Our defense is putrid. Oh well.

He got the job yesterday.

I understand that but I don't like what I'm seeing so far.

--Jose still starting

--Jerian and KOQ benched (Seraphin the backup 2 off the bench..barf)

--even more triangle heavy

--defense just as bad as it's been

Only things that I've liked so far are keeping Melo in there when we fell behind early to get back in the game (Fisher has never done that) and Seraphin getting a long run.

There is no way Jose wouldn't be starting. KOQ maybe gone. Obviously two coaches have chosen not to play him. And Phil wanted the offense to be more triangle heavy. I think things will change but it won't be until after the break.
I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

When KP takes his time and squares up on his shot, he's a deadly shooter.

kristaps porzingis is doing work right now.
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 side transition D and 3 point shooting from Wizards have made it a huge scoring night for them.

KP isn't stepping out on dudly, and they are taking full advantage of that, on the other end dudly should have fouled out guarding KP

Cause he knows if he steps out on him Dudley will easily go around him to the hoop.

As I said I'm liking our consistent running of the Tri and offense tonight. Getting good open looks.
But it's the D I'm worried about.

Yeah. Sometimes he rushes his shot. Looks relaxed.

nyknickzingis wrote:I think we see a clear change in that Rambis is going to use the post, we're going to use size more so we'll be playing bigger lineups. KP didn't get any time at 5, DWill came in as a 3 for Melo. We were running the Triangle consistently.

On offense it didn't hurt us, it helped. We missed open 3's, and we make a few and we're at 56 points in that half. Anyway scored 50 even with only 2-10 from 3's..

On defense though, man Washington was able to run and able to shoot open 3's easily. If we don't play smaller to match up, we have to play closer to them on man D and allow penetration to the basket because they will blow by our guys. If you play big, you have to get back in transition. You have to give up something, and in today's NBA giving up the 3 is not the wise game plan. Play closer to your man, and give up the driving lane hoping Lopez or Porzingis will bail you out.

Very interesting change - definitely looks like they're going to go to bigger, post oriented play, with heavy dosage of Triangle. This is what I expected and I also didn't expect it to make us better right away.

Good points. Our defensive adjustment is pretty simple. Guards have to get back.

I've been saying that all year but 69 would get all over me for saying he's better than KOQ.

You just need to decide on one and play them real minutes.

KOQ is a better passer, outside jump shooter and rebounder.

Seraphin is a deadly low post scoring option.

They just need rhythm and minutes.


HOQ is a better passer, outside jump shooter and rebounder and he stinks at all of them but the passing where he sometimes does make some good passes but i've seen him try to get way to tricky with his passing and turn the ball over.

Gortat with a rather obvious moving pick on Calderon...no?
EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

I have a feeling you're not gonna be happy with much.
