At this point its basically down to tank for the 19th pick or don't tank for the 21st pick.

Yeah, I don't think there will be much of a fall down the standings either. I mostly just wanted to post the tank photo because I always find it funny in the Knicks threads. Russ would never go along with a tank job anyway. I still wouldn't necessarily be heartbroken if we came away with the 19th pick in the draft vs. the 21-22. I mean we missed out on Devin Booker by one draft slot. Not to say that will happen in this draft, but you never know.

Same, its likely the 7 seed unless something weird happens w/ Kanter out. Maybe 6. I'd rather 6 just to play Houston. Knicks board is really really funny btw.

Sabonis and Roberson have been beyond horrendous from 3 the whole month (16.7% and 18.2% respectively), this is a big reason the starting lineup is struggling offensively. If this continues, Donovan has to make some change, maybe put Grant as a starter. Sabonis is a better option if the plan for the bench unit to just give the ball to the bigs and hope they score on a post-up anyway.

Since 12/1:

Abrines: 42.5 % on 3.5 3PA/G
Grant: 41.5 % on 1.5 3PA/G
Dipo: 33.0 % on 5.6 3PA/G
Russ: 32.8 % on 7.1 3PA/G
Cam: 30.0 % on 2.7 3PA/G
Morrow: 26.9 % on 3.1 3PA/G
Domas: 25.9 % on 2.1 3PA/G
Roberson: 21.3 % on 2.7 3PA/G

30.8 % from 3 as a team over that stretch. That's just terrible. Shooting has been killing this team for years now.

29.8% shooting from 3 on wide open shots since 12/1. It's remarkable you haven't lost more games given that, frankly. Even Oladipo is shooting 28.2% on such shots in that period.

Russ should get MVP off of that stat alone. With him off the floor, our NetRtG is as bad as the 76ers without Embiid.

Presti needs to get the **** going. I don't know what on earth he's waiting for.
