Who needs 'Melo when you have Point Guard Ray Felton aka "Everybody Loves Raymond at MSG" who hist the Silver and Black of Texas with 25 Points leading All Scorers. FELTdawg also added 7 helpers and took 20 Shots more than any Knicks Player.

On a Night on the Road in the Logo when you need to bring your D especially in the 4ht Frame the Knicks did just that. These are not the Knicks that depend on outscoring you these are different Knicks. They play sound Fundamental D especially in Transition and Half Court as well as pound you on the Glass. In particular 'Melo Anthony has made a concerted Effort to get his On the Glass and that has helped the Knicks tremendously.

The Spurs played their Game and it went all the way to the 4th Frame where in most Cases and Instances you would have given the edge to the Spurs but not in 2012-13. The Game was 57-55 at the Break and the Knicks outscore the Spurs 49-43 in the Last Two Frames and end the game with a 32-24 Final Frame. Along with FELTdawg's 25 the Knicks get major contributions from #TeamAARP as J-Kidd goes for 14 and "A need 4 Sheed" adds 10 points. 'Melo gets 9 points but 12 off the Glass and the Landlord of MSG...Tyson gets a Double-Double with 13 and 11.

The Spurs place Six in Double Figures with 19 and 12 helpers from Point God TP9. Kahwi Leonard gets 16 and 9 boards with Dunc going for 14 and 14 off the Glass. Splitter, Manu and Captain Jack go for 13, 12, and 10 respectively. The Spurs played well but the Knicks just made a Few More Plays down the Stretch and got STOPS...yes and Pat Riley or Jeff Van Gundy is not on that Knicks Sideline. Spurs had a +8 Advantage on the Glass and the Knicks and Spurs combined for only 17 Turnovers between them with the Spurs responsible for Ten of those.

Spurs now move to 7-2 and the Knicks are 6-0 on the Season and the Knicks look as though they are trying to get that #2 Seed in the East and they seem to running on All Cylinders with STAT due back in Late December and 21 SHUMPstreet Late Spring 2K13.
