolan!
by I know smart people on Jan 18, 2012 10:05 PM EST reply actions
I don't think so...
Everybody on here conveniently forgets that Gallo and Wilson sucked about 2/3 of the time. All this pre trade love is a rewriting of history. Get over it all ready and root for the Knicks, not some bullshit mirage…
Gallo and Wilson sucked 2/3 of the time?
It’s fair to like the trade of course, but don’t make stuff up
Both Gallo and Will would disappear for halves and games at a time...
They were not as great as everybody makes them out to be…
Wil would disappear
Gallo, even when the shot wasn’t falling, was one of the very best in the NBA at getting to the line. But I think the point is more about that team as a unit.
EXACTLY!!

As an Astronomer
I can vouch for that
2012 New York Mets, World Series Champions!
No he won't
Maybe $10 per. But he’s an excellent player.
Nuggets beat the 76ers tonight
Led by Andre Miller’s near triple double. To think, the Knicks could have traded Felton for him and been so much better this year.
Miller 's been mediocre mostly cuz his apathy towards D and what not I dunno, maybe if he was starting
cuz he’s malcontent over not starting – who knows. I guess I don’t care. Just wanna see our Lone Ranger ride onto the court
i think andre miller is one of the most underrated players of the past 10 years
Every team dumps him for minimal value, and he always makes his new team so much better.
Usually I'd agree with you but this year I dunno...but again it could just be his place on the team that upsets him
he did bring it tonight on a night Gallo was MIA on O
Gallo couldn't hit the broadside of a barn last year
and was still awesome.
by Chuck Burly on Jan 18, 2012 10:09 PM EST up reply actions
Of course, Gallo's standards are pretty high shootingwise
He shot .347 for us from 3 last year, which is obviously not great for him… but for perspective, Melo’s career 3P% is .321.
Mozgov is my main motherfucker
gf got me a mozgov autograph Rookie Ticket patch for hoidays bc she knowssss. she prob saw my web history because i was looking at these after the trade

I know I should stop living in the past
But the Felton-STAT PnR offense reached heights that the team has not sniffed since the trade.
This team is going to get better though. Even if some of the problems are real and lasting, it can’t possibly stay THIS bad.

Melo needs to scale down the shots
and look for other people. I know Stat is a 100 million dollar man and all, but maybe him not being the man anymore and him being in trade rumors is affecting him as much as not having an effective PG. The defense has picked up at least.
I love Ricky Rubio.
he’s a ball player. a lot of guys do a couple things well, but he plays the shit out of some basketball
