Knicks == three pointer bonanza

Postby oboeguy on Tue Dec 09, 2003 10:43 am

I usually play with the Nets because I love to run and gun, get to the hoop for the big dunk, etc. However, my team is really the Knicks (I've gone to numerous Nets games in NJ, but when it was against the Knicks, I wore my Knicks gear :) ). So, I've also played a couple of games with the Knicks now.

Wow are they easy to use for shooting threes. A large chunk of my shots end-up being threes and I make a lot of them (whereas hitting a J with the Nets is, well, limited to when a guy is wide open). They are especially good for hitting a three in transition, because the PG, SG, and SF (Ward/Eisley, Houston, Van Horn) can all drop it in from beyond the arc.

I guess Charlie Ward, then, remains my "secret weapon", as he was last year, because of his great three-pointer rating. :D

Look at the Knicks roster and NONE of the current Knicks have shot over 40% from the 3 pt line in their careers. Houston is the closest with 39.9% (lol) but EA really screwed up there.

Nets are hard to play with since you are pretty limited on your offense.. Kenyon isn't such a great postup player.. Kidd don't shoot that well...
New York got some shooters ..

I don't know if you play super-star lvl or not.. but I find the nets quite tough to play with...

I usually play with any team with at least 1 good scorer with decent fg%..

I often lose with the Nets because they don't have a good scorer. Usually, I need to have somebody who can score in the post or drive the lane and use athleticism to score for me to be successful, as well as good long-range and mid-range shooting. The Nets have none of that. Last year, it was still possible to win through fast break offense, but this year, it is harder to win with only fast break points.

Yeah, I play with the Knicks online for that reason. With the Nets, I score half my points with J Kidd, because he's their best player, but it's not like he's very efficient at scoring. I do manage to draw a lot of fouls using him, though.

I saw this post and was like yeah Knicks and Charlie Ward....he just dropped 32 on me as he plays on the Magic in my dynasty. I held McGrady to 12 points on 4-13 shooting but Ward had 32 points 8-24 from the 3pt line.;.....this would be an NBA record of 3pt attempted I believe!

jr
2013 is the year?
Thanks to Vl@d, Leftos and all the other patchers for their hard work.
