All the NY media does anymore is ask questions about free agency to every star in every city the Knicks travel to....even those who aren't free agents anytime soon. Is this really what it's come to with the Knicks? Their road trips are like scouting trips these days. Only it's being done by the media, so they can't get in trouble for tampering.

Nice to see Chauncy hitting again! Melo had his way with these NY youngsters. I actually expected a blow out but win is the win! Good game everyone!

Kmart and Nene both needed one more bucket and each of them would have had a double double

Won't be OK when we play Portland's bigs or Lakers with Pau back.
Great game from Melo and CB.

Against quality big men squad we will have a trouble. Best we can do with what we got is to work on team rebounding, we are short plus not boxing out properly especially Nene, sometimes Melo /his quickness makes up for it/.

Yeah I agree.....just think this was a positive effort by the bigs, mistakes and not boxing out included. I'd rather see 11 and 11 rebounds from Nene and Kenyon, over 40 rebounds overall. As for the confidence side of their games it's looking better. Nene's stuffing that ball more often too.
We need a team with formidable bigs next to see what they've improved on. I just don't want to get down on them - there'll be plenty of time for that.
