The Reddish thing is frustrating.

He's 23, talented, and has potential to be an impactful player.

I was skeptical about him. But his early play really brought me around. And then....out of nowhere, relegated to Siberia. Thibs somehow could not find a way to use him.

So who could we get that's better?

Answer no one. But if the stories are true, we'll get Bullock back who plays good Thibs defense (though with a more limited offensive game).

In the Thibs universe, I suspect this is the best we can get.

Thibs universe?

Thibodeax isn't running the acquisitions department

Fournier and Rose for Westbrook being bandied about.

[chipstern]

The idea of Bullock for Reddish is so moronic.

Reggie cannot create off the bounce

His three point shooting has fallen way off. 

His D is no better than Reddish

I have no interest in Bullock.

Alec Burks?

Detroit is Quite Happy with him.   

Unless a #1 pick is coming back, I see no reason to gift Reddish to the Mavs, Lakers or whomever.

[elephant]

Agree, Chip. But then who are they trying to get for him?

They certainly haven't raised his value by gluing him to the bench for two months.

Terrible game. Wiz the better team tonight.

And Lester is right. It's painful to see the way Obi is used out there.

Too much one on one

Too much hero ball

Not enough ball movement

Predictable offense, easy to defend

We depend on Julius' offense and he was out of sorts

Knicks 18 -27

Yeah possible to forgive a "deflation" game after the tough MLK loss

But the 14 assists really spotlights the bigger problem.

Should we make the playoffs we get swept, losing by increasing margins each game, we are the most figure-out-able team in basketball.

Huge responsibility for Thibs to fix, he has wrought this, but also have to shine a wee light on Brunson's game too...he's the boss out there on the court.

Yes Brunson is.

But whose offense is he running?

Rumors of Thibs craving Reddish for Bullock, another Johnny One Note spot up shooter on the down side of his career and with $10 .Illinois guaranteed for 23-24...

Strickland for Cheeks anyone?

We're awfully good, better than we've been in years.

But good enough to move into the top rungs? Probably not.

I mean, we have the talent to be a DEEP team, which is pretty fucking useful if you don't have a superstar. But that has been frittered away, apparently because coach is more comfortable with a small, tight unit.

And that works...until it doesn't.

Im more concerned with the deployment of the offense than the depth of the rotation.

Looking over SCORES on ESPN NBA, there are a lot of coaches who believe in short rotations. 

Hell NINE would be considered generous by the likes of Mike D'Antoni and Jeff Van Gundy.

Facil has been very reflective of late in eschewing the latest variations on an Eric Gordon trade. 

I am sure all of us could come up with some variations on deals for Reddish, Fournier and Rose.

At present, I suspect Leon Rose & Company are exploring options, many of which are designed as much to provide soft landings and renewed opportunities for players are despite being underutlized, have been very professional in their collective and individual responses. 

The Bullock scenario which has been floated fills me with dread and loathing. 

I misread something on my internet feed which led me to believe Cam had been tradxed for Josh Richardson, which would be a score to be sure, but my bad, and salaries don't work.

What's the point of making a Knox/Reddish trade where you bring someone on to sit on the pine.

Rose has been a champ. 

Westbrook?

That would not bode well.

Out at least three weeks with fractured thumb
