Phil doesn't talk to his coaches, it's an assumed that his undermines them. He UNDERMINES them all the time!!

Maybe he should fire himself and get a Spurss exec in there to replace himself. Maybe they should play modern basketball. Shoot more threes and run pick and rolls like that spread offense that sounds so smart but it's really just 7 seconds or less Dantoni system that's been around for 20 years now.

According to some Ujiri is going to be the next Knicks coach. He is going to fit right in .

That spread offense you speak of has produced the last 3 champions...Spurs, Cavs and Warriors...

It's funny because LBJ, CURRY, KD, KYRIE, run a ton of ISO's but never get a bad rap

lowry and dd were developed that way. casey catered the entire offense to both of them and everyone else supports. it's been very successful in the regular season and it's had post season success as well but it's been a struggle to keep that regular season offense going in the post season. so 50/50 casey is back but everyone is on notice.

derozan in his presser - the first thing he said is he needs to become a better passer. so everyone is on the same page - everyone knows what we are going to try to do next season.

No you speak of the spread offense. It's actually Dantoni 7 seconds or less. Like I said in the initial post. Your tears run cold Stan

Cavs, Spurs etc aint jackin' up shots 7 seconds or less...They are running a 5-out or 4-out-1-in spread offense with some high PNR's for drive and kicks. I get it...when you struggle making an accurate point, resort to name callin'....Reminds me of my 8th graders...

With that said, think a Prez should go to his players and express his complaints, expectations and dissapointments. Phil should be able to tell Melo he holds the ball too long, doesnt pass enough, needs to play better defense, force shots and that he would be better off somewhere else. However, Imo, that should have been said privately. That has always been an unwritten rule in professional sports. Keep things inside the locker room. GM's and Presidents that have followed this custom have all been awarded respect.

I'm an eighth grade teacher stinky poo poo head.

And the 7 seconds or less offense called for the same thing you explain Ricky Retardo

Wow Pop is running the spread offense all these years coaching and we finally are calling what he does the spread offense. Awesome! Let's cup what Pop, Duncan and Tony Parker and Many did into the argument just to prove a point. Yeah they are running the spread. 4 guys out one guy in huh? 5 guys out? Oh wow. You gonna lie to that degree? Amazing job guys.

Spread/Spacing the floor is what the Spurs do and they have been doing since they beat the Heat in '14. I'm not talking about the Robinson/Duncan years....The spurs are not running a full-7 seconds or less D'Antoni offense. Shooting a bunch of 3's does not equate 7-seconds or less. Don Nelson's Warriors (RunTMC) and Rick Pitnio's Knicks where setting NBA records with 3 point attempts and makes when MDA was still playing ball overseas. The 7 seconds or less also involves dribble-drags, pass and chase, etc....

Clearly those terms are over your head being that you are confused by simple 4-out 1 in offensive set which is based on the Read and React motion offensive set and the Dribble Drive motion offense by Walberg. The combination of the two, along with some elements of MDA, is what most of the NBA is playing today with some other old school elements sprinkled in. I coach junior high and high school ball and I study this stuff. I have MDA's entire offense on a flash drive and have actually used some aspects of it for my teams. i can break it down further if need be. I'm at the basketball camps in the summer and convo with a bunch of coaches.

Lie?! I recommend you read and check out the vids I posted... The first video shows you how they began in a 4-OUT-1-In offensive set...

Also...Here's a direct quote from Pop....
"I still hate it," Popovich said. "I'll never embrace it. I don't think it's basketball. I think it's kind of like a circus sort of thing. Why don't we have a 5-point shot? A 7-point shot? You know, where does it stop, that sort of thing. But that's just me, that's just old-school. To a certain degree, you better embrace it or you're going to lose. And every time we've won a championship, the 3-point shot was a big part of it. Because it is so powerful and you've gotta be able to do it. And nobody does it better than Golden State, and you know where they're at. So it's important. You can't ignore it."
