The Knicks under Dantoni lost to many awful teams, including at home.

Indiana is the 4th best defensive team in the NBA and they were torched last night.

The Knicks were borderline mediocre under Dantoni. Mediocre teams dont have back to back games with 30-point leads.

It's obvious the Knicks were going nowhere with Dantoni.

This.

Is Woodson your long term replacement, or are they going to find another coach once this season is over?

The Knicks' plans...or should I say Dolan's plans...after the season are the following:

Plan A: Try to sign Phil Jackson if health permits.
Plan B: Try to sign Phil Jackson if health permits.
Plan C: Try to sign Phil Jackson if health permits.

Plan W: Keep Woodson if the team plays well the rest of the season, which I think is what will happen actually.

One thing to keep in mind here: Woodson, like Phil, is an ex-Knick & has already quoted the late Red Holzman, whom Jackson idolized & whom Woodson played for a little. I'm not so sure that Jackson will try to step on the toes of someone like Woodson to get the job.

I don't think Phil comes out of retirement for the Knicks, I think he is done. Although I would welcome him to NY.

So without Phil, I have no problem keeping Woodson here. I've been waiting for D'antoni to be fired and for Woodson to take over the job.

What a weird season it has been for us.

I'm told the Knicks beat the Sixers tonight. Thought they couldn't beat good teams.

I'd watch the game but the Rangers are on.

The Sixers are like the tallest midget in the circus.

Good teams are MIA, CHI, OKC, etc.

Don't think you need the etc. I think the 3 teams you named pretty much sum up who the good teams are. Spurs and Lakers I guess would be the next 2, but those initial 3 are the scary teams.

One of them will win the title.

The etc was meant for the arguable teams like the 2 you metioned.

Philly still living off the rep they were starting to get at the beginning of the year, that's the only reason they get any cred, and that was built against rubbish competition as well. In the top half of the teams in the league yes, a top 10 team? no.

That's a tough Linjury for the Knicks.

Clowe Me · 04-01-2012, 03:32 AM

Hope he heals quickly.

His 15 minutes look to be up.

Big Poppa Puck · 04-01-2012, 10:40 AM

It's Carmelo's fault Lin got hurt.

Nazem Bozak · 04-01-2012, 01:47 PM

its caramelos team there going to live and die with him now.

No team will EVER win an NBA Title centered around Carmelo.

As for Lin...it WAS a FLUKE. Due to the lockout shortned season, teams haven't had much time to practice and watch film to scout him.

Are all 6000+ posts of yours bashing everything related to New York?

Why would they take time to practice and scout him specifically if he weren't a good player?

Wouldn't you love to know, but as a resident of this wretched state I deserve the right.

That post wasnt about NY. It was about a self centered brat in Anthony and an overhyped 15 minute sensation in Lin, geeze, get a grip.

Maybe he was succeeding because nobody had the time to give him much of a look due to lack of prep time this season has? It doesn't necessarily mean he's good, he's a dime a dozen player really. Just catching people off guard. But with no time to prepare for now he has the advantage. Or did.
