Grant and Williams struggling to find rhythm

[VirginiaKnickFan]

“I think our pace has slowed down a lot,’’ said Grant, 23, the Notre Dame product who hasn’t posted a field goal or assist in three straight games. “We’re not getting on the break as we were. I’m out there with some different guys, just trying to get back into a rhythm. The most important thing is pushing the pace.

“Early on, we did a lot more drags, rebound and run. I think it was more comfortable doing that.’’

“I didn’t actually [see it coming],’’ Williams said of the benching. “Sometimes you got to sacrifice for the team. But I want to get out there and play. That’s the reason I’m here. I don’t really know what happened [Wednesday].’’

One solution is for Fisher to unearth speedy second-year man Cleanthony Early and deactivate struggling shooting guard Sasha Vujacic or limited center Lou Amundson.

Fisher has yet to address the problem with Williams.

“It’s going down and down,’’ Williams said of his minutes. “We were on a little win streak. You don’t want to complain when you’re winning, man. It makes you look like a bad individual. I’ve always been a team guy. I’m happy we were winning .

“[Wednesday] I don’t play. I think I know I can help. It does get frustrating.’

Yeah man, I feel that’s the reason I’m here, bring that spark off the bench,’’ Williams said. “You can’t control that. It’s up to the coaching staff. At the same time, it does get frustrating. I know I can help. But we have more games.’’

While the starting five is thriving since Arron Afflalo’s return, the Knicks bench is in chaos. Fisher is in a scramble to either pare a 12-to-13-man rotation or change it after two straight Florida losses in which the bench combined to shoot 7 of 47.

Fisher dumb as fk

[munchies]

Ughhhh here we go

[Adelheid]

Just as we at RealGM here were thinking...

Fisher needs to be less allergic to transition/fast-pased basketball.

[stuporman]

This is what we fans on here have been saying about it... the players must be reading it here and stealing it.

And I actually wasted hours this week explaining to something like a dozen people who were incredulous when I said a coach will lose the players so easily doing the crap Fisher is doing.

I should respect my time more and not expend so much effort explaining what should be common sense.

[FreeSpiritNY]

As much as I want him to get fired its like saying Santa clause is real. It just won't happen

[Red Vines]

The media, fans, and players all seeing the same crap.

Remember when you said this! I knew it was coming, just didn't think it would happen this quick. Add these to the Melo and KOQ comments and wow. You were 100 % right Clyde. SMH

[bigtimeRC3]

Fisher is garbage.He's a phony as well.

The team needs to have a mutiny against Fish so Phil can do the right thing here.

[nykfan42]

Deactivating Sasha and bringin Early in would be a good move. I thought Early looked good in the pre-season/summer league, had a solid jumper and got to the rim. Enough with Sasha already, he sucks.

[Fury]

Phil should coach

[EchelonNYK]

Williams looked so good in preseason.

[ibraheim718]

Shocking development.

Cant recall KOQ in particular, but Melo directly said there is a time for a wide open lineup, and sometimes there isnt. You know when that difference is. Something similar to that.
