Ugh

I feel like this is/was a game we should have won. The tight rotation really didn’t help at all, I don’t know what GK was thinking.

He made big shots in the 4th

then tried to shoot through a triple team at the end of OT(when he could have actually won it) and was outshined by Gallo in 2nd OT. Sorry but to have a clutch game your team needs to win, clutch for me=being big to help win. Otherwise he just made big shots to delay the same outcome.

Didn’t get the 7 man rotation by Karl though. It shows he wanted to win this one badly, but hope he didn’t aggravate any lingering injuries with our guys in the process. Big props to Al for his clutch shooting, Dre for that incredible 3, Gallo for scoring brilliance, Ty and Nene for gutting it out, and to Mozzie for giving us a great game. Am anxious to hear from Karl on his strategy with the tight rotation and for not getting Melo his 6th Foul.

why have D’Antoni coaching a largely front-court oriented iso-ball team? He excels with pick and rolls which require outstanding guard play. Yes, better than Baron Davis.

Steve Nash at 37

Has done an amazing job of outrunning his age.
But when it finally catches up to him, look out.
Come to think of it, John Stockton was good until he retired at 41?
You can’t play D on the young guys at 37, but Nash never was any good at Defense.

Place was packed 10 minutes before tip-off

And people kept showing up. They are scrambling to move pool tables and set up folding tables.

I didn’t do a head count, but it was a lot. And then you have to figure that there was a lot of posting in the game thread considering all the Stiffs otherwise occupied.

I don’t know what the occupancy compacity is for Jakes but it probably a good thing the fire Marshall didn’t swing by because it was standing room only. Great night. Have to have one at a home game and do something likes “melo’s yellows” used to do with sitting together and have stiffs shirts.

But I remember how the Nuggets were nothing in the early ’00s until he was drafted and the team’s been in the playoffs ever since.

Sure, I got my issues with Melo’s game, but I have nothing bad to say about him as a person. I just hope he knows that not everyone in Denver is all bitter. Sure, I didn’t like the last half season, but I remember seven good ones before than and one great one.

Epic. Heartstopping. Payback.

Beyond my wildest dreams. What a win for our Nuggets! We tried at some points to give it away, but the Knicks couldn’t take advantage. What a stupendous night for the former Knicks: Gallo with 37, Moz with a nice long run and good scoring, and MR. BUCKETS!

Melo looked like he could cry on several occasions, and I wouldn’t have blamed him. It was kind of a blast to see him heat up and make things tough on the Nuggets—and then to see it come to nothing.

While I’m at it here, the Nuggets’ worst enemy is their poor offensive execution. We see a lot of talk about how great defense sparks a team’s offense. But what we don’t see much is analysis of how poor offensive execution facilitates the other team’s offense. That was on display tonight way too much at critical times in the game.

Finally, the Knicks can’t go forward without firing D"Antoni. They have too much talent there to have things look so damn random. Stoudemire did not take a shot in the fourth quarter, and I don’t think he had an attempt in the first OT period. That team is so badly out of sync, and they deserve better than D’Antoni.

No. More. Stickyball.

Not only that

but Carmelo Anthony is a terrible, and I mean TERRIBLE fit for Mikes system, which preaches passing and finding the open man. That still doesn’t take away from his lack of preach for defense, because it doesn’t but his ability as an offensive guru can’t be taken away from him.

Honesty About Carmelo Anthony

He’s a great player with a big ego. I have no animosity towards Melo. He did us a huge favor by leaving and allowing us to become a deep balanced team, with speed, passing, and flow, which can take injuries and keep winning.
He might have made a big mistake, a la Stephen Marbury, who also had big dreams. The NY Media can eat you up piece by piece. If you choose a team, you better choose one that has an FO that knows how to win. The Knicks last put together a contender with names like Ewing, Starks, and Oakley, and that team couldn’t get over. They have a very road ahead. That’s for sure.

Good point

But the current FO has done very little.

Didn't Mark Wark join the Knicks FO?

In some sort of role??

There was a lot of clutch in that game

but how friggin clutch was Nene making those free throws? 0-4 to start his free throwing sucking and then, all of a sudden the grace of the Flying Spaghetti Monster blessed him two swishy swish free throws.

Unbelievable.

yeah, me neither

I was telling Chuk that he should at least make the first one so that the Nuggets would at least have a chance to win with a rebound / put-back.

Glad it didn’t come to that.

We saw tonight why Brewer is not a night in night out option

he just can’t dribble well enough to play either wing position for extended minutes unless the Nuggets run absolutely no halfcourt. So I’d gladly give Wilson those minutes.

Man when I said..
Calm down guys

the first half suckage was just for dramatic flair for their new ESPN documentary, that is all.. we will come back in dramatic fashion.

When we were down at half-time, I didn’t mean double overtime with Melo buzzer beaters, Andre Miller shooting crazy 3’s and Nene free throws deciding the game.

Gallo got a nice ovation at the start

but not big enough in my opinion, the crowd was extremely alive as always, and everytime denver scored the air was really let out of the building. it was also weird for me cuz it was the first time I had been to the garden since the trade and it was odd rooting for the opposing team. Also at one point near the end of the 2nd OT when it was obvious the game was over the knicks fans sitting behind the baselines started chanting lets go nuggets. It was amazing

Great time at Stiffs Night Out!

Sat in the corner on the right side of the big screen, had a great time seeing familiar faces and meeting and watching with fellow Thornton area boys Brandon and Kevin, we want to start a watch group up north, so anyone up in Thornton, Northglenn, Broomfield, Westy, etc. hit us up. Time to get a new projector though Andy, hopefully tonights proceeds will help that fund ;) Shout out to Russcot to who we bonded with towards the end. We definitely need name tags.

Nuggets did a lot of rest though

I think Gallo, Lawson, even Nene should sit out the Kings game… I think we can afford to lose that one, we need to have all these guys rested up after that road trip.

i would think they have enough time to rest, but may need to limit their minutes and hope Afflalo and Rudy are healthier to pick up the slack. If Afllalo was in tonight, I doubt Knicks would have been close in this game as he could’ve slowed down everyone not named Melo, Amare, or Chandler.

STIFF LIST (as of 4/26 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. METTA WORLD PEACE

Metta resorted back to Ron Ron last Sunday by clubbing James Hardenwith an "inadvertent celebratory elbow", landing him a 7-game suspension. Apparently, changing his name didn't prevent NBA commissioner David Stern from overlooking Metta's past behavior problems.

2. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS

The 'Cats are on the verge of securing the worst winning percentage in NBA history. Given that the guy who runs the team - Michael Jordan - had previously drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison, should this really be a shock?

3. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
The team that was supposedly built to overcome the lockout-shortened season managed to lose 7 of its last 14 games, ceding the Western Conference's 1-seed to the Spurs in the process. Their reward might be a first round matchup with defending champion Dallas.

4. BILLY HUNTER AND DEREK FISHER
With report after report coming out about NBPA union head Hunter's shady, nepotistic dealings and questions arising about Fisher's own role in dealing with NBA owners behind Hunter's back during the lockout, this off-the-court scandal could prove to be more exciting than the playoffs themselves!

5. STEVE NASH AND THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Suns are on this list for squandering the last few great seasons from Nash. Nash is on this list for his stupidly stubborn loyalty to a franchise as awful as the Suns.
