What is the point of not starting them? Might as well let them gain experience
Frank frustrated me as a ball handler tonight. Seems like the kKnicks are putting KP in the Melo role lately. Frank needs to up the aggression on offense.
The offense is bogging down to isolations
Teams have figured out that they won't hit the cutters or off the ball guys on the wings and even if they do teams aren't afraid of CLee or McD going off
Offense has come down to us feeding Porzingis Beasley or Kanter and all 3 don't even look to pass once the ball is with them.
This is why I want Willy to get PT. Frank, Willy and KP need to be playing together through these losses to learn.
Hornachek hasn't made any adjustments he has seen the last four games like this and he isn't adjusting his offense. Teams have figured out we won't hit the cutter on the wings that we trust KP or Beasley or Kanter more. We really miss THJ in this regard. But as a coach Horny should have adjusted by now. Maybe more pick and rolls. Maybe more encouragement to the wings to cut harder and to tell the guards to trust the wings to make those shots.
The worst thing that has happened to this team is Beasley and Kanter going off. Now we are a 3 man ISO team. Nothing like seasons start.
Beasley has no business being in a NBA rotation of a playoff team.
Kanter should be more of a screen and roll and post sprinter.
KP needs to be told to cut down on the three point shots.
By the time the road games catch up with the home games maybe we will be so out of the playoffs that Horny will see the light and play Willy, Baker, Dotson, Frank. I have zero interest in being where I fear the Knicks are headed. 35 wins. Just out of the playoffs while favoring veteran players over draft picks. We are relying way too much on players who likely won't be here a year or two from now.
