JR Smith shines as Knicks use total team effort to pound Spurs
It's no longer just the best start to a season JR Smith has ever had. It's starting to turn into a special one for the current sixth man of the New York Knicks and it's a big reason why they are in first place in the Atlantic Division.
Smith was outstanding again tonight as he scored 20 points,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], his fifth consecutive game with 20+ points, to help the Knicks end the San Antonio Spurs seven game winning streak with a 100-83 victory on Thursday night.
It is the first time in ten years since New York has swept a season series from the Spurs. San Antonio,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which averaged 111.7 points on 53.4 percent shooting during its winning streak and rang up 117 points on Wednesday night against the Bucks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shot just 36 percent in its lowest-scoring game this season
"We are in a good place,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Smith. "We need to make sure we bring this kind of defensive intensity every night."
Smith added five rebounds,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], three assists and added a memorable slam dunk off a alley-oop pass from Pablo Prigioni that will certainly be talked about as one of the top plays in the NBA this season.
"I like him a lot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Prigioni. "It doesn't matter how you pass the ball,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he will catch and I don't know he will bang the ball because the pass was too low and he went up to catch it. He's amazing."
Before the season, Smith was not very keen on the idea of coming off the bench for the team. Woodson didn't care about Smith's feelings as he felt like the Knicks are a much better team when Smith is coming off the bench. It is hard to argue with Woodson as Smith as shined in that role and is the early leading candidate for the Sixth Man of the Year Award.
"That was the whole idea coming into this season/" said Woodson. "Putting him in a position as a guy coming off the bench, as a guy that can lead the league or score a lot points off the bench. We're putting him in the position to do that. I think he's starting to step up and be more patient about his play."
Carmelo Anthony scored half the points tonight than he did the other night leading the team with 23 points. In their loss to the Blazers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Anthony scored 45 of New York's 100 points for the game. It was different story tonight as it was a total team effort which meant that Anthony did not have to play an "MVP" like game.
"That's their scheme, to try to take me out of the game," Anthony said. kept his streak alive of playing good basketball,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Pablo came in and led our team from the point guard position. Everybody contributed in their own way."
Prigioni played well in 28 minutes of action as he had six points,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], three steals and a game high nine assists. After having committing nine turnovers in the first half, the Knicks turned the ball over three times in the second as Prigioni played the majority at the point guard spot over Jason Kidd. With Raymond Felton out of action for the next of month, Prigioni's minutes at the point will surely increase as New York hopes to keep Kidd's minutes down as the season goes on.
"With Raymond out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], everybody needs to do something extra,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Prigioni. " Me and Jason are the two point guards. I will try to give it my best till Ray comes back."
In addition to his amazing dunk, Smith also added a great block shot off a Gary Neal in the first quarter that seemed forgotten when the game was over. Despite having a wacky style of offense,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Smith is certainly one of the most underrated defenders in the league.
"He's not just committing to the offensive end," said Woodson. "He's trying to defend and he's rebounding,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he's sacrificing the ball when he has to. He's playing an all around good game
Amar'e Stoudemire had 10 points on 4-of-10 shooting in his second game of the season after knee surgery. He was better than his debut game and seemed to slowly get his offensive game back by the minute. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he clearly is still a ways to go as he still lacks the explosiveness in his offense as he had many of his shots blocked.
