    nonono,
    woodson was terrible. you saw what happened when kidd and sheed left?

    he was terrible with the hawks too. he is the creator of iso-joe.
    he never looked like he had a plan on offense.
    he always matched up to the opponent.
    his switching defense would drive me crazy. (and it led to the tyson chandler trade)

    terrible rotations:
    jr smith had carte blanche to do whatever he saw fit. shumpert was in his doghouse for two seasons. i bet he calls him "rook" to this day.
    melo led the league in minutes.
    jason kidd had to play so much, he ended his career.
    cole aldrich never played.
    beno udrih got called out and woodson couldnt find minutes for him over RAYMOND FUKKIN FELTON!
    do you think shane larkin would play under woodson? hell no.

    idk what's shit about 30 assists on 37 field goals?
    call it what you want but the offense has much better spacing now.

    if they play triangle, they go to the weak side where there's an iso close to the basket, a la jordan or kobe, not like an iso top of the key.

    So far I like how he utilizes his time outs. I like how he's not running melo into the ground either like Woodson was.. Melo use to be super clutch but these past two seasons he would suck in the 4th.. Melo playing less minutes helps him have his legs in the 4th when we really need him.. Allowing him to bust shits in lebrons eye

    Based off what? Did you watch any of the games? What I see when I watch is Melo passing the ball without stopping the rock. Same with JR. Shane Larkin getting feeds from Amar'e on back cuts. Guys like Jason Smith putting in wide open midrange jumpers.

    It's been looking great. I couldn't give less of a **** if it's a "real Triangle Offense" or not, it's been great.

    Maybe shit is harsh for a rookie coach, so I'll change that to below average.
    The Knicks are winning because they pass the ball this year and this is the accomplishment of Phil
    You're either unbelievably stupid, or haven't been watching.

    Let's hope it's the latter for your own benefit.

    Very pleased with Fish... but I'm not suprised. Dude's a born leader.

    There will be respect back in the Garden soon if this keeps up.

    Didn't doubt him when they hired him, I just didn't think they would adapt this quickly to the Triangle. He's done a commendable job so far managing the team, they can sneak into the playoffs barring issues.

    takes a long time to learn... and fisher probably knows it as well as anyone.

    guys are quickly ditching it now at the first sign of ambiguity as to what to do on offense.... this habit will decline as time goes on.

    fishers a winner... he doesn't know how to lose...

    It takes a while to master the triangle, give it time.

    Underrated. Great coach. Don't know what's bigger, his coaching talent or his titties.
