Could be true, though.

Okay, I'll rise to the bait.

Miller was an interim coach for the Knicks when the team achieved the gaudy heights of 17 wins and 27 losses.

I don't want to ruin your pet project, but you might want to see historically how many times an NBA team re-hired an old coach with a losing record.

I'm sure it's possible. Just as I think it's possible that Jesus will glide down to earth any day now on a fiery surfboard.

I just wouldn't put any wagers on the matter.

First 3 halfcourt possessions, Utah goes at 4Eva with three different players (Bogey, Conley then Mitchell).  Go for the soft underbelly ...

Fun game.  Lost it on offense again.

Great fight with this group.  It will be a shame to break them up.

I'm sympathetic with this comment. I like most of our guys too, and that's something I couldn't always say in the past.

But it seems obvious that they're not working well together, and that won't radically change soon. Something has to give.

I'd be quite surprised if a big trade doesn't emerge.

When we played Utah last night, I couldn't help thinking,

Damn. How dominant might we be with a Donovan Mitchell?

Fire, leadership, impact. We've got nothing like that.

Uh, we don't even have a Mike Conley ...

Kemba was a Plan C, after the Knix failed to prioritize signing a starting level PG, or otherwise failed to do so. Kemba as a one year stop-gap was acceptable once options (and cap space) were limited.  It's the 2nd year for Walker which is/will be problematic.

I would have knocked myself out to sign a FA PG such as FVV or BallZo.  Even if they don't prove a good fit or aren't really the guy you want, it gets you in the conversation for further trades.  Later if desired you can swap out an FVV/ZoBall for a Brogdon/Brunson/DeJounte (ideally TyH or Shai).  Both FVV and ZoBall are solid defenders, which should fit Thibs well.


RedCam had a pretty interesting 2Q stint.  Made two nice cuts into the paint.  Passed to a wide open Burks who missed the straightaway 3.  Hounded Conley one possession.  Then got a steal.  Also missed a FT, got stripped on the break after the steal, and his first 3 was an airball.  He's a wildcard.  But I liked his effort on both ends.  Hell, it's good to just see a Knick cut towards the rim.  (Obit does it some).

I even liked Red Dish doling out a hard foul.  When Mitch was dominating the boards and dunking like mad, I kept wanting Udoka to just knock Mitch down one time.  I guess that's gone out of fashion, but hell if Im letting a guy pummel me silly over and over.  Send a message and make Mitch pick himself up and make some FT's.

Kings trade Haliburton and Heild for Sabonis.   Indiana has a new backcourt with Ty and Lavert.

Kings are idiots. 

We should have traded Randle plus for TyH and Hield.

Don't give up the dream. There has been chatter....first, we would certainly need another Utah fail.

lol...Kings would have done that 4 sure.

And the Knicks were FVV's first choice all along. But we forgot to axe.

And the police have nothing to do with China's health code app, absolutely nothing! NOTHING I SAY!!!!!
