selfish player, subsume ego, me-first guy, what the f are you idiots talking about?

Our coach isn't trying to win games. Players who care about winning are pissed as fuck.

Agree about the idiots part. 

Not that coach isn't trying to win. 

Enes

Courtney

Lance

Perhaps Timmy? 

Are clearly not part of 2019-2020 going forward. 

Coach has been empowered to let our kids take their lumps. 

Does throwing Luke Kornet straight out of the bassinet in against the likes of Rudy Gobert betray a consciousness of guilt?  Anymore than tossing tadpole Mitchell Robinson into the fray, his shot blocking instincts notwithstanding, before he even has the semblance of a rounded NBA game? 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

If this season is a wash, down time for Porzingis, an inevitable march towards Zion (hey, REALITY CHECK: even the worst record doesn't guarantee the #1 pick...luck of the fucking draw, and it would be out dumb luck, wouldn't it...), then hey, conduct open tryouts for next season. 

But agree with you about Kam Sandwich's screeds against Kanter.  Whatever his limitations, real or projected, he has stood up and competed as a Knick, stood up for his fellow Knicks, a team mate's team mate.  Me first?  Bull SHIT.  My personal fave of analytics being that double doubles are no big deal, and that Kanter is just selfishly padding his stats. 

This being a forum of FANS, there are widely disparate narratives at play, and several of our brothers in blue and orange have decidedly personal feelings as regards certain players...

What can you do? 

Still, I can see how you'd be rubbed the wrong way by evaluations that vector from the analytic to the hyper-personal. 

Still, Dawg, this is what a 9-28 season feels like, when the rallying cry is DON'T GO KNICKS, and all that remains are too fantasize about draft picks, conjure trades, and attach Scarlett Letters and propose public dunkings for players who are made to bear the weight of our current distress. 

Not much to hold on to is there? 

Progress from the likes of pre-hamstring Trier, pre-ankle Robinson, Mudiay, Vonleh, Dotson.  Knox and Kornet showing great offensive aptitude and growth, while getting regularly undressed on D.  Frustration as regards the up/down play of Ntilikina.  Injuries afflicting Timmy and Trey. 

DON'T GO KNICKS...DON'T GO KNICKS.

Development, Fiz?

Why was Robinson not placed in the G League from the outset?

Wanting to win is fine but he isn’t capable of doing so. 
Were you a fucking sleep last season?

10pts is no big deal.
10rebs is only a big deal if you're small.

Oh ... i see... MY screens offend the CHipwhich  BUT  Enes Kanter can go on a locker-room tirade and Chip loves the smell.

[kiiidcarter8]

Tough game for Lonzo last night.  -20 in a win as Hart carried the mail in the comeback.

[chipstern]

Oh ... i see... MY screens offend the CHipwhich  BUT  Enes Kanter can go on a locker-room tirade and Chip loves the smell.

He is a competitor who wants to contribute and wants to win. 

I wouldn't expect you to relate to that.

Knicks 3-11 when Kanter doesn't start

Program note

Anyone to watch on Spurs?

Knicks 3-11 when Kanter doesn't start

So, that means we are 6-17 when Enes does?

We appear to be fucked either way. 

I don't appreciate the way Enes is being hung out to dry, but Fizdale has certainly given EVERYONE time in the bucket and time to turn it around. 

I have a rooting interest in Hezonja, and am impressed by his skill set and athleticism, but he has not strung together any runs of consistent play, doing just enough to tease us about his potential. 

Still, Fizz gave him the staring nod, and endeavored to build his confidence. 

Not to the degree he has with French Frank, but for real. 

Mario has not so far responded as he might. Looking like a different player from one possession to another.  Fizz can't keep playing Knox 40+ a night, so Lance and Mario should see some burn. 

As for Frank...for short stretches he puts it all together, and you can see the package...then, he goes turtle and recedes into his shell. 

As for Enes? 

Fizz clearly likes what Robinson brings on D, and Kornet brings as a stretch 5/4.  Thus, Enes getting squeezed, as that old school style does not seem to fit what Coach envisions going forward.  Still, nice to have someone who can get you a basket in the box.  Would be surprised if he simply drops out of the rotation. 

We shall see.  Enes is frustrated.  Wouldn't respect him if he wasn't.  However ginning him up as a malcontent and speaking of the smell is smug jive. 

I've seen Enes for Jabari floated.  Robbing Peter to pay Paul.  No thanks. 

[kiiidcarter8]

Not sure what you mean

Mitch has missed last 7 games.

[bodiddley]

Anyone to watch on Spurs?

Bertans has been lighting it up.  Shooting 48% from 3 for the season.
49% FG; 91% FT.

Poeltl has been strong.  5 boards in 15 mins.  63% FG (same as his FT% though)

Pau might be back.

[Nagel]

KP can get out of here soon.

no reason to stay.  NONE.
