During the morning shoot around they take 7 plays that the opposition runs and go through a series of defensive schemes to counter it.. The head coach is responsible for in game adjustments and rotation, 2 areas fisher has major problems with.

A very good coach will master the game plan, take the info his assistance have supplied him with and put the right players in the right position. So when i start seeing fisher grasping for straws towards the emd of the first qtr when he has gone 11 deep it makes me think the planned they had was a crop of shht.

Fisher has never been too animated, thats not his personality, and during the first wk of training camp he vowed to speak less. He has the right frame of mind, but he still has a lot to learn and i think he needs a better staff behind him

so it odd that you pick the 1 quarter to criticize Fish, with the Knicks up 32-18.

You state that Fish has major problems with adjustments and rotations. Please explain.

How us anyone ever to find a giid rhythm if ur pulling him after 2 minutes because u just want ti experience if something will wrk. I literally seen him sub KOQ for kp with little over 5 min left in the qrt, he yanked him with 2+ mins left in the same qtr to put seraphin in, for what, just to give him some PT.

Then you'll stick with the same starters but your bench (which seem to have the best chemistry) you sabatage it by given guys irattic min.

If you want to flip flop the 10th guy, like ine game lance plays and one game serephin plays depending on the opponent, thats fine, but dont go givem guys token minutes for the hell of it, dont change whats working and ignore what not. Thats horrible coaching

Can someone please explain the following statement from Fisher to me:

Fisher: "If we're relying on Sasha and Jose to offensively make sure we're going to win, then we're not doing the right things anyway."

If not contribution on offense, where else can they contribute? Calderon is and was never known to be a defender. He is not rebounding the ball nor accumulating assists

I agree, very stupid comment by fisher that makes no logical sense, it's too bad none of the reporters hit him with a follow-up question on that. unless he's implying that they both just suck in general, but if he believed that then why would he be starting them?
