Replace Lee with Dotson and I love it. Well as much as anyone can love a lineup with LFT in it

Get Noel in here asap


Be patient bro

Noel or Capela perfect next to KP. 2 mobile big front court.

Knicks dont have the cap space for either, but if they did they should spend it on Avery Bradley.

Noel can guard out on the perimeter too. Real active hands and gets in the passing lanes. Can also recover to help out at the rim.

Between him, KP at the rim, & Frank and Dotson on the perimeter, we could have a top 10 defense. Our offense would take a hit because all he can do is finish around the rim & go up for lobs.

Fits perfectly in the timeline too - only turns 24 next April.

Should be fun building the team going forward. Starting with maxing KP. Have to find a way to shed maybe some contracts then draft a good SF in the first round. Then you will have 2 young guys on rookie scale. Perry should have a fun time.

We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.

This post from early August has taken on new meaning or KoC knew something we didn't. With Phil gone, Melo has less motivation.

I'm also not understanding why he thought the team would be good because they're smiling as they sit on an airplane. That's all it takes? Not even proper implementation of the triangle offense?

Frank and Dotson sitting together. The possible backcourt of the future. For now Dotson is going to have play out of position at the 3.

Imagine Hornacek is right and we end up being a .500 club with Sessions averaging 16/8. So what? What can you possibly achieve with that? Let Frank play.

Tomorrow is a loss regardless... How about we don't let Carmelo drop a lot of points.

Kristaps Porzingis should not be playing defense on Carmelo tomorrow.. Let Beasley or Lance guard up melo.
