I actually think dantoni has been very good the last two games except when it comes to the last 3 minutes of a game. He just seems lost at points.

oh man, you hit the nail on the head with this pic. jeffries is completely open , gets the ball and hesitates. STRAIGHT UP TO THE HOOP SON! he could have won the game for them. instead, a huge loss.Originally Posted by Al3xis
I love what Shawne has brought to this team but he isn't changing that final possession. He would have been in the same spot to set the screen for Melo and then roll...and He has the same chance of finishing over KG as Jared...none.
Does it honestly matter the choices of Anthony Carter or Roger Mason, Shelden Williams or Jared Jeffries, Shawne Williams or Jeffries, Bill Walker or Shawne Williams? I mean honestly, 50% of those names are lucky to be employed.
D'Antoni's execution has been flawed, don't get the knock on his personnel choices right now...because, frankly..those choices stink and it's damned if you, damned if you don't. Everyone wanted Jared out, but what about when he makes the go-ahead layup 15 seconds earlier? heck, the guy actually did make 5 baskets last night. I don't disagree that you preferred Shawne in Dub, but we both know if Jared gets yanked and Shawne gets blocked or stripped there are going to be people screaming at him for pulling the guy that just got us the lead.
There is one person on the roster who can finish that pass from Melo (which absolutely was the right play)..and he had back spasms.
I want a defensive center this off-season, but make damn sure he also is a guy who can finish. this platoon of centers blows so many damn passes/layups/putbacks .
seems like it. game 1 we had like 10 seconds left with no TO's left cause d'antoni wasted a TO earlier
First game he had to waste a TO when Billups got hurt, yesterday he used his last timeout for the last defensive stand which did not work.
The last play D'Antoni drew up on offense was exactly what we needed to do, good call there it just did not work out.
Hopefully things bounce our way the next two games.
Are you serious? Yo you Knick fans really are dilusional. You don't agree that your coach literally just says "PLAY FAST, PLAY FAST", and that it doesn't work anymore now that you have 2 of the slowest guys at their position starting in Melo and Billups? When Toney Douglas pushes the ball up the court you don't even see Melo or Billups on the screen anymore most the time. He seriously said the reason why he didn't foul Delonte last night with 4 seconds left down 1 point in a playoff game against the Celtics was because he couldn't get to him. I've never seen anything like that in my entire life of playing basketball. You don't agree that Melo needs to get to the rack more? Go check the shot chart, in that first game that Amare and Billups WERE playing he was 5-18 shooting with only 5 of those 18 shots being layups, and he only made one of them. Dude isn't the best outside shooter, yet 4 of his 7 shots in the second half of the first game were 3 pointers. This is not discrediting the fact that Jared Jeffries, Roger Mason, Sheldon Williams, Anthony Carter and Bill Walker should probably not even have a job in the NBA, nor the fact that Toney Douglas got a dump taken on him by Rondo (see the post up where Douglas extends his arms out, has he never been taught how to defend the post in his entire life?!).Originally Posted by ShadyKay NT

amare and chauncey out. melo had to go nuts for us to win. just look who he was on the court with.
dantoni has some terrible plays out of timeouts. doc and the celtics are surgeons
Oh dantoni definitely has some horrendous "plays", if that's what you wanna call them, I never said he didn't. That dude literally has no basketball strategies, he just moves his hands, clenches his teeth and says play fast, play fast. The dude is just about ******ed. And yeah, his teammates that he had out there were trash besides Douglas, but he would have done the same damn thing even if he was on the floor with Billups and Amare. That's just the way he plays and it's not good basketball. It breathes zero confidence into his teammates the way he puts himself above them. You guys can keep being dilusional all you want, but you can't tell me you have more fun watching this team than the one earlier in the season with Gallo, Chandler and Fields when he actually fit in with the team and style of play. They straight up sold their soul in that trade.
Talking a bunch of nonsense.
