That shocked the hell out of me. The way the media slurps him, you would think he dropped 40+ a few times.

Cool isolation moves always gets the attention. Knox just dropped 31 with Mudiay at point guard and no other player to ease the pressure. Of all the shots he took I don’t believe any was forced. Kid is good.

Give it a few year and we'll start running the offense through this kid. He has an insane amount of tools at his disposal

Embiid is a crying pussy. He throws his elbows all over the place but then when somebody makes contact with him the tears flow. I can't wait until I no longer have to watch mudiay. That being said he is instant tank from the moment he steps on the court, he is the worst defensive guard in the league. He's complete inefficient trash on offense, he gets blocked and dribbles the ball off his foot every 2 minutes. Knox as the youngest player in the league is way ahead of ehere I thought he'd be even playing with chucker trash like Mudiay, Tammy and Kunter.

Volume scorer is one of the more bizarre terms thrown around these days. Like, I got an insult for guys that score a lot like that's not the **** point of the game.


Scoring without context is meaningless. Anyone can score a lot if they take enough shots. The key to scoring is the rate that the shots go in. The Knicks, as a a team, struggle immensely with efficiency. It's why they're bad.

In the context of tonight, Knox had a 63% TS% which is pretty **** efficient.

Refreshing to see how the ball moves around w Mud being the only chucker out there. Though, most of this game was out of reach so take Knox’s performance w a grain of salt.

Liked Frank’s aggression and as said as naseum, perfect P&R master w KP or whomever for a reason. Baby steps...

Looking good Frank! That last play was 4 pts b/c it took a layup away from Joel as well.

Just roll the ball out and let the kids cook. THJ Kanter Burke just hold the youngsters back

Knox needs to be featured number 1 option the rest of the season.

We’re still really bad even without them, but at least the L’s will come with the added benefit of letting the kids get all the opportunity.

Hopefully this will at least warrant giving some more of a leash for the kids to cook.

And the guy we got because we didn't tank hard enough - Knox- he's pretty good too.

Most people hated Melo for this reason...but love Knox and KP who are both doing their best to immitate him.

If the goal was to move towards more effective and efficient scoring then this is not the answer.

People will point to PG...which is the same issue as before.

Great tank loss.

Knox's development has been fun. Just the way he can score and get buckets in a variety of ways is crafty as hell. He is def the highlight of the season.

7 boards and 2 steals... Love the activeness as well.

Nice game from Frank.

Please cut down Mudiays minutes.

He’s actually 75/98 in DRPM. There are 23 point guards worse than him defensively including Frank Ntlikina at 89.
