Going up against the reigning Eastern Conference Champions, Melo put on an absolute clinic which doesn& #39;t get recognized because his teammates/organization failed him (sound familiar?)
Chauncey Billups didn& #39;t play due to an injury and Amar& #39;e Stoudemire left the game after just 17 minutes with back spasms and did not return
So, # 7 went to war against
- Kevin Garnett
- Paul Pierce
- Ray Allen
- Rajon Rondo
with
- Toney Douglas (5/16 FGs, 2 ASTs)
- Bill Walker (0/11 FGs)
- Ronny Turiaf (1/3 FGs, 3 REBs)
- Shawne Williams (1/3 FGs)
- Jared Jeffries (Jared Jeffries)

This dude Melo went on to single-handedly carry the team by leading the Knicks in points, threes, rebounds, assists and blocks
Ultimately, they were on the road against the Celtics with an opportunity to steal Game 2 thanks to Melo& #39;s efforts

Melo got double teamed on the final possession and passed it to Jared Jeffries who blew an opportunity to put the Knicks ahead with just seconds remaining
