Lin Shump Fields Jeffries Chandler... Good line-up.. Shump really needs to find his locations. We need his shot to go through. Novak should be sixth cause his corner three is on point, and with their defense(WAS) focused on lin and chandlers pick and rolls novak will be open 9 outta 10 times...
liked everything u said COACH, keep the team chemistry growing, and congratulations on the couple of them wins and hope u win tons and make us(the KNICKS FANS happy ;)
Why is there a lot of people saying trade Melo haven't you seen that theirs always about two to three players trying to cover him. now that we have someone beside Stat, Chandler and Don't forget Melo Name AKA LINTASTIC it will opened up the floor making every one cover there men... if you tell me we have seen Stat with no problem getting into the basket having over two players covering him same goes for chandler, but reason for Melo poor games is because he wants to take this team over his shoulder without him realizing that this team has more talent than what he thinks. Melo if you are not open pass the ball, if you see over 3 players covering you try to see who they left alone and pass it to them. once they see that their also banking shoots they will leave u alone and go back to plan b and cover there own men. Melo is a natural and a clutch player who wouldn't want him in his team. Is only a matter of time for this team to understand each other and once the do they will be Dangerous and Unstoppable. Reason i am putting my card down and all in trusting this team that is going to end up being dangerous & Unstoppable is because if you saw this team against the Celtics and Bulls to me it would have been easily won if they will have great judgement and have it in mind those game was without a point guard ( LINN ) if i need to specified. Knicks is a team that is acquiring understanding each other in every game that goes on. Once they end up to understand each and other, Make allot of ball movement and stop relying in the 3 pointer, with great judgment they going to end up being dangerous, but one thing is Knicks being a great team and they now ended up clicking with each other making them an ELITE solders in the battlefield. That's when you need a General someone that can pin point strategy and know the capability of each and every player limits. You cant go far as soldiers without having any type of entry or exit strategy. That's my friend where JEREMY LINN comes in. P.S. Should i say more
My point exactly. Melo is super talented and he's so valuable down the stretch in games. My issue, as you pointed out, he doesnt need to hold onto the ball for nearly the entire shot clock and take 26 shots a night with half of them in double teams. Pass the ball and allow the game to come to you. The team will be better for it. The emergence of LIn and with Melo and Stat sitting is living proof it can work if the superstars check their ego at the doors and play the team game the sport was invented to be.
Nice share cat!!! We were routing for Lin since he came to the team but coach only played him during blow out garbage time.. well I guess how you look at it too.. that could be perceived as his feel for the team and getting his feet wet... hut I still think coach D waited too long... Lin may have saved him a little bit more time in the Garden!
