The big 3 is picking spots and taking turns. That can be down right Scary with Melo, KP, and Rose on the same page. All 3 are clutch. Courtnee Lee has a history of hitting big shots as well.

We coming together. We're going to need Jennings to pick up the pace tonight. Maybe KP steps up in Cha.

Good game guys

Like I said, don't make it a KP vs Melo Rose Vs Jennings Willy Vs Noah.

Let's make this Knicks vs whoever want it!!!

The body shaming is irrelevant to her job duties. Talking about her butt is not my thing, but she is a really poor commentator and interviewer, has no personality and she has one of the worst broadcasting voices and deliveries I've ever heard. She is literally monotone and has no inflection. She has no talent for this whatsoever and it is no wonder Tina is brought up because she was competent.

That's why guys will keep talking about her. The butt comments have nothing to do with her incompetence. Some people are butt heads.

How Harlow got this job is completely mystifying. How she still has it even more so.


My main gripe is the body shaming. It just makes me cringe, and trust me, I'm no stranger to "locker room talk". I just think it's idiotic behavior to go on and on about this chick's ass. But even if Rebecca doesn't deserve the job... who cares as long as she's not in the front office or starting at point guard? I just don't get it. WHY CARE??

To me, it's just a perfect example of how uptight and critical we are as a fan base. And it's funny because uptight and critical is how I'm coming off to some of you just by pointing this out. But it just seems like a lot of people here are always looking for something or someone to criticize or attack, and I would love to know why.

Is it something in the water? Something in the pizza?

Truth is, I rock with you guys in a big way. I have a strong bond with this board. This is the only forum on the internet that I belong to. The Knicks are the only team in sports that I care about at all. Maybe I spend too much time trying to get my fellow Knicks fans to lighten up and stop being so damn hard to please. I do that because I do actually believe it will benefit the team in the long run, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

Cause we feel like Tina was wrongfully let go, and her replacement is trash. The butt comments by others are made as a way to lash out about the whole issue(maybe in the wrong way, but whatever this board has never been 100% PC, we have had butt threads before)

We just want Tina back, she was great, enthusiastic, and she knew her job and knew basketball well.

O'Quinn also continuing to play well. We have an embarrassment of center riches.

Holiday is a nice surprise too. His jumper is not great but his D is really good, and he cuts to the basket well. If he gets his shot % up, he can be a starter. Smart player.

He's shooting 44% from 3, and 44% from the field. With his lockdown d, what more could you want?

46% from 3 in the last 5 games too. :D

As for KOQ, I'm glad I never gave up on him like others. He's finally come around this season and I really enjoy that he's embracing the hustle guy role. He looks Oakley-lite out there with the midrange J and hustle. I just want him to mold his game 100% around Oakley and embrace that type of play.

His defense has been better, although I wish it would get a tad better. The blocks have been a nice surprise though.

great all around game except rose is bad and noah needs to never start. melo got all his shots within the offense. go get em tomorrow.


Is Rose really that bad or that's Just the narrative you want to keep pushing? 16&5 only took 13 shots and held walker 8 points below avg


Rose was huge in the 4th Q not to mention a game winning block on Kember regardless of shot going in or not that was a huge block.

in all fairness Rose had a terrible game last night

he turned the ball over like crazy, left guys like KP and Melo with tough shots late in the clock and couldn't score

most of his good defense against Walker was helped by teammates


that said he, like big time players often do, recovered and made the big plays when they counted. A potential game winning shot at regulation and a game saving block at the buzzer.

so many people here literally claimed he had no place in the NBA

thats part of why i get so frustrated
this all or nothing attitude

KOQ wasn't killing it early, but then no one was to be honest

KOQ has passing skills that rival Noah, he's got an acceptable jumper and solid rebounding. He's a good man to man defender and help defender.

For his like $3mil a year he's a great player for us
