so its still the triangle but LESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS stagnant. very free flowing...no oneholds the ball more than 2 secs..(unless its melo)
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Rose is quick as hell to get up the floor. Already see some reckless shots on drives and those jump passes though. Should be interesting.

KP has already altered a ton of shots down low. This game would be a blow out without his D.

The dumbest foul i think i'll never understand why it's a foul is when a player with the ball can jump into his defender and get the foul called......dumbest foul ever. I can understand if the defender goes up to block his shot and comes down into the guy with the ball but actually jumping into the defender is just stupid. It just got called on KP is why i'm bringing it up and that was just horrible.

Some really nice ball movement on that last set by the Knicks. DRose missing a lot of wide open shooters... or getting them the ball late or out of rhythm. Hopefully that's something that'll come with familiarity.

Ohhhhh gosh are we about to go through another year of gameday threads of everyone arguing about what's the triangle and how much triangle are we playing?? I sure hope not.

Observations so far:

1) Harden playing the point for Pringles is a joke

2) KOQ has lost a lot of weight.

3) Knicks are setting some on ball screens in half court

4) Rose playing out of control trying to do too much

5) KP6's length and added strength will cause opponents problems on the interior

6) We are no longer a defensive liability in the backourt like last year

kp6 has the greatest floor impact on defense. rose chronically leaving his feet to pass. one terrible shot and counting. rose not finishing at the rim.
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%

No one looking to get KP going, lots of open looks.

Courtney Lee looks great out there. Defense, offense. Fits seamlessly already.
