    Are you serious? The guy has 17 points. Do you want him to score all the points? :rolleyes:

    Asik makes a huge difference when he's in the game. Everything runs better... both the offense and defense.

    Asik is key to this team.

    I'm really confused with the rotations. Is Parson going to play the entire game? Morris is getting more playing time in the first half then he did all preseason!

    Wow Morris sucks.. and he gets a T over BS. Harden so far is looking OK, needs more time to gel, but they are already making plays around him, which is risky. Lin looks good, but needs to make more shot attempts. Being a knicks fan, I feel so bad that you guys have Tony Douglas as a PG lol.. horrible player. Asik is amazing.. love his game.

    Lin, Harden, and Asik all look pretty good, well Harden looks very good

    Morris is shooting this team in the foot, repeatedly

    TJones, D-Mo, and Royce should get some PT in the 2nd half

    Rid this team of Morris

    this team would need to draw more fouls in the 2rd half to win this game.

    Asik has been a non-factor on the defensive end and Lin's P&R defense is getting exposed.

    Yeah not sure what happened.

    Also we don't even need anything complex for Harden and Lin, just a picknroll, anything but ISO and jack up a shot. Any team can play great defense if you do that.

    On the other side, Pistons have a really good front court. The loss of Patterson and Jones is hurting us right now. Morris has not looked good at 4 and at this point they should give D-mo a shot.

    Offensive execution and defensive consistency are trademarks of a veteran team with chemistry.

    I think we had some good minutes but lost our focus for a few minutes.

    Bynum and Knight getting hot had more to do with us losing the 1st half than Morris and Douglas did.

    Its going to take time folks.

    McHale has no clue how to coach.

    Starters can't play the entire game.
