It's just not a great fit as long as Melo and Noah are around. With KP and Melo; the Knicks are better off with a playmaker PG than a score first guy. With Noah on the floor, the offense will run better with a floor spacer handling the rock over a slasher. That's no disrespect to Rose; he looks healthy and he's capable of scoring pretty well with the extra FGA's. But for this team, having 3 players that are most effective taking 15+ FGA's really isn't the best route. I give him props though in that he's trying to be more of a playmaker, but you can tell that he's more comfortable attacking and there's nothing wrong with that except that there's less opportunity for him to do that ish right now with KP's emergence.
Who says Noah has to play.... He don't even really play now

Stevie Wonder can see that Rose isn't a good basketball player

Dumb as rocks

Thats why the Bulls lost game 5 of the 2011 ECF choking that 11pt lead under a minute
They didn't blow that lead because of Rose. LeBron and Wade were hitting miracle 3s. Rose wasn't even guarding them.

Realistically, he's making 18 million for the next 4 years. They're gonna try to figure out any way to make him work as long as he's suiting up (to be fair, that's not a guarantee). Rose is an expiring, we're stuck with Noah :mjcry:; I hate it had to be him. Other thing is George Hill is just a monster so far this season; 20 ppg over 50% from the field and 45% from three on 5 attempts. He doesn't put up gaudy assists, but he moves the ball well and he's always been one of the top defensive PG's in the game. It's not a knock on any PG to wonder if we could take Hill away from the Mormons.

Keep rose. Melo is washed and he and the Knicks have to accept that. He needs to play more like pierce and let his ego drop

What a dolt. Gave up a wide open three to KAT instead of letting Rubio take a three, too. Hate this guy :camby:
