SMC Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Porzinbagger!! This team, minus Caledron every night and Anthony most nights, is a really fun bunch of guys to watch. This. Big win. 4-4 after playing 7 playoff teams is impressive. Porzingis with an off night, but he still dunked on 4 people's heads, including a teammate. Knicks got lucky on Melo's trippletravelsteppingoutofbounds but the Knicks have been burned by crappy refs before so it's good to be on the other end of it.

SMC Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 On the Lance-KP 4th quarter, I agree with Fisher using Lance most of the 4th BUT, I think Fisher made a mistake with sticking with Lance in the last minute up 106-101 after Lance's baby Dream Shake basket. At that point the Knicks know they're probably getting 2 more possessions and Melo is going to be the main person handling the ball. That means the Knicks need their best rebounders in the game to keep the possessions alive to kill the clock. That's why KP needs to be in the game. Fisher got lucky because, as expected, Melo bricked and the Knicks couldn't get the offensive board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 En fuego Going to the Garden on Friday, haven't been this excited to see a Knicks team in quite a while. From the standpoint of upside and young players contributing. Win or lose I'll have a good time watching some of these young players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Porzingis continuing to foul ALOT Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Which he's acknowledged. He still has to learn how to defend some of these big guys who are quicker than he's used to, but that's 100% teachable, for someone who isn't a dumbass, like STAT (love the guy though). Porzingod's game is more advanced that I could have hoped for at this point, the Knicks may have legit lucked out on a perennial all-star if he stays healthy.

RutgersJetFan Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Watching Calderon try to run a pick and roll makes me think of Steve Nash, and how he used to make it look like the most effortless play. Because Calderon is the exact opposite of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Sh*tty loss, but that was not only a icy shot by Porzingod, but he was supposed to screen for Melo and broke up the play when Zeller moved off him. Love this kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Tough loss, but KP was great. That was a money shot even though it was a .01 second late. Knicks will battle for playoff. KP is a star in the making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 The only reason I want to make the playoffs is so the Knicks don't give up a lottery pick, but this season is about developing KP and Grant. They're accomplishing that thus far and staying competitive, which is a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're accomplishing that thus far and staying competitive, which is a plus. They just need to be careful with all this playing time because of that body. 25-30 minutes per is fine right now, but a NBA season gets pretty grueling once you pass 60 games or so. All rookies go through it, but for a dude his height you have to be extra careful. He hasn't nearly grown into his body yet, you have to ease him into going up and down the court 82 nights a year at his height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP played poorly yesterday, but I think Fisher purposely kept him at only 20 minutes so he could play effectively in today's game, which he did. They have to keep him at that 20-25 minute mark.
