Hardaway low key improving other aspects of his game. Assist, rebounding, and attacking. He's impressing lately.



That's cool, but I am thinking long term how much money could have been saved if Dotson was at least given a chance before throwing all that money at Tim. Knicks have ALOT of money tied up in unnecessary contracts. Noah, Baker THJ....

True I agree. Dotson is really skilled for real. I want him to get a chance also. Luckily its possible Lee would get traded. I like Dotson. He can play in the NBA and his college stats were not a fluke he's a shooter.

Yo win games with this roster, it will take Herculean efforts from KP PLUS major contributions from everyone else on the team.

How often are we going to get that mix?

But after Anderson torched the Knicks for 21 points to support James Harden’s 31 in the Rockets’ 119-97 victory Wednesday at the Garden, rejecting that offer does not seem like the wisest move.

And in under 20 minutes per game too. He's tied for 8th in the league for steals per game and the other players in the top 15 all play at least 30mpg. He already has an elite level skill at 19. Hopefully his offense grows over time.

It may be time to move Kanter to the bench. The bench cant do crap especially with no attack and dish point guard. Noah and Kanter does not sound bad off the bench.

Frank
Hardaway
Lee
KP
KOQ

Jack
Dotson
Doug
Kanter
Noah

Lance the ocassional defense guy
Beasley well.....

I'd absolutely love that starting lineup. Hoping we'd see WHG MCD and Dotson replace KOQ THJ and Lee as the first subs.

I dont mind loosing when the young players gt a chance to play and grow. Dotson and Frank both had their moments that give hope esp on the defensive side.

Don't care about the wins or the losses. Getting to see Frank develop is worth it.

Kanter should have got some touches early, Capela barely had to play defense. Have to put more pressure on the defense. We didn't have it last night though, Halloween hangover, it was the whole team.

Timmy is getting back which is a good sign. He's so much better off the dribble than his first go around and his passing is noticeably improved and of course the defense as well. Kill that contract all you want, but he's going to continue to produce.

Noah is the QB on Defense. Kanter can help with the scoring load.

If you start Noah or Kyle the doubling on KP will double. You have to have an offensive threat at C.

Yup. We reached to overpay an inconsistent player at a position where we already had a starter (Lee), a rookie to develop behind him (Dotson), and a 3rd string hustle guy (Baker). That contract will bother me until the day it expires.
