With this motion/ball movement offense, we are gonna have alot of turnovers, because alot of people touch the rock.

if the ball was in Steph's hands more, there would be less turnovers.

That is one of the drawbacks of this kind of offense, until guys get acclimated.

^ Ya....and if the ball was in Steph's hands for 40 mins a game can you guess what would happen?


NOTHING --

no ball movement.

let it go killa.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

I don't mind the ball movement at all...I just despise the phuckedup rotations that I have seen from Brown....He is a hell of a coach, so I do expect him to figure it out..

I think the turnovers will decrease once brown has installed an offense, which officialy he hasn't done yet.

The high TO rate is going to be part of the Knicks immediate future.

This is a young team with a lot of guys that have never played together. If LB can get them to consistently play hard and learn over time I'll be happy. But I expect to continue to see a lot of incohisiveness and TOs on offense for a while.

hey guys dont forget this is preseason and we are not the only team who has 30 turnovers
It's funny how this whole world is based on one dummy controlling another,and the leader dummy was chosen by a whole bunch of dummies.

you would think these guys would have figured out the basics of passing the basketball in high school.

If the defense was being played against HS kids their passing would be great. They are passing against pro players - a little tougher.

But passing is a skill that requires coordination between teammates - which takes practice with team mates. WHich is why teams that play together pass better then teams that don't. Have you noticed what a disadvantage NBA star players are under at international competitions when they play against teams that have played together for years.

yes. but the last few seasons, I've watched other teams be able to pass & move the ball and know what to do and I've had to watch the knicks not be able to move the ball and generally look pretty dumb.

Regardless of playing together, there is something intrinsic to a player and whether they can play, pass & move the ball

Playing together means everything. Look at Scaremento. The whole damn team is passing and cutting and backdooring, they have been doing it together for so long now.
