They're starting to believe in themselves as a team. Didnt let Hield's 3 pt barrage get in their heads, kept chipping away at the lead.Hope Smith jr can come back and keep the momentum going Learn from Payton, and keep him from getting worn down. Will be surprised if Frank isnt moved by the first trade deadline for more shooting.
I couldn't agree more. I might extend that to the fan base who knew with predictable certainty that Fizdale's moves would end in catastrophe.
Miller's team doesn't let the score get them down. They played like the GS Warriors played us a few nights ago - with pride and determination.
It's a breath of fresh air.
While I don't think anyone is untouchable, I would be surprised if Frank is moved. The combination of Frank and Payton is paying dividends and neither player is fully up to speed - Frank in a funk, Payton is coming back. For the Knicks, in a year when winning anything important is not in the cards, what a luxury to have two high ceiling PGs developing under Miller. Sit back and watch it play out. I think we are in for a treat.
