Well, that's gonna happen. Only experience will get him past it.

Might as well let it happen during a game that will be decided by halftime.

Why Hezonja? He seems lost out there to me, on both ends.

"I like the idea of what they bring defensively," Fizdale said. "For the most part, all of those guys have been playing really well. I want to see them together. A lot of them are guys that we’re looking to move forward with in the future so let’s see how they play together.

"And I’d like to see how those other guys function off the bench. I challenged Enes to lead that group and make sure that they come in with the right mindset and take it to another level when they come in."

Thats what it's all about. Cant say with 100 percent certainly everyone will pan out but you need to give them as many oppurtunities as possible against top competiotion. I do feel our 2017 draft looks good. May not be flashy but I see them as important players in hopefully a long-term playoff condensing team

Yeah. We know he isn’t our stopper, but the guy has tried hard to be our first option and leader out there. Can’t take Timmy and Kanter both out of the lineup anyway.

Math.

Kanter is a lame duck Knick.

Fizdale has to try to make something of Hardaway.

Yup. Thats why draft picks are so damn important especially when they produce good results. Thankfully the days of throwing away picks like candy are gone

All ball hog guards are essentially the same - for this game I think Trier is more of an unknown and the Warriors will have game planned to shut down THJR. He isn't that good and when playing against really good defenses he will be reduced to pure chucking at 5-13 or 7-17 levels. I do give him credit for trying though, but his game is what it is and he isn't very high IQ to adjust within the low of a game. Of course it's possible he comes out and shoots 8-10 from the field with Klay Thompson draped allover him, anything is possible. Just not very likely.

For me it seems more of an accident rather than a result. His play has been poor.
