Good defense by Westbrook against McGrady in the post on the switch. Nice to have a point guard who can switch onto a larger wing and defend him well. No need for a double + subsequent scrambling defense.

Nice shot by McGrady from the top of the key off the pick and roll. That should seal it for the Knicks.

So happy for Eddie. I miss him, but the Knicks will give him a chance to play a lot. He looks great tonight, even with a couple of bricks.

McGrady couldn't move on that long rebound along the baseline.

Does not look comfortable changing directions or making sharp movements. Poor agility + lateral movement.

McGrady needs a lot of help from the screener on those pick and rolls. The screener has initiated the play on several pick and rolls here in the fourth rather than the ball-handler directing his defender in the pick.

Has trouble far away from the hoop against aggressive pressure defenders. Better 15 feet and under in one-on-one play.

Otherwise, it looks like T-Mac needs a pick to get some separation from his defender.

Way to go Eddie House!

22 points in 33 minutes. 7-12 from the field, 4-4 from three + FT line.

No McGrady in overtime.

Durant's dribble in three point against David Lee was beautiful. The confidence. So smooth.

Great hustle by House to chase down that long rebound.

House looks re-energized by this trade to the Knicks.

House always payed with a lot of energy. He's a leader on that team now.  Nice to see him have a big game. I hope he doesn't play so well against us.

mike d'antoni is trying to lose this game. Knicks have no size on Defense. Eddie Money making big shots.

Holy *@#$% T-Mac with 26 points! Eddie House with 22. Both Shooting 58%ish percent, Eddie Shooting 4 from 7 from 3. Eddie's played 35 minutes, has 4 boards, and only 2 turnovers. Does Mr. House have a chip on his shoulder? Of course this is ONLY 1 game, still with T-Mac putting up consistent numbers, the Knicks would become decentish... Still they'd be in the bottom 1/2 of the league and couldn't make the playoffs (Probably) because they were so bad the 1st half of the season.

Any one else watching this game? Kinda miss Eddie know  ;D  Hopefully this is only temp..
