Official 2017 Knicks Offseason thread, Phil Jackson gone

[ballinsam23]

I agree with Jokic being a better player. Without looking at stats you would think KP regressed this year. He needs a PG badly.

 

[clyde the glide]

Miles Turner as well but KP ceiling is what makes him the better pick

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Ceiling doesn't mean much if you can't put the right guys around KP.

 

[the 718 truth]

Jokic is definitely looking for his teammates first. He's got that pg DNA lol. KP is more towards the scoring end of the spectrum. Both have great potential as does Turner. They're all still learning the game. I think KP can take it to the next level I just hope this organization doesn't squander the opportunity. Can't wait for Dirk to retire and dedicate all his time to KP.

Towns, Jokic, Turner, & Porzingis are all great.

All were in the same rookie class :x :x

 

[the 718 truth]

The center position is back

Exactly. KP is ahead of schedule imo. Dude is still very young. No way he should be carrying the offensive load and running isos. Hopefully they don't blow this too.

Turning on KP?

It was only a matter of time, man 

I ain't worried about ol boy at all. He'll come around 

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Pass first or not it doesn't matter. Jokic is way more of an independent player than KP. You put Jokic on the Knicks he'll be fine with Rose.

I've seen plenty of highlights where Jokic was comfortable in iso up top or down low and even create for others. The man plays like a giant point guard himself at times. Can't say the same for KP. He needs to be fed his scoring opportunities.

Dude, D. Rose ******* sucks

Word man. He's gonna be a stud. He's 20 years old

Sooooo basically ppl are contradicting themselves by crying about not having a top 5 pick. Got it.

that's one way to look at it but my point was there's talent outside the top 5. I still think KP has turned out to be a good pick. No turn here...

The cycle is sick. It was written.

 

[JJ Goon]

I can see the French dude (PG) easily falling to like 12 so we could still pick him up. I'd rather not leave it to chance though.

 

[njavier03]

just because we get a top 5 pick doesn't automatically mean we're gonna draft a future HOFer. we can still try to compete for the 8th seed and STILL draft a really good player or potential star.

 

[ballinsam23]

Chances of drafting a all star after the 5th pick drops significantly.

 

[goldenchild9]

KP has fallen in love with that stupid long range trailer 3 and the coaching staff has allowed it.

Hate that shot with a passion

 

[gridebounca11]

I just cannot shake the feeling that this team will end up just out the playoff picture and just out the top 6 pick...the lack of direction in this team usually bellies out to the most average...i hate this franchise.

I want us to lose out the rest of the way and get a chance at top 3. But damnit these scrub *** knicks gonna find some victories for no goddamn reason but to pat themselves on the backs at the end of the day. They dont deserve to make the playoffs and even if they do the NBA should just scrub em off the schedule for being one of the worst teams we've seen in franchise history.

Please, if youre a Knick fan, you WANT this team to lose every single game left. Getting a running mate to build with KP/Willy is of the utmost priority. An 8th seed appearance only vinidicates Rose/Melo for whatever amount of games it takes to lose to cleveland.

I just find myself Zo.gif every time I think about this horrible organization.
