:yesthis:


had fun. the renovation looks great. chicken sandwich was pretty good, but for 15 dollars it better be :melosass:


crowd would have lost their shyt if kp got either dunk to go down.


you dont feel comfortable with this team even when up by 14



edit: i also never saw so many Europeans in my life. Pretty much everyone was either English, German, or Russian. Some cute ones too

That's some of the most refreshing coaching decision making all season. It really showed with how effective the screens were not just for Grant but everybody.

at least fisher realized kp and lopez both play better when it's only one of them on the floor. He only realized that in spurts though :unsatisfied:

been saying this about Grant for a minute, glad to see the coaching staff adjust.

If Dennis Schroder is available the Knicks need to make a hard push for him, he's definitely a quality starter in this league.

Do knicks have draft picks for this draft?

Do knicks have draft picks for this draft?

No but as a consolation this is the last first rounder that the Knicks owe to another team (this one was dealt in the trade for Bargnani)

You know what I liked most about these last couple games... the defensive ball pressure, the way they're playing the pick and roll, chasing shooters off the 3pt line, challenging shots, and most of all the defensive rotations. Even in the Bulls game the defensive rotations and P&R defense looked crisp. RoLo and KP looking like legit rim protectors.

A sound defensive philosophy and good execution can take this team from average to good to great.

And I would love to see a trade for Schrodoer.

NY's offense was much better in December than in November (45% vs. 41% fg and 99 ppg vs. 93 ppg), but the defense was much worse (42% vs. 44.6% opp fg and 97 opp ppg vs. 100 opp ppg). There's no doubt in my mind that it's because O'Quinn and D-will got more minutes (11 mpg each vs. 16 and 15 mpg). Here's the baffling part: their record was much better (7-8 vs. 6-9). So, I don't know whether to be encouraged that their offense and record improved over that span, or to be discouraged that their defense has plummeted so deeply over that span. Are y'all encouraged or discouraged by this and why?
