As long as he plays the younger guys and focuses on development he will be liked for at least this season. He says he will hold guys accountable on defense let’s see if he does.

Guys like LFT and Baker should be used as examples and threats to more talented players:
"See, that's the kind of hustle and execution I want to see. Now get out there and play more like that"
and
"You weren't doing what I said even after I played LFT/Baker to show you. I could give more of your minutes to them"

Anything more than that and the coach is suspect.

Would it make you feel better if he said he did it with hiring Fizdale in mind?

Next season should be a development season that ends with a decent to very good draft positioning.

It can be worse.

"The Orlando Magic added a rim protector they coveted Thursday, acquiring Oklahoma City Thunder big man Serge Ibaka in a draft-night trade for shooting guard Victor Oladipo, forward Ersan Ilyasova and the rights to the 11th pick, Gonzaga big man Domantas Sabonis.

Magic front-office officials — including general manager Rob Hennigan, assistant general managers Scott Perry and Matt Lloyd and CEO Alex Martins — clapped and high-fived once their team and the Thunder cemented the deal in principle."

I sure hope Perry was only along for the ride on that debacle.

Instead, he probably was one of the brains behind it. Knicks screwed again, probably.

This guy spit some company lines about fake NY toughness and everybody bit.

Again, we are a Euro centric squad, trying to play a euro style of ball like the rest of the league, but we got a guy who is going to pull on the heart strings of 90's Knicks fans and talk that fake tough guy bull but we all know this team starting with it's future leader isn't built like that, the NBA is no longer built like that.

Enjoy your new coach. At least we know our favorite player Lance Thomas will get minutes....since he's like Draymond **** Green.

It's pretty obvious who's the teacher's pet and does the dick sucking on this team.

KP had a hissy fit because Jeff told him to stop playing like a pussy....and this guy openly throws players under the bus, he went to Marc Gasol and told him that European ball isn't ****....his European championship doesn't mean ****...and he's supposed to help develop and nurture the future star of this team who hails from the place his new coach talks **** about?

Like always, the Knicks trying to put square pegs in round holes. This is going to be a disaster. I can't wait till summer camp to hear the same tired cliches about how we are going to play "New York basketball".

This dude is already talking about how he's going to try to make us a team who opponents fear to come to the Garden and play against....how many **** times have we heard this corny line with no squad to back it up? He's saying this too, like we don't know what the players on this squad are capable of......quick, somebody tell this coach :lol:
"I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but I see you are unarmed."

Return to New York Knicks
