sooner or later philly is gonna be good. They are collecting a bunch of good young athletic talent and plenty of draft picks. Once they get some veterans they could be dangerous in a couple years
It would take a lot of patience to be a fan of theirs. Bobby Marks said 3-4 years before he sees them competing for a playoff spot. Also, I can't imagine high quality vets signing there unless there are major changes.

i agree it sucks to be a philly fan right now. But eventually they will have a lot of talent but it will take a few more years

KP has hit two 3P shots tonight. That's the gold standard he's looking to average. Only 20 players did that last season in entire NBA . . . and only one of them was a C or PF (Ryan Anderson). If KP gets to that level, it causes serious grief for opposing defenses . . .

But they have so many good young players and draft picks that they should just trade for a couple of vets who are under contract for 2/3 more years.

But what's the deal with Afflalo averaging less the one free throw per game (?) That has to be a symptom of something not right . . .


Called being a jump shooter. He has not gone to the basket much.

Not sure his elevation is totally back, although I didn't watch him much last year, so I don't have a good idea of his game.

the trajectory on his shot tells me he has never had much lift in the first place.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

On the other hand, KP is only shooting 42% so far. That would have been the absolute worst in NBA last season by far (the worst PF shooting percentage was 46%).
