Hapless Hamster's Hard On

Your credibility as a handicapper of talent, based as it is on the Hamsterian being Priapically Pre-Occupied And Emotionally Challenged is HIGHLY SUSPECT. 

Your predictable response, of a significant stat line, by a player making a solid contribution on a WINNING TEAM, highlights from a no holds barred beat down of a team who embarrassed us  the night before, is all one needs to know about what a petty, pusillanimous little pissant the Kamster is. 

Meaning, who in actuality is the  SAD SACK OF SHIT  here? 

Tsk Tsk Tsk. 

But hey, we've taken up too much of your time. 

It's such a nice day, why waste time with vermin such as I, when you can retrieve the magnifying glass out of the secret compartment in your candy drawer, and enjoy the sunny day outside by setting fire to insects. 



PS: Shout out to a more advanced carbon-based life form, the distinguished BoD, watching one of his fantasy trade scenario all-stars, Meyers Leonard, light up the Knicks from three.

In the Pels game, at the 8:42 mark of the 2Q, Franc hesitatingly dribbles around 27 feet out.  Looks like he doesn't want the ball.
Wants to give a handoff which is guarded.  So he takes two mincing dribbles and tries to pass to Portis at the 3 point line, whose man is overplaying and fairly easily steals the pass.   Weak, tentative, non-threatening -- a real poor perimeter turnover.  Just not an acceptable play/turnover.  I'd feel dumb if I did that in a pickup game.

This is the kind of strange feebleness Franc needs to overcome.
He has a lot to work on.  Also I don't think Franc's defense is near elite.  It's pretty good and he makes good effort.  But I don't see quick enough reflexes or enough speed and aggression which could take him to elite. 

I'm all for patience with Franc.  I'd probably start him the rest of the season.  But it doesn't help to gloss over his considerable flaws or unduly elevate his few strengths.

Btw, with Morris & Randle out, Knix started a rook and 4 journeymen (Bullock/Ellington/Portis/Taj).  Not one legit starter.

Considering how totally some motherfuckers in the media and on this forum have given up on Kevin Knox...

Gratifying to see he HASN'T GIVEN UP ON HIMSELF. 

PS: He Is 20 Years OLD, People

Meyers Len can play.  He's a little slow, flatfooted, short-armed on D.  But he can give a solid 20 mins a night.

Didn't realize a gem was on.
Tune in and Portis jacks a crummy long 3 early int he shot clock.

Question
« Reply #10177 on: January 12, 2020, 04:29:11 PM »
Considering how well KK seems to be playing when he is not looking over his shoulder waiting to get the hook.

Might it be worth considering some lineups where Randle plays the 5, Morris the 4 and Knox the 3?

Plenty of opportunity seeing as how the Kamster-Approved Mitchel Robinson is often in foul trouble. 

PS: Loves me some MR, but right now, have to agree with Kiid.  More an athlete than a playa.  Needs to round out his game with, oh, dare I say it, a jump shot, maybe a turnaround baby hook?  Something where we are not often reduced to 5-on-4 when he is out there.  Which is not to suggest that he isn't capable of spectacular, dominating, inspirational stretches.

PPS: But Robinson, like Knox, like Barrett...like Frank...is a PUPPY.  Much to work on.

Reggie Bullock

Man, he sure has a lightning quick release. 

Within 1. 

Come on Knicks, turn up the fucking D.

This is a winnable game.

PS: RJ hitting all his FTs.

Bullock's fault. Just shut the fuck up when you foul someone.  Talked the coach into it.
