This is so beyond awesome.

Landry Fields gets his Bruno Mars on at a season ticket holder event last night:

Landry is a better singer than BB player. imo

Where is the whole thing at?

They have this with the Rangers every year and on their website, you get to see the whole thing.

WTF Mike Francesa is talking about?

He keeps saying Chandler "is not a good finisher". What?

These radio people are killing me.

Knicks ditched the black in their center court logo.

Next is getting new uni's next year. Not really new though. More vintage.

Also need to change the lane from orange back to blue (Hahn has been beating this drum for a while).

I don't know how much more of Amare I could take.

How does 3 seasons and 31 games sound?

[grizy]

Melo is making good and fast decisions... and making his shots.

Lin's taking care of the ball and dishing.

That's two out of three now. We just need Amare now.

Like it's a good thing I am going to AC right now for some drinks.

[Panamaniac42]

No defense and 2 or 3 possessions killed by poor officiating. Amar'e didn't even make contact on that "charge". How does Luke Harangody get the benefit of the doubt?

[THEBOSS84]

A few times already I've seen 4-5 Knicks around one Cavs player and the Cavs player still managed to get the offensive board.

[SLURPEE]

I don't care what anyone says, I think Melo was taking a shot at D'Antoni when he mentioned how he like the way the Heat prepared.
And he would like to see the Knicks do that.


I've said before there are too many nights when this team looks unprepared. Mainly against bad teams.

btw. This team looks much better when Lin is attacking. He's deferring too much. imo

[grizy]

Jeremy, my man, the entire league knows you're a bigger scoring threat than Amare now. Amare's open because they aren't even guarding him anymore.

This isn't terrible. Watch what is going on with Lin: he's easing himself in.

He's going to end up with a monster line tonight. You can see him figuring/feeling things out and slowly applying pressure and decisions.

No comment on Amar'e.

[SLURPEE]

I just don't understand these rotations.

Why isn't Shumpert in with the starters, guarding Irving? Instead he's off the bench to guard Sessions.

Makes sense. smh

[Snatch Catch]

The FT thing is beyond ridiculous at this point.

[JfromJersey]

I thought the extra practice time was supposed to do wonders for this team.

[SLURPEE]

They didn't have much practice. Only practiced yesterday. The NBA didn't allow teams that played last Thursday to practice Monday.


Melo needs to be more involved. D'Antoni needs to figure SOMETHING out. He's your best scorer. Utilize him.

I'm saying this until I'm blew in the face. Fields should not be starting. The reasoning earlier was he wanted Shumpert's energy off the bench.
With J.R here, you don't need that.

Lin needs to stop trying to fin in and attack. His the second best scorer after Melo. Forget Amar'e.
There's a reason why he's been open all year....

[THEBOSS84]

Nice little comeback..

[Snatch Catch]

Jesus, Lin got rocked again on that layup, and no call.

In general I happen to think that Lin gets A LOT of calls. I didn't see the play you're referring to though.

[GimeMoMuny]

I understand the ISO pain, but Melo has to be allowed 3 seconds, once in a while.

[Panamaniac42]

Yeah there was nothing wrong with that possession he just missed the shot, it happens.


Amar'e's "defense" is deplorable.
