Knicks camp/preseason thread - Link in OP

[god shammgod]

if frank looks like he's up to challenge, i'm gonna instigate the sh*t out of the frank dennis war this season. lol

[F N 11]

Frank
RJ
KNOX
Randle
Mitch

or

DSJ
RJ
KNOX
Randle
Mitch

For me its one of these 2 lineups with bench who will be able to score with any bench in the league.

Funny thing is Frank is perfect next to RJ and DSJ. Might have to start son at the 3

Time to turn FIBA Frank into the Preseason Prince

he knows what we want to here.

Which is why we hear it every year

It's kinda cyclical in a way. FA comes in, says "this is New York, we're gonna be tough, don't disrespect us, we're gonna be a defensive team" yadda yadda, everyone gets hype, says "this guy gets it, he's real NY tough, not fake NY tough like the last guy that said it," then next thing you know, it's December and the only reason we haven't set records for ineptitude on defense is because the Cavs exist

I don't want to hear guys talking about being tough. Real tough guys don't have to constantly tell you they're tough guys

[god shammgod]

if they're gonna turn randle into a point forward and if they let rj be a playmaker too, you really only need defense and shooting from the 1.

Eh if you knew where Marcus and Markieff were actually from and their backgrounds you would know he's not joking around. He is actually a tough guy.

While I generally agree with this. I've never really questioned the toughness or crazy of the Morris bros tbh...didn't one of them get kicked out a preseason game for wanting to fight Mitch last year?

Narrator: He was not up to the challenge.

I kid I kid Frank stans. I want the kid to succeed.

Tickets to Frank Island are still available and the boat is gassed up

No more teams playing “flip the bottle”

No more teams leaving early to shower before the games over.

We’re deep enough to sustain a few suspensions.

I can believe Morris more than most guys, it was more a general statement

But you gotta admit, we've heard this same spiel every year, and the team absolutely does not walk the walk

The issue is Frank can potentially make it a 4 on 5 if people dont respect him. You have to respect the fact that DSJ will pull it from 3 without hesitation or bang it on your head making it easier all around. In terms of Balance I would love RJ and Randle to facilitate While Knox and Frank focus on knocking down 3's but Frank is a jumper away from being the ultimate glue guy. Im a frank supporter but he has to show he wont be thinking and just playing ball or hes a bench guy.

Winning is a much more effective strategy

yeah definitely we've had FA"s do that before that's why I mentioned Brandon Jennings in my previous post about it.

He sure was tough picking on 3rd string PGs at half court

Kanter was saying the same bull 2 years ago.

Honestly, I wish we'd bring back the "Don't help opposing players up" rule

[HerSports85]

Lol @ thinking Morris is a fake “tough” guy.

I see some don’t know much about him, it’s ok. You’ll get to know and appreciate him soon enough.
