Markelle Fultz...the #1 PG prospect in the 2017 draft at the moment

what's his strengths? I haven't paid any attention to the draft prospects (was hoping not to but I guess I will..)


He's a hell of a passer and could grow into a hell of a defender too.

KP Three points?

You can kiss an All Star spot pretty much good bye.

Uncle Tskitishvili in Georgia is proud of you.

Too eager to shoot as soon as he got the ball.

N'Dour has bad hands, couldn't catch passes.

Nobody other than D-Rose taking to the rim, everyone settling for perimeter shots.

Lack of bad cop in the locker room, everyone wants to be a good cop, no a cool cop. We need someone who's angry and dirty, and get down to business. We need bad ****, ppl who will get into ppl's faces and lit a fire.

Fans are ripped and robbed.

Harden, Gordon, Anderson, Harrell, McDaniels and MDFAntoni ****, killin, and grillin us.

Dont wanna hear anything about the offense.

Defense has been our issue in every single game. Including the Grizzlies game in which we gave up nearly 30 pts per qtr against them too (excluding the 1st qtr).

knicks are going to need some luck from the ping pong balls since so many teams are committed to tanking this draft.

drekwins wrote:The only two teams still delusional enough to trade for Melo are the Cavs and Clippers. Melo can not guard the 3 at all. He is way too slow-footed to be on the perimeter. Our best short-term option is to move Melo to the 4, KP to 5 and bring Noah off the bench. Then, I think that it would be wise to entertain a Melo for Blake swap ASAP.


Melo for Blake :lol: <-------Doc's reaction

At least we're the second best team in NYC, as I see the nets beat the Pistons.

Would love to add an I told ya so here. Noah was a downgrade because he can't stay on the floor and Rose isn't good. Makes you long for the days where we had RoLo.

Honestly, if KP doesn't wake up and assert himself we will lose more games. Granted Rose doesn't help with this. Fck Pick and Roll, Rose loves the pick and shoot.

it all boils down to pride.

ain't no defensive system can solve the issue of heart and pride. Our defense could even be just as bad with Thibs.

If the team wants to improve on defense, it has to come within. Noah's gotta make a statement. Rattle Melo up a bit. Rattle D-Rose up a bit. Rattle KP.

If Phil leaves, Mills is stepping into his place
WTF Post of 2017:

If Phil pulled that off, I would put a put a paper bag over my head, paste a picture of Jeannie on it, poke a hole through the mouth, and give Phil the best BJ he's ever had in his entire life.[/quote]

He's a hell of a passer and could grow into a hell of a defender too.

he's also very smooth with the rock, is athletic but also skilled, is nice in the PnR for a PG his age, and his jumper isn't a liability like so many PG's entering the NBA...he's also big for his position at 6'4

"It's early"

"We'll get there"

1-3


Someone find one of the Cullen's. Maybe they can turn Knick fans into vampires. That way we can actually be ok with giving them more time. Hey need a week? Fine. Need a year? Sure. Need a decade? No problem. Need a century? You know what? Why not, I live forever.

The nice thing is the Nets will play to win. Unlike Philly, Phoenix, Orlando, New Orleans, Washington, and even Dallas.

Hinkie has made tanking easily acceptable to fan bases.
