Is Willy being freed?


Willy played 8 minutes and scored 12 points.

And don't think he got benched for lack of offense. :D

They are also running plays through Jokic as the first option.

Kristaps is getting the leftovers behind 2 ball dominant players.

Kristaps isn't going to be able to show his full potential until Carmelo is gone.

As a first option, Kristaps wouldn't be attempting a majority of his shots from behind the 3 point line.

Melo took 6 more shots than KP. 6. KP took 14 shots. Stop the excuses.


I was also thinking of mentioning Derrick, but had no reason to since he's gone by the deadline or at the end of the season.

Man this team is bizzare...like when is there going to be a time where enough is enough? It has become a circus, rather then looking forward to the next game this team is going to play it has instead become when is there going to be more drama. People spending their hard earned money working monday to friday watching this sorry ass team play. The Knicks as a whole have let their fans down and then some. Is it too much to ask for some pride in what you do? You going to let a jameer nelson outplay you? They all talk but i aint seen one person really have any iron behind their words. Bring Oak out of retirement i bet you he would light a fire in this team. Godsake this really likes it up the ass.

This team would just do so much better with a true two way PG

That said, let the tanks roll

The core supposed leaders of this team have been challenged by the coaches to play defense all year and they didn't step up. It took a new coach half a season to blast these supposed NBA stars which is pretty good. The last several coaches would never call it like it is.

Fans were mostly subdued during the early stages of Friday night's game. A couple 15-second-long "WE WANT OAKLEY!" chants broke out in the first quarter. But each time the chants grew, the Knicks played music over the loud speaker to dull the voices.

Guys comparing Jokic to Porzingis isn't fair. At this point in their careers, Jokic, Embiid, and Towns are a lot more developed. They're all better players than him. If some of you believe they will always be better then that's fine. They're all phenomenal players. Some of you need to stop being so upset and let the kid grow. We get it they're NBA ready from the beginning. KP isnt and that's a shame but he'll only get bigger and better in the future. I still think his ceiling is as high as theirs

Our PGs Rose and Jennings are awful on both sides of the ball. They are terrible. Just plain awful.

I think he meant to say "we're terrible at defense", but caught himself before it slipped is lips.

Even if we do get a top 3 pick i can see top prospects giving us the philly treatment and refuse to work out for us.

Again

LOOK IN THE MIRROR

This fool dies on every pick and gets beat off the dribble all the time

If we were going to play a roster full of defensive guys it would be

Baker Lee Holiday KP WHG

Which I wouldn't mind to be honest


O'Quinn has to play in there too.

Jeff, said that as long as guys are looking just to get theirs, we'll see more of this.

Was he talking Rose and Melo, penchant for alot more effort on offense than defense?

Who wrote this?

"He really lit my fuse with his low demand of himself on defense,..."
