Wow! What a game between the Knicks and Nets. Carmelo Anthony put on a show along side JR Smith and Jason Kidd. As for the Nets Blatche and Williams led the way in a game that came down to the wire. The Knicks got of to a slow start as they fell behind by 17 points. The Knicks couldn't have gotten off to a slower start, but their great 3 point shooting not only kept them in the game it gave the the dramatic come from behind win.
Jason Kidd did not play against the Nets the first time these two teams played, and tonight he proved why he is one of the more important players on the Knicks team. Kidd made 6 three pointers including the game winner with 23 seconds to go in the game. Another key for the Knicks comeback was their defensive rotations tightened up, and force the Nets to take difficult shots.
Next time these two teams play it will be on December 19th on ESPN. If the first two games show us anything is that these games are much watch games, and can we please get these teams to play against each other in the playoffs!
