Every front court has been going off on the POS Plumlee, Frye and the Morris twins. I really hope that don't make even no knees washed up Amare and freaking Baragnani look like beasts against us.

I would like to see us start this lineup

Dragic
Ish
Green
Frye
Plumlee

Dragic and Ish can both penetrate and handle the ball (not as well as Bledsoe but better than anyone else on the team not named Dragic) and Hornacek can sub em out the way he did Bledsoe...with one of them always being on the court.

Tucker can bring energy off the bench and maybe the message will get through to Tucker to work on his shooting and to stop being a ball hog.

Really, what's there to lose with trying a different lineup?

Play aggressive defense from the start and we'll be fine.

On offense, Dragic needs to penetrate the whole game the way he forces himself to when down by 8 in the last few minutes of the game.

It will be hard to win. I wish Suns good luck. I wont be able watch the game. Will watch the game in the next day if Suns win.

Ish and Dragic should play together like bledsoe and dragic.

Knicks fan here, good luck tonight guys.

You're the better team. but I think my Knicks have a chance to pull it off at home and on a hot streak, when you guys are missing Bledsoe. Should be a good one.

As long as Tucker plays in "his" role, we will be fine

but if there is a lot of this

we wont win.

You haven't watched any games this season huh? Our front court defensive struggles have been pretty well established.

Well Markieff has never been a good defender. Frye as well!
Plumlee is a excellent rim protector but not a good man to man defender.
All I know is I already miss Bledsoe since he got injured I haven't enjoyed any of these games even the Mil game we looked flat no thanks to mil turnover ratio it made us look good.


I need to see Barbosa do something tonight hes only on a 10day he should be getting recognized.
If he is only gonna bring what he has to the table might as well let Archie have his minutes back and develop

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

It's gotta be pretty difficult to join a team on a long roadtrip with little to no practice with said team. I can almost guarantee he'll get a second 10-day contract, so he can have some time with the team at home, and get some much needed practice time in. I think Barbosa's been fine, all things considered.

Tucker's gonna have his hands full with Anthony tonight... hopefully he brings his A-game defensively. I could care less about what he does on offense tonight.

Barbosa needs to shoot more threes. Along with Frye, he is one of only 56 players in NBA history to shoot over 39% career.

Green is a fairly distant third on the team at 35.8% career.
