Well?

I thought so. 

I mean, it's not like Randle could be getting better and finding a comfort level?

14-26

5-9

Nah. 

Off with his head. 

33-8-2

Hey, knock yourself out. 

MM?

22-8-2

Yup.

Keep those brilliant fucking trade proposals coming.

PS: Actual DEFENSE for 48 minutes.

That WOULD be a dark cloud. 

If...

We lost. 

But we didn't. 

Let's see how the team responds to the Wizards on Saturday.  If they have a similar focus.

Looking forward to watching this one. Sounds like an old school slug fest - that we won! Ha!

That said, it would be nice to have a consistent third scorer.

We figured it might be Barrett, but that's not happening this year.

Taj Gibson + B. Portis combined for 0-10.

Kadeem Allen + Iggy Brazdeikis were 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-1-1 in 3.

Who gives a fuck. The Nets starters went 11-49.

Nice game. Well played. Well coached.

**No DJ and extremely limited Knox helped a lot

**** now the Pistons know what to do against a G-League team, yes let's see what if anything we've learned on Sat.

They undercounted Frank’s and this the Knicks’ assists.

Both teams shot terribly, but they were down their top three scorers and creators but still a game’s a game. Nice D and decent ball and player movement. I believe we can develop more nuance and purpose over time with reps under this staff.

I’m now firmly not in a hurry to make any moves, though I don’t mind people in the organization with their ears and minds open. For now though, this looks like a basketball team.

DSJ should take a rehab stint with the Wee-Knicks once he’s healthy enough to play.

I’d offer Morris 43 mil over two years guaranteed and a team option for 25 in year three.

Ain't be happening. Morris bet on himself with a one year contract.
Been putting up a career year.  Unless he slumps badly or gets injured, Morris is going to be looking for a 4 year deal.  Will take a high payout 3 year deal if the market isn't great.

I expect he'll be seeking something like 4/$80M.
Probably willing to take a 3/$60+M, if no good longer deal materializes.  It's his last big score.  He needs that 3rd year guaranteed, and should be able to get that.  He'll want a 4th year, which takes him deep into his 30's.

Kind of an aberration game.
Nets took 50 3's.

Dinwiddie had more FT's than the Knix.
Aside from Randle's outburst, Knix sharpshooters 4-20 on 3's.

Knix have played better with Payton and the new coach.
Mostly soft schedule, but we lost games against CLE and such early in the year under Fizzbottom.

Knicks have a habit of acquiring terrible shooters.  BB is not that complicated...look for a guy that can shoot first,  and then look at the other tangibles.  If you can't shoot coaching and effort doesn't matter.

Check out JULIUS fucking RANDLE under Miller vs Fiz.....

No longer being held back

They made a big thing last night about Joe Ingles consecutive 25 point games - as Randle gets his second 30-pointer and will get no pub

It's STILL  a fucking cloud.  Three fourths of our youth movement cant get consistent traction.

Only the rookie gets a pass here.

Let's stop taliking about this "base" until the consistency arrives.

The kids are playing defense. The kids are moving themselves and the ball. If that doesn’t leave them enough in the tank to score much, so be it for now. Knox and Frank are getting noticeably good looks that they aren’t knocking down. They need to find their rhythm in Miller’s offense.

Hopefully they all light it up against Washington
