Anyone who thinks that nonsense you posted...I don't want what they're taking!!
We will have a roster dominated by youth that needs developing. With a new HC/offense/defense...that's going to come with losses and take AT LEAST 1 full season. Probably more. We should be in the lottery agsin next year. Unless of course Fizdale DOES have a magic wand.
Frank/Burke/Mud
Timmy/Dotson/Baker
Troy
KP
Lottery pick
CHI 2nd rd pick
2 2-way players
That's 12 players who all need work. KP out half the year. We will be bad. If Fizdale can coach...we will be lucky to be competitive in those losses.
yeah without KP there is zero chance we make the playoffs
hopefully Fiz does the right thing and develops those young guys and we finish next year with another top level pick and some cap space
but this year is gonna be a slow and long road
were gonna develop a commitment to a winning style and correct some bad tendencies at best
its amazing that Phily is worshiped here but trusting the process is never a part of anyones understanding of the plan here
Exactly. They played 1 season and got whooped in the 2nd round. Good season. Good shape going forward. Took them YEARS to get there. They whiffed on multiple picks on the way Trust the process.
Knicks have just started the rebuild process. 1 year in. This team is never gonna be as good as Philly? We aren't as far behind as everyone thinks IMO. We just can't afford to whiff on any picks.
Frank becomes a starter. KP comes back healthy. We nail this pick. Develop 3-4 good players out of Burke/Troy/Mud/Dotson/Baker/Lottery pick/2nd rd pick or even a 2-way player. That's as good as Philly.
Lot of ifs and a lot of work to do but, our process is under way and IDGAF about Philly/Boston or anyone else. I have plenty to look forward to right here in NY.
LET'S GO KNICKS!!!
truthfully Philly screwed the pooch on most of their choices
it was just sitting on Embid for Years that paid off
without him no one is talking about them, just the 6'10" point guard who can't shoot. who I love, don't get me wrong
the knocks meanwhile could be looking at Frank, KP and Bridges as our three draftee starters. Thats three strong, long, defensive players with pretty solid 3 point range. If we can trade THjr for a solid SF like Crowder or something were not in bad shape at all
long, tough, defensive players like those three are something to be excited about especially when you can spend and attract in free agency in a couple of years
