Official NBA 2012-2013 Season Thread

Mike Woodson isn't a very good coach. He can't make adjustments to save his life, he shows an insane loyalty to some players (Kidd, JR) and buries other players. The Knicks were successful because they rained 3's this year and their defense was average.

Unless you have one of the elite guys, there's a lot of fluctuation with the rest of the coaches. It's hard to say what coach would have done a better job with this team, but Woodson is the same guy from Atlanta... so any improvement was exaggerated.

When I look at the squad he has I think he took this team as far as any coach not named Doc Rivers or Pop can take them. Ya'll got Melo, but then your second best player is JR Smith then it's a bunch of role players. They just ran into a more complete team.

I had the pacers winning in 6 so im not even surprised. Knicks just don't matchup well with them

Parker needs to start doing something or the Spurs are going to be in trouble.

I automatically gain mod status every time Carmelo loses another playoff game.

Well the larger point is.. his impact isn't so great that another coach of his level couldn't have gotten the Knicks this far. Hit a lot of 3's, have Melo save you when you needed it, stare at JR when he does something stupid. I could have done that much... but hopefully I would have realized Jason Kidd hasn't hit a shot in a month and maybe I shouldn't use the guy with the AARP card to double team.

The refs beginning to make stupid calls

That foul call on Bogut

If JR Smith shot Tupac on September 13th 1996, Tupac would still be alive right now.

Didn't like this matchup all season, but the Pacers are the better team. It is what it is.

The Knicks have been playing without a true identity all season. It works in the regular season but it doesn't in the playoffs. Knicks have no identity on offense, just a jump shooting team. It sucks but we are who we are.

I'm more worried about the future, the Knicks can't get any better with the cap restrictions. I hope the front office starts to walk the right path and comes to the realization that we need to make some difficult decisions within the next year because if we don't we can be affected by it for another 10 years.

But the way Dolan is, he'll keep everybody until there old and crippled to sell tickets.

Spurs need to press curry at all times. Curry is to quick of the dribble you need someone on him all the time.

I know the Knicks had a terrible record vs. the Bulls this year, but I think as things are standing, they would have matched up better w/ Chicago.

As far as the future, what would you do if you were the GM?

Jason Kidd should have retired after the Mavs won the title
