I've never heard Steele complain this much about the refs

Keeping it tied up at half time is another strong effort. It’s within striking reach.

yeah, but I was hoping that we'd start to see more out of him. He's still a service player but I'm not sure how much room there is for realistic growth.

Tied at half with a potential contender, can't really ask for anything else. Refs have been awful and Da Silva has missed 2 layups/dunks and 3 wide open 3s. We should probably be up at least 8.

Also AB has guarded Brunson, Bridges and then Towns! well in the same half. Pretty impressive.

I think it’s a bit silly to complain about TDS.

No Franz
No Paolo

Tied with a fully healthy Knicks roster (minus Mitchell Robinson).
Someone will have to convince me the Knicks are better than us. I think we're better even if barely.

I think he's a really good pick especially given the draft. But I have him as being a solid depth wing you can get for the MLE or slightly under every offseason. Not a guy I would hesitate to include in a deal for good value, but I know that's unpopular with some.

That being said I have really liked his defense at the 4 these past few games. And I hope I'm wrong and he ends up a lot better than my projection.

Can’t find any minutes for Cole and Jett on the 2nd unit? I don’t know what message Mosley is sending, but he’s sending it.

That is quite short sited. Rodman didn't even get to NBA til 24/25 and had a bad rookie season. To say a player has no upside just because they are not as young as other rookies is short sited. He could develop to be a solid NBA player possibly a starter somewhere someday down the road. He has shown more than enough glimpses to show potential.

The Knicks have also used all their future 1st round picks besides 2030. We still haven't used our picks yet.

If there's a team that will punish bad/undersized defenders its the Knicks

He is a rook playing his 28th game and he doesn’t have much more room to grow?

I'll take bets that TDS will not be going to the HOF like Rodman.
