    IF Carmelo didn't have a brain fart I think the Knicks would have won...

    Man the Rockets looking real disappointing. Maybe those preseason rankings were right. Rockets shouldn't have nail biting games against the bottom feeders

    This made a lot of difference. Hopefully, we'll get more of these...

    Not a chance.
    McHale will still start Bev.

    One of the best moments of the game was Lin giving MWP an elbow. Irony at it's finest.

    It's bothersome how easily we were able to beat the Knicks last year. We're supposed to have improved, and the Knicks are supposed to have gotten worse.

    On several of the late possessions, they went into the post with Melo despite the switch. I don't think it's a mistake, really, given how well Melo was scoring anyway. It's not crazy to choose Melo vs. Jones as opposed to throwing the ball to Bargnani and have him go at Lin.

    On the downside, we suddenly became a team of 1 center from too many centers.

    We play a hideous brand of basketball with no offensive sets. Only OKC run a worse offense relative to talent.

    Twice b2b games this season and Lin didn't play like crap. I'm impressed.

    I should have been more exact, we looked our best on OFFENSE when Dwight was on the pine.

    Harden, Parsons, and Lin were the big three tonight. 79 points they put up... Good job by TJ as well.

    That is pretty much why he was drafted though, many thought his game resembled Dirk. I just think the guy hardly plays with heart but maybe the bright lights of NYK are going to force him to play with heart or they are going to boo and harass him until he does.
