Knicks vs Nuggets - January 21st, 2012. 7:30pm EST

good game so far. amar'e playing like the max player we signed him up to be, defense and some offense. had some defesensive lapses aka losing his man but overall he's hit a bright spot on defense tonight. amar'e is also willing to pass like no other today...same can't be said about melo

Don't expect him to play the same the next game.

we'll make that judgement if he continues that for the second half lol

Piazza looks weird

The ugly side effects of steroids and HGH

bs, Piazza was clean, no big head or hulk arms, dude was just great.

[kNicksGmen]

15 assists at the half and only 6 turnovers, that's what I'm talking about Knicks!

Love the crowd yelling at MElo to pass

I can't believe I fell asleep and missed the first half.... So we're looking good out there tonight?

pretty much same as always, role players are actually making some of their shots tonight. we're still not getting many easy buckets. walker is 5/5 so and 3/3 from 3pt. without that it'd be a tie game.

[Striders]

Nobody's talking about how good our defense is...

that is the difference maker

It's been alright. We let them take a lot of open 3s. They haven't been hitting it.

Melo is the kind of guy you love to play pick up games against, because he always takes his time before making a move so you can gather yourself and defenses can recover if someone else broke them down first.

Love the crowd yelling at MElo to pass

And he had 4 assists

Well Marbury averaged eight assists a game in his career, was he getting his mates involved ?

Tonight
Knicks with Melo are -3
Knicks without Melo are +11

Marbury got way more hate than he deserved.

[Logical]

Still convinced Piazza is gay

Was thinking the same thing....He sounded/looked fruity as hell in that interview

[ShotgunNitty]

he makes a lot of what you would consider bad shots though. he's injured and looks bad now. he definitely needs to iso less but when the other guys go cold, that melo iso is a deadly weapon when he's healthy.

But the only cold one is Melo right now

Injured buddy. Im sure you played ball on a certain level. Hard to stay in rhythm when injured.

I'm a Mets fan and I know for sure he was not clean.

Neither is David Wright.

I have no problem with that. Just stop taking shots when you can clearly see the double team coming.

win or less, subject to the THREES

guys that are injured never seem to understand they can't make the shots they usually do. they always think they'll warm up eventually.

Knicks bench outscoring Nuggets bench 24-7.

stats aren't everything. melo made 3 perfect passes to a wide open douglas for a 3, he missed them all. but when melo was on the bench douglas and walker made some shots, nothing to do with melo at all.

[mpharris36]

melo should aim for a triple double tonight....drives to the basket and rebound....don't force up jumpers!

How many times did he lose his man? Take bad shot on one end and then let gallo beat you back door on the other. No excuse for that.

I agree for sure, but that what happens when you lost confidence in your teammates and now trying to gain that confidence back
