That's why I covet Josh Jackson and De'Aaron Fox so much in the draft.

Like Jackson more than any PG. But its gonna take a lot more than one player.

If we have the opportunity to draft Jackson, I have a feeling rivers will be the starting PG next year. KP, willy, Jackson, Lee, rivers.

That's a lineup I could get behind... maybe Rose coming off the bench as 6th man?

Cosign. I like Fox the most among the point guard pool for his ability to play both ends and Jackson would fit perfectly with KP and Willy.

Someone please tell me why Melo is playing in this meaningless game and singlehandedly ruining our tank ambitions?

Wow. Have to wonder if Melo could put up better numbers and play with more rest/less minutes.

Ugh. Typical Knicks. Why are we playing Melo? We should have played him on the road in those games we knew we'd lose and rest him tonight. The Pistons are terrible. They turn the ball over every other possession. And Melo and KP are on fire. Get ready for 2-1 or 3-0 week that moves us from 4th to 9th in the standings.

Jackson or Fox are the guys on my wish list as well.

KP is better defender at the 4 than Melo.

Ok. Can you provide numbers to support that. Thought everyone already agreed KP is not good at 4 and Melo is better at 4?

Triangle looks great when players are talented and buy in play together
One of our best halves on offense all season and we ran lots of Triangle

This team ain't going anywhere until KP is used and plays like a star which he is still learning how to do.

Really? Definitely repost when you get a chance. That surprises me.

Playing closer to the basket tonight. Looking good. Now needs to add some assists. However, its still about all around team defense, and that was not our best half, in that regard.
