Knicks-Pistons PG Thread
Defense was an embarrassment in the first half, and completely wasted our offensive efficiency.
Defense was much better in the 2nd half, but fell back into bad habits down the stretch trying to go 1-on-1.
Honest question...will we ever have a coach who will call a timeout and inform the players that he'd like them to run the damn offense down the stretch? Breen commented that Hornacek was beside himself when Melo and Rose went ISO 4 or 5 possessions in a row when we had a chance to cut it to 3, but he didn't do anything about it.
Something to keep an eye on.
On to the next one

PG Thread: No Ball Movement + No Defense = Loss
AJ's Top 10 Takeaways
1) This team sucks. We got hoodwinked by Chicago. They're undefeated with Rondo and Wade. Meanwhile, we cant' even beat Detroit and already have a losing record.
2) Can we fire that f*cking perv Rambis and bring in a goddamn defensive assistant? Jesus.
3) We also need another assistant just for doing substitutions because Hornacek doen't know how to f*cking stagger. Jennings/Sasha/Ndour/Lance/O'Quinn
4) It's on nights like these that KP = poor man's Chris Bosh with anemia instead of blood clots
We might only be able to expect only one good quarter of basketball when his condition is acting up.
5) We got a combination of Olympic Melo and Welo tonight. Olympic Welo.
6) The best way to describe Derrick Rose as a basketball player is the same way that I do for myself: "Too big, too quick, too strong."
7) I see you, N'dour. I see you.
8) Thomas STILL gets to play
I'm actually at the point at which I want to outright cut him. Enough is enough.
DeanTheDream put it best in the game thread: "I hope Lance makes a bad investment and losses all the money we foolishly paid him, then loses the hot girl friend as a result, and his fancy new home shown here in photos goes into foreclosure. Then he gets traded to the Nets. FU LFT"
9) Where the f*ck is Kuzminskas?
10) It's freakish how much Morris is like prime Melo. That can play defense.

Re: Knicks-Pistons PG Thread
Lance Thomas is useless garbage. Worst Contract in the NBA. Jennings and O'Quinn not far behind. Welo is done. Is it 2019 yet
Rose is the best player on this team

Re: Knicks-Pistons PG Thread
The last 5 min of that game is some of the worst basketball I've ever seen a team play that was actually trying to be good. Holy ****.

Re: Knicks-Pistons PG Thread
That was as slow and terrible as I've seen any team ever play.
What happened to opening it up? Instead we see that grind it out bull.
We are not good enough to win like that.

Re: Knicks-Pistons PG Thread
Lance Thomas' journey was a nice little story..but it's time to close the book. The guy shouldn't be in the league. And I believe he played around 30 mins. That's pathetic coaching from Hornacek.
