Awesome Knick performance!

Holding the strong shooting Nuggets to some 98 points!

What The Fuck
« Reply #9107 on: December 05, 2019, 09:31:19 PM »

We are behind by 30-35-40. 

Why the fuck is Ellington out there, in lieu of Ziggy and Trier. 

Wassup with that, Fizz? 

And just like that, ANOTHER FUCKING THREE....Denver shooting 18-of-30 from trey. 

How is that possible? 

What the fuck?

Improvement!

Last game lost by 44. This one only 37!

Keep the faith, soon we'll be losing games in the 20's!

It's all part of the "process" engineered by the most savvy executives in the NBA.

Says you, your smugness.  Trier at least knows how to create some offense. 

Defense?  Now there's an original idea, like Ellington is such a stopper.  Hell, Jimmer for that matter. 

Not like we couldn't use some offense. 

Knicks shoot 9-34 from trey [26.5%] and 15-23 from the FT line [65.2%], and 34-83 total [40.2%].

Nuggets pretty woeful from the FT line, but 21-39 [55.3%] from trey and 49-87 total [56.3%]. 

Have been playing competitively in the first quarter, but when the first couple of punches land, and teams start raining threes, you can just see the fight drain the fuck out of them. 

Ah me...

What good is firing anyone at this time going to do? 

Want to clean house? 

April, with some sort of plan in mind perhaps, but is Dolan going to essay a plan for new VP, GM and Coach? 

Is that going to enhance our offensive coherence or inculcate three point defense?

I think there is already a plan.

April?  No.  Sooner than that

Look at some of Bo's posts

I like Morris staying, but we will likely move him.

Randle stays.

Others - open season - and sooner rather than later.

Randle stays.

I wouldn't keep both Randle and Morris.
As Clyde frequently points out, they rarely play well in the same game, and both have iso tendencies, not compatible.

I would like to keep Morris for his effort, skill, and ability to mentor Knox.  But he's our most valuable trade chip as he's pretty plug'n'play on any team.  Besides his age doesn't match our time frame, and he's miscast as a #1 or even #2 option, and we don't have and are unlikely to bring in Big Dogs to outrank him.  So a good player to have but more valuable elsewhere.

If we could move Randle, I'd be more up for keeping Morristown.
Maybe we can trade Randle to an NFL team.

Another team shoots lights out on 3's v. Knix.
I figured DEN's ball movement O and good shooters would bury us. 
Knix are really bad at scramble defense.

Knix starters only played half the game, but just 2-4 on FT's.

I was giving Wil Barton some ish, and still wonder how Nugs will defend LeBJ, Kawhi, etc.  But Barton having career bests in 3Pt% and Boards, and 2nd best in most other categories.  Looking like his best year.  But DEN needs to become a playoff force.

I'd take Monte Morris and Juancho/Porter for Morris (I think).
Morris would toughen them up.
