A Blown Knee & Flat Tires-Another NY Pothole Year: 17-18 Knicks Season Thread

[nyknick]

@Malta I am watching the 4th quarter replay of the Hornets/Bucks game right now on NBA TV.
I think we fukked up

You can learn how to shoot but you can't grow your arms breh

kanter plays well when he decides to not dribble more than two times.
kp is probably the best big man you could pair with his non rim defending ass.

If KP doesn't want be answering uncomfortable questions from the media, he needs to tell his bro to STFU. He better get used to that NY media scrutiny.

That post you quoted was one I posted in the wrong thread...meant to put that in the Lakers game thread.

You should add more context to those advanced stats. Their grooming Dennis to control the offense on the ball like we see most points do now. So it doesn't surprise me that things aren't as efficient as possible YET with him learning how to balance attacking/passing. Drawing from the last game he played, he actually opted to stop the offense to iso Pat Bev the best defender at his decision. Even though he scored on him, you should never purposely stop the offense to iso Pat Bev . You should probably keep the ball moving. Frank doing his thing but more times than not he's moving that ball as quick as possible rather than HAVING to break shyt down himself. He doesn't have the same room for error with less responsibility.

Defensively he's holding his own but Dirk is in that starting lineup with him... need I say more?

There's certainly an argument that Dennis has had the harder schedule so far also.

I like Dennis, but independent of Dirk his own defense has been terrible which is to be expected from a rookie. What's surprising is that even though Frank doesn't necessarily attack the defense yet, the pace of the Knicks increases when he's on the floor, he's constantly pushing the tempo. Their pace goes from 97.8 when he's off the floor to 104 when he's on it, he may not be an attacker in the halfcourt yet, but in transition he's been solid.

Ntilikina needs to get more aggressive and go to the rim at times, and his offense will obviously be a work in progress, but like Marlo said, he showing good signs...big paws on a puppy.

Yeah but isn't kanter only 25? I say see how he pans out.

Regardless we gotta make moves at the position it’s too crowded. Then we need to figure out if KP gonna be a Center or not.

Waiting on that post where you portray KP as Nino Brown and Willy as Gee Money on some “am I my bother’s keeper?” ish

Lmao!!

Breh, I was too lazy but I originally wanted to write that post with a narrative of....


fukk it...let me just do it!

Willy: P, Breh....I need you to help me out. They holding my minutes hostage, b. All I need to so sell these Kanter second chance points and offensive skillset to another team and I'll be able to get my minutes back...

Kris: You have Kanter minutes in there? Double doubles and everything?

Willy: Yes, shyt will be a great offensive compliment under the right situation.

Kris: And you have it already on the team right now? In that bag?

Willy: Yes, nikka. I need you to help me...

Lee with the Prigioni

Wasn’t he supposed to be getting a coaching job with us?

Trade value

 

[Malta]

Knicks need to shop Courtney Lee, might be able to get a pick for him from the Pelicans around the deadline, ideally you want their SG situation to be trash and them to be close to the playoffs.

KP tried to take that nikkas life
