Sloppiness... there were so many sloppy moves and terrible plays. IMO the key is for Rose to a) stay healthy and b) learn to know the team. When your PG finishes with a single assist and four turnovers you know there's a lot of room for improvement. But heck, I've always liked D-Rose and his aggressive playstyle.
D.Rose 30 minute performance in the Cavs game were like a player that missed training camp plus missed all the preseason games to show up with a SLOPPY individual shoot-first talent at the point .. the coach the coach the coach should have known better.
The Knicks 2nd quarter performance were played well having PG Jennings running the point.
The coach not giving a experience combo-guard Sasha any playing-time until garbage time gets all the credit for the Knicks 29 pt blowout LOSS.
The Knicks getting out rebounded 51-42 by Cavs plus the poor defensive-effort from the Knicks rotation were from a incompetent head-coach Horn .. the Knicks Lance Thomas 17 minutes at the PF position was a BUST move by a incompetent head coach, Lance Thomas poor performance n poor effort which let the Cavs shoot above 50% FG while Lance Thomas were on the court pretending to be a PF. Our Lance Thomas couldn't defend or score on opponents 6.9 Lebron, 6.8 Jefferson, 6.11 Frye, 6.10 Love, or 6.9 Thompson.
Last night, I watch the Philly 76ers vs (no-Durant) OKC Thunders to actually see Philly's headcoach Brett Brown substitute his young players in a 11 man rotation that showed to be 10 times better than our Knicks headcoach Horn did in the first game of the season.
The 76ers starter PG-Sergio Rodriguez played a outstanding game getting all his teammates involve in the offense to keep both teams changing the lead throughout all 4 quarters .. Great Game to watch .. Embiid has superstar potential to put the 76ers on the map again.
