The ball was getting to him in different ways. Not strictly posting on one siad and ISOing him. There is a huge difference.
The Knicks are a hot team that's been rebuilding for several years and finally cashed in by signing Amare. Their record is no fluke. LMA had his hands full last night. It's a loss I expected, but I'm thinking the Blazers are going to wins some games coming up.
Yeah, I was pretty disappointed in how much guys have been standing around the last few games where LMA is starting to isolate in the post. One way or another Nate's offense slowly but surely seems to gravitate to one player holding the ball and everbody else standing about. I was really scratching my head at why Patty was getting so much run and Miller has been asked to sit more and more and it hit me that whatever Dre's strengths, in Nate's mind it all comes back to "you don't play the way we want you to." Patty is like a slightly quicker, less talented Steve Blake, but he can hit a three (sometimes) and when Nate has a "point guard" who can shoot a three, by god he's going to use him.
