The secret sauce is always on deck....He's pretty much lame-duck status with a new Prez coming in. He's coaching for a future job and from his Millers perspective, I get it. But from a Knicks fan perspective, its frustrating watching our future take a back seat to a coach's agenda... |

Coach being judged on wins/losses or development or both? Seems like all of the above to me. Or should be Official sponsor of the PURE KNICKS LOVE Program

Players have to earn their minutes, and Miller doesnt have the time to wait on young players to contribute. |

I think I know what needs to be said next. After our "development" coach taught our young players the losing ways with an atrocious record, Miller comes in and gets the team back to winning(I know 13-20 is not super but compared with 4-20 that is truly outstanding. So teaching the youngins how to win , what basketball can be with proper X and 0's. We are still not happy and it's probably because our only criteria to judge development is the amount of minutes. There is probably more to that

One game he gave all the guys participation trophy playing time. Might be to showcase a bit? Agents might be shopping them if knicks want to waive them.
What’s said behind closed doors stays behind them. Lame ducks? MIller showed his chops which is why he got the gig. He has done well by most standards. If Leon wants development and the kids play then the kids play. If miller was in the midst of a playoff run they’d let him. But he is not. Likley knicks have it in their minds they are bringing in a new coach regardless and caveat might keep Miller. Fact is Miller might leave on his own as he has done well and might have opportunities. Perry is a pro and likely to get recommended for other gigs. Maybe not as a GM as there are few of those open. This guy just seems To be riding on the wrong coat tails at times. Development? It has many faces. When the team is struggling its easy to suggest alternatives. Justification? “It can’t hurt”! Winds of change will be blowing soon enough. |

Your hateburgers are still being served, with your secret hate sauce. I like Miller but i do think there is something fishy going on. Yes it's awesome if the coach is clear in his expectations,e.g., earn minutes by X [playing D, good screens, taking care of the ball whatever] but how does that dovetail with DSJ getting any minutes whatsoever, or with Julius and his spinovers Again i like Miller but also feel this team is, and has been, rudderless for 2 years (5)(5)

I have read that players need to earn minutes. Payton has. Fact is Payton likely not here next year and we have to make choices on either or both of Frank/Dennis.
Dennis has not earned it but did by getting drafted and in spots shown the talent. Not fair but we have no core at certain positions and until that is established the potential card still gets played. IM surprised Trier is still on the roster. For all we know he either is either waived or back in the rotation. Rudderless? I agree. I think Randle, like Morris and Hardaway jr. are in unnatural positions. Need talent and put players in the position to succeed. Randle "Spinovers" does not mean he lacks talent, but he can't be our closer. |

Your hateburgers are still being served, with your secret hate sauce. +1 And the only actual win streak in recent memory coupled with actually playing the closest thing we've seen to Chris Smith, so to speak. In a freak bench move for this franchise, I really hope Miller stays on the bench in some capacity. Stability has to start somewhere beyond H20. |
