I want mike Miller to work on getting these young guys to play that aggressive all game ... we’d have a lot more wins if the team gave a $hit all game long.

If only we played like we did in the 4th all game, we would have won in a blow out..

To me the culprits for this game is DSJr, Knox and Randle. A combination of the the 3 produces low bball IQ and low effort. He needs to fix those 3. The others are doing their jobs. Nobody is lighting it up but getting those 3 right would produce better results

Anyone still a buyer for Malcolm at $20M per? I’ve only seen him twice this year and he hasn’t really stood out.

DSJr played well, did a great job setting up teammates. Forced some turnovers. Helped chip away at the lead. Frank played most of the second half. Played well. PG wasnt an issue last night. All the bricking was.

I would have liked him on the roster, but it was the pick the pacers had to give up for him, not so much the salary (remember the cap goes up 10% in 2021). Also he apparently has injury concerns going back years (it’s why he fell in the draft), not sure what the issue is though.

He has a foot injury. I think he had a bone fused in one of his feet. I remember hearing Kevin O’Conner saying scouts looked at it like a time bomb that would eventually blow up.

This should be enough of an issue to give the Knicks pause, nevermind his progress. Been an issue since day one. Dont know Frank's medical history, but I wonder if the lack of streetball experience in his resume has somerhing to do with it?

Frank came into the league only being able to go mostly north and south, The NBA is an even faster game than he was used to. Looks like Frank has been trying to catch up ever since. A few more seasons in Europe probably would have been a better idea.
