Why are you pushing this? Do you really think that's in the best long term interests of the team???

I can't stand watching horrible play. And yeah, when they start playing I want the Knicks to win. They obviously are trying to win.

Also, there's a thing called accountability - you reward the guys who hustle and play hard. It's part of building a culture.

Also, it's just kind of undeniable that Lance and Melo are a better defensive pair than Melo and KP.

I'm talking about the notion that Lance should start over KP. IMO it's not about what is best for this season anymore. Not from my perspective. We need to develop KP and our younger players and that will help make for a better future.

As for the Loss I think they fought hard but I'm glad they lost. Another Lottery Ball gets its wings! They really are meaningless wins at this point IMO.

This. Maybe is this was a month ago i would feel differently but now its all about playing the kids and our draft pick which hopefully gets close to top 5

That's all I'm saying. This team had a chance to make this a meaningful season but at this point it's too late. I'm mentally looking past this season already.

I think it is what is best for the team. Why not teach guys to play hard and good d? Maybe next year Melo becomes the sixth man but for now I think this is the way to go. Also, Lance and Melo aren't going anywhere.

KP is the future and anything that interferes with his development is bad IMO. I like LT just fine but I'm not playing him ahead of KP.

Melo and LT being here in the future doesn't mean we should be stunting KP's growth just cuz they're here. We can go higher with an improved KP, Willy and a higher Lotto pick.

I think KP goes to sixth man. Heals his injuries and hopefully gets a little less banged up. He still gets plenty of minutes and gets to run a bit with the second unit. KP and Melo both need to play the four and when they do they need another really good defender on the court with them. Winning shouldn't stunt anyone's development and KP is getting banged up as it is.

WINNING? See that's where we are really apart on our views. I'm done with this idea of winning games even if the team is still trying to win. They just squeaked by a weak Sixers team and came up just short against the Raps minus Lowry. What's the point of wins at this stage?

I want KP and the kids to play. Play and learn. Whether they win doesn't matter to me at this point in the season. Losing didn't stop Curry and Klay from developing and eventually learning how to win.
