Summer Knicks vs. Summer Hawks on Monday.
What time and what station please?
7pm EST/4pm PST. ESPN2 has had big gym games live while NBATV has been carrying the ones in the little gym. No indication of which one it is.
McBride and Grimes have solid spot minute chops as spark plugs or stoppers.
I was very happy to see Jericho hit 4-6 fts. He’s playable now. He’ll be unbenchable if he gets his pace and awareness up and hits freebies at a reasonable rate. He’s a really technical screener and low box operator who has the strength and poise to catch tough passes and loose balls. He gives Mitch someone to compete with physically for the first time in his career which should be good for both player’s development.
Rokas looked good, got a summer of closeup looks at the top of the ladder and goes right to an organization that can help him lift his game.
I’m stuck between Walker out of FSU and Simms out of Clemson for the second two-way spot. They are both well coached. Simms has the body, Walker has the motor. They both can shoot.
Obi’s quickest path to a starting role is to effectively defend wings. He won’t likely ever be great at it, but he’s made strides and can make more. Then he can take advantage of his gifts and cause real problems on the other end. He needs to add 3/4 to his current stretch 4 game.
It will be interesting to see how rotations shake out at camp.
My current read:
Mitch Noel Taj
Randle Obi Knox
RJ Burks
Fournier IQ Grimes
Rose Walker McBride Vildoza
Sims
Walker or Simms, though I’d take either one over Vildoza at this point.
