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

[ballinsam23]

Caldo can not be the starting PG on this team.

 

[gregzzy23]

I thought before the game stick with the starting backcourt unless they really suck but I'm ready to say calderon and sasha starting doesnt work. they need some speed and youth in there. no need to delay the inevitable and just let grant start.

Nate Rob still jobless

The problem is that no one wants Calderon. Phil tried to trade him since All-Star break.

Isn't he an expiring now ? Things may be different

 

[ballinsam23]

I'm not worried about Sasha. He wont be in there once Afflalo comes back. I'm more worried about Fisher and his terrible substitutions.

******* cut the dude. we can't win basketball games with Calderon getting more than 10-12 mins a game

i'm legit mad at Fisher. about to drive 90 mph to MSG & fight him

 

[ballinsam23]

He already got cut. Nate Robinson is as trash as Jimmer at this point.

Sadly, He has one year left on his contract.

I think we should split them up. Let Grant start with Sasha, Let Jose play with Galloway. That way you can balance them out and our bench won't go to complete TRASH when Grant/Galloway sit. Then let Grant/Galloway close out together.

I mean it's a simple fix until Afflalo gets back. Don't know fisher doesn't see this

 

[nick.]

i'm fine with Calderon starting, he can't play 20+ minutes tho.

play him for 4 mins a quarter, once Afflalo is back split the remaining mins between him, Grant, & Gallo

@NY_KnicksPR: X-rays of Kristaps Porzingis' neck were negative. He has a soft tissue injury and will continue to be evaluated.

@NY_KnicksPR: Porzingis has a strained neck. A concussion has been ruled out. He will be re-evaluated tomorrow.

@HerringWSJ: Porzingis says he has no clear sense of when he'll be back on the court, but figures it'll be soon.

@HerringWSJ: O'Quinn jokingly told Porzingis to prove he was OK by asking him how fingers he was holding up. KOQ then held up his middle finger.

 

[antidope]

Gg you guys. Glad to see Porzingis isn't seriously hurt.

needs to stay jobless... ol overrated chucker *** *****

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Need Afflalo back so Galloway can take a step back and let the game come to him instead of trying to do too much. 1 on 3 he forces a layup and misses. That behind the back pass to Melo. Less is more with him. Grant looks great, O'Quinn and D Will are tremendous fits for the triangle. Porzingawd looks solid.

an hour later & i'm still pissed Fisher thought Calderon was a good idea to start the 4th

i have legit hatred for Caldo now. dude is awful.

Same here + rep

 

[arrjae2]

there was a bunch of suspect calls going against us.

but just like the ATL game, everyones shot was off.



on to the Cavs.
cant wait for KP to dunk...

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

at this point in the rebuild with basically a whole new team all you can ask for is that we're competitive.

i didn't expect a W tonight but we fought for 3.5 quarters.

pulled it within 5 down the stretch. Would like to see Melo take a game over at that point. Losing by 10 ain't so bad though. We fought.

 

[nick.]

Melo admitted he wasn't getting anything vs Kawhi so he started trying to draw the foul instead of shooting over him or going around him

i think we matchup better with Cleveland, we'll see how it goes Wednesday
