Apparently in today's NBA, you can stick your rear out and just blatantly move around to block a player...until the ref decides to call one at the time of their choosing.

There would be more consistency if they just let guys call their own fouls.
Yup, I saw that too. I'm gonna lose my shit. TWICE I've seen a rocket player actually follow a knick on their screen. Not just lean into it or stick out their rear (which they've done all game) but move their feet and follow the player to screen. And then you have that two handed shove. Holy hell.
I was coming on here to say the same thing. He's the Knicks version of Odell. I just pray he keeps developing. If so he's going to be really good in 3 or 4 years. Like All NBA good. His shot is a thing of beauty, good defender & rebounder. Great length & athleticism/coordination for a guy his size. He also seems to have great basketball IQ. I would not be surprised to see people say he is a top 3-5 player in the entire NBA once he fully develops.
of Zingis' basketball IQ and ability to learn quickly in the league is that if you remember early in the year, he had quick fouls and had to sit in the 4th a alot. Well in his last six games he's had:
3, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1 and zero at the half today.
DUde is going to be one of the best. Let's be honest

I never really thought he had a problem with fouling. Many of the fouls in his early games were ticky tack stuff or just nonexistent altogether. That just couldn't keep up. He's always been a pretty smart player. The refs willingness to stop screwing KP is what's allowed him to play more.
with KP but I can't fault any fans for getting excited over his potential. I don't know if anyone can honestly say that they thought he would be this good so early on.
For a guy who most said would take a few years to develop. Once he stops thinking and just let's it fly he's going to shoot a good %. Got a good mid range game, can shoot the 3, turn arounds, bank shots, hook shots etc etc. I am only 26 so I never really saw Ewing in his prime. KP is the most exciting Knicks player I think I've ever seen.

I'm loving KP, so much potential but he has a long way to go to reach ewings level, lets hope he gets there!
I agree. With Seraphin at center, there's no interior d or rebounding.

Fucking NBA officiating at its finest. Again.
