"NYK will surprise the NBA"...I believe 'em too. 19-20 NYK Offseason Thread

Trier coming off the bench. I’m more worried about Dennis Smith Jr and RJ.
I'm not worried as much about RJ and DSJ. RJ has shown willingness to pass the ball and look for others more and more in each summer league game. And I highly doubt RJ's going to force it as much with better players on the floor (both teammates and opposition). DSJ also said his goal is to help RJ become ROY.
Don't know if he's been part of any team workouts but it looks like he's been in Vegas last few days.

I think getting Trier to pass more will be the toughest thing and if he becomes a black hole, he'll get traded in a package for a more lucrative offer.

By making Trier sec unit off the bench and primary scorer. He did last year
He just needs to get it through his thick head that he needs to pass. We know you’re a walking bucket but why don’t you pass it to your open teammate at the 3 point line?

I mean look at his face. He looks stingy. He looks like never shared shyt his entire life, let alone a ball. The name ISO Zo fits him well.
But that’s because RJ is dominating the ball and rendering Allen pretty useless on offense. Allen was playing spot up shooter and defender for a large majority of his minutes. Can DSJ do that if we give RJ the ball?

Honestly knowing his history..... there is some truth to this

So can Knox. Your best bet on offense is RJ and Randle playing a two man game with Mitch as a release valve when Randle draws too much attention in the paint and Kev and Frank on the wings looking to swing pass or catch and shoot.No but I think Frank and Dotson can

Could work if Trier passed more but Ellington would fit at Sg to.
I like Trier so I’m hoping it’s the lineup above
Off topic but the Celtics new training facility looks impressive. It's up there with the Nets and Lakers. Dolan needs to open up the checkbook and upgrade that dated shyt in Westchester because it's looking like it's stuck in the 90's.

Payton deserves mention. His catch and shoot numbers aren't anything special at all, but they do put Frank and DSJ in the dust. He also got his production on surprisingly low USG (I think it's worth digging a little further on that though) and had really nice chemistry with Randle. If Barrett is gonna start and get the ball in his hands frequently; Payton starts to look like a more interesting fit...though you know I like Frank since he's a much better defender and I'm really worried about Barrett/Knox/Randle regardless of who we bookend them with.
