Knicks vs. JailBlazers PG Thread: KP6 $wishing & Jennings Dishing!

[Capn'O]

it's good for you. Eat some, live happy.

I love kale. Kale/Avocado/Green Onions/Lemon/Salt makes a fine salad. Confirming the slogan.

Avocado?

It's fine. The drought in Cali is gonna be tough for them. We need more haters.

Is it true fans bood melo at one point? Just got an update on my sports app like that.

Yeah. It's pretty weak sauce. He was in a 1 on 1. Missed, but it wasn't a bad shot.

The one at the end was bad. That's true.

Yes, Melo was booed in the middle of the 4th quarter. I was after he did a 7-second ISO that resulted in a badly missed jumper.

I HATE those type of Melo possessions, but it really was a rude and disrespectful gesture from the crowd during what was an entertaining game.

[dakomish23]

What a great team win, besides Melo.

Cmon man. He was off but the shots he took were well within the flow of the game. He took a bad shot which I hated in the fourth but sealed the game with that rebound.

If he's on fire and carries us to W's, he's a ball hog

If he shoots twice in the 4th, plays good D and makes big plays, he has nothing to do with the W

[El Poochio]

I wonder why Jennings sat the entire 4th qtr.

Is he injured? They did show a shot of him laying down on the floor stretching something out.

Easy answer. Shooting and defense. Cheese spread the floor and his size matched up better with their lineup.

Nah Jennings definitely would have got back in at some point. They showed him on the floor with what looked like a trainer working on his hamstring (I think).

He was limping too, while throwing alley-oop to Flyin Unicorn

[Knicks Byke]

Did y'all notice KP talking **** tonight? It was kind of awesome.

him and ET was talking smack. then KP scored 7 straight

[Rotten Apple]

Anyone notice how Evan Turner was roasting whoever was on him in the 4th and Melo said I got him and then we didn't hear from ET again.

BTW Rose HATES Evan Turner, he wanted this one bad.

KP you silky smooth 7 foot 3 masterpiece, **** Towns, **** AD, **** Embiid, who the **** is Myles Turner

CHEESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jennings makes BnO look dumber and dumber every day

22 FGA. SHOULD OF BEEN 44!!

let them hate, we won thats all that should be discussed

[Thugger HBC]

Something just crossed my mind. Brandon Jennings was supposed to be the 6th man, but turns out 11 dimes with zero turnovers.

Really good stuff.

He's upping the ante with nights like this

Smarter than folks give him credit for as well. He knows he has to shoot to keep things honest, but he knows the drill as well.

His primary role is to feed KP, and he does that well. He can easily pile on dimes just feeding KP.

The team has certainly met one personal checkmark I wanted to see.....home court appears to mean something.

[HEZI]

Even Ron Baker was awesome with that no look celebration after the Jennings dime

I saw Marshal Plumlee look like a dragon after Melo made a shot. Even though he didn't play it got me hype

I kind of forgot that Sasha was on the team but even he gets credit tonight

Get better JoNo

Lance take your time, no rush. I mean really really take your time, really bro it's ok no need to rush whatsoever

That's all I care about. They're not gonna tank so might as well enjoy the ride the moments you can.

Just a beautiful thing to have multiple options on this team

[knickabocker88]

Melo better get CP3 here next year if he wants a ring.

[Greenie]

It's nasty cap

[Wolfgang630]

I like how the crowd gets criticized for booing Melo. Just stop. You think its Melo against the world for some reason. This man needs CP3 to get a ring.

[dakomish23]

Gotta love that attitude.

[Knicksfan1992]

Another reason I appreciate this win is I really respect Lillard.

I think he is one of the greatest players alive today and beating his team feels just makes it feel a little more special than other victories.

Lillard is kind of my fantasy Knick and I've always wanted him to be in a Knicks uniform so beating him is second best.

I've dreamt of every elite PG being on this team at 1 point. CP3, Dame, Wall...all of them, hopefully my dream comes true 1 day.

Bro I pray for CP3 like every night before going to bed haha. After that fails pray for Wall in 2 years.

[MrProb]

My thoughts :

1. I feel like this team still hasn't locked in just yet, I feel like we could be much better, there're times when I feel like they're cruising on both end of the floor.
2. Like I said before, this team success relies heavily on our bench, BJ, O'Quinn, Kuz and Willy need to lighten the load of the starters.
3. Isn't it hopeful watching this team showing glimpse of hope from time to time even though we have a lot of new players and a new coach on top of that ?
4. Whenever Rose learns to kick out more... man those 3 will rain HARD and justice rain from above.
5. I would love to see Hornacek gives Baker some minutes that being said it's tough when Rose and Jennings perform well.
6. O'Quinn could start, sorry I doubted you, I was a fan of you before you moved here and then I lose faith in you, sry brah.
7. If we gel and we're healthy... ECF isn't too far from reach because we've got talents but that is a big IF.
8. Good fking win I can't remember the last time we won in a back and forth game like this, we usually came out with the L.

P.S. Courtey and Jennings proved me wrong, especially Jennings, I thought he would be a head case with a bunch of bonehead plays that will tear this team apart.

[AmazingJason]

Phil looks a little miffed the triangle not featured as heavily

Knowing Phil, it must have been hell watching that game. This is EXACTLY the opposite of how he wants the team to play.

Hey the players play the game.....Not Phil.....Rumor has it Phil was not happy with was said in that team meeting. As I said before the players play the game so to me anyway if tonights result was because the players did what they wanted to do...AND NOT WHAT PHIL WANTS TO DO. Then (as far as I am concerned) I vote for the players to get their way.....GO NY GO....GO KNICKS !!!

Supposedly, Phil didn't say much and just listened.

I'm sure he listened to everyone saying they don't want to run that garbage offense of his

[thebuzzardman]

Game thoughts to be shared later, but hey PR of Portland team, be careful of what you wish for.

Read on Twitter

"Super team" put a royal foot in dat behind.

Fitting for a team whose logo looks like Edward Scissorhands Goatse

[evevale]

With all the hype surrounding KP right now (I'm in his bandwagon too), I honestly can't get over how much progression BJ has already made in just a matter of weeks.

Seems like just yesterday he was dribbling the ball of his foot, looking genuinely lost on the court now that he's trying not to be a shoot-first PG and having poor body language out there. Now he is completely revitalized. He is finding his own shots when they are available, playing defense with tenacity and running our offense in a way that Rose simply can't. He's far beyond exceeded my expectations of him coming into the season and I'm happy for him! He's really doing a great job getting our second unit players good looks and keeping them energized.
