All of the Knicks problems would be solved if they just played defense. They got players that can defend, they just don't for whatever reason.
So fukking sad and sick but true.

As much of a score first guard that Rose is and with Melo's flaws... We actually score more times than not.

The thing is... The old basketball proverb of "if you don't play defense, you will need work twice as hard during the game" is oh so true.

Your shot won't fall all of the time...But if you play Defense, atleast you won't have to constantly have to fight twice as hard from behind.

If they played defense or if they had a better coach,Horncek sucks and keeps getting a pass on his lack of intelligence or attention to detail.

I mean look at the final play against ATL after a timeout why is Noah who can't finish at the rim, can't catch or pass, or make a free throw on the fukkin floor.

They don't coach defense or even center pick n roll defense and it is obvious as everybody has there own system of how they play the screens which should be 101.

It is all on the coach he sucks, and he changes the starting lineup as if that is the issue but doesn't notice that second unit needs a bonafide scorer and that he should have switched KP and Melo long ago so that second unit can have a safety valve when the ball movement doesn't free up an open shot.

IT is the coach he stinks (c) Joe B on WFAN

I was about to say that too. Jeff Hornacek is a terrible coach. I hate the way he looks, his dumb expressions when the Knicks get scored on 3-4 times with no answer. I want to punch him in the head. He's not a good fit, he doesn't know how to utilize the talent on the roster, and he's not getting the most out of his players. Mike Woodson had them playing tough defense, he just had to deal with too many injuries. Jeff needs to dip. :camby:

All the problems would be solved?

You make it seem like this team should be a contender but the coach is holding it back :mjlol:

This franchises never ending quest to be the 8th seed every year is why you never get anywhere

Mike Woodson had a system that worked to his talent on offense everything worked off Melo iso and Felton's drive it worked well and on defense he used the switch method those were his systems what are the knicks defensive methods on pg/C pick n rolls. Noah hugs his man allowing for an open shot or drive to the basket and O'quinn sags into the paint allowing for an open jumpshot

Tf you mean? They definitely SHOULD be a contender in the east with this roster. :dahell: They've got a scoring slasher point guard, a 3 and D 2, Melo is Melo, and their front court with Porzingiz and Noah should be a fukking nightmare for teams with all that length. Jennings and O'Quinn is their spark off them bench. They've got a solid team that can literally beat anybody on a given night, if they weren't so lost on defense. On paper, the Knicks has a better team than the Raptors. But the Raptors play defense and the Knicks don't.

The Knicks are not even on the same planet as the Raptors
