We need to get Demar Derozan this summer...........this game pretty much says it all in terms of our guard play on both ends

[lver of jordan]

I'm mad we wasted D Will's great game too

Game went to crap after Fisher pulled KP from playing Center

No Melo = No Win is the easiest way to explain it. Team strength just drops right off.

 

[ballinsam23]

fisher is in love with his rotation patterns, cost us the game

terrible loss

 

[flyeed]

I know Melo was out, but still it was the Nets. And Williams dropped 30. Defense was just so sus.

Shesh Joe Johnson heard the rumbles of him getting traded and he played lights out tonight

 

[flyeed]

I don't blame this one on Fisher, we couldn't get a stop in the 4th

 

[you go boy]

the team just looks lost without melo

Smh. Mad stupid. Made no sense at the moment. Like he's not a defense stopper and shot blocker. I just praised this fool too.

you could tell guys were tired after last night, too

shots were short & we missed 8 FT's

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Told y'all about this Fisher character

 

[nycknicks105]

Yeah, the Knicks are better off without Melo

 

[8pm at msg]

I wonder if O'Quinn even wants to be here anymore

 

[donewithjs]

Yeah, the Knicks are better off without Melo

I mean, of course they're not going to be better without Melo if you don't add anything in his place. If Melo goes down the Knicks have 2 legit NBA starters and a bunch of guys who have a good game every so often and then we are ready to call them legitimate pieces to our puzzle. There is a reason Grant did 4 yrs in college and still wasn't a lotto pic. There is a reason Galloway went undrafted and a reason why seraphin drew literally no interest from other teams and why Lou and Dwill and Rolo have bounced around. Yeh they have good games once in awhile but doesn't everyone.

I heard Clyde say it but idk it's not an excuse imo. Like KPs shots were short but dude was in foul trouble and sat a lot last game. And it's not like they were on the road traveling.

It's funny though because the first thing you think of if Carmelo goes down is where will the points come from, but his absence was felt more on the defensive end. Melomorphosis.

[Air Pope]

We lost to the Nets. Embarrassing.

 

[olx9o]

Sooooo are we still ready to anoint Grant as the future lol

yeah, more play time next to calderon
Work on shooting and strength in the offseason
Hopefully he can be a starter next year

That's def not an excuse, because the Celtics played last night as well and beat the Pacers.

Melo is more of a vocal leader than he and the media leads us to believe. Maybe he's not like LeBron and will yell at his guys in front of 20 million people on national TV, but he def says a lot during the games. IDK if anyone noticed, but I've been seeing/hearing him communicating a lot more during games this season. You can hear him telling his guys to get back on defense, or when D-Will is on the floor, he instructs his guys to run. He's also been telling people when to rotate and switch. Stuff like that is contagious when you see your leader exercises these qualities in-game.

We missed Melo way more than we thought we did. He's arguably having the best overall season of his career.
