Happy with what I'm seeing.

RJ is on a restriction; only explanation.
You are ? This team isn’t makin the playoffs why am I watching these lineups without Mitch and the young guys being the focal point . We wasting time on seeing what we have with the young guys in order to let elfrid and Julius shine ? Thet are what they are there is no point to this

rj is next
miller will look for any excuse to bench him because he values shooters like Ellington :snoop:
just another guy trying to save his job

like I said I am waiting for RJ to ask for a trade because they will throw him to the wayside next season too

Something to consider going forward. That Dallas 2021 pick could be something in the future. Dallas has dropped to the 8th seed. I know we are not in 2021 yet but if KP can't stay healthy and the teams at the bottom get better we may have another top pick to work with in the future. They could miss the playoffs next season. The Warriors, Timber wolves, Spurs, and NO will all be better. LA got a #4 pick with the 10th worst record in the west.

I want Jalen Green or Cade Cunninham
I think they can form a dynamic duo w/ RJ

miller doesn't fukk w/ frank at all
Lol nikkas complained about Fiz but he showed Frank way more love than Hornacek and Miller. :umad:

Also, gave Knox the opportunity to play high minutes his rookie year even though he sucked had a historically bad season according to the ‘lytics. :lolbron:
Kevin Knox has been historically bad: Here’s the stats to prove it

Also played R.J. a ton of minutes to start the season, put him at PG, and encouraged him to take tough defensive matchups.

When he was averaging 37 minutes y’all said he would run him into the ground. :shaq2:

i'm all for giving more burn to the players we drafted (Frank, Knox, Mitch, RJ) but while watching this game, i took a step back and tried to view it from a player's perspective, not just a fan.

if i'm Randle, Payton, Bullock, Ellington or Portis... of course i'm gonna ball out if coach puts me in. the same goes if i'm one of the rookies. coaches, just like players, are opportunists and send in whomever they think can win, not who's been here the longest.

if Frank put up Payton's numbers tonight, this whole thread would go bonkers! instead, i heard crickets. is that because we didn't draft Payton?

a fair argument could be made that we should sacrifice winning for the sake of developing our youth but let's cut the bullshyt... this is New York and patience runs thin in our city. this isn't Philadelphia, Phoenix, or Memphis. no one was complaining when we gutted our young core for Melo back in 2011.

whether we drafted, signed, or traded for our players is short sighted. what matters is that each one of them are here (for now) and we should all be supportive as long as they win, which is what they did tonight. winning cures everything.

from the eye test, fiz didn't know what the fukk he was doing so he was going to be gone either way
miller can go too but i am afraid of what's coming next...mark jackson
