The knicks last season were last in the league in shots near the basket (0-3 feet). This season they are once again last in the league. This is a terrible stat. How did phil address this? Is this all on the players? Is it partly the offense that we are running?

Grant and Afflalo were suppose to help change this but so far, its not happening. Are we settling for too many shots that we should not be?

We really improved the front line but you can't win in this league with bad guards and without penetration. Phil had a good offseason but this is not good. It has to change.

Last in the league in 0-3 attempts.

First in the league in 10-16 attempts.

Afflalo looks terrible and I was not happy at all about his signing.

Everyone was crowning Grant as the next Mike Conley. I am still not convinced that he will be a better player than Charlie Ward.

When is the next time that Phil talks with the media?

so here is what phil is thinking ....

No fast break points either. We have to work for every point and shoot lights out to score points. Not an easy system!

good call. The knicks are LAST in the league at fast break points at a terrible 7.6 per.

Guess who was the worst team last year? Da Knicks!

Step away from the keyboard, go out, have a few beers, never know where it might lead.

Might be a lubrication thing. More foreplay could help.

Ah yes... keyboard play, the most potent aphrodisiac there is.

Papabear Says

You need to work it first then go deep.Now if the team as a whole is kind of short they never will go deep. You must have at least 11 inches. If you don't have that then you can't go deep. lol

Rockets defensive pressure was very good and we don't have a great ball handling PG that can beat pressure and create. Jerian isn't there yet if he will ever be that guy. Until Phil can solve that and add an elite athletic SG we will always be missing something from this offense. It's not like you can just magically create those players.

much more picks and much less triangle may help, no? Calderon can't even beat the pressure to get it into the post to kick off the triangle.
