I sort of delineate from Mills to Perry.
I'm not giving any special credit to Phil. He screwed up several things.
I look at Mills as being in charge for a few months and he f*cked it totally, with Baker's deal, and of course, THJr.
Perry comes in and has to clean up. He's not perfect, but I'd say he's been more than solid.
Obviously, I wish there was better syncing of vision between him and the coach regarding tanking during the Jefe year, there it is.
Tank harder, play young guys sooner after KP goes down. It's not all roses. But especially starting this offseason, very solid. 1 year deals, trading KP for DSJr and cap space and two picks. Adding G-League players who are ok. I can see an actual plan. I guess quibble over the Noah stretch but at least it's understandable after the fact.
I understand your argument. I don't really agree, but it's not without merit. However, at this point, I don't really care enough to get into detail. The rotations have been almost as bad this year, what was the thinking about Lee?, we pulled out hair out at the 1-year players having to be given playing time that should have gone to longer term contractees just so they could showcase themselves for contracts on other teams - so that we can keep in with agents or similar bull, the Beetiay???... etc, etc. I could go on, and on. But, :shrug:
Well, yeah, some of that is coaching though. Not sure how much the coach and the FO sync up on things. I mean, they do - it's one of the reasons Fizzle was picked. But to that degree? Not sure.
Yes. Agreed coaching is an important part of this. Obviously the relationship between the coach and the FO is going to vary from team to team. But, in the situation the Knicks are in they have to have a very close relationship, because it isn't the case of the FO saying: "here are these great players, now win some games with them", but rather having very specific needs about how the players are used. So I judge them as a triumvirate. Now, again, some things are more in the coaches hands (drawing up plays in TOs, running practice) and some in the FO (most of the weight in the choice of players, salaries) but overall, for this past two years iteration of the Knicks, things need to be very highly coordinated, imo.
