Calls no real plays and thinks he can just roll the ball on the court. putting aside the "star" characterization, Mitch made most of his progress last year when Deandre was on the team. At the moment i suppose his mentor is Taj but i always thought of him more as a 4, and not a tutor for a shot blocking type Mitch also credited his decreased fouls last year with tips he learned from Kerry Kittles -- who wasn't affiliated with the team. I don't mind if Fizz benches him, but there has to be a REAL plan for development. He was drafted as the epitome of a development project and to date his best development has come from outside the CS (5)(5)

That's the case for knox as well, and if frank is the epitome of the knicks development, then we should be focus on ready made players, like we did in the 90's ES

Calls no real plays and thinks he can just roll the ball on the court. Building a team through FA is a losing proposition in a salary capped league UNLESS you can land bons fide superstars worth more than their MAX or SUPERMAX price tag. With FA you pay market value (generally speaking) and if anything a losing franchise has to pay a premium to get a player to join We need to draft and develop. If we're not doing that well, the people in charge of drafting and developing need to go (5)(5)

Calls no real plays and thinks he can just roll the ball on the court. The core of that was Ewing, Oak (Trade from drafted Cartright), Starks and Mase, who were developed FA's, and H20 a free agent. The team was build off of ewing. Oak became Camby, Starks was used in Spree trade, and Mase for LJ which in part was us taking LJ monster contract. |

Fiz hasn't coached any stars since he's been in NY... |

Calls no real plays and thinks he can just roll the ball on the court. No star FA has ever signed with knicks, not even in the 90's...mostly every good player came via trade The F/O has had more young players than any front office the knicks have had PERIOD, and they are all well below avg, and not taking any major steps Mills has assembled not 1 but 2 rosters that produce 17 win season in a 4 yr span. He has assembled rosters that have shattered every losing record (most overall losses in a row, most home losses in a row, most road losses in a row) in knicks 60+ yr history.. He hired an assistant coach to be his head coach, traded for draft bust and didn't even develop them, hired scott perry (a yes man) who has less impact around the league then him, he kept everyone on the coaching staff as if they did a good job last season Between himself, Perry and Fiz(who all supposed to have great relationship with players around the league),couldn't convince a single star to here them out, and backed up rinks truck, to signed role player. this franchise has the worst record in the entire NBA since he took over Your trying to justify his plan or act like he knows what's best for this franchise..

Gasol was already a great player and he got his bling bc of Leonard and Nick Nurse’s coaching. prior regime certainly started it, but i think it's a completely legitimate view to think KP saw things going from bad to worse. The new regime talked one thing (2-way players who pass) and did another (e.g., Trier explicitly allowed to hold the ball more; no 2-way; worse D and passing than Hornacek era) At some point this FO and this CS have to own their ****; they can't blame Phil for everything forever (5)(5)

Just read my posts and you'll see i'm one of Mill's and Perry's biggest critics What i was saying is that the idea of building a team through FA is highly suspect when your team stinks (5)(5)
