They're under-coached: Offensively, the system has its pluses, but, with this team anyway, is out of place and doesn't provide an inside game for 2 good inside scorers. The system is predictable because it's limited by its executors, and that shows every time we play a decent team unless we're hitting +40% from 3 on +20 attempts. Rotation too short, no set plays for dire need baskets, no cognition between players. Pathetic.
Mike Woodson isn't doing well defensively, either. Mastermind of the mismatching switch :whatever:
No PG: Last year it was a center, this year it's a general. We lay our aspirations on Davis who hasn't played for half a year, and is coming off an injury so debilitating that it effects/has effected people's/Davis' day to day living. Getting him for the minimum is a thumbs up move.
Believing that extending Billups' contract would put us in the running for Paul in a trade: This was absolute lunacy. It amazed me that so many were convinced it was in the bag. A wedding toast that drove people to absurdity.
We should have offered CB the mini MLE [given the circumstances were right] or something similar. Instead we use our only amnesty clause to waive a player we just payed almost $14M to make room for Chandler. One injury from feeling the horrid sting of that monumental **** up.
Not assassinating Jim Colan: I put the blame on myself.
Trading all our future assets for Carmelo Anthony: If you are a Melo Mole and are offended by this,
I do not give a ****. Not really a big fan of the guy, obviously. Why, you may ask? Because thus far he's done shit for this organization, bar muscle his way in to it on his terms. If you are a Melo Mole and are offended by this,
I do not give a ****. If he'd have come here on the terms that best suited the Knicks - our team - and signed as a free agent, I'd be loving him! We'd have a better team and be winning more games if he had. Simple, isn't it? But, if it hasn't become apparent to all sporting a brain, the Melo trade was about money and
"getting what I want" for 2 rich brats.
My adoration, or lack there of, for Melo is determined by our conference ranking. STAT is accountable too, but he came here as a free agent when times were tough. There in lies the disparity. If you are a Melo Mole and are offended by this,
I do not give a ****.
So far his Knick resum? doesn't afford him the start in the ASG, IMO.
If you are a Melo Mole and are offended by this,
I do not give a ****.
