solid loss lead by our dynamic 2 guard.

Garden fans paying 150 bucks a game must be thrilled.

Hey, he's an elite scorer, leave him alone.

Frank, Knox & Mitch all did some good things.
Also, Franc's 3's are unlikely; Mitch fouled a lot and missed all his FT's; Knox got beat on the boards and embarrassed on the Nets last inbounds play.

Franc had 3 quick assists, but one was a simple pass to Dotson for a 25 footer.  And Mitch made a great play converting Franc's off-target lob.  I don't recall the other one.
Franc did play good defense and slowed down Dimwilly.

At least the pups showed energy and fight. 
Knix gave up 94 in 3Q's before Fizz gave up on his starters.
I guess we just needed the Loss more.

The 4th Quarter made this easier to take.

I’ve never seen Frank that vocal before.

Knox had a couple of plays where he showed why it’s worth having patience as he goes through his toddler phase.

Somehow Robinson did not foul out. I find that pretty amazing considering how early he got his 5th and how much perimeter trapping he was doing.

This game was a mess, but combined with wins by the Hawks and Cavs it helped the tank.

Kanter is a great player. How come no one ever calls about Kanter?

Celts just played about as flawless a game as I can easily remember.

133-77.

Got off to a 17-0 run and rolled from there.

Celts D was choked the life out of the Bulls.

Bulls dogged it in 2nd half and lead peaked at 58, and ended as (tied) for largest road margin of victory in NBA history at 56.

Who the F is Daniel Theis?

He just laid down the only +50 plus minus I can ever remember seeing in my life.

He was a huge on both ends of the court.

Started in place of a hurting Horford.

Usually the 7th, 8th, 9th guy.

He’s got a really nice game. I always worry about Theis when we play the Celts.

I have to hand it to the Nyets, they come at you with a solid game plan. Dinnwidie is worth thinking about with free agent bucks unless we see a lot of internal improvement from someone.

That was probably Hoiberg's fault . . .

I didn't realize that was the 1st game of a Home-Home B2B for NYK.
CHA soon.

on Vonleh:

"I didn't realize how versatile he was," New York coach David Fizdale said. "And [general manager] Scott Perry just kept saying it to me. He said, 'Coach, when this kid was in high school, man, this kid could do everything.'"

What you call a post hype sleeper.

Went to Indiana as a Mcdonalds All American and came out way early for a reason.

Vonleh must've come out too early.
Because I recall seeing him on CHA and he looked completely clueless.
In POR he looked limited, but at least like he had played the game before.

Really, all these Knick reclamations make for pretty good storylines and make the guys easy to root for.

Was working last night, so I missed the game. 

Checked ESPN Scoreboard out on the road, and saw that the Nyets were eviscerating us. 

Last time I checked, another fourth quarter run. 

Woke up this morning to double check the box scores, as I was encouraged to see Herzonja had 5 boards in 20+ minutes, and hit 3-4 from trey...a positive sign, as he has a deadly jumper with range, the desultory, up-and-down start to his season notwithstanding.  Then I saw that he had a -14, highest amongst the Knicks.  Wassup wid dat? 

Also saw that Frank had the highest Knicks + in limited minutes.

PS: The Merciless One texted me, vis a vis my eternal optimism amidst this season's player development and slow tank.  He eviscerated me for my belief in the same old same old: "Win one lose three."  He then, in a moment of brotherly outreach, invited me to "Suck my dick."  I wondered if he had washed his testicles.  TO BE A KNICKS FAN IS TO SUFFER.
