I dont know why Kanter is not shooting his mid range???? but thats ok to--keep pouring in 16-12 and keeping KP 1-1. Mcdermott--man a lot to like there! as well.

Dude definitely has a good stroke from mid range. Clear as day seeing him play over the years. Sometimes it's more about watching a guy play than looking at pie charts and bar graphs.. This guy actually has 3-pt range to boot. I've seen it.. He's had PLENTY of opportunities to pop open jumpers, but he's actually deferring out there to a degree, really looks cognizant of trying to get the ball to KP...This guy is a VERY GOOD player. As skilled a big man pound for pound as you're gonna find.. He's as big a LOCK for 20/10 as any big man I've ever seen play the game -- all he needs is enough PT and shot attempts, and again, he doesn't need 20+ shots (KP's our headline player now and I'm ok with him getting that) but he should be getting at least 15. KP close to 20, then Kanter & THJ in the 15-18 range, with McDermott and Willy getting double-digit attempts themselves -- that would be my game plan every night. That would be a well-balanced, pretty efficient attack (hopefully Timmy can continue to evolve and become more efficient and less of a gunner eventually).. I was all over trading for Kanter back when he wanted out of Utah and came on here and talked about it a lot at the time. Very glad he's here. We're lucky to have him. And yes, I think we did quite well for ourselves with this trade. Thumbs up! Gotta figure out how to get Doug more involved in the attack out there now. |

Him taking bad 3's early in shot clock and missing most of them. Him not running the offense just to ISO Melo. Him giving up on defense. He is like glue to an offense. No one moves once he gets the ball until they are running back on defense after he bricks the shot. KP is getting the ball is the same position as Melo did but the Knicks are still able to play as a team with off ball movement and unselfish passing. |
