![]() ATL won the game. the knicks were not defeated, ATL flat out played great!!!
No secret when a team shoots 60% in the first half its not easy to win the rest of the way unless you get hot. Chaulk this up to the better team won. I know y'all wanted it, but we gonna have lots of "teaching moment" games. ATL is basically the same as last year with good chemistry. Give them credit. |

![]() It's extremely hard to defend a team that spaces well and has 4 guys on the court at once that can knock down the three. And all a player needs to shoot is 33% from three and it is the same as making 50% of twos. So there are so many reasons that teams are becoming 3-point shooting teams and working to make every big man with range a 3-point shooter. Good news for us is we have the ability to fight fire with fire. KP gives us a big man that not only has the length and versatility to guard 4s, but also hit threes. A true stretch 4. At any given time we should have 4 3-point capable shooters on the floor, and that's a very good thing for the future of this team.

Also, having calderon allowing penetration on every single play will destroy your defense. It was a disgusting sight (unless you were an atlanta fan). so here is what phil is thinking ....

That means we can extend out on our man ah ... but our big 7 footers our being stretched out to the arc and can't help when their guards take our guards off the dribble. And, if they try, havoc! don't know why this is so complicated. Briggs thinks that our 7 footers are just sitting and waiting to help under the basket cause thats where their man is. It does not work like that anymore. so here is what phil is thinking ....

The 3s simply can't be defended since people are trying to help to avoid giving up uncontested layups. I don't really see this changing too much throughout the year with Calderon playing 20 + min a game, but I will hope for the best. |

![]() another issue is that old school philosophy is to not switch on the pick whereas the new school philosophy is lots of switching.
