To be fair, Holiday was playing against far better players. He had some moments, needs to find his shot. Not hating on Baker at all - I like his moxie. But I think Holiday has more defensive potential.

Holiday is longer and more athletic. He also has more experience. I think he needs to add some strength--doesn't seem to finish strong and loses balance.

Just wait until Noah is out there with Jennings. There is going to be a passion and toughness that we haven't had in years. They LOVE NY and want to be here and play with a chip on their shoulder.

Well you heard Jennings after they came back from commercial saying him and Noah will be the new Mason and Starks starting trouble on the court.

Heard that too and got real excited. It's an element that's been missing from the team since the late 90's.

Tokoto and Lou obviously. Everyone else earned a spot in my opinion

Yes. Please cut Lou even though he has a guaranteed deal. Horny said they would do it. Would much rather keep Plumlee, Ndour, Baker and obviously Randle.

I like this group you mentioned.

Have not seen much from Holiday...some good D, but right now he is hesitant on O.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

Lowkey big stat of the game: Melo was 4/5 from 3.

He hasn't had his 3pt shot for a few years because of the knee. If that's back... could be a very fun year.

I meant from a skills perspective. He can do a little more with the ball and is a stronger shooter. Just seems to fit a little better. Holiday is a SG/SF and Baker is more of a SG/PG type. Tho he's not a very good PG obviously but he can do a little of that.

Hes definitely going to get that 3 point shot all day with the pgs and passers we have around him

Yep. DRose and Jennings getting in the lane will have a nice target to kick out to

Yep but the only problem is you can't get away with anything close to the kind of stuff they got away with back then. The refs are way quick to call a tech just for talking too much smack to the other player.

Dare I say Plummlee reminds me of Dave Cowens?

He's my freaking favorite player right now.

The master blaster!!!!!
