My Posse's On Broadway: Official NY Knicks 2016-2017 Season Thread

Porzingis needs Ball.

I swear if the Knicks win another damn game. Shut everyone down!

On the 6-8 range tip, Fox has really shown me something with recent play...I'm coming around to dude especially since I think his jumper actually shows signs it can improve to reliable. Still wishing for a top 3 pick though.

yeah...his mechanics are smooth.
not a herky jerky ugly motion on his jay
he looks like a left handed russell...in college
college russy was a different animal....russ is his favorite player so it makes sense.

im not quite held up on ball....
kristaps in half court right now...is him being lethal in the pick and pop/roll....cause of his range and mobility....and ball doesnt run pick and roll all that much...
then again we're forcing this stupid ass triangle.....

You have escaped the Sunken Place.

I'm becoming more and more impressed with Ball... The niigga feeds everybody on some

and doesn't force the action... KP and Willy would get fed well with him. And I think he could actually attract some free agents, even despite the dysfunction of the front office. Cats would love to play with him setting them up.

I'm gonna be watching that UCLA/Kentucky matchup like

So brehs if our pick lands between 4-6 who would we go for/be best for us?

Assuming the top 3 picks are Fultz, Ball and Jackson, that leaves Tatum (who most likely goes 4), Fox and Smith.

Between those 3, you probably have to go with Fox and pray he learns how to shoot. Tatum is good but redundant on a team that will still have Melo on it, and Smith doesn't get as much love as Fox because he's not as tall/long so you worry about his defense.

They could always trade down and take a chance on Ntilikina, he has the height/length that Phil loves and can morph between the 1 & 2.

I actually think Ball would thrive in the triangle, a continuity offense like that where it's basically all about movement and b-ball IQ is right up his alley. He would be the initiator in that offense like Odom/Pippen/Kobe have been, Phil loves using big PGs who can play off the ball, and Lonzo has shown he doesn't need the ball in his hands a long time to make plays.

arguably his biggest strength is also in transition...and the way the roster is constructed...with melo still thinking he's a center piece...theres not gonna be very many people running up and down unfortunately.
he's good at catch and shoot though...which would be nice in the triangle.
but the knicks are somewhere in between running hornaceks offense and some morphed garbage triangle .... that confusion can stunt a young players growth....shoutout to kp
