I disagree, Cole is worse than Shump. A better comparison might be he is a poor mans Toney Douglass.

Lame comparison. Cole had a good reason to defer to Lebron, Wade, Bosh. Shump was just scared to drive. TD isnt nearly as athletic as Cole. He's playing well in NO.


He has played better in NO than any time in his career. I don't trust him to keep up his still severely below average play. If you can't get numbers when no one is focusing on you I severely doubt you are going to play better in a bigger role surrounded by less talent.

Have you been watching this game? Cole is playing great D, finding teammates, and getting buckets.
I disagree that Cole is a below average player, Shump, JR, TD, Felton, didnt have the all around playoff game that Cole is having now their entire time in NY.

Felton was the MVP of the Boston series..I think you are overvaluing Norris Cole..

From the guy who consistently overrates Felton He had one difference making game in the Boston series, but IDK about MVP. My point was for all the comparisons to former Knicks, Cole has been more of a difference maker in the playoffs as a reserve than all of them.

I think this new wave of play in the NBA has screwed a lot of young bigs heads up..They want to be jump shooters..AD is catching the ball way too far away from the basket..Too many dribbles to get to a good spot for a shot..Ibaka is a jump shooter..I don't get it..

I think he has performed well. He came on in the 2nd half. He has about 6-8 baskets at the rim too.

Or .NO is horrible defending pick and roll..Anderson is always getting caught doubling the ball handler..

Probably a little of both, some of their passes really threaded the needle. I agree that Anderson has slept a few times.

He is more successful when he doesn't have to create..Run the pick and roll form him and have him play the low blocks..But yeah he came on strong...

Yeah, but he also has a mid range jumper. Hey, PHX Amar'e was a monster on offense not creating. I think Davis is a little more advance(well rounded) than Amar'e offensively at the same time in their NBA career.

jon barry doing color for the bucks and bulls-- i'm a fan.
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%

Not a fan of Barry's. Not watching yet. Maybe he is better prepared tonight.

Mayo suck as a traditional PG, but I could see him being solid in the triangle. I give him credit for getting back in shape this season and bouncing back.
