Okay folks here`s something I have noticed from watching the Knicks all season long.
Many posters on this forum are saying that Mozgov isn`t contributing much and I would have to agree but the fact that he doesn`t score is because Raymond Felton refuses to use the pick and roll with him.
During every single game of the season Mozgov has run the pick and roll time and time again. It always ends with him moving to the basket unguarded and able to get a dunk or easy layup.
The problem is that Felton never passes him the damn ball, he seems to be incapable of running the pick and roll. During the FIBA world championships Mozgov was excellent at the pick and roll he`s brilliant at it, it`s one of his strengths but Felton always refuses the pass.
Honestly, the next time that you watch a Knicks game, perhaps tonight, watch how many times Moxgov plays the pick and roll, finds himself unguarded as he rolls to the basket only to have Felton ignore him. If Felton could run the pick and roll I think that Moz could be a good scorer. As it is he is forced to take jump shots which just isn`t his game.
What do you guys think? Has anyone else noticed that during games?
