Are you referring to that gonorrhea culture that's been growing on your junk for the past several years?

Welcome to the big leagues, rook.

and the 4 guard lineup was moronic

so lets put kanter back in

Tough with Trier and Timmy out there. I smell four more DNPs in his future.

Trier is seeing double-teams from teams all over the league now.

That escalated quickly.

Been saying ... Starks 2.0.

2 completely different players

He's terrible.

.

the young players then why is this starting 5 getting so much time. Whether you can win with Mudiay is debatable but Hardaway, Kanter and Hezonja are not and will never be. They don’t play defense or function in a team capacity on offense. 5 min for Knox and Robinson won’t cut it. I know Fiz said the focus isn’t on wins recently but his rotation says otherwise. The only reason I can justify these guys playing is for trade value.

because you cant just throw them out there and say go play, they are still the 2nd youngest team in the nba..

Knox was getting pushed around and so was robinson..

Playing them a ton of minutes sounds good in theory, but you cant let them just get bodied and say you are ok go play...

a “ton” of minutes and 5 for the half. Barely breaking a sweat is worthless time. They both need 15 t0 20 every night. Some nights they will suck and some they will show promise. These other guys are a complete waste of time.

the zone doesnt fucking work, and you play it against a good shooting 3 point team, it is moronic

they have been getting 15 to 20 a night

defensive unit I have ever seen. If they are trying to build a culture of defense first ( which was stated in the off season), this is NOT the way to do it.

In and see how the team plays with a good defensive player

I haven’t gotten to watch much and I’ve missed some box scores so you may know better than me. Also, do you think Mudiay is aggressive enough? It seems like he’s trying to run the offense, but he has 2 ball stoppers in Hardaway and Kanter. It ain’t gonna work.

Kanter and Mario play anymore. Kanter is a fantasy stud but he is so bad defensively.

lately it was more consistent until tonight..

i am biased when it comes to mudiay, i wanted him in the draft...

problem is you have 2 ball stoppers in the starting lineup with kanter and hardawsy

and see 5 young kids please

Historically he's been a Net killer, so let's wait til we're down 15.

In the off season, management said they wanted to get more athletic. They are starting two of the least athletic players I can remember (Kanter and Hezonja). You can’t play a running offense or play defense with those two so what the hell is the organization doing. Makes zero sense.

If only we had a shutdown guy who can guard three positions

Wow.

Followed by another beautiful move

And look at that? All with Timmy riding the pine.

Who should be playing together. They are the future

Frank tries to play hero and misses

he just doesnt know positioning yet, he relies to much on his athleticism rather than moving his feet

The extra pass to Knox for the open three was probably the play there.

rebounder?

I see intensity, effort on defense and cohesion on offense. I like Ntilikina at point. He needs a lot of work on his shot, but he knows what he’s doing.

with a ridiculous call.

every knick game he officiates he has a bad call

Is going to be something. We just have to be patient.

free thriows better. These teams just have very little talent.

and the defense gets better

it is not little talent, it is young talent, knicks have 2 19 year olds, a 20 year old, a 21 year old and 23 year old on the court

.

mudiay, frank, knox, vonleh, robinson would be a fun starting 5 for the rest of the year

if you miss Kanter and Timmy?

i will take a plate of crow on my timmy love earlier in the season

He's talented, but too many flaws.
