I'm really surprised it wasn't Kemba....haha. Oh well, fun game and a good win! In a season that could be very long, I hope we can at least make games like this, against big market "good" teams a regular. Loose to Cleveland all you want, but sprinkle in a few really good wins against the Heat, Celtics, Knicks, Lakers, and so on, and I'll be content.

One thing I would like to say. Stun, I think you go a little overboard with your hatred for Silas and anyone not named Kemba/Biz. ALTHOUGH, having said that, I do feel that Kemba and Biz should had gotten more minutes. You would think that on a night where we have Fields as the starting 2 guard we could go small a lot more often with DJ and Kemba. I'm not so sure how Hendo would had done on Melo or if he ever was on Melo, but I think I would rather DJ/Kemba/Hendo than DJ/Hendo/UPS down the stretch. And it amazes me that even with Diaw out part of the time with an injury we still couldn't find a way to give Biz more than 4 minutes? Biz would had been a good match-up on Amare, I think. Just wish we could continue to build on what he has been doing by giving him more minutes. Just don't agree with only playing the kid 4 minutes, should be getting closer to the neighborhood of 15 every single night.

With Maggette likely missing a few games (pure speculation based on compact schedule) hopefully now we can get more Kemba minutes, even if it is in small ball bunches. I sure hope we don't see UPS for 30 minutes....

I don't think I've ever seen this clown catch a pass cleanly and he never goes up strong to the hoop. Always waits for defensive contact first. Just terrible, can't wait until he's gone. Wish we had that Shumpert fellow as our starting SF. He looked like the best player on the Knicks tonight.

Shumpert is a good player. I had the chance to watch quite a few Georgia Tech games last year and the guy can flat out ball. Knicks grabbed a good player; it's just the "stars" have f*cked their chemistry up. D'Antoni's system can be good if you have the right players; guys who can shoot but not too many selfish chuckers. Mike Woodson is overrated too.

Reminds me of the times when Melo and Iverson played together. Both great players individually but you can't put them together. It's like putting Arenas with Crittenton or DJ with Larry Brown or BigSlam with Carroll; bad things will happen.
