Looks a little better here. Shooting motion more fluid than the last video which appears to have some delay at the release.

We should still roll with DSJ rather than overpay for Rozier. Everything to gain and really nothing to lose especially with some very good PG’s atop the 2020 draft.

No mentioning of frank in this article Dotson calls knox, robinson, trier, rj barret, rising stars?
Rehabbing Damyean Dotson, who finished the season as the Knicks’ starting shooting guard, believes the club will be fine even without a big free-agent splash.

If the Knicks sign Kevin Durant, he won’t be playing next season anyway because of his torn Achilles. Dotson, who underwent shoulder surgery in mid-May, made big strides in his second season despite playing with what turned out to be a torn labrum.

Dotson believes the young guys are only going to be better and RJ Barrett, their No. 3 pick, will be a boost.

“I’m a young guy still,’’ Dotson told The Post in phone interview Wednesday. “We have a full team of young guys. My teammates Allonzo (Trier), Kev (Kevin Knox) Mitchell (Robinson), RJ (Barrett), we’re rising stars. We can build together and one day become a great team if we work hard keep listening to coach (David Fizdale). All the guys played last year got experience.”

Next training camp, Dotson and Barrett could compete for the starting shooting guard slot.

“I watched him a couple of Duke games,’’ said Dotson, the Knicks’ second-round pick in 2017. “I like his game a lot. He’s explosive, athletic. He’s a good 1, 2 guard. Big strong guy. I think he’ll definitely help us become a better team.”

For 100 millionth time kp didn't want to be here in nyc he wanted to be with his boy donic. Kp had alleged rape allegation in nyc not good thing. Kp got in a fight in lativia got his azz kicked over there and pushed a woman not good thing to push a woman when you have rape allegation on you. Also the knicks had to move tim hardaway contract and got wes mattews and saved money. The knicks got the three idiots who complained lot out of here trey burke, tim hardaway, and kp. I don't put courtney lee in the idiot category like hardaway, burke, and kp because lee was a professional. If you can't get straight in your head that kp didn't want to be here was going to sign the qualifying offer so the knicks had to move him.


Stop eating what they're feeding you. He wanted out of an organization that repeatedly talked about changing culture and failed at it. If Dolan's head wasn't so far up his own ass, this could've been salvagible.

It wasn't going salvagible he wanted to be with his boy donic and there was nothing the knicks could do.

Dudes been a prima donna since his second year since he refused to come to the exit meetings. Let Dallas deal with that headache, his trade is addition by subtraction

Hahaha were you the one that said that you would cry in your room with the lights turned off if we missed out on D-Lo in the draft?

I recall there was a Russell supporter that posted that. I was just new in the forums then but those D-Lo vs KAT vs Okafor debates were fun.

idk i think he ripped that theory up with what he did last season for brooklyn. he was a big part of the reason the nets made the playoffs. He looked pretty much like crap in the post-season for his first time but hows that not winning basketball? He bought into the way brooklyn competes every game and i feel it helped him become a better player with a better mindset.

Dennis has to become a decent shooter beyond the arc though it doesnt have to be amazing. he finished the season shooting 28% from 3 as a knick that is buttjuice for a guard who likes to have the ball in his hand.

Why are you worried about his work ehisthic? He is a known gym rat

We still don't have a confirmation for a Kawhi Meeting. Just us trying to "secure" one. Hopefull it'll get cleared in the next 24 hours but I think it's pretty telling that the only 100% ones are the LA teams and Toronto.
