neither are the Knicks

They aren't when they're not shooting well. That performance last night was one of the few times this season they looked that bad. Knicks had been (arguably) the 2nd or 3rd best team in the playoffs, up to last night.

Compare that to the playoffs last season, when the Knicks didn't have guards that could pass to Melo vs. Heat. They used 24.8 iso's then.

This is the one that kills me. Watching that playoff series against Miami was brutal; it was really hard to watch. I never would've guessed they are rtunning more iso's this year

Melo had 35 or whatever iso's on sunday. what is the total minus game 4??

im sure its still bad.

got caught napping yesterday, wont happen again.


Knicks win on friday.

was planning on going to the Yankees game on fri, will now stay home (cough, bar) to watch the Knicks now.

whoa, havnt said that in 14 years.....

The Knicks had a chance to get rid of one of their zero's on offense, and pick up a shooting guard, forward. Instead they kept Shumpert and didn't get Jared Dudley who would help in the playoffs and future. Shumpert is just another Fields can play some defense but , has no ability to score. In the NBA you don't keep someone for defense unless, they are the best at what they do like Dennis Rodman, who got every loose ball and a lot of rebounds.

Shumpert has started shooting the corner 3 better and better each game. Trading a young up and coming defensive star for Jared Dudley is exactly the type of move Isiah would make...Dudley is solid, but that's all he will be. Shumpert has played 1.5 seasons and his defense is starting to come back after ACL surgery...his offense will come..comparing him to fields is laughable

Shump has probably been their second best player the last 2 games. (Which may not be saying much). But he makes a ton of plays on the defensive end
