Knicks-Sac PG

[Rotten Apple]

Why is this even a discussion he will never be on this team.

He is what he is a high volume shooting center a glorified rasheed wallace

Didn't you know? Every player in the NBA has a shot of being on the Knicks one day.....

Na, we are just used to drive up player value

46 current NBA players are either playing for us or have played for us.

Also like 12 coaches or something like.

I just made this comparison the other day. It was a finals game against Houston. It's a mental thing with Noah the same way. I'm not sure what precipitated it but he's completely psyched out with his offense.

It's pretty crazy but Noah once had 5 consecutive years where he consistently hit 74-75% from the line.

Then down to 60.3%...then to 48.9%...and he's now at 24%

Bum shoulder...

I don't think its the shoulder. More times than not FT shooting is a mental game. That ugly release doesn't help but if you step to the line assuming you will miss you probably will. I had that issue growing up where when I stepped to the line I couldn't hit a FT to save my life until I gained some confidence and started shooting 80%. I remember players saying that Shaq would shoot around 80% at practice but when he had to do it in a game he would lose confidence.

I don't care how talented Demarcus Cousins is. He'll always be a losing basketball player. I mean yeah he had 36 points but was 9-30 from the field. Sorry that is just embarrassing for a big man. He doesn't make anyone better. Keep on losing Boogie. Enjoy being a whack punk your whole career.

Shaq has/had strabism...

Anyway one thing is for sure... Thibs messed up with his body, while Hoiberg with his spirit!

- Sasha deserves his props, in the latest few stints on the floor; he's looked more like he did the last month of last season rather than the entire rest of his Knicks run. I'm still a Chasson Randle guy though.

On behalf of Sasha, I really can't appreciate him enough... Think about it - A guy who everyone in fanbase **** on yet he still gives us quality few minutes without being in rhythm and only getting couple of minutes every 3rd game.. he is always ready - knows how to move the ball, knows where and when to cut without the ball, unselfish, great shooter, ultimate glue guy and mentor to our young euros, most passionate Knicks fan on the bench, has no ego to complain about his minutes. And the best part - he basically doesn't take anything from our capspace as a vet min guy. He probably wouldn't be in any other NBA team but for what Knicks are now - the system and culture Phil is trying to create is the best possible option we could ask for.

One of the least appreciated but at the same time one of the best signings imho.

Yeah Cousins is a clown. He's very talented, but just something about him gives off a terrible vibe. I wouldn't want him anywhere near KP.

[KnicksFTW]

Lol so do we still run the Triangle? Honest question....

[Johnny Hoops]

- Melo playing very nice basketball right now
- KP losing his touch but helping out on boards and protecting the rim
- Lance (meh) -- he had a tangible role last year on our less-talented squad but the defense he brought last year has been non-existent
- Rose both great and meh at times
- Jennings --- love his constant ball pressure and finally knocking some perimeter shots down which makes him a handfull
- would like to see more Kuz but it's a long season
- KOQ playing big, aggressive and tough off bench --- that is what he should focus on and stay away from the flashy/fancy type stuff

In terms of Cousins --- keep this a-hole / j-ass far away from my team. What a complete turd this dude is -- he is the poster-boy for talented player that plays the wrong way. He is Melo on Melo's worst nights but Melo isn't an a-hole. I can only think that his teammates and anyone in that organization would love to move on from such a talented child.

Clyde called it mid-game "Cousins will end up with +30 and 15 boards but nothing to show for it".

No, we run Hornyball and iso

Leave Shaq's cockeye out of this lol

So if the Bucks, Bulls, and Hornets all lose today, we'll be the 4th seed in the East.

maybe a combination of both. because this is crazy. that shot was always unfathomable, but it used to go in. he also used to hit it from 15 a bit. now, that is 100% gone.

i watch him shoot now and don't see how he ever made a single NBA shot. that form and release is the most counterproductive thing i've ever seen. better off underhand granny style.

[Jeff Van Gully]

No, we run Hornyball and iso

they do it from the low post on occasion, but the offense is a lot freer. they find two-man games and cuts in different ways.

the pindown and UCLA flex can be just as predictable as the triangle sets. i think the key is that they just keep mixing it all up. that combined with overall comfort with each other that is growing... they'll be fine. this is a solid group. to be over .500 while "figuring it out" is a nice place to be at this point in the season.

In a limited capacity he offers good versatility off the bench against longer guards. It is funny how people forget he is 6'7 due to his style of play. I brought this up to my brother the other day and he would have sworn Sasha was only 6'2 lol.

These games are a lot of fun to watch. So many entertaining players on one team.
