They aren't good enough

The Knicks have a very bad habit of sleep walking through the first half of games against teams they feel they should beat. They aren't good enough to mail in any games especially since they are barely over .500 and half-ass defense just ain't gonna cut it.

Hopefully this team will start to feel the sense of urgency necessary to win enough games to get a playoff seed six or higher. If they continue this foolishness they will be a bottom seed and promptly bounced from the playoffs in the first round for a second consecutive year.

The mindset of this team must be Crush, Kill and Destroy against every opponent every night. How they could allow the Nets to out hustle them on their own floor is disgusting.

This team needs to decide right now if they are going to continue to be the same old Knicks or the Treadstone Assassins.

Don't make me go HAM on you kid

Before Jeremy Lin restores peace to Syria and makes Zero Point energy a reality would someone mind asking him to cut the turnovers in half?

Any point guard that throws more turnovers than assists sucks at the position no matter how much the world loves him.

This has to stop immediately

Every minute that Toney Douglas is on the floor the opposing team is playing with six players. He has no business being paid to play professional basketball.

I can't understand why Jeremy Lin did not play in the second half when he was the only Knick guard penetrating, passing and not tossing up unwarranted shots.

This one is on Mike D'Amphoni. When he is shown the door he needs to take Toney Douglas with him.

I find it very hard to believe that the Knicks cannot find a serviceable point guard in Europe or the D League. This has to stop and immediate moves must be made. This team cannot continue to hang its hopes on some version of Baron Davis that decides to play when he is cleared to play.

Ray Allen's late threes wouldn't have meant anything if the Knicks had a setup man at the point at the start of the second half. The game would have been over by the end of the third quarter.
