Lillard has been really impressive so far.

It is nice to be complaining a bit about a game the Knicks won by 10 which improved their record to 5-0 :-)

Regarding Felton, also keep in mind that a lot of his jump shots came because his man went under the screen. You have to make them pay for that. He also had some nice layups. Also, he had to create the offense when it wasn’t flowing.

JC Knickfan: Yes Knicks won, but should Felton really taking 23 shots? He shooting whooping 0.481 TS% coming into this game and about get even lower.

It's not the ideal roadmap to victory, but tonight he did hit some big shots. So long as he knows this isn't the norm, it'll be fine.

Felton is who he is. His TS% will hover around 50% all year, what he needs to continue to do is keep his TO’s down, his asts per game at around 7 and not take many shots which before tonight he had been doing (averaging 12 FGA/g). Also keep up the solid D he has been playing for the most part.

Hey Lin so far this season has a TS% of .493!!

Yeah, JC, but that’s the deal with this team. Yes, Felton is not a good shooter and he shouldn’t shoot so much (and he really hasn’t in the other games – this is an outlier), but the Knick guard position was so bad last year that Felton is still a big upgrade. It is like back in 2010-11 when Felton was replacing Duhon. He just has to be decent and the team is improved a lot.

Knicks the first team ever to hold their first five opponents of the year all to 40 points or less in the second half.

By the way on a diff topic, Kobeast Bryant is averaging his highest FG%, highest 3pt % and highest FT% in his CAREER so far over seven games….and right behind Melo in PPG in the NBA at 2nd

Brew played well in the 1st half, but JR is playing out of his mind right now. Playing near-All-Star level and all around basketball...and consistency (*so far)...very impressed with JR

jon abbey: Brewer had some knee soreness, he said he’ll be fine for Thursday but that’s not cool. Spurs/Lakers just started on NBA-TV…
