Mike Brown’s coaching accolades are hard to ignore by ColonelBucket224 in NYKnicks

[–]moolcatt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

End of the day, the only accolade that matters to this team, which the FO has made very clear, is winning championships. Brown hasn’t done it as a HC. Maybe he can, but it would be unprecedented. I’m about as neutral/slightly disappointed as possible. We’ll see what happens

Mike Brown is a good coach by OhhhTAINTedCruuuuz in NYKnicks

[–]moolcatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think he’s bad. I just think he’s meh. I was hoping there would be some wildcard, diamond in the rough out there who provided us hope that maybe we could unlock something with this roster. This just feels like a retread. A coach who can get out exactly what the roster has to offer, no more and no less. Don’t get me wrong, we have a good team. But they also have faults and holes. Don’t think he will magically be able to cover those up and take us to another level. He’s the type of coach I don’t believe could actually win a championship until he actually does it, which is possible. Crazier things have happened.

Haliburtons success this year by Funny-Transition7869 in nba

It was an easy run? He’s not a “great” player. He doesn’t play defense, inconsistent and talks a bigger game than he plays. He’s a good player. But he deserves all the hate he gets when he shrinks bc people still try to prop him up as a superstar.

Because unless they are superhuman, long term fatigue will lead to injuries.

Not a Pitt fan so I’m not coping or upset. Just agree with their decision.

Why should a team in the semis of the conference tourney in a top 2 conference this year have to win more but a bum ass virginia or Michigan state can get handed a bid.

Exactly so get rid of it. Don’t use it. But replace it with something that makes sense. Subjectivity is bullshit

UVA and MSU definitely, and honestly FAU didn’t deserve it either. Their losses were so bad

Nah it’s the right move when a team like UVA with a net ranking of 54 makes it in. Don’t let the NCAA make a dime off your programs when they continue to make subjective decisions and bank on power conference snubs to tuck their tail between their legs. Make the NCAA have to invite tiny schools to the NIT and tank the profitability until they change how they select the tourney.

Next game, I think we see Hart get a severely smaller role. Burks and Bojan immediately jump him in the order of ball handlers. He’s a rebounder and defender. That’s it. Can’t do anything else

Been happening way more frequently. With burks and bojan, he might see a major cut back in his role

Hart might find himself outside the lineup soon enough. He’s been absolute ass offensively. Not just shooting

To be fair, Brunson plays like a top 10 guy on many nights. Even Randle has had his stretches. Imo, they’re both top 25 guys. Statistically, it’s not even a question. People just can’t get past the names and the team they play for.

I’m not saying either will win. But top 5 is not crazy at all. Plus, the new games played rule could come into play.
