Lance like Holiday has not found his shot in the preseason. His scoring is going to be important for the second unit, his defense is a given.
The Knicks are playing their rookies and end of bench guys but Kuz is not to be seen. I want to see him get more burn, not sure why Horn doesn't play him more.
Plumlee looks like he's playing football instead of bball out there. Not a real skilled bball player but physical and he hustles.
Agree with Breen and Clyde for the young guys to get this win would be a confidence boost.
Hornacek talked to CLee about being more aggressive looking for scoring opportunities. CLee says he will be more aggressive this Saturday.Wiz take a 53-46 lead into the locker room. Game was closer until the Wiz opened up the lead late in the second, Knicks could use more scoring from the 2 guard esp when the 2nd unit is in, Holiday was only 1-5 and CLee only took 3 shots.
DRose excused from Knicks practices and games until his trial is over. They expect the trial to end next week so he'll miss Sat. game. Hornacek is delaying putting in some plays until he returns so it is affecting the Knicks, thank God for BJ.Next game Saturday, DRose better be here on Saturday even if his trial isn't over. Game ball to Lance.
Yeah Kiya you would think that Kuz is on the cut list with the minutes he's getting but his contract says otherwise, 2yr/5.7M deal and you can't trade him until Dec. so he's making the roster. Horn is probably evaluating the young guys first and allowing Kuz to adjust to the speed and physicality of the NBA in scrimmages.
I agree DRose and Noah being out has been a blessing in disguise allowing some playing time for Jennings and the young guns. Have to take back what I said about Plumlee in SL that I didn't see why PJ needed to sign him to a guaranteed deal right after SL, worst case is we're on the hook for a million bucks or we find a rotation player for a couple of years on the cheap.
