sessions and frank both should be pretty good in the pnr. jack looks cooked, unfortunately.

it also is ineffective when you run it too much, when there isn't other action around it, and when the roll/pop man doesn't execute.

sure. i'm saying if bNo was suggesting we tank for rose, rose exceeded expectation. so he would have been appropriate to tank for. wouldn't call believing in rose back then an L.

i actually didn't expect him to accomplish all that he did. that memphis team maddened me to watch because of the lack of fundamentals to go with all their athletic talent. missed free throws costing a national title... i figured rose might continue on a path to underachieve. he became the league MVP.

I have no idea what is being referenced. I just like to get my Rose digs in where I can.

If people are knocking bNo for wanting to tank for Rose, that is strange, since he was one of the most hyped #1 picks ever, and the entire world was basically picking him first. It's not like bNo went on some weird limb :lol:

last time i made a game thread was like 9 years ago and i had like a 8-10 game losing streak.

that was when i was all about tanking for rose.

It's good luck to And1 the OP of the game thread. Also, bNo loves And1s.

Pretty much, this whole preseason is a waste because Frank kNee-tilikina has lost so much valuable time to work on his game against NBA players.

Is Jarred Jack going to play 20+ minutes this game too? God, I hope so.

I mean, not only players on the way up should get all of our attention

No KP, no Frank, no real reason to watch (I will anyway) so here's some KP and Frank

Frank and KP wont play?

On a serious note. I will like to see the team play a full game of team ball and defense. If we are going to suck I want to at least show effort. Give me something to watch guys.

Also I better not see XRM, Jack, or no bums this game. This better be the real rotation without KP and Frank. No horsing around. If he plays bums im definitely going to turn on Horny bc that would mean he doesnt know wth he's doing.

Trey is D League bound. Don't get all moist. This does not mean that Frank is getting a prosthetic. It doesn't mean Anything more than due dilligence. Calm down people. The rebuild started 3 weeks ago. Adjust your perspective. This could take a while. Not every signing or every draft pick will be a homerun. Odds are most won't. Calm down and let it play out. Give a week!

my penis just completely inverted. record speed too

When’s the lineup suppose to be submitted ?

Red Vines · Post #54 » by **Red Vines** » Fri Oct 13, 2017 6:55 pm

Other than trying out Burke, I'd treat this like our first regular game, take a guess at the best rotation and go for it. Need to make expectations clear and start holding players accountable.

Preseason that I was looking forward to the most since my adult years of being a Knick fan has turned into a complete letdown. Hope KP and Frank play next week.

We all hope Frank is, and I'm more than happy to watch him learn and improve. Sessions is bad otherwise he wouldn't be on the Knicks for the vet minimum. He'd be a backup PG for a team that is trying to play meaningful games.

This is Trey Burke's night to shine. Let's all wish him well.
