PG: Lack fundamentals 

Post#1 » by F N 11 » Tue Apr 6, 2021 1:30 am

Can’t grab a board

16 first half assist end game with 24
Randle and Rj decided to turn it over every possession up big
Where was Frank?
Did we go over Jeff Green? No
When is Randle going to get up on bum stretch 4s instead of chasing rebounds?
Rose can’t play more than 20 minutes
Get a point guard so Randle doesn’t have to do everything.


It is what it is, have at it.

Knicks played the Nets tough again. Proud Papa. Last time they had both Harden and Kyrie. It still was tight.

AND off to see some possible draft picks :wink:

Knicks are the Neanderthal cousin that went extinct, while the Nets on to invent glass buildings and the internet.

I don't really see how this team can make noise in the playoffs.

Rebounding is about desire and effort.

Nets wanted this WAY more.

Just, if your gonna take a pull up why not use randle as a decoy and hit quick/rj/burks/bullock?
Better yet, why didn't Randle just drive to the basket? It looked like he had a lane, but maybe my brain has finally evaporated.

Harden is out. KD is out. Heck even no Griffin. This is embarrassing.

There have been many losses this year clearly from lack of talent, but this was one of the few losses where lack of effort was the reason, of course Kyrie was his usual, but that nets team just lost to the bulls, while the Knicks had a double digit lead late in the 3rd quarter and then the lack of effort kicked in, their inability to get to loose balls and rebounding is exactly why they lost, unacceptable for this group that prides itself on out working their opponent..

It's that big 15 talk that motivated them and sounded real hollow after the team played soft the entire 2nd half.

All talk.

Losing in style. Nice to see RJ hitting that midrange J with confidence.

Let’s keep it going

Nope not with Elfrid Payton and Thibs giving IQ zero room for error all while coming off the bench in the most asinine minutes that would make it difficult for even Ray Allen to get hot.
