Except the Knicks were without Hardaway and KP was off a lot of the game. The Bulls were at home. Bad or not, they were an NBA team at home that was trying to win.
Their problem is starting games. They've dug in several times, but sometimes too late. It's optimistic that these young players are on teams that don't give up.
Ok, you'd tank. So you think a ROOKIE is gonna get those other players to compete harder in year one? Year two? Even year three? It's more important that this team doesn't give up and gets more familiar with each other.
Bingo! Thanks for asking.... I think Tatum leads NBA in 3-point shooting. BOS not even missing GH.
KP needs talent around him. To win a title, we need multiple stars.... BOS, MIl, PHI are formidable foes and will be for years to come.
Only way the KP era has hope is to snag another lottery stud, along with a trade or free agent signing for another stud. Otherwise, KP walks as a free agent.
I don?t want quit. I want them to fight. Did they fight tonight? Nope. I?m more pissed they fought for 8 minutes instead off buzzer to buzzer.
I prefer a game like today, where the kids showed flashes and didn?t give
Up, than I was the last win when kids played poorly but vets carried the day.
Knicks have no chance this year. So why focus on short term? Focus on the long term.
This ship is heading in the right direction. Don?t derail it. Go get a top 5 pick.... or, watch the Curry and westbrook type go to another team while we walk away with another Hill or Shump Chump.
Now, had we went and got a Russell or Bledsoe and fully committed to this season.... I would care more.
