In a stunning development, Mike D'Antoni finally got fed up enough with Robinson's antics and did not play him in last night's 118-104 loss to the Magic at Amway Arena. The Knicks coach did not rule out the possibility of this being a permanent move and not a one-night message.

It wasn't hard to predict that we'd get a clinic in the Mike D'Antoni offense at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night.

Yes, he used to coach the Phoenix Suns and won a lot of games with them. Yes, his Knicks team has generally offered a very poor impersonation of the Suns’ freewheeling, high-speed offense. No, D’Antoni insisted many times, the reunion no longer means much, 18 months after the bitter divorce.

Stoudemire was on the trading block, the Suns were amid a rough transition without Mike D'Antoni and Steve Nash had yet to be locked up for the long term. And the 6-foot-10 athletic power forward had doubts about whether the Suns cared more about saving money than winning.

By Michael Tiedemann If the Knicks were able to pull something like that off, someone should treat Donnie Walsh and Mike D’Antoni to a nice steak dinner.

It is certain that Mike D'Antoni will try to have them run and they have a new outlook. However, they are still stuck with some of the players and big contracts that Isiah brought in and so they are sure to struggle again this season in spite of a new GM and a new coach.

By David Friedman(noreply@blogger.com) Most people seem to expect Indiana to be terrible this year but the Pacers only missed the playoffs by one game. They sent Jermaine O'Neal to Toronto in exchange for T.J. Ford, a point guard who will be able to push the ball up the court and feed the team's many three point shooters. I think that the Pacers will surprise a lot of people but in the end they will probably once again fall just short of the playoffs. The New York Knicks will almost certainly improve now that Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni are running the show but there is no reason to believe that even in the Eastern Conference they can leap frog enough teams to make the playoffs.   [read the full post]
