My man might be a lot of things, but he ain't poor. I'm pretty certain that this will be his last big paycheck tho.

Yes after 10 game the numbers and eye test all fall into line and this seems about right. Knicks have 3 guys who all share 1st option and are having some positive 3pt shooting regression too. Obi and cam have been nice surprises and what they are doing well seems pretty sustainable. Getting grimes healthy will be a boost too and will eliminate Fournier’s presence most likely. IQs impact is there like always but I want to see him take a step offensively. Rose is either getting back into rhythm or running on fumes and Quickley needs to be the guy who can step up next.

5-5 with Cam and Obi being your best 3pt shooters. Who had that on their bingo card?

On pace for 41 wins as I predicted.

Really hoping for a trade at some point that puts us at that next tier of 45-50 wins.

The team looks better with Cam starting. It will be interesting to see if we can go 6-4 or 7-3 over the next 10 games.
Trust the Process

Thib showing flex. Lets just say we fans did not see this coming. Not after last season and preseaon.
That he moved EF out of line up.

Tasked with integrating Brunson who is adapting nicely. EF is victim of circumstance in part. His game does not work with JB.
Randle is not super Jules but his attitude is better. Wolves dared him to hit the three, he did. Takes what defense gives him.
Same with Celtics. They been shooting poorly and we gave them that. They executed and beat us.

We a .500 teams. As sergio said, maybe a trade occurs where we shed unimportant assets for instant infusion. We are improved and maybe enough we have outgrown Drose and maybe moved to a contender for pick or time patient prospect not in that teams timeline.

Leon and Co. are not starphuching as evident by DM pass. Not that he was not worth it, but obviously they want to keep developing RJ and value in the picks moving forward. Cavs did that deal wihtout messing their front line future. They have the pieces in place AFTER getting DM. We are not in that position.

Interesting that our top 5 +/- guys all give 100% effort every second they are on the court. Also interesting that Fournier has looked disinterested and is a -40

Randle's -13, yeah he is very bad at defense. 3rd year with the same coach so its a real WTF

Start the top five and only sub in Rose and RJ.
Regroup after another 10.

After the first couple of games RJ looks very improved. And it’s not a coincidence he’s looked better since Cam (and grimes) took Fournier’s place and take pressure off RJ defensively.
