Knicks need two way shooters.
The problem is guys rarely have this combination of skills. And championship teams are soaking them up (Danny Green for example). But I think if we focus on this during the draft and FA, this team will be a lot better than they are today.
I love Danny Green! Would have loved him here, but obviously, he went to a better team.
We absolutely have to find players that can hit the open 3.
And more than 3pt shooting and defending - we just need guys that are skilled - that can pass the ball, that are smart players. I like Barrett, he seems smart and with some skills. Same for Knox, though he can be a knucklehead and make stupid plays.
I've been very disappointed with Wayne Ellington. I'd almost release him, but chances are he lands with an LA team and goes on a stupid tear shooting % wise.
And - we have to get more time for Trier & Dotson. They do seem to be some of the better shooters on the team.
