Im not sure what some of you are talking about. Our offense will soon be shoot when open, quick ball movement and pick n roll. If that ant JC then I dont know.

Jamal is shoot when open, shoot when double teamed, do not move the ball quickly but do that corny little crossover to shake his defender and chuck one up.

& even through all that he's probably the best player on this team right now.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I just put that into perspective and came very close to puking in my mouth.

Being on the best player on the Knicks means absolutely nothing.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

i didn't say it should mean a lot... people make him out to be the worst player on this roster sometimes, it's crazy to me... there's a lotta other things that need to be addressed on this team before we start worrying about replacing Jamal.

Jamal is a main part of the offense unfortunately. The way he plays messes up the flow of the offense and leads to the teams losing games. Except for a few games where he catches fire, he's not a good player and not a player who should be a 1, 2 or 3 option on a team.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Jamal is not a good ball player. He loses games he rarely produces wins, everyone is all over him for his clutch shot making, but the guys always takes the last shot and he is bound to make a few. How many eerrant 3's does he take to win games when he should be driving.

Not gonna give Craw huge points here, but under a D'Antoni system, he'll be driving soon enough. And your right. That's one thing he doesn't take advantage of.
I'll never trust this' team again.

It's true, when some of these guys have to slow the ball down and be the play maker, they end up turning it over. In D'Antoni system, it's run, shoot and no thinking. We may actually see Craw thrive.

I don't think D'Antoni is gonna take any of suckbury's bull****. Any sign of it and he's sitting. He's not going to let him do to him, what he did to Brown. No sir!

The problem with shooting is that Jamal Crawford sucks at it and D'Antoni's system doesn't automatically make you a better one. Quentin shot about the same percentage as he does now in Phoenix except back injuries caught up with him.

Well, I was referring to them 'not having to think so much'. It will be interesting to see if it helps.

you watch any Knick games last year? They didnt think to much let me tell you. Isiah's offense was throw the ball at the rim if your within 20 feet of it

I do think a big part of Crawford's low FG% is his shot selection has been horrible his whole career. That is one thing that can be helped. He shoots pretty well when he gets open looks. Then after hitting a couple he jacks up 6 contested 20 footers because he is "feeling it." That usually tranlates to about 40%
