We played well. I'm excited for this season. They should be happy about this game. Obv. You want the win. But going toe to toe with arguably the best team in the league. And only losing by one? Take some confidence from that.

Hopefully this lights a fire. And Porzingis continues his aggressiveness. Melo stays in his flow. And we understand that we can go in and beat anyone.

I'm just very proud we played hard. I was nervous in the third quarter, but in the end you hang in there and get ready for the next game. Our Porzingas is definetly the best player to come out this draft.

In brighter news, the Knicks coaching staff did draw up the best inbounds play out of a timeout this whole season. The quick hitter alley oop to Porzingis was beautiful. That one should definitely be saved for future usage.

Not even mad at this L. The Spurs didn't give them an inch and we still competed and had a chance to win it on the last shot. Melo made the right pass and it backs up everything we've heard about him trusting his teammates. Any other NY year besides this one and Melo takes a contested, long stepback jumper. Our squad did this on the road in San Antonio. They can compete with anyone when they play smart.

That's what I hope they take from this. The schedule should be easier for a while so they need to rack up wins to make a playoff push. After this road trip I am lifting my expectations from them being a .500 to them (if healthy) making a legit playoff push.

He's not out coaching pop twice in a row man

:yeshrug: 2 out of your 5 players on the court looking at you all confused while the clock is ticking. Cant be coaching all scary.

Had he called the time out, we'd probably would have won or would have been just as satisfied with the effort as we are now so it doesnt really matter i guess

They ain't calling that at the end of the game
Not even mad at that

I'm proud of the way we played though
If we play like that all the time we wOuld be in a much better position

I'm cool with pushing the ball after the miss but after we had nothing we shoulda called a timeout. Not cool with putting our faith is calderon to win games :francis:

But melo made the right pass under the circumstances
