SMC Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The no-tank tank is working perfectly. Knox might win EC rookie of the month, which would be a nice turnaround after a bad November. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nets made the worst trade in the history of sports and are currently light years ahead of the Knicks. Is Zion a franchise saver? I have no idea. But the Knicks somehow continue to get worse. Knox is still a kid but he's got a ton of bad habits and seemingly only cares about scoring. I dont think the coach matters all that much but Fizdale is not the guy.

I dont think the coach matters all that much but Fizdale is not the guy. The Knicks are without their franchise player and are in no-tank tank mode. Nets are desperately trying to make the playoffs. Knicks are also far younger than Nets. Completely different situations. Plus, no Knicks fan cares about the Nets, so why bring them up? As you said, Knox is a kid, end of story. A lot of kids have bad habits. As to Fiz, who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philc1 Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Knox = Rasheed Wallace minus the crazy knicks should trade Porzingis now before he demands a trade next summer. Maybe they can swap with the Pelicans for Anthony Davis since he wants to leave New Orleans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That article is tedious Vermilion is a very very small very very white town on the outskirts of the outskirts of Cleveland. The closest thing to a famous person those rubes ever glimpsed was when my little brother won Jeopardy seven times. Enter Lavar Ball. That could have gone real well or real bad but disappointingly it apparently just went. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I caught some of Duke v Pitt the other night and it was my first time catching Zion. Man, he is something. There are years where the #1 is clear and years where it's not, and at the very least the Knicks chose a good year to be in the running for 1.

Well, that's the idea. It's just shame they had to change the lottery rules right when the Knicks seemed to finally realize the benefits of tanking. They have almost as big a chance at the 5th pick as they do at 1-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea should be to give up assets to get more valuable assets. The idea that the Knicks have is the same idea they have pursued several times this century, literally this exact thing, and it fails miserably every time. No matter what happens we can all rest assured that they will somehow screw it up over time. So far as the draft, the last time the Knicks were headed towards a draft pick like this it was the 4th overall pick and they just unloaded him for the guy that they passed up on at 8 the year after. I think it's safe to say the lottery rules are the last thing to be concerned about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Also fun fact: Knox is shooting about 36% since winning rookie of the month. 36%. From the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's safe to say the lottery rules are the last thing to be concerned about. My point is that the Knicks are finally at a point where they're all out tanking and have all of their foreseeable first round picks. That's what they should have been doing for the last twenty years to rebuild the team rather than trading future firsts for out of shape and over the hill guys like Eddy Curry, or giving up 2/3 of their worthwhile assets for Carmelo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
