No way should he cut into Knox's mins...We're 7-21...We need to be developing our young players. Moreover, Knox has had 2 consecutive good games...

I know, but we have seen this knox before, and he doesnt stick around long. Maybe miller can get him to play both ends more consistent, but there's no question his motor shuts off and on..

I just realize that rhymes...uh oh Bars baby..lol

Knox has shown a more consistent effort level lately. I wouldnt cut his minutes unless that effort level drops again, not.just an off game or two. Too early to talk about cutting bait IMO. Youngest or second youngest player in the league last season, has shown enough to be patient. A .200 winning pct team isnt a great place to figure things out. Maybe a better prepared team will pay dividends.

how bright our future is largely depends on how Knox develops. Bullock has nothing to do with that. Morris has nothing to do with that. The season is lost, it makes no sense to starve Knox of minutes to benefit our mercenarie$

season is absolutely NOT lost. Thats madness. Knicks should look to play better and make the playoffs. My god there are 50+ games left.

supremeCommander wants to continue to tank at all cost so we can develop knox...he wants to get rid of every player the knicks didn't draft.

He is hell bent on making sure we have a fresh new roster every season

and you want to build around Morris and the like. You're also too damned dumb to realize that the Knicks have to go 34 and 20 or win 62.96% of there games just to finish 41-41, what is what you usually plan for to get the #8 seed. and if you're going to put words in my mouth at least get my stance correct. I want to trade every mediocre UFA we signed in the offseason and I want to trade guys the Knicks developed too like Dotson and Trier. None of these guys are long term pieces and you're friggin delusional if you believe that

This teams goal should not be to get the 8th seed.
But to show real progress after that 17 win season we just had.
Don't be one of the worst 3 teams.
Don't be one of the 16 best teams.

Lottery reform (as long as we are in it) and a relatively uniform draft class (there is no consensus game changer) ensures we still have a chance to improve in the draft no matter what record we have.

Everything in moderation. Even moderation.

the irony here is you seem to want to get rid of every player the Knicks did draft

I'm in SC camp

Building a team through FA is dumb, dumb, dumb in a salary capped league -- this isn't baseball

In basketball you have to amass more talent for roughly the same money as everyone else. On average you will get what you pay for in FA -- not bargain. If you're a stinky team -- if anything you need to overypay. Even if you're a mediocre team in NY you may need to overpay to compensate for the higher taxes and cost of living

the only expected bargains in basketball are getting a bona fide superstar who is worth more than his capped (max or super max) deal and rookies on their capped deals

Chasing FAs is stop gap to fill a hole. To build a team it's downright dumb

Getting players on the rise is a risk. Knicks signed Hardaway with this in mind. Noah was reclamation project. Last few years the worst contracts were NOT on the Knicks payroll for a change.
Lakers got Lebron because they had drafted assets to either build with or trade as they did with Davis. Same for Clippers.
So many moving parts to a successful construction. Luck plays into it. Spurs get Duncan. Maybe best we did not get Zion? We'll know in 5 years.

Tons of useful basketball left still.... a lost season would be riding vets to 35 wins and because we were 5 games out with 8 to play telling the fans "we were in it"

Plenty of time to let young guys play and build chemistry
