In his last 7 games, Jamal Crawford has not played well. He is averaging 12.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game over those games. His shooting has been horrible as he’s only hit 36.6% from the floor in the last 7 games and only 18.5% (5 of 27) from three-point range. Some of this can be blamed on the fact that Quentin Richardson took his starting job, but Crawford has played well off the bench before.
Quentin Richardson has been fantastic lately for the Knicks. In his last 7 games, Richardson is averaging 18.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.6 steals per game. He also has been the best three-point shooter for the Knicks as he’s hit 25 of his last 55 (45.5%)! The Knicks are a much better team when Richardson is on the court, so they should start winning more now.
The Heat blasted the Knicks 40-12 in the first quarter and the Knicks could never make a game of it. The Knicks were outrebounded 45-33 and they allowed the Heat to hit 53.1% of their shots from the floor and those were big reasons for the beating the Knicks took. The unbelievable thing about this game is the fact that Dwyane Wade didn’t play for the Heat tonight. Eddy Curry led the Knicks with 26 points tonight. Jamal Crawford also had a decent game with 23 points and 9 assists.
