The starting SF slot is there for the taking.
Knox still makes a good deal of mental mistakes.
But increasingly he balances that with good play.
I still think he can become a near all-star quality SF, say a Caron Butler or Rudy Gay level player.  But it's going to take work and determination.  Needs to use his physical tools better and play wiser.  It's a process.  Hope NYK has the patience and he sticks.

He has been playhing with a higher motor and better focus. 

He has been focused on defense, making blocks and stops, though still frustrated by awkward fouls. 

He has been moving without the ball, getting to his spots, and knockikng down clutch threes. 

HE HAS BEEN MAKING SHARP, DECISIVE PASSES, FINDING THE OPEN MAN, SUCH AS A BEAUTY HE MADE TO HIGH IQ THE OTHER NIGHT. 

There is a place for him in the rotation at the 3 & 4, and he has clearly bought into the Kook Aid Kenny Payne and Grandmaster Thibs are proferring to him. 

Baby steps, but palpable, significant improvement.

Lost in all the "who should start?" talk is that guys across the league, NY being no exception, are having a tough time staying healthy

Burks may be back tonight - Reggie may be down.

With TEN playoff slots per conference, could be teams will be more careful getting their forces back 100% before activating.

Burks in a walking boot. 

Will be re-evaluated in 7-10.

However, we might be seeing Dennis and Omari tonight.

There ya go

Thanks for the update

Knicks actually enjoying a  cushion right now in playoff race

heh

[lesterluv]

It begins with the Dem takeover of the Senate...
Moves on to the complete disintegration of the Republicans and the ultimate implosion of the orange assclown at the Capitol.
And will end with a Knicks-Jazz game!!!!

For a lesterdawg, it just DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS.

Some of the players out are on CoVid quarantine, such as Durant schedule to kiss 7 days (4 games) if he continues tp test negative.

Only saw a few scattered minutes v UTAh.
Knick starters 0-6 on 3's.
Randle now 1-17 on treys in the last 4 games.
I heard Clyde questioning whether Julius and RJB were worn down form the heavy minutes load.
Legs (and subsequently 3's) first thing to go.

Funny, our starters played theirs even, but their bench killed us even as Knox & Rivers shot 7-10.
I saw very little, mostly just RJ "Mr. Consistent" Barrett's pair of miscues.
(1-9 FG, 2 turnovers, 3 points)

Actually no Knick has been consistent, but everyone has seemingly put together a few game hot streak.
Elf has been consistent lately, but started the season in a funk. 
Seems each game 2 or 3 Knicks play well -- often same guys for 3 games, then others take a turn at it.

[bodiddley]

Knix with a 3Q run.
Knix  getting layups, Utah launching 3's.
Knix just 2-13 on 3's (both bench makes).

Utah is 2-7 on FT's!
I forgot Utes had Favors back.  That works nicely for them.

[kidcarter8]

Thibs with some Billy Beane-ing.

"You might not look like a good team. .but you are.  Play like one tonight."

[kidcarter8]

Rondo over Payton

Rubio over Payton

Ha hahhhh

[bodiddley]

Some seem to be under the delusion that its a 5 game season.
Elf stunk the first 2 games.  Has played well since.
He's still a quality backup, sub-par starter.

Elf's game seems to be resembling RJB's more and more.

[Kam]

That was not a backcourt violation?!

[Kam]

Austin Rivers!

[bodiddley]

So after a timeout with the game tied 96-all,
Au Revoir goes on a 14-4 run against the Jazz.
Wow!

He has improved to par Bo.

Forget the first two games.

This is a different team now.

[bodiddley]

While Gobert is a fine player, is he anywhere near worth 4/$155M?

Mitch, a super-bargain, makes just $1.6M this year.
