The best thing about the Mudiay deal might be that it moved us on from Dougie who was a serious sieve.

Vonleh and Burke are good players on very good deals.

I have not seen enough Mario to have a strong feeling on whether he’s a player or a Jimmer.

If Mario is a player then Perry/Mills are 3 of 4 in the reclamation game. If he’s a Jimmer, they are still 2 and 2.

Much still depends on what Fizz can get them to do going forward.

I think Mud is/will be a washout.
And Mario seems iffy.
But this is a development year.
So try a little patience.

Maybe Mario can reign in his mistake-prone tendencies and drain shots.  Perhaps he just hasn't figured out the NBA yet.

Maybe Mud can find a role that suits him.   But no reason to give up on him while he's still a Knick.


Yeah i meant let them go after the season.  My crystal ball (for what its worth) can see these guys future is in Europe.

Mudiay HAS NOT improved from last season.

Mario is terrible at basketball.

And you can divine all of this from three regular season games?

Bon appetite. 

PS: And Lance Thomas?  Uh huh.

Mudiay and Mario have been around for years.  DItto Lance a lot.

DID YOU NOTICE THE RECLAMATION PROJECTS THAT ARE WORKING ARE NOT THE SCOTT PERRY  "insert 25 cents to play again" VARIETY?

Perry  doubled down on old mistakes like a buffoon,.

IF Mudiay and Mario were good, why is Scott Perry the only one who can find them a job?

More willful bullshit.

Noah Vonleh?

Trey Burke?

Did i mention those names??  Weird response.

Blanket Dismissal of Reclamation Projects by Scott Perry.

Not Working?

Weird that you would NOT MENTION THESE NAMES. 

Duly Noted.

Perry had nothing to do with drafting those guys. You're either being willfully obstinate or you just don't read good.

Your point was that Perry had not signed any worthwhile reclamation projects

Remember? 

You might want to change over from Indica to Sativa, sahib.

No not my point at all.

There are your Vonlehs and Burkes.  The projects that are working.


Jeez - us

Do i have to spell out the words for you.... Mario and Mudiay were Perry's guys from the jump and he is too shortsided or stubborn to not throw more good money after bad.  The other 30 GMS had no interest in Mudiay or Mario at that money.

Kam - I get what you mean about Subpar Mario (trademark Kamiar 2018), but what is the Perry-Mudiay connection?

Perry was very high on Mudiay at the time of the draft.

Time to bench Lance Thomas...he doesn't bring much to the table.  No offence or defence.  Don't really care who replaces him but for a start I'd try Allonzo...I like his offence.


Knicks are getting 9 pts and 4 rebounds a game from their starting forwards.

I wouldn’t mind a Ekant, Vonleh, Frank, Timmy, Trier lineup as starters. It takes a lot of punch out of our bench, putting pressure on Robinson, Kornet, Mario, and Knox once healthy to step up. Lance may also be more productive against second units. Dotson and Burke are more than adequate reserve guards. They’d be fairly strong when augmented by a healthy Courtney Lee.

Apparently Fizzy had a talk with Timmy about the importance of teamwork. I have a feeling he'll be coaching us for the next decade

Actually THJ stated on his own to the press that he thought he shot too much vs Nets

When mentioned to Fizdale, Coach remarked that he didnt mind Tim taking that many.

The game was a bit of an outlier when it comes to assists of course (8 in the other 2 games combined)

Fun 3rd quarter and 4th.

Like the lineup before our non-defending "stars" came back into the game, even if it's clearly flawed.

Good energy and fight.

Another "Greek" tragedy awaits to end this one in the 4th?

Celts couldn't buy a hoop tonight.

Improved ball movement, but nothing was falling.

Still a week before Halloween, but Celts are in full trick or treat mode.

Glad we put some fight in it for a while. We got sucked in against GA and the resulting open 3s killed us. Middleton was automatic. Maybe Knox can start to guard one or both of them effectively in a year or two. Lopez has a nice new home.

I was very glad to see Mario and Dotson have productive games. We need them to keep getting better.

We need more Vonleh.

Ron played about the right number of minutes.

Hardaway has to figure out what to do with late game pressure.

Good scrappy games from Burke and Kanter.
