Why the hell did Robinson not start? He’s the only positive plus minus on this team.

Sprained ring finger on his left hand.

Was bothering him throughout. 

You still looking to trade Marcus Morris? 

PS: Reggie Jackson with some serious back issues.  Stress reaction.  Out for a month.

Nobody in the Knicks media is holding fizdae accountable because he is such a “nice guy”

Then sit him the whole game.  Why play him if he hurt?

Depends on the return.  But if we don’t resign him it’s an opportunity lost to get compensation.

My # looking good, Carlos' # looking better.

Worst record in league of course.

Meanwhile, Dallas tied for 6th best record and take their third road win.

1 coach, 1 unicorn, 1 lottopickstar, bunch o bits. Seems like we coulda had that. Think we should have grabbed a coach when we had the chance? Lol, lol, lol..nah, we needed somebody to develop Kornet n Mudiay n Vonleh n could relate so top free agents would want to come here.

It's pathetic how Frank is used on offense.

His role is to make the simple, obvious lateral pass....and nothing else?

That’s years of European coaching ingrained into his FIBA brain.

Yeah, right, just like Luca Doncic.

41 mins for Barrett in a blowout loss is dumb.
The kid is going to get worn down.  Or injured.
I'd rather he plays hard and smart than just plays a lot and gets diminishing returns. 

He already has to deal with teams game planning him, trying to force him right and such.  Watching and making adjustments is important too, not just being out on the court a lot.  Breen said that RJB covers the most distance per game of any player in the League.

First 4 games, RJB shot 48% .  Last 3 games 35%, including just 3-13 on 3's.  80 mins in last 2 games.  Teams are adjusting to him, but that's also likely tired legs.

We saw Fizz overuse Knox last year and KK go through some significant struggles.  We don't need a replay.

Good game from Morris, but I don't think teams are really overly concerned about him shooting turnaround 18 footers and jacking 3's.  For the most part, iso stuff that doesn't pressure the D.
Knix took a lot of shots when there was no chance of a rebound. 
Morris also fouled a lot.

Morris auditioning for his next contract. 
Re-sign him?  Maybe, but how well does he mesh with Barrett, Mitch, Randle?  Maybe keep Morris and move Randle?

I'd definitely look to see what his trade value is.  He could be a valuable plug-n-play guy for a number of playoff teams.  And we could add a couple other role players -- Taj, Franc, Smith, Ellington -- to a thin team.  We have surplus goods. 

Morris is a good 3rd or 4th option on a good team.  And I like the fact that he's willing to go alpha dog when nobody else shows up.  But not sure I see the long term play or fit.  Morris isn't young, Knix aren't close to a playoff team ...

Anyone want to talk Bobby "Two Point" Portis' consistency?

Auditioning?  Morris?

Yeah, Mo gets reupped here.  I agree.

Clean em out, draft and sign.  Each year we tick up.  Just have to keep the GOOD.

That means a big deal for Robinson down the line - thankfully we dont need to do that this summer.

Knox is looking like a keeper now.

Can Brazdekis be a rotation guy by 20-21?

I think the potential for that is there

Knox, Morris, Iggy, Bobby, Mitch, Julius

RJ, Elfrid (Frank, Dennis)..........    NEED GUARDS  - (draft - could it be LaMelo?))
