WOW... It was really difficult to confirm... took 20 games...


Yeah it was hard to assess because of the home/away splits

Lets give KP another chance, maybe he can turn this shet around


If you want to be an over .500 team, you really have to play at at least a .600 level when everyone is healthy to make up for the ground you lose when there are injuries. It's still early in the season and hard to judge the team.

We have lots of talent on the bench. Jack is a backup, and Frank isnt ready. An above avg PG can put them on the same page. Even shorthanded.
Yes but there are no starting PGs available at Jack prices and that's ok because he's serviceable.

We don't need an Elite PG to play at a good game. KP and THJr mask those deficiencies well at PG because of their overall play along with Kanter.

If you looks at our starting lineup thjr KP Kanter all are fine. But Lee and Thjr together is just an ok combo on the wings. Lee's production is up right now but I don't think it will be anywhere close when THjr starts stealing his shots. The back to back st this pace is not suitable for Lee with major mins. He needs to go to bench and we need to promote Mcbuckets

Didnt say "elite", above average. We havent had a 2 way PG who fit that definition in a long time, not in their prime.
Like who

Would have to think about it....

awwwwww

I say they lost the PG13 trade too. Set themselves back a decade.

Yes. I remember; and are you the one starting gamethreads titled after a selfish dumbass? Glad you have a team to root for instead of ****inuing your brilliant rants about the douche who's not here anymore. Do you even understand simple math professor? 2 games with only what we got for Melo and what happened? Oh, but you must have figured that out already, right?

Actually no, I have no idea what you are talking about? I started a game thread with "Melo" or "Selfish Dumbass" in the title? Well now that you mention it...

2 games with what we got for Melo? Before we get to the math Einstein help me understand what it means in English??

2 games with just what we got for Melo would have to be Kanter and McDermott playing 2 on 5 for 48 min

Or OKC just playing Melo 1 on 5 for 48 minutes? Oh wait, that's what they do anyway right?
Yeah, too bad Kanter and McBuckets don't have a better supporting cast... Maybe they should work on their Iso-games and play some real hero-ball! LOL

That would make as much sense as the 2 on 5 idea. At least you are consistent.

LOL. I'll give you some credit. I'm sure it's not easy being a Melo supporter on this board.

What we got from trading Melo -
Removed negativity from locker room
Removed ball stopping shot jacker from offense
Increased flow on offense
Increased team spirit
Competitive basketball with no drama

Kanter and Doug were throw ins to make salaries work.

Once Einstein gets upto speed we will have a conversation about it. I am looking forward to it.
May take him a year or three though.

Nope, but somebody's got to do it. And besides, it's really difficult when you have to deal with "facts" coming from Mr. levelheaded knicks fan like "lockeroom negativity" indexes and "team spirit" curve improvements. LMAO
