Apparently the NBA admitted that should have been a 5s call vs the Sixers, right b4 Harris' 3
Also apparently Love getting a little demonstrative on the court while his O wouldn't move the ball...you know, play basketball the right way...is "drama" and gets him fined by his team? Are these guys THAT sensitive nowadays? WTF do you expect a leader to do when they aren't playing well? NOT say anything? Maybe there was a better time or moment, but in game arm flailing for a justifiable reason no less (and he was right)...that's a fine?
And a lot of times it is on the player and if he has the work ethic to become that player..
This is very true and doesn’t get discussed enough.
can we send frank with him?
Sometimes players just are not good enough, he is not good enough..
Knox- Works hard, has the tools, but just cant put it together..
Mitch- ceiling to me is tyson chandler, if he learns positioning and how to anchor a defense..
Now if he was traded to miami he would all of sudden be shooting 40% from 3..
Stop trying to develop busts, you drafted role players and until you get stars on the team those draft picks will continue to look like dogshit..
and not just for the knicks, for all teams dradting projects doesnt work
Problem is knicks have to trade some of these guys to get some sort of asset back..
you also have to trade 1 of morris or randle
Understood, but I think he's a stud. Great in the post, great feel for the game, can shoot, plus athlete.
and not just for the knicks, for all teams dradting projects doesnt work
Why is every younger player a project? Killian Hayes is averaging 12.8, 6.2 assists, 39% from 3, 46% from the field, 91% from the line as an 18 year old playing in a professional league. Wiseman at 18 was averaging 20 and 11.

i am not saying there is or isnt projects in thisbyears draft, i have not looked at it that closely..
So basically they are judging morris on wins rather than his career year..
Yup.
With the ratings down,and a big market team being run this poorly,could we see some action?

That's the NBA cult of youth problem. That's how an immensely talented and accomplished player like Malcolm Brogdon somehow lasts until the second round.
I'd be very happy with Obi Toppin.
I also don't love the idea of moving RJ to the 3 just yet.
but why risk alienating Hield?
frank and knox came into the game
i have been hard on him, but man would that be a huge plus if he could be a consistent 3 and d..
and coach rewarding him with minutes
1 of the few stars in todays game that was developed and a late bloomer
Have to trade 1 of morris or randle, i prefer to keep randle, but can see why people want to keep morris..
Trade portis for whatever you can get..
Trade ellington for peanuts..
trade smith for a 2nd round pick.
trade frank for a 2nd round pick or peanuts..
keep bullock, keep gibson but off the bench..
Keep Knox for now
