We won't lose this game because of a lack of defense.

I'm Sorry but signing Thanasis to a 10 day is utterly ridiculous. He's not even going to play over Vujacic. When everyone is healthy Thanasis goes back to the d league.

The only explanation is there will be a trade announced tomorrow or the next few days.

Folks. Just be patient. Don't expect any big changes or upgrades at the deadline. This team isn't good enough to go trade for free agents who might leave anyway
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

he may have been able to help last night. LT was the only guy who had any success with Demar. AA really struggled when on him.

Interesting...any thoughts on why?

Nice gesture - he's put the time in, so it sends a good message to our dleague players

I agree.

I'm actually kind of excited about Thanasis getting a look. He's got so much energy and defensive effort that I think he fits in perfectly with this group. We actually have portions of each game where I think we could used another Plus Defender on the floor.

Maybe it is a good idea to keep thenasty around to back up Aflalo at the SG position. He is not a good shooter, but he hustles and defends. A second lineup of Calderon, thenasty, Williams, Lance, and KO can be solid. Just saying
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

They say that Thanasis was wowing the team in warmup with his 3 point shooting from the corners. Really!

I read that Hahn said it on MSG. Rambis told Thanasis to stop and save it for the game.
