The Sunshine Boys at point guard won't get the Knicks far in the Playoffs

The Knicks decided to not only not show up against Cleveland they thought they could simply stand outside and shoot their way to victory.

There was zero penetration from Mike Bibby, who started again for an ailing Baron Davis and it was the main contributor to the Knicks not getting easy baskets and drawing fouls therefore losing tonight against the lowly Cavaliers.

This team isn't nearly good enough to mail in a game nor have they earned the right to do it.

Cleveland was more aggressive and energetic tonight and took it straight to the Knicks.

The Cavs played with more confidence and put up any shot they wanted and whupped the Knicks for the tenth time in a row at home.

Now the Knicks have no chance of catching Orlando and taking the sixth seed in the playoffs.

You cannot tell me that there was no point guard in the D league, Europe or a veteran free agent that the Knicks gm, whatever his name is, couldn't have acquired to help this team after Jeremy Lin went down.

Did he really think that the sunshine boys, Davis and Bibby, were capable of playing the point at a high level? He needs to be fired for that alone.

These fuckers simply refuse to box out

The Knicks lost this game for the same reason why they will be quickly kicked from the playoffs. These fuckers simply refuse to box out and those easy points were the difference between winning and losing.

Everyone of the Knicks seem hypnotized on both ends of the floor when a shot goes up instead of putting their bodies between the man they are defending or who the are being defended by. Once they have a body on their man each player should then turn to the rim to see where the ball is coming off.

But these guys are so poor fundamentally I don't think if anyone told them this that they'd be able to remember to do it in the heat of the battle.

If I was the coach everyone who gave up a rebound that resulted into an easy put back for the Heat would be gauntlet running before hitting the showers. But that's just me.

Mike Woodson just doesn't get it

The Knicks were actually playing the Bulls very closely and had an eight point lead when Mike Woodson did the inexcusable. He put Toney Douglas into the game for Baron Davis which killed the teams flow and gave the Bulls second unit the confidence to not only come back but to take the lead.

Even though the Bulls lead was only ten points because the teams were so evenly matched tonight a ten point lead was almost like twenty and insurmountable with the continued poor three point shooting.

Toney Douglas has no business being on the floor for this team. He is not an NBA point guard player and he's never going to be. He is a liability for this team when he is on the floor.

I don't know if Douglas has no shot because of his shoulder injuries but it does seem like he is afraid of penetrating and drawing contact which means that he is completely useless. Shumpert should move over to the point when Davis goes out and Fields needs to slide down to the two.

With Lin going out and Douglas relegated to the second unit you would think that he'd take the bull by the horns and run the D'Antoni style offense with high energy, lots of cutting to the basket and ball rotation but no. Douglas is more concerned with finding his jump shot than seizing the opportunity presented to him.

I know this for damn sure, Mike Woodson had better learn right now that Douglas doesn't deserve a minute at point other than garbage time. we can't afford to lose anymore games because of Woodson's attempt to turn Douglas into the point guard he will never be.
