    Knicks should win this still being angry over the Nuggets incident. I'm sure they will give something for the fans to root for after that poor display of composure Saturday.

    Knicks trailing by 14 in the first make a furious comeback and lead it by 2.

    If we can maintain this energy we should win this.

    David Lee is the man: 13/12 by halftime.

    Well that was ridiculous. Williams makes 2 HUGE shots and we manage to fall asleep and Marbury lays it up at the buzzer with only 3 seconds to work with. Pathetic...

    This was a magnificent game, gotta give props to Knicks for the way they played but not trying to sound biased or whine but there should of been at least .3 put back on the clock. The Refs didn't even look at the clock, ridiculous, even the Knicks announcers said there should be time left. Anyone still think Paul is better than Deron Williams?

    You cant shoot with .3 seconds the clock so what does it matter? Starbury is the man. Horrible transition defense by the jazz at the end.

    With this seasons Jazz, it's becoming clear to expect the unexpected. Well played by the Knicks though, down 14 at the end of the 1st and with players out they were up against a big challenge, but they simply just kept fighting.

    Derek Fisher might argue that.

    What a joke, just look at Okur as Marbury was driving towards the basket at the end. It looked as if Okur tried his best to get out of Marbury's way. I understand he didn't want to foul, but giving the driving player a clear path to the basket without any attempt to alter or contest the shot? [​IMG]

    Yeah I was wondering the same thing. He probably thought time was going to expire or something....

    But one thing is certain. Williams is clutch. So is Okur.

    "I was out of control," he said. "I tried to make him tough shot, but I felt like I was going to foul, so I kind of backed off." - Okur

    Still, wouldn't fouling and making Marbury earn it from the line be better than giving him an uncontested layup?

    Still, there's a chance it could happen. Very very unlikely, but possible. With Fisher's shot against the Spurs, he had to catch, turn and jump before the shot.

    There's a rule clearly in a book that you can only shoot with .4 seconds or more.

    God, Okur, sometimes your amazing...
    Then there are times, I just want to run you over...

    Utah had timeouts left, and you can still tip it, something Kirilenko is good at. I said there was at least .3 left, so there could of been more time too.
