Is this any kind of record?

Pelicans had 48 baskets, too...with 27 assists.

Said it earlier in the year...I don't see a consistent offensive philosophy so far.

Would love to know how our assist to basket ratio stands up to other teams.

I posted in another thread We are dead last whether or not you look at assists to baskets made OR attempted. That’s just a fact. Hopefully it improves

It’s iso heavy like we haven’t seen before. We are supposed to be holding players accountable for D but we experiment w defensive studs like Hezonja Burke mudiay and kanter and are worse as a team than under hornacek even though dot has been getting time this year and we have Mitch (both guys get after it)

We have a lot of work to do. Players coaches and FO

No we are letting them do that by not playing defense

Nobody in a knock uni is stopping Davis

So we just don’t play the game because they have the studs?

Another lead vaporized

Our D is worse than hornacek’s last year. That’s just a fact

I hope it changes but ur a cuckoo bird if u think fizz is doing well at the end of the game

Fiz is learning his team. The Knicks started 3 rookies. D was supposed to suck and it was supposed to be a tank line up. The rooks played great. Tim was great. No Mario was great. Fiz gets time with his team and they are better.

This is what I’m hoping for. I am seriously hoping he figures
Out how
To close a game as much or more so than who is in starting line up

I hate celts but they’re successful and their mantra is it’s not who starts but who
Finishes

Young players have to learn how to close out games. Playoff teams have to learn how to beat that team that always knocks them out. The Knicks are really young and were in this game until the final minute. I don't know if there is a coach that pushes this team over the top against veteran playoff talent. I think that is an unrealistic expectation.

A lot
Of what you say is true. But at the moment this coach has yet to call a play after a time out that I said awesome. All season

Fizz brings energy and I hope development but his game time decisions have plagued him

Fingers crossed he like the rest of the team accepts criticism and grows

That game was laughable bad.

Bad coaching, bad substitution, we basically handed them the game...

Are we loosing on purpose? It sure looked like fiz threw this game on purpose.

You’d have to be a idiot of a coach to let a aweful team like the Pels come back

Haha ahahaha baaaa hahaha

I mean Mudiay actually played a great game, why on earth do you pull him in the end... for our worst defensive guard in Burke.

Zion here we come

Fiz keep up the aweful coaching

The only way we lose to the pels with kp would be because he gets a game ending injury ... with proper substitution we should have won by 10 plus pts ... the pels are in worse shape then us they are BAD

Bro, the Pelicans are a playoff bubble team with a top 5 player in the league.

The Knicks aren’t a good team and are playing to develop young players. Not sure why that’s hard to grasp.

KP wouldn’t do much more for this team. Look around the league. The Knicks need more talent to compete. KP alone doeant do anything.

that kanter sht is reminding me MORE AND MORE of the gasol drama. We are getting destroyed on the boards, and you leave your best rebounder on the bench, like mitch was really doing something.

Cmon now, this is full tank mode, this is not how you coach to win games

Who CARES?

What the fck is Kanter going to do for the future of this team? Why do you care so much about a guy who will not be here next year? What important games are we winning right now?

This is madness. Just sit back, enjoy the young kid and the rebuild and stop going nuts after every game.

knicks 1248 doesnt believe in building through youth and the draft. He feels the veterans and a few extra wins will lure top free agents

More Kanter probably helps the tank. He's just so irredeemably bad on D. I'm willing to sacrafice some tank to get Mitchell robinson some burn. As far as PG, I'd say its wide open. Mudiay seems to be leading the pack, though he certainly doesn't stop me from looking for his replacement. If Frank doesn't start showing signs of improvement as a PG, it's time to groom him to be a SG who could guard 3 positions.

You need to stop the ball getting to Davis, and yes we have players that can do something about that.too bad they are planted on the bench watching trey burke stand and watch Holiday run circles around him

Fiz been subbing Frank and Burke in out on offensive and defensive possessions...he is doing his part...at some point the players have to make plays...the better players which were Davis and Holiday made the plays...

Yeah he started that after giving up a 10 point lead and going down 3. Already way too late. And subbing in and out doesn't work, you need to leave them in there. Knox did absolutely nothing in Q4 yet he was on the floor the whole time. That's poor coaching

Fiz said he wanted to see how the rooks responded in that situation. If the Knicks are trying to get home court in the east that is poor coaching. If the Knicks are scraping and focusing on development that is good coaching.

OK then he needs to start the three rookies along with Frank and Boobies the rest of the way. Non need to start anyone else at any point in the season. I am good with that.

Why do you insist on Frank starting when Mudiay has outplayed him since returning to the lineup? It's clear that your problem with Fiz is directly linked to Frank...
