Terrible shot selection there, Marcus.

Yes. What in a world makes him trying to shoot from this position??! And in 2nd second of possesion. Inexplicable!

I'm starting not to like him. Not from today.
even trying for a 2 for 1 possessions, there is no way in hell he makes that long shot. he basically just threw the ball away. i can see what he was trying, but it was an awful decision by smart to shoot that one.  :P

but, the celtics have handled the knicks pretty well, so if they continue to do so it will be an easy win....i hope.  ;D

It was a 2 for 1.... Dumb, rushed shot, but it was far from inexplicable.

I think players push way too hard for the 2 for 1 nowadays. 1 good shot is better than 2 bad shots in my opinion.

Ok. If that was 2 for 1 shot, it can be explained, but then it was the worst 2 for 1 try I ever saw. So ugly, that I couldn't notice it.  :o It looked like me trying to be IT4.  :laugh:

Smart is struggling to learn from his mistakes..."I just will not give in" just may be his undoing.

Marcus just let your scoring come from your ability to facilitate, while you get into the paint. It's frustrating he's just so stubborn.

On the other hand, this should be a very gettable win from a decimated Knick team...fire the Zen Master.

Would anyone trade the 2017 Brooklyn pick for Porzingis?

No, he is just another euro stick that does not move the needle without help.

Rose is just a terrible analyst. His entire analysis can be boiled down to (1) continuously ride Lebron, and (2) ride the hot team at the moment and act like you've been a fan of them the whole time.

There are a lot of good analysts that are former players and/or coaches, like Doug Collins, Chris Webber, Brent Barry, etc. But Rose is not one of them. Reggie Miller is similarly unlikable and terrible.

You got to at least mention Cbs for coach of the year.

Probably, mostly due to his fit and our incredible need for a franchise-level big. We'd be legit contenders and probably the favorites in the East. I really like his fit here with this current team, and he's still very young to be a franchise big for us.

It seems defensive guru Kurt Rambis has done wonders for the Knicks.

If It4 got his 16th technical on the last game of the season; would he be suspended for the playoff game or the 1st game of the 2017-2018 season?
