New York-Phoenix(Played Game)
Before the game:
Coach YoG Said:
"I think this will be a very tough game for our team. My fist day as coach will bring me to Madison Square Garden to face off agianst the Suns. We could win it, cause we got a really good team. But I think were a little to small to stop Amare and the Matrix. Let's hope they get injured For the rest we gotta try and use alot of the 3 Point fire power Crawford and Q-Rich got. That's I think the key to a win for us.
Key Matchup:
Stephon Marbury Vs. Steve Nash

Vs.
This is gonna be fun to watch because we got one the one hand the reigning MVP and the best passer in the league, but on the other hand a point Guard who can do his thing and who can create space for himself

1st Quarter
The game started on a very bad note. With only 2 minutes played Q-Rich suffered a Arm Injury in a collision with Amare Stoudemire. He was brought to the hospital and the doctors said he could'nt return to play in this game. So with Allen Houston and Penny Hardaway ready to fit in on the Small Forward position we moved on. I could'nt use my tactic of moving the ball to Q-rich and Crawford for the 3's. So I tried it with Crawford and Houston a little but this did'nt work. With good interior defense of JJ and others of the suns Crawford and Houston combined a 2/15 shot from downtown. everytime I missed the Suns took adventage and used there loved run and Gun style to score on the fastbrake. resulting in a 34-22 score after the 1st period of time.
2nd Quarter
With being 12 points behind in the 1St I tried to do a more Run and Gun style offense. It worked out preety good with some good of the brake points by Nate Robinson and Stephon Marbury. we managed to come back a little. but we could'nt manage to get in front. after 2 quarters in play we were still behind by 9 but it was better than 12.
3th Quarter
Agian a run by Phoenix. I tried what I could but they just had more height than my team had. Every fast break of my team resulted in either a miss or Nate Robinson getting blocked by Amare stoudemire. They did everything good on offense and made a large gap. Somewhat every played of the NYK thought we would lose the game and to be honoust even I thought so.
4th Quarter
We tried to play somewhat entertaining basketball to keep the fans happy but there was nothing left to play for we did some alley-oops and some streetball style. WE LOST!! so what does this matter.
