The Knicks Thread....

[mp3]

Sure Sasha isn't great but he is very active off the ball and has defenders chasing all around the court because he doesn't need much time to get hot even if he hasn't being this year he still could catch fire.

I wasn't saying that Affalo shouldn't of played all those minutes just more that Sasha helped us get the big road win in Toronto and i thought we were being given "careful" with AA's injury

[Stress Fracture]

Meh, he's just there because of the triangle.

[Jeffx]

Really getting annoyed with Fisher's late-game rotations - Lou f-n Amundson and Thomas over O'Quinn and Williams????

[NovU]

Kinda surprised how little playing time O'quinn gets. Porzingis is understandable as he's actually good and deserves the PT but Amundson is in the rotation eating up O'quinn's time. Perhaps this is the small ball trend as Amundson is little lighter on feet?

[mp3]

Yeah the rotation is very strange, players who looked great in preseason like Kyle and Derrick Williams are glued to the bench most nights while Lance has being playing 20 mins a night lately.


Watching last night's game and Lopez only played 14 minutes lance got 20 lou played 10.

O'Quinn played 8 and Williams only 5??

There seems to be no method to the madness and we only just managed to get by the very struggling Pelicans too.

[NovU]

Man o man. We should start considering Progingzis ROTY candidate.

All Hail Kristaps

[mp3]

I think he is going to give KAT and Okafor a run for there money with the ROY award especially if the knicks make the playoffs this year.

All Hail Kristaps

+1
Re: NOR game
Fisher said he played Lopez less because of the matchup with Brow. Only caught some clips of this game though

[Jeffx]

Kristaps "Don't Call Me Shawn Bradley" Porzingis

[mp3]

Sooo how is your mood on the knicks now? Gotta be upbeat right?

I love the effort Seraphin put in the last couple of games.

Oka was the very early favorite out the gate, KAT will be solid all season, but Kristaps will have highs and lows that will allow him to be in the conversation

Ask me that again after 20 more games. But I'm pleased with their effort, getting two tough road wins in OKC and just now in Houston.

Porzingis had a monster night - 24 points, 14 boards and SEVEN blocks - damn.

Guess I owe Big Chief Triangle an apology.

[mp3]

Lol ditto!

KP looks like ROY right now if he keeps this up

[Kevin]

Kirst-UPS is humiliating the Knicks fans that booed him.

[mp3]

The knicks fans who show up at the draft are fake as.... They boo everyone and boo whoever the knicks draft regardless.

Knicks fans at the draft would probably boo if we had drafted Jordan!

Yet you said this months ago.

Knicks like there share of busts too, he traded for Bargs we just signed Derrick Williams and we drafted Kristaps 

[mp3]

I did, I might as well book my draft tickets now lol

But I stand by my statement that knicks fans at the draft will boo anyone the knicks draft regardless.

I was in the Mudiay came and had Winslow 2nd

[stereoxide]

Well to be fair many people think Mudiay will be the better pick because Kristaps wasn't well hyped before the draft. Also drafting a lanky big that high seems like a bad idea considering how Bargnani's career went and to a little extent Yi.

I was one of those that booed, because of 30 years of lousy Knicks draft history. Us die-hard fans had visions of Frederic Weis and Shawn Bradley. I felt Big Chief Triangle was trying to show everyone how smart he was instead of going with the safe pick.

[mp3]

I honestly think the knicks fans would boo the 60th pick.

Yeah. I was one of those who were high on Mudiay and not Porzingus but...

Just how awful has Mudiay's shooting been? He's on pace to be the first qualifying player since 1960 to shoot worse than 34 percent from the field while taking at least 13 attempts per game.

Awful. For the season his ORtg is 81.



Also didn't one of our forum guy who's a fellow countryman of Porzingus claimed he's a bust as he's been watching him closely? I kinda bought that but this Porzingus is looking very nice. He could be shooting little better tho.

[Kevin]

Don't sleep on Mudiay yet. That kid has so much potential like Porzingis.

[NovU]

Oh no I'm not giving up on him already. He's got great feel for a 19 yo kid. Right now though he's just not making shots anywhere. Likely he'll learn to finish better and reduce turnover as he matures. But I know for sure he ain't got Lillard type of outside shooting touch and his shooting mechanism needs an adjustment.

[air gordon]

Mudiay = more athletic Tyreke evans

Porzingis = Detlef Schrempf reborn but taller?
