    Dmo needs to work on his defense.

    Nah, game's not televised. It's the business partnership with TNT that Stern cares about, not the fans. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    I think after last game there's going to be changes. Especially if Harden's not playing. Even if he playing they will no doubt limit his minutes. I think the injury scare really brought attention to the coaching staff's misuse of Harden.

    Harden will rest, Lin will run the play, Rox will lose...T.D. to start after that

    for like 3 minutes... and the reason he wasn't attacking is the lack of set screens, due to a small line up (patterson - C, delfino - PF). Knicks knowing how to set some good screens is a big reason why the whole linsanity thing happened.


    but it's way easier to say that dude fell off ;)

    I kind of hope Harden doesn't play. He needs to rest and this is almost a sure loss. Finally hopefully we will get to see Lin as the primary playmaker.

    You know, you're taking jabs at the wrong person. But regardless, there's multiple possessions in 3 minutes where you can show you belong on the team. That's how many end-of-the-bench players get playing time. That's how Jeremy Lin got playing time. So 3 minutes is eternity for players looking to fit into a different system or to get PT.

    But yeah, it's quite easy to make excuses for a player's shortcomings. ;).

    Spurs are red hot while our best player is injured. You guys might wanna be prepared for this one to get ugly.

    Uh, no one can stop Parker but Parker himself. They're playing on different level. I didn't know that the Roxx are already contenders.
