[kingfoamnyc]

NY brings out the best/worst in everyone who comes to town.

One of the reasons why dweebs should understand were the basketball mecca.

Dope this made my day

Hornacek says Knicks offense will speed it up and spread the court a little more. No more triangle.

Quotes like this are all the proof we need to know that Phil really was trying to implement the triangle, even after Hornacek brushed it off. Ill be looking forward to those changes. I know for certain Melo & KP and plenty other players didnt really feel the triangle

There’s not a high bar set for GOAT Knicks executive

“We got tangled up and I tried to get untangled from him,” Randolph said. “I turned around and he was coming at my face. The first thing I could think of is, ‘What is going on?’ It was an intense game. I just told him, ‘You got a problem.’ There is no point in talking here. It’s a basketball game at the end of the day.”

“The nights and days following that incident I had Latvian fans, Turkish fans and people from all over, people in New York, leaving comments on my page calling me the ‘N-word,’ ” the 28-year-old Randolph said. “They were saying I was trash and that if I come to New York they would kill me. It was pretty interesting. I didn’t respond to anybody or waste my energy on stuff like that.”

1) Do you think coach start Willy and KOQ/Noah as back up, or does Noah start again?

2) Are we underestimating a lineup of Willy-KP-Melo-THJR ?

 

[doxen5703]

What is that?

2) Are we underestimating a lineup of Willy-KP-Melo-THJR ?

1. Noah needs to come off the bench until he shows he’s completely healthy and able to help us win games (that Noah isn’t coming back I don’t think).

2. I wouldn’t call it underestimating, just not hyped up on it. Personally, I see some defensive problems that would kill us every night.

 

[ballinsam23]

if thats the lineup we go with frank has to be the starter

 

[nick.]

Frank-Timb-Melo-Porzingis-Willy might be fun

 

[floodarea]

Frank-Timb-Melo-Porzingis-Willy might be fun

That's the lineup 2K has from the gate and its a pretty fun lineup but I'd like rather have Timmy come off the bench personally

 

[ballinsam23]

Frank-Timb-Melo-Porzingis-Willy might be fun

One of the few things i'm looking forward to this season is watching that lineup.

[doxen5703]

O’Quinn looking like Kimbo Slice.

 

[floodarea]

Is that Melo next to KOQ?
