To speak the truth. Not 2K fantasies. Every year some posters write Knick’s going to the finals. When they start losing, it’s the refs got it against the Knick’s. When they going through a losing streak it’s growing pains and the coach is bad. Then it’s well next year , we going to tank and get imaginary top draft pick and 2 top free agents. We also going to trade a garbage player for another teams pick or superstar because all of sudden Knick’s management will start to become savvy while other GM become idiot. Knick’s will never win shyt with Dolan.

We have a solid squad with some physically and mentally tough players. Can't see Morris, Randle or Taj crying and giving up.

Morris signed a one-year, $15M contract with the intent to prove his worth for a long-term agreement next offseason.

Should be an interesting season, but low-key.

All of the all-stars and superstars are out West.

The east is getting molly-whopped in the All-Star Game. :pachaha:

On the other hand, the West is going to cannibalize itself all year and especially in the playoffs.
You know what that means? Dallas gets they ass kicked all year end up in the lottery and we get another draft pick :mjgrin:

If we’re even half way decent, Randle could make the all star game. Did wonders for the Nets.

Lamb of God
DSJ/Payton/Frank
Barrett/Trier/Ellington
Knox/Bullock/fukk Saying That Canadian's Name
Morris/Randle/Portis
Mitch/Portis/Gibson

Decent. :obama:
The lack of fit will be maddening

If Frank spot up 3 has made the needed improvement

Frank
Ellington
R.J.
Morris
M. Rob

Frank will defend the toughest assignment. Ellington has high BBIQ and can at least do the right things on both ends even if his strength is just shooting. Frank lack of PG skills is not much of an issue with R.J. on the court. R.J. has the spacing needed now and a finisher in Robinson.

This gives R.J. the best chance to develop and is by far the best personnel pairing for the Knicks.


Payton is a backup to a T. DSJ is a terrible fit as a starter and an even worse fit for R.J. Randle finally can go to his real role with Morris on board which is backup 4 6th man used like Harrell. The Knicks with this squad built alittle bit like the Clippers but not as experienced or as well constructed but no trash trash players who are g leaguers.

Trades will have to be made. Trier or DSJ. Portis or Randle. But other than that, a smart coach can win with this personnel. Not sure if Fiz is that coach

It's hilarious how nikkas could hate on a "bad" team THIS much. Like, I highly doubt they in the Suns thread starting shyt. But motherfukkers can't help but to stay on our dikk even when we minding our business lol. If we sign anyone that ain't a superstar, even if it's a decent role player nikkas'll say we lost, if it's a washed up superstar nikkas'll say we're gonna get beat in the head and trade all our assets so they could laugh at us, if it's a legit superstar they expect us to get raped in the deal and treadmill. When we bite the bullet and patiently build the right way nikkas'll say we ain't making moves, we trash lol. I'm just convinced until nikkas is winning like 55 games a season nikkas will forever nutride.

It's a terrible team if the players people think will start actually start.

It kinda reminds me of the Hawks before the season started last year when Collins was hurt.

A lot of shyt fits. You got some talent but you gotta find what works.

For the Hawks, it took till the mid of December to figure shyt out.

Kevin a starter and a great fit with Trae when Baze and Prince weren't.
John is healthy and a great fit with Trae.
Dedmon figured out his role.
Just takes time.

The thing is, the goal shouldn't be to develop everyone even if that's what you doing. The goal is to identify who is the face of your organization. Find the best fits for him and build around it. If that player is R.J. Find the players who fit him best. Don't just go with who is the most talented because that shyt don't work.

When the Hawks started last season. Our guys were Trae. Then it was Prince then Collins, then Spellman, then Kevin with our best player being Bazemore and Dedmon was the center.

When it ended, Trae was the man but it was Collins, then Kevin and after that it was who fit those three. That's what the Knicks gotta do. Identify the nikkas who fit R.J. in my opinion.

You identify those nikkas then you build around them. If its Frank and Morris, you build around them with R.J. if its DSJ and Knox, same shyt
