OfficiaL '16 NYK offseason thread, Melo goes to bodega in bathrobe and Olympic hat

[GaBeGRaMz]

They really need to straighten out the replay rules and restrictions. Too much "they can review when this or that but not when this or that happens..." "if it isnt called or under 2 minutes" etc... it needs to.be.cut and dry, no fine print.

Coaches should be able to make challenges also.

 

[GaBeGRaMz]

Still tight. But like someone mentione, win friday and its all good.

Happy kp is still looking ahead and has confidence.

Phil did good.

 

[GaBeGRaMz]

Shout out my boy Melo too.

Derrick Williams played 5 minutes tonight.

he was a -12.

I not frustrated with Porzee taking forever to release the ball, or that we blew a 10+ pt lead, or the fact that Jeremy Lin went off on us.

What bothered me the most about this loss and others just like this one, was the poor management of personnel and the awful coaching decisions down the stretch. Am I the only one who was scratching my head when I saw Lance Thomas out on the floor over Porzee?

How the Hell does Calderon stay on the court after Lin smoked him 3 straight times? At that one, you have to pull him out and put in Gallo.

Why are we not rotating when Melo gets doubled off screens?

We've lost 2-3 games this year just because of poor coaching and that falls on the shoulders of Fisher. I understand he's learning on the job, but this is unacceptable. Porzee has been playing hard all night long. Even when he wasn't really clicking on the offensive end, the kid gave a lot of effort and energy on the defensive side of the ball. There is absolutely no reason you take him out for Lance Thomas. NONE.

Why isn't Derrick Williams playing more? When our second unit got smoked in the 4th quarter, Fisher needed to mix it up, but he didn't. **** Fisher man.

Phil needs to call that man in his office

Phil needs to call that man in his office

Phil needs to come down and coach. 

 

[ballinsam23]

I dont think we understand how many games Fisher is gonna lose us. There's already been 2-3 in our first 9 games.

 

[xbiker47]

Phil needs to come down and coach. 

If this really did happen, MSG would go wild

 

[acemaster193]

Big bummer at the end...but the game is never won/lost due to one shot

 

[earldagoat]

Kristhops Porkfingers

 

[Mister Meaner]

That needs to be changed to a W for the Knicks & the refs should be reprimanded.

And Fire Fisher.

It has begun.

 

[7thave btn 31stn33rd st]

"if Kris was a BROTHA he would've hit that shot. i am disgusted, Skip. absolutely disgusted."

I can legit see him saying this.

Phil needs to come down and coach. 

I think high key Phil wants to coach this team. This team is set up for him.

 

[gothmog]

finally melo found a sidekick in the NY team (porzingis) , happy to see him playing good since he is my favourite nba player after kobe and imo the most gifted offensively player nba has ever seen ( call me crazy but thats me ) , i hope knicks get a good PG off d league or free agency to replace calderon then you guys can enter the playoffs 

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Rambis would coach this team to its potential (42 wins)

Fisher is gonna hinder us from reaching our potential
(30 wins)

 

[johnnyredstorm]

i'm gonna try and write an article on Uncle Derek today. dude is downright clueless right now.

 

[nick.]

i don't understand how Galloway can play 32 mins one night & 19 the next. #3 & Grant were both struggling with Lin's quickness last night, why not put your best PG out there?

it's only been 9 games but in April losing these types of games will come back to bite you in the ***. i know it's basically a new team & it's gonna take time to gel but this game was more than winnable. decent coaching wins this game by at least 8 & probably has this team at 6-3.

i can deal with "being competitive" vs team like the Spurs & Cavs but blowing games vs the Bucks & Hornets...? nah.

i dont recall seeing Galloway in the 4th quarter.

still dont get why Lance Thomas is getting crunch time burn over ******* Zinger

 

[kingfoamnyc]

KP is a ******* Giant him and Lopez downlow would've made that inbounds play impossible

 

[nick.]

Gallo was put it for #3 in the last minute for defense

Lopez was put in a tough spot on the layup. either he gave up a layup or an easy jumper to Lin, either way he was at fault.

but like i said last night the game should've never come down to attempting a miracle 3 with less than a second left. poor coaching lost 2 12+ pt leads. i gave Fish a pass last season cause the roster was awful but he has a roster with actual potential & NBA talent he's looked awful, too. i don't think Phil would ever fire him so we better hope he gets a clue before it's too late.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Double dribble.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

We will always lose to coaches who know how to make adjustments (benching kemba) and who can draw up great plays in late game situations (Zeller gw layup). Fisher is so ******* incompetent its hilarious. What makes me hate him even more is hi ****** attitude. Dude is a complete ******* who carries himself like he's a HOF player and coach like dude ****. Dude really doesn't have one likeable quality about him

 

[clyde the glide]

dude knows how to say all the right things but doing them is another story

 

[nydunkhead]

Zinger hit that shot in time, but it is bad karma from the night before with that blown Melo out of bounds call.....
