Felton with the hamstring, jr with the knee, nobody is able to beat any one off the dribble

game isn't over, but you can see the team is motivated...particularly melo and jr

They looked real flat to start, Felton and Prigs have done a good job so far.


Huh?

He isnt turning the ball over, couple of rebounds, assists.


His defense has been the problem for me

Gotcha, yeah its not getting any better.

He's also old and not really that good of a shooter. But that's what you get for $4M a year.

No one really talks about it too much but in classic Knicks fashion we overpaid for Felton. Coming off a horrible stretch in Denver and then Portland no one was rushing to sign him.

Of course we give him 3 years with a PLAYER option for a fourth. I'm pretty sure we had all the leverage and could have gotten him to sign for less years and money and a team option. sigh.

Felton is streaky. Its not a month into the season and he's already lost a step. Ray should be coming off the bench, but unless Murry cracks the rotation and goes on a tear, this is what we'll be seeing.

yeah man. Felton is what he is.

It's not his fault the Knicks are relying on him to be a starting caliber PG in a league full of: Westbrook, Rose, Rondo, CP3, Jrue Holliday, Teague, Lawson, etc. Felton's either one of the bottom 4 starting PGs in the league or one of the best backups.

We were supposed to dominate with the Amare that reeled off all those consecutive 30 pt games, the Melo that dominated in stretches last season and the Chandler who struck fear into Miami in the Finals.

Took a shot. Didn't work out. Nothing to really do about it except...

resign Melo to the max and try again

or

blow it all the F up.

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

WHY DO ALL OF MELO'S TOUCHES HAVE TO BE POST UPS???

They need to run some curls and other sets to get open shots in the flow.

It would be ballsy as hell and never happen but could we resign Melo and trade him?

This is such a lost cause that I am close to giving up on this team. It will never change as long as melo is here. The only thing that will change is we will be paying him 30mil+ for the privilege of watching this crap.

So the Knicks answer to all of this is to trade the one guy on the team who actually plays defense?

We're not even trying to get good shots. It's just dribbling up the court and chucking a 3.

The one easy way is to set a lot more picks for him but no one seems to want to do that like he will be insulted. All he needs is a little daylight.
