This is a great point. Some tweaks here and there and we are a much better team.

Sure, they have talent to win and come back - but this is not a good team. I hate the new NBA site - you can't just get a box score: http://www.nba.com/gametracker/#/20161213/NYKPHX/knicks/analysis We were down big until late in that game. Even last night - I don't know to what extent we won that as the Pacers lost the game. |

My arguement is really that it comes down to who is on the floor when we get big deficits. I would argue it is probably Joakim Noah. Right now he's around 400th in the league in plus/minus. Also this, The Knicks currently have net ratings of +3.8 when Hernangomez is on the floor and -4.9 without him—a difference of 8.7 points per 100 possessions. Most impressively, New York has defensive ratings of 100.5 with Hernangomez on the court and 110.5 without him. Though his playing time has been sporadic and limited, the Knicks are allowing 10.0 more points per 100 possessions when Hernangomez is off the court than when he is. #FreeWilly ¿ △ ?

All that matters is being in position to win at the end. If the Knicks are able to battle back in games that shows they have more potential to play better and it seems Lineups and Rotations are very important to the huge swings this team goes thru in games. The Knicks have been battling themselves in these games and if Jeff can get the right combination and rotation pattern this team can play much better. |

More often than not Willy has an immediate positive impact on the team. He's dynamic on both ends and he's getting better. |

I agree - but I think you both know Willy would be exposed somewhat if he were starting and playing more minutes. He brings energy and enthusiasm and smarts. If he doesn't start, then he should be the first player off the bench, and he should get regular opportunities to play. I get it if it's a match up or he has an off night - but he should get into every game. What's up Jeff? |

It's a tricky situation with Noah's minutes and pride and ego... maybe Jeff is handling the transition right... though I honestly feel it has cost them some games... ¿ △ ?
