The Knicks were outrebounded 51-35 last night and it really hurt them in the end.  Amare Stoudemire led the way for the Knicks last night with 30 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocked shots.  Wilson Chandler had another big game for the Knicks last night with 29 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocked shots.  Shawne Williams was electric off the bench in this game with 15 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 blocked shot.  Raymond Felton (14 points on 6 for 22 shooting from the floor) and Danilo Gallinari (10 points) didn’t play their best last night.  The Knicks are now 18-14 on the year.

The Knicks were outrebounded 50-32 tonight and it killed them on the scoreboard.  Amare Stoudemire led the way for the Knicks tonight with 30 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 2 blocked shots.  Wilson Chandler (21 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist) and Raymond Felton (15 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists) also had solid games for the Knicks.  Danilo Gallinari (13 points) and Toney Douglas (11 points) also pitched in.  The Knicks are now 18-13 on the year.

24-year old small forward Shawne Williams didn’t play last season due to off the court issues.  This was likely Williams’ last shot in the NBA and he’s been taking advantage of it so far.  Williams has played in 13 games (0 starts) for the Knicks so far this year and he is averaging 13.4 minutes, 5.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game.  He is shooting 57.8% from the floor and he has nailed 15 of 22 (68.2%) shots from three point range so far which is amazing.  Here’s to hoping that Williams says on the right path with the Knicks so that he can live up to his potential.

22-year old small forward Danilo Gallinari is starting to heat up with his shooting stroke.  He has played in 11 games so far in December and he is averaging 36.9 minutes, 15.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.  Gallinari is shooting 44.2% from the floor and 39.7% from three point range which is a nice improvement over the first two months of the year.  Gallinari has now played in 30 games (all starts) for the Knicks so far this year and he is averaging 34.6 minutes, 15.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game.  The Knicks need Gallinari to keep shooting well as he helps the offense spread the floor when he’s got his stroke going.

The Knicks shot 53.2% from the floor yesterday and they outscored the Bulls 18-12 in the 4th quarter to surge to victory.  Amare Stoudemire led the way for the Knicks in this game with 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 6 blocked shots!  Raymond Felton was outstanding in running the offense with 20 points, 1 rebound, 12 assists and 5 steals.  Wilson Chandler stuffed the stat sheet with 15 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocked shots.  Danilo Gallinari (15 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals) and Landry Fields (14 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 blocked shot also pitched in for the Knicks in this game.  The Knicks are now 18-12 on the year.

The Knicks were high powered offensively last night and that was the biggest reason for the win.  Amare Stoudemire led the way for the Knicks in this game with 23 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocked shots.  Wilson Chandler was also very effective with 21 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 blocked shot.  Landry Fields filled up the stat sheet with 14 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 blocked shot.  Danilo Gallinari (13 points) and Raymond Felton (12 points) also had decent games for the Knicks last night.  The Knicks are now 17-12 on the year.

The Knicks didn’t have a first round pick last June but they still did well in the NBA Draft.  That is because 22-year old shooting guard Landry Fields has been excellent so far this year.  Fields has played in 28 games (all starts) for the Knicks so far this year and he is averaging 31.9 minutes, 10.3 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals per game.  Fields is also shooting 51.4% from the floor which is downright outstanding for a guard in the NBA.  The Knicks better think twice about including Fields in a deal for Carmelo Anthony.  24-year old Timofey Mozgov has been playing overseas after the Knicks drafted him before last June.  He has played in 23 games (9 starts) for the Knicks so far this year and he is averaging 10.8 minutes, 2.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game.  Mozgov is only shooting 36.5% from the floor and 65% from the free throw line so far this year and that will need to improve if he wants to start getting more minutes.  24-year old shooting guard Andy Rautins has only played in 2 games (0 starts) for the Knicks so far this year and he has scored 3 points and he has 1 assist.

The Cavaliers outrebounded the Knicks 56-47 and they looked like they wanted the game more!  Amare Stoudemire only shot 8 of 19 from the floor and he turned the ball over 8 times in this game.  He still led the way for the Knicks with 23 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 steals and 4 blocked shots.  Raymond Felton had another outstanding game running the offense as he had 23 points, 7 rebounds, 11 assists and 2 steals.  Wilson Chandler only shot 5 of 14 from the floor as he finished up with 13 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 blocked shot.  Shawne Williams pitched in with 12 points, 7 rebounds and 1 blocked shot in 21 minutes off the bench.  The Knicks are now 16-12 on the season.

The Knicks only shot 39.3% from the floor while the Heat shot 54.9% and that is the main reasons for the home blowout loss tonight.  Danilo Gallinari led the way for the Knicks in this game with 25 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 blocked shot.  Amare Stoudemire had another solid game with 24 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocked shots.  Wilson Chandler was also effective tonight with 17 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.  The Knicks are now 16-11 on the year.
