So many jumpers off the dribble...this dude could really be a gem if that's real progression...improved defense would help a lot too.

There's some stretch 4 Melo in his game, and I mean that as a compliment.

It's hard not to get excited about Julius but I want to see him play a couple months before I buy into the hype. I also see shades of David Lee in his game and he didn't lead us anywhere despite putting up some gaudy numbers. But like Zach Lavine Randle's improved every season since he entered the league and those are the guys I usually trust because that means they put in the work. I really want to get excited.

I think Mitch should start. I think Mitch will start. I also think it's not a given Mitch will start.

I also think the Knicks will cap his minutes around 28 per game, for a variety of reasons. Most of them being he's a 2nd year player, others around keeping him fresh, impactful, and saving him and any foul troubles for the 4th quarter.

I'm fine with Mitch playing 28 mpg this year

Give him 28 & give Randle the majority (if not all) of the rest of the minutes at C. Opens up enough mins for Knox and Morris at the 4 and will allow some more minutes for 3 guard lineups / RJ at the 3

I don't see any reason for randle to play the 5 when we have bobby portis.

That’s exactly the reason I want to play Randle at the 5.

Ok well when bobby and randle are on the court together you can pretend that randle is at the 5. Problem solved

I think Portis can get about 10 mpg. Basically, it's almost like his and Knox's minutes are tied, in how much time they want Knox to see at the 4 (if any), since I see Morris and Randle getting most of the minutes at 4, and Randle and Mitch at 5, but there still being - so that's 96 minutes split 3 ways. But since Morris will also see time at the 3, and Mitch probably averages 28 mpg, there is...I don't know. Some minutes for Portis to back up 4 and 5.

I see the rotation differently

3 morris 22/knox 20/ iggy 6
4 randle 34/ iggy 10/ bobby 4
5 mitch 30/ bobby 14/ taj 4
