Damn, WWW really making connections to the roster. If he's got even half the pull around the league he once did, the Knicks might really find themselves with some options this offseason, even though they don't seem numerous right now.

Probably. But I saw the diamond in the rough. :D Rose was still attacking the basketball well and his BBIQ has always been good. But his 3-point shoot was really bad back then.

But, hey, we're living in the present and future looks bright! 8-) And kudos to Rose for continuing to work hard on his game. I love the way he's playing right now.


i share joy in the present with you, my brother. you just using your rose colored glasses to look for flowers in the past that ain't there. even rose says he was all wrong in NY the first time and sees this as an opportunity to redeem his reputation (based on his play and behavior).


“Rose-colorered glasses” :lol:

If Rose says he wasn’t right, then he wasn’t right. But we’d still see occasional flashes of his talent. Wasn’t he still working his back from an injury when we signed him?

I remember you wanted to keep him.

I couldn't stand the way he played then. Love it now. He's slowed everything down. Plays with pace but still has his burst. And he can shoot, which opens up a lot of opportunities. I'll take this version of Rose, thank you.

Ban this man from courtside. If he wants to watch playoff basketball he can do so from the nosebleeds. Put him in a boat with Rapaport and Kellerman and ship'm to Guam. You can't get back on the wagon.

Congrats to Randle on being named EPOM he deserved it, his hard work and dedication to his craft is admirable.

You embarrassed yet?
Those last 70 seconds, Randle in a nut shell.

Awful 2 for 1 3PT attempt when we are up 2
Doesn’t close out on Sabonis --> open 3
Takes another side step off balance 3

We got sucked into the Randle vortex where all good feelings go to die.

Thibs on the Jump touched on the close-outs that por was referring to when we were debating the Knicks 3P defense earlier in the season.
