Game thread: New York Knicks vs Sacramento Kings 6:00 11/3/2019 [Game #7]

Starting Portis did literally nothing to space the floor for Randle. If MRob can by some miracle cut down on his fouls, he needs to start.

Fans booing after Hield cans a wide open 3, Fiz calls a timeout. SAC up 15-9.

That TO Fiz called didn't help, now Bjelica hits a wide open corner 3. I'm sure Fiz said something about covering shooters after that last TO.

Coach Walton knows this game has his job in jeopardy !!!
Walton is depending on Fox dynamic performance to win this game for him

This one might get out of hand quick. Our guys just look bad.

[htr10]

RJ going for the old DeAndre Jordan standard of having a FG% higher than your FT%.

[htr10]

Lucky to only be trailing by 9 after an ugly 1st quarter effort.

Classic Fizdale. Trier doesn’t play for 3 games, now he’s getting early 2nd quarter minutes.

I think constant tinkering with lineup is a no-no in general but really one of the problems starting Knits is due to our overall slow starts in the 1st qrt. There's a history here and it has to do with dumbing down the offense and making it simple mistake free for him.

I believe Fiz called himself trying to match their size/athleticism by starting Portis and this is a classic case of coaching by feel(which I despise)

[htr10]

How are you supposed to win in the NBA in 2019 without a ball handler who can break down the defense?

I was just getting ready to point this out, you beat me to it. We're seeing similar

I'd like to point out NOBODY belly ached his absence though(rolling eyes)

[htr10]

I’m not sure what any of our guys are trying to do out there at either end of the floor.

[htr10]

Kings have 40 points and we’re not even at the 8 minute mark of the 2nd quarter. We’re facing a bottom feeder in our house. Just a miserable showing so far.

40-23. Knicks offense just standing around watching either Portis, Randle, or Morris go ISO, only to chuck up a long, contested 2 point shot.

Knicks problem simple: either get a real GM/HC or get a PG. You can’t win when you have a lousy Owner/GM/HC trio, and you’ll never amount to anything without a PG.

Ever since mid 90s, KNicks haven’t had a PG worth anything. Ergo, why they’ve sucked for 20 years.

[Broadway]

Have they shown a camera shot of Steve Mills and Scott Perry yet?

I'm viewing the Cowtown feed

7 minute before halftime Knicks down by 20 .. 43-23 .. bye bye Fizdale !!!
