Highly off topic. But you think the Knicks had any chance of trading for him? They would have had to offer 2018 9th pick, 2019 1st and 2021 unprotected 1st. I know hindsight is 2020 but man I can’t believe this guy went 3rd and Dallas was able to trade for him.

This team is unwatchable and terrible.
i doubt it, dallas was not dropping that far..
i am interested to see how he is playing in january, last year he faded badly

You’re right the guys wanted Trae. But I just wonder if there was a scenario the Knicks could’ve have grabbed him. He’s an incredible player- close to top 5 NBA if not there.
Knicks might not win many, but defense would give them a chance - a chance to score in transition in addition to denying the opposition uncontested threes. Even D'Antoni could coach better defense than this. I can't quite figure out what Fizdale teaches these guys when they practice.

fizdale said his defense is based on protecting the paint first, i kid you not

Consequently two players are in the paint and one three point shooter is all by himself.
I dont think it can compete but the team should absolutelt be better than this, there is talent on the roster..
I agree with that. Fizdale was hired essentially bc they thought he was bros with KD and Kyrie and they would come play for him. He’s a disaster of a coach for the current roster

he is a players coach he is never going to get more out of a roster..
And hiring him to attract free agents is one of the most moronic things this organization as done, no player is going somewhere because of the coach
I was bashing MDA every game when he was here, and everyone since has been exponentially worse.
At this point, I’d rather Mills be shown the door before Fiz. Perry I don’t really care either way. This is a mess only someone like Jerry West and Ujiri can get us out of.
Mills has been & will continue to be the problem Â
until shown the door. His failures are legendary but the most recent,that has affected everything going forward,was his signing of Hardaway before Perry or Fiz was on board.Everything going forward was affected by that signing & w/o it,the need to clear cap space wouldn't have been needed. He is the problem!

Yep unlike the past where no matter who we brought in we were in perpetual cap hell to clean up so it didn't matter, we actually have roster flexibility cap wise so a great basketball mind could clean up this mess pretty quickly.
I liked the defensive effort, but his complete lack of imagination on offense was horrendous. He always felt like half a complete basketball coach to me.

because he built his system around ewing, that was the style back then..
Even now it is all iso, it is just with wings and guards now and teams spread the floor
Yeah thread title was misleading, I thought the same
pick and roll working all game with robinson, why not run it every single time at jokic?
This team is unwatchable and terrible.
Dolan has apparently stepped back after the carmelo interference was such a nightmare now we have to get Mills out the door.
This team is unwatchable and terrible.
i doubt it, dallas was not dropping that far..

This roster is awful.
This roster is awful.
i wanted randle but man has he dissapointed...
Knicks had 70 million and they still couldnt even become mediocre..
they are worse than laat year
ITs so simple. Randle needed to benched and the starting lineup should have been frank/dot/rj/morris/mitch or taj.
The fact he never even tried this shows how incompetent he is.
Presto.
Frank/smith
barrett/trier
knox/iggy
Morris
mitch/gibson
fizdale said his defense is based on protecting the paint first, i kid you not
Double bummer.

Knicks 34 of 83 (41.0%) 3pt attempts 9 of 34 (26.5%)
Little defense and lousy shooting. Is it coaching? Players? Both? I say, play harder defense and you won't see stats like these.

Trade anyone you can for picks

He’d be like Holzman when compared to Fizdale. Fizdale is that bad.
Make it happen!!
