Noah will still start. I doubt this game will change anything

Horny is infinitely better than any coach since JVG. Making adjustments

While I love the idea of KP at the 5, against the Boogies,Howards,Gasol,Rolos and Unibrows of the world hes gonna be siting with 3 fouls in the 1st qtr cuz refs aint giving him that vet respect yet, so it cant always be the case.

I HATE his contract, but let's not jump out the window based off 1 game against the Mavs. The Knicks had a positive net rating when Noah was on the court coming into tonight's game...everyone else who gets regular rotation minutes had a negative rating. Lineups with KP at the 5 had the WORST defensive efficiency in the NBA coming into this game. The lineup played well tonight, but we need to see this happen consistently.

Props to Hornacek for sticking with what was working.

Offense iq is definitely not lacking from this kid. Bank shot with his height is unblockable. Plus, putting him at the 5 makes him a deterrent on the paint again. Love it

Looked like Noah spoke to the team in that huddle at the end of the game. Maybe saying he's willing to come off the bench?

Mavs really suck huh.. Losing to the lowly Knicks

I think depending on the match up you can start KP at the 5. Bogut was never going to bang down low tonight so you could get away with starting KP at half but Drummond may bully him around on wednesday. Might need to at least start noah and then stagger it the rest of the way.

Yeah KP's bank shot is so damn good. Guys don't usually take that shot as much as he does. I love when players use the glass and he uses it from different spots.

Careful with the Joakim slander.

He had 18 rebounds in the game before this one.

Melo...pass the ball bro. You can get yours at any point when it inevitably comes to you at the end of the clock. Courtney Lee needs more shots in the first and he can't get them if you're pounding the rock.

Just like you and the other KP haters? It's funny you and the other kids keep bringing this up. Grow up already.

Good second half by Melo after a first half that turned green bananas rotten

we would be really good on offense, like top 5 maybe. The only problem is rebounding and wing depth.

For an atrocious first quarter, the Knicks turned it around especially in the second half. A lot of things worry me about this team. Since preseason, I started worrying about Noah....still worried. Four seasons of $18M per season clogging up the cap? Knicks need a Center. Hard to say if Dirk had played, would the Knicks have won? Tough, tough call.

For now, I will take the win, hoping that the balance is there.
