<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Yes, the Knicks did show some heart by coming back from a 13-point deficit with only 2:36 left in the game, but where was that heart before that run? Where was it when Milwaukee was outscoring them 28-17 in the third quarter, or when they shot 64.7 percent in the first quarter? "The way we played the last four or five minutes, we've got to do that for 48 minutes," Williams said sternly. "You can't just do that at the end of the game or the middle of the game." Then, sounding like a junior high coach on the first day of practice, Williams made it clear what was expected of his charges. "You come out and you play as hard as you can, and when you can't play any more you put your hand up and I'll sub for you. But you can't give any other effort less than what we gave in the last four or five minutes of the game. "You've got to come out and be ready to play, every single minute that you're on the court." Perhaps the lethargy was because of the afternoon start, or the fact that neither team has a chance at the playoffs. Or maybe everyone just wanted to get off the court to watch the Yankees and Red Sox. Michael Redd scored 32 points for the Bucks, and Tim Thomas scored 23 while Stephon Marbury had 15 and Jamal Crawford had just 11 on 3-for-17 shooting. With the Bucks up 88-79 in the fourth, the Knicks gave up a three-quarter-length inbound pass from Toni Kukoc to Redd, and Jermaine Jackson grabbed him from behind and was called for the foul, which infuriated Williams. "You can't fall into lapses like that," the coach said. </div> Source
