Phil's Drunk Messin' With The Association Save Again: Knicks 2015-2016 Tryout / Off Season Thread

[23Barrettcity]

Besides Monroe, what stars did we pass up? Maybe stars want to see some semblance of competency and stability from the organization before they commit to signing to the Knicks? Maybe it's easier to build a foundation of role-players prior to landing the star? LeBron is perhaps the only player who can turn a franchise around with garbage surrounding him as teammates.

Talent does win, yes, but championship teams are only as strong as their weakest link, meaning proven role-players and a deep bench is necessary. I'm glad the Knicks aren't throwing money at players with name recognition who haven't won shyt. That method hasn't worked for the past 20 years, lets see what Phil can do before we judge.

If anything, I'm glad he got rid of that f*ckin BUM JR Smith, that in and of itself made this off-season worth it for me.

Jr left during the season

Jr left during the season

For all intents and purposes the "season" was over by December. My point still stands, letting that BUM go was the best move of the year.

Phil basically got us Marc gasol lite on a cheaper deal

Comparing stats

Lopez- 8.2ppg, 5.0rpg, 1.2bpg , 75%ftp , 53% fgp , 21.2 minutes per game

Gasol- 14.1ppg , 7.9rpg, 1.6bpg, 50% fgp, 75ftp, 33.7 minutes per game


And Lopez is younger... So we still won.

Are we that desperate?
Lopez isn't close to Marc
Even calling him gasol lite is a insult
I really don't think a lot of knick fans have actually seen him play
He's just okay

 

[#SOG_soldier]

we only paying him 13 and a half. did you see some of these other contracts. hell chandler parsons makes more than that


robin is a great defender and great rebounder, you sound like a bytch ass nikka

.....because he's better

 

[I.V.]

A lot of people running in here to post nonsense, and get facts wrong.


Must be july.

 

[Wargames]

.....because he's better

Didn't Parsons just have Microfracture surgery?

 

[#SOG_soldier]

.....because he's better

:jay74: are you fukking serious that overrated ass nikka is ASS. he can shoot and jump THATS it watch this nikka struggle without monta on the team

He put up the exact same numbers before playing with Monta

 

[#SOG_soldier]

He put up the exact same numbers before playing with Monta

yeah cuz he played with harden.


he is a glorified role player breh without a playmaker to set the table he will get exposed

 

[#SOG_soldier]

U gon learn

a good center costs. at he is great at anchoring a defense


him and LMA was a great duo. i hope kris fills out and maybe we can recreate the mix of skill and will that POR had

 

[Scottie Drippin]

yeah cuz he played with harden.


he is a glorified role player breh without a playmaker to set the table he will get exposed

He's going to put up the exact same 15-5
Robin Lopez signs for the Knicks and now he's better than Chandler Parsons.

Every year I'm always like "damn, I should post in the Knicks thread more often " but then I have to remember like 75% of the people who post in here are the NY Posts sports page target audience

Fast forward to December when Lopez is averaging like 9-7 and you calling him a bum and demanding he be traded, and Phil be fired for giving him a contract despite those numbers actually being exactly what he put up last year

Marc Gasol lite

exactly what i expect


i just dont think parson is that good. he weak on D and his handles are average



would MUCH rather have a center that can play great d, grab , rebounds, and hit FT. that alone is worth 13 mil to me
