Yeah, that's sort of punk. The Knicks D hasn't been good, but he could have said, even this "Well, normally they don't play good D, but today they had it together".

It still even fits in the insult.

Has anyone else noticed that whenever Asst. Coach Howard Eisley is interviewed, he always talks nonchalant/monotone and sounds as if he's still a player instead of a coach?? :crazy:

Wasn't he one of KP's first wall victims? Teams dont like losing to us.

Knicks played defense, Knicks won the game. If they could maintain this intensity every night out, they'd be sparking debates about what playoff seed they get instead of whether they can be an 8th seed or not. Unfortunately, they haven't proven they can keep up this intensity for more than two consecutive games so far...but on this one, that was as good an effort as we've gotten all season; up there with the Chicago performance and the home court advantage actually looks like it's developing into something. It'll be a really great development to be able to say you're gonna need to be at your best to steal one at the Garden.

I was debating this.

A lot of the board thinks KP is best as a 5.

Willie isn't some combo PF/C. He's about a pure a C as they go. I don't see him as a guy who would have even dealt well with PF's from 10+ years ago, no less the basically SF's who play PF today, by and large. Then again, both he and KP are good passers and unselfish and space well. This is post Melo.

Not sure Willie/KP/Melo works THAT much better than Noah/KP/Melo, in terms of defense. Obviously the offense is better.

Not even a month into the season and teams teams wanna start labeling us? Cool. We gonna beat that ass of yours again Paul.

I think it's a fact more than a label.

Smacked their defense around with continuous movement and pick & roll/pop action.

Melo was invincible in iso.

Knicks Defense looked well-prepared and had the hawks best weapons bottled up, frustrated, and not able to get to their comfort zones. KOQ and Willy punked Dwight. Melo found Jose's stash and was moving like a madman on defense. Holiday and Rose were especially unwelcoming with their perimeter defense.

Impressive win. I love Noah, but his lack of shooting ability clogs up the offense.

Make the playoffs or tank...

It's one or the other...

This franchise will be a complete joke if they finish 9th...

The won't make any additional play off money or get a high draft pick for the future.

Just stuck in mediocre

Willy played some good defense on Dwight. What a sissy that guy is. Can't stand him. He got so mad that he whacked Willy in the face after Willy defended him perfectly. So glad we beat that big sissy. The way we played today shows that this team is capable of being a playoff team and compete in the East. Obviously not close to Cleveland but they can compete. However, games like the Wizards game make me shake my head. Hopefully those games will not happen again.

Jennings is such a good distributor that I don't even care about his shooting % as much. He doesn't take many shots anyway but his court vision is great and he breaks down defenses well and pushes the ball.

Great team win. I don't think anyone had a bad game. Maintained control from start to finish.

Just don't play them all at the same time, and bring Willy off the bench as a supersub

Melo will spend most of his minutes at PF and a little at SF
KP will split his minutes at PF and C
Willy will come off the bench and just play C

KP and Willy on offense will compensate for any defensive liabilities that it may cause. And I honestly do think KP/Willy can work on defense. If we were able to make KP and Lopez work last year we can make Willy and KP work down the road
