it seems as though KOQ is back out of the rotation for Seraphin again which I don't like.
Especially with 10 games remaining. I know we want to win them all but KS is not going to be on the team next year. Unless KOQ is dealt he will be.

And that's scary to think about lol. Obviously Jose is pretty ****ing awful on defense, but he is trying out there. That is more than I can say for AA a lot of the time. Jose shouldn't be playing the minutes he is. That's on the coach not him.
That being said Grant should be near, if not more, minutes than Jose for multiple reasons..
I know this is funny but Sasha really grew on mej4remi wrote:Capn'O wrote:
Jerian looked like he didn't know what to do all year. Tentative compared with what you saw from him in college. Like he was thinking. Maybe Rambis has broken things down better for him.
The best decision I think Rambis made was having Cleamons basically shadow Grant. When Grant's on the bench, Cleamons has to be next to him and they were pretty much handcuffed according the story (I think it was a pregame report). It could be that Grant just figured things out, but I think having an assistant personally giving lessons all damned day probably helped him a lot.

Ha you have no clue man. I actually played a D1 sport. Went through a lot of injuries and illnesses in 4 years. It is what it is. What I did has nothing to do with KP though so I don't see why that's relevant. You seem to have a real attachment to the dude. Me nor Breezey want KP to fail we've just pointed out his shortcomings but, apparently if you say a bad word about KP it gets you crucified around here. I've commented on melo's shortcomings too and everyone else's it's not a special hate for KP it's just being real. This board did the same thing with Shump, Landry, etc. It's time we be real. While you guys will get emotional if KP doesn't live up to GOAT expectations I'll be happy because I realize his floor is like Serge Ibaka and then I'll be the one defending him on here while everyone rags on him. I've seen it too many times...
his what?!
Floor. Not ceiling.

I know what floor is greenie...Ibaka is a different type of player- period...

A defensive, athletic dude with a decent jumper that has 3pt range? That sounds like KP right now.

Phil said he wanted to get KS some time out there to see if KS fits into the future in that interview a few weeks back so I wasn't surprised by it, but I agree that it sucks.

Chances are even if that bum stays we're going to lose, he'll get hurt, bitch like a little baby the whole time so everyone feels sorry for him and he will be watching the playoffs from his couch. I'll like it just fine.
The hate is real. Melo will retire a Knick.

Depends on the pieces we can surround him with in the offseason. One thing is for sure, Porzingis sure appreciates playing with Melo and credits him with making the transition into the NBA smoother for him by deflecting most of the negative attention away.
If Melo is traded next year and Kristaps is the tank commander for a 15 win team that won't sniffing the playoffs for the next 5 years, that could take a huge hit on his confidence and development.
People like you don;t care though, you just see LOTTO balls in your mouth and some pipe dream of building a super team through the lottery when statistics show otherwise.......
STFU.. And what statistics don't show is which teams have good scouting departments and which teams don't. That's how the Spurs with bottom of the first round draft picks and one middle of the first round draft pick have been able to compete for championships built around a core that has past it's prime. if that's the case he was never meant to be schit anyway.. with or without fat Melo.

no offense but i can tell you dont play ball...again, kp's jumper is "wet"- "cash money"- Ibaka doesnt have one- why do you think Melo gives him the respect that he does. KP's shot is elite today.

None taken when I know for a fact KP is not shooting at an elite level and I (nor you) don't know if he ever will. Ibaka has a jumper you must respect or he will burn you. He's not elite, but he's respectable.
