Can we stop acting like Linn plays good defense..He gets blown by and cooked too. Along With Amare and Melo..The only guys that play solid defense on our team is Tyson, Shumpert and Jefferies,,,our guards esp. Lin gets blown by or doesnt fight over p-n-r...Amare plays bad (even though, he seems to get criticized for everything that goes wrong on defense, even when its not his fault)..And Melo just sometimes seems laisy...Novak is one of the best shooters in the league..Alot of our fans want him to start, even though he gets blown by and cant check any1 on a consistent basis...

And the biggest problem of ALL...We dont practice or focus on Defense, b/c our Coach doesnt care much about it.. Its hard to get players who are not defensive minded, to play hard on defense when you dont practice it..Just sayin.

True.

But in that particular possession it was a much needed crucial stop which Lin delivered on Jennings.
Still doesn't take away the fact that Melo and Stat didn't box out their man.

I blame LaLa and Ciara. There hotness must be distracting Melo and Stat too much.

Yeah I like the emotion and heart.... But Lin ain't in a position to be calling guys out like that.

Someone remind Lin on who the **** Melo is.


The guy that came home, only to get booed roughly a season into his Knicks career?

Anyways, I liked what Lin did. Has a reason to be upset. If the coaching staff isn't going to point out he obvious, you like that he is willing to at least try. Always want to see players that want to win, and show emotion when it doesn't happen

Remember 9 days ago Lin was being compared to Magic F'n Johnson... Lol.


Sorry.. But people who built this up deserve all the mockery they get.

What because he doesn't make as much money as Melo and Stat?
I thought that was the point guard's job to get his guys to play together?

Anyways this reminds me of a situation I had in this brothel in Mexico where the Madam screamed at me for not leaving in a timely fashion.
I swear guys, after day 3 I was planning on flying home to mow my lawn. :roll:

He had a reason to yell, considering he did a great job defending Jennings on that possession. No one put a body on Ilyasova. That's just terrible. PEACE.

Lin is "screaming" out of frustration.....and that's the coaches fault for not drawing up set plays.

This is truly promising. Lin is actually gaining respect now, real respect.

How can you say we'd have these players if we didnt trade for Melo, You cant say we'd have Davis,Lin or Novak etc..We actually have a better team now. Its about focusing on Defense and getting chemistry.
