WOW D'Antoni is a horrible coach.

[Clutch]

It's not just we won them. It's the way we won them.

We started both games strong and effort was there for the all 48 minutes.
You couldn't have seen that with D'Antoni as our coach.
Also our defense was better than ever.

[Draz]

With MDA gone, I turned Christian.

[ballashotcalla]

I know.

Mike Woodson is undefeated as a coach. That is unbelievable. Give him the coach of the year.

[iDunk]

Yeah but when the Knicks lose two games badly they get ripped on. Try to get some balance in, don't just hate on the team all the time.

[stephanieg]

Dead coach bounce.

[strifed169]

The defense they played tonight looked ELITE, I mean the Pacers could not even get shots off in most possessions in the first half, pretty amazing

Like he said, some players weren't buying into his playbook. Who you blame for that varies from person to person.

When D'antoni had the team on winning streaks you weren't starting threads to show off your ball gargling ability (which is excellent btw, were you in a sorority?). Where's the balance?

The truth is Melo was intentionally dogging it and sabotaging D'antoni's schemes to get him canned. It's obvious now.

BTW, he only scored 12 points tonight. I guess D'antoni was really holding him back.

To me, that's the most worrisome aspect of this new "streak". Carmelo is playing defense and hustling out his @ss, but he's scored less than 20 in the two games.

Seriously, how long can we expect this to continue? At time point, he's going to want to get way more touches and points.

And, since he eventually has problems with all authority figures, how long will it be before he's clashing behind the scenes with Woodson?

Some bitches don't play as hard as they should because they want their coaches out. When they do that, they start playing like they should.

I play professional basketball in argentina and let me tell you, some players are just mother****ers.

[StroShow4]

Teams that fire their coach ALWAYS go on a little win streak. I'm telling you, it NEVER fails. The brief burst of energy and enthusiasm will wear off and the Knicks will suck again.

[Whoah10115]

And Knick fans wonder why our owners are so trigger-happy.



D'Antoni had to go and maybe Woodson is a good choice for this team. Whatever. Doesn't change the fact that people are just complaining to complain.

[knickswin]

mike is not a horrible coach, but he lost the team, and it became a strained relationship. i have supported him, but sometimes around the loss to the spurs it became evident this is not the team for him. he wants to play his system, and he's not good at handling rotations. that's bad for our team because melo don't fit the system (and neither does amar'e if he's not playing center with a "stretch" four or two small forwards) and one of our biggest strengths is our depth.

his system is great when it clicks, but he is a little too much of a slave to it. sticking amar'e and melo on the wings was never a good idea. give him a team with a good pick and roll point guard and an athletic big man with shooters/hustle players and you will see great things.

Again. The problem is Carmelo. Had he played with a team conscious (work hard on D, share the ball, etc.), the team would easily be just as good with D'antonio as proof by the Lin win streak.

This is without a shadow of doubt proof Carmelo is a cancer and needs to be a non-factor for the Knicks to be legit.
