Bledsoe is killing the Knicks defense

From the East, the Knicks is the team that really concerns me, and if there's one series I'll really miss Rondo, it'll be against the Knicks. For some reason, against the Knicks Rondo always seemed to do a good job pushing the ball and attacking them in transition.

We were ok without him that game

The Bulls scare me more.

Until I see Carmelo win a series with NY (which he hasn't), I'll never be scared of him or that Knick team.  You live by the three, you die by the three.

Us vs. Knicks will be an interesting ECSF game probably... I like how we both have strong backcourts and the front-courts can be even if Bass plays well against Stoudemire.. Stoudemire vs. Bass really is the X-Factor.

I've yet to see a team that relies on 3 pt shooting win the NBA title.

They had much more than 3 pt shooting. Dirk in the post was huge, Terry off mid range jumpers was huge, Kidd's ball handling and Marion's transition game were huge...

Not at all. Their coaching staff is all in on the 3pt strategy. They should be starting Stoudamire with Melo and Chandler and pounding the ball inside. Then run off defensive stops. Use the 3pt shooters to open up the paint for Amare and Melo.

Same problem with DiAntoni and the lakers. How could you not start Pau Gasol with Howard and just pound the ball inside????

Jamal Crawford's ball-handling and shot-creation is a beautiful sight at times.

It's a shame he doesn't make better decisions. So gifted.

Melo is a monster anywhere on the court
Stoudemire is OK with back-to-basket or face-up

Chandler is unstoppable near the hoop

Felton/Shump can penetrate well enough

Kidd/Novak and anyone can shoot threes

And JR Smith can shoot ill-advised jumpers from anywhere!

I think the Knicks should be team Doc should be trying to get in the first round. Avoid Miami and Chicago. I think New York is the best matchup for Boston in that first round.

I've always thought that if Crawford's BBIQ and defense were better, he'd be a perennial All Star.
