Do the knicks have a big 3? A big 2?
Let’s just use the bulls , they have a legit big 3 and then a point guard to run the offense . Their lack of pointguard play is probably what sunk them vs NY
There needs to be a hierarchy or a pecking order or established order of production . You can’t keep going out with a team of middle men and act like it’s elite.
Who’s the knicks 2nd best player? To me it’s Kemba but he utilized like a place holding pointguard.
Sure we all want answers and solutions to not lose to treadmill teams like Orlando and Toronto.
Think about knicks 90s championship contending teams. Looking back they only had a big 1. As much it was the glory days it wasn’t enough then and not enough now.
The players are still in the process of becoming a team. It'll take a little time. I'm not as concerned about the offense as I am about the defense. Maybe when Nerlens gets back, he'll be better able to provide some rim protection for Rose and IQ.
agreed the defense is important but on nights where scrubs start going off in the garden, the knicks cant be caught flat footed.
right now julius, rj, kemba, fournier all average 9 fgs per 100 possessions. They need 2 , 3 or all of them to get to 10 fgs and then they are a more potent dangerous team.
