My Posse's On Broadway: Official NY Knicks 2016-2017 Season Thread

[genesis09]

SLAM: We’ve noticed in the way you’ve been playing, you’ve been really crafty at the rim and using the rim as a weapon to keep shot blockers away. Is that something you worked on to avoid contact when going up for a layup?

DR: Yeah, that and putting different parts in my game to attack without thinking. The last three years I had injuries and when you’re on the floor after you have injuries, you’re thinking on the floor instead of reacting. Right now I’m attacking the rim. Second part of the season I’m going to have my jump shot. Third part of the season and the playoffs I’m going to have the trey ball. I’m working on pieces of my game so I’m improving and helping the team along the way.

Whats KP's rating at now?

 

[Dreamzeedream]

Whats KP's rating at now?

He's 84 now. I think that's good him. I probably would of given him an 85.

Melo is an 87


Drose is a 80 but they should of bumped him to at least a 82 or 83

 

[mbewane]

Just saw the game and as usual went through the last pages of the thread...thread is as negative as if we had lost the game

GO NY GO NY GO

 

[Miles Davis]

He's 84 now. I think that's good him. I probably would of given him an 85.

Melo is an 87


Drose is a 80 but they should of bumped him to at least a 82 or 83

So KP went up 4, Melo dropped 1 and Rose stayed the same.

Thanks fam, I still got 2k16

I agree about Rose and KP. Rose aint that washed up yet. And Zingis is averaging 21.4ppg efficiently and has become a real good rim protecter no homo

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Whats up Knick brehs

Hopefully another fun game, Wolves win, KAT drops another 40 and Zinger dunks so hard Gorgui has to reveal he is really 33 years old

I hope we get more KAT/KP one on one matchups. They didn't really guard each other much and when they did, it was mostly KP defending KAT

Its all good breh,Why u ain't get 17 on black Friday?


And KP Shot blocking and rebounding is in 2k17. His shooting Ability Is just icing on the cake and if your good at Attacking and Doing lay up's, your going to Average MVP Rose numbers with rose. Plus his midrange game is decent to. He's way better than a 80. Idk why he's rated so low

Rose need to be at either 18/10 or 20/8 to get 82 or 83 rating he just gotta start making jumpers consistently

 

[Derek Lee]

Hopefully, Lance can give us productive minutes this time and the plantar fasciitis doesn't hamper him too much.

Activate Ron the Baker and call up Chasson

This is why I hate the Knicks fan base. The loud bunch ruins it for all of us.

As for tanking, that doesn't enforce a positive mindset on our young players. Tanking never works, you need to have a solid team that can develop draft picks to complement your team. Players being drafted to be A1 stars to win it all doesn't happen anymore. They don't accomplish anything except stat accumulation. What has Davis or Cousins done in the league?

I can guarantee you after multiple losing seasons Towns, Simmons, Embiid, Noel, Wiggins are all going to leave. Tanking is cool for the fan base but these guys play for success.

Trade Melo? Look at how KP plays right now, those moves he learned from Melo. He benefits from having people that must be guarded on the court. As good as KP is he is only in his second year. We don't need to put more pressure on his body. He is 7'2!

Remember, KP had a great stride last year until he couldn't get his buckets to go through. It's an 82 game season. One game at a time.

If your team isn't successful players will use it as a stepping stone to advance their career for a better one. You'll notice certain teams have beenfor a while. 76ers, Wolves, Kings. And that's because Igoudala, Iverson, Garnett, left. You can't have continuity while tanking.

Happy Viernes brehs. fukk wit me I'm out here wylin

 

[storyteller]

In...and we're at the Garden, so I hope the refs actually blow the whistle on all those elbow hooks that Towns uses to get around defenders. But it's also Friday with a .500 record; so if the typical black magic takes effect prepare for that
