perhaps they should have cleaned house, including these assistants that are holdovers. No wonder our starters are so inconsistent during last season

Kolek looked much better under the previous system, it did a great job of emphasizing his best skills-passing while limiting his weaknesses

I try not to read too much into SL but this is not encouraging. We actually need a capable back up PG


Markelle Fultz is a FA....

They cant find any new assistants to get, if they cleaned house there would only be Mike Brown :lol:

All that swag gone cuz Thibs with his asinine DNP-CDs killed young players' confidence

"Maybe I'm not that good", "If Thibs played me 1 min and 30 DNPs... that means I'm a scrub"


I am tired of this kind of narrative.

Deuce almost did not play in his first year and he was very good in his second.

Its kind of normal rookies not playing in their first year. Spurs and Heat were famous for it. Especially second rounders.

I thought we played ok in the first half but didnt make any shots. Kolek and Pac Daddi missed over 20 shots combined. How do you come back from that? McCular has played well. But unless we have a PG our offense won't work and Kolek is a complete negative right now. Do we have anyone else able to play PG?

We could have found salaries and have pkenty of 2nds. Don’t get letting him slip since we were rumored interested for a while.


His salary js 3,5m. We would have to shred some salaries to get him in the payroll.

Markelle Fultz is a FA....


Fultz cant shoot. Injury-prone and we already have a lot of small guards in the roster.

Bem simmons at least have size..

Ben Simmons is imaginary at this point. Fultz played more than that Snuffleupagus

I was listening to Jake Fischer yesterday and he thinks the Knicks are done with guards.
