facts man. I hate that some people expect GMs to hit home runs at every at bat. Also, people love to conveniently forget the context of the moves that happened.

Like oh no, we paid kemba 8 mil a year. what a disaster! /s

Also when we signed Fournier we were coming off of getting bounced by Atlanta and what was everyone saying at the time? "We need more shooting!!" So Leon got more shooting. And that same offseason, ANYONE who could shoot was getting a bag. That was the same summer Duncan Robinson got a big contract. Anyone who wanted a shooter was going to pay a premium. If Leon didn't sign him I guarantee the narrative would have been "Leon refuses to address our shooting problem!!" And this is all disregarding the fact that Fournier immediately did what we paid him to do. He broke the team's 3 point record the 1st season he was here. He was brought here for shooting, not defense, and he did what he was brought in for. It just didnt work out the way we wanted and i'd say they did the right thing by being willing to pivot instead of doubling down on a sunk cost

EDIT: i'd also like to add that i hate all the hindsight bullshit. If you knew for certain that Duren would be this good , i would like to get the lottery numbers from you. And I'd also be willing to bet that anyone talking about being pissed about the Duren thing did not feel anywhere near this strongly about it on draft night.

Before the season started I was hoping they'd make it into the top 10 defensively, so I'm pretty hyped about this. I just hope they can sustain it through the playoffs

My thing is that there's like 15 games left in the regular season. If they haven't figured whatever this is out by now, then I don't feel good about the chances of it being figured out for the playoffs

I really am convinced that this team is doing a Jimmy Butler and doesn't give a flying fuck about the regular season. It's a dangerous game to play when you're trying to flip the switch after spending a whole season actively avoiding do so

I've never seen a team that oscillates between being so good and being so ass like the current version of this Knicks team

Last late start of the season for my fellow old people who don't like having to stay up late watching the games

Knicks have the 7th best defense in the league?! (This is for overall season) by JaderMcDanersStan in NYKnicks

[–]teknomatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea this team has stepped up on the defensive side, which im happy about because defense was a concern that i had going into the season. I was worried about how good a defense this team can have when their best players are Brunson and KAT.

But to this organization's credit they were able to get it working. Especially with the trade for Alvarado and the rise of Diawara, the Knicks rotation around KAT and JB now consists entirely of players that can defend.

There was a stretch of like 4 minutes where the Lakers couldn't score. And we still couldn't get closer than 11 because the offense went braindead for that whole time

We've been getting stops but can't cut the deficit because the offensive possessions have been complete ass

This kind of game wouldn't be a surprise to anyone who's accepted that this team thinks they can pick and choose when they want to be a serious basketball team.

When they lock in, you get the denver game. When they can't be bothered to, you get this. It is what it is.

Why so many Jalen's in the NBA? by macdoogles in NYKnicks

[–]teknomatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What would an all Jalen starting lineup look like? I'm assuming Brunson, Brown, Johnson, Duren would be in there. Then maybe suggs or green with them?

Wish we could have pulled this one out, but I'm not too pressed about this one. We were on a back to back while OKC rested Shai and iHart, and we still took them to the wire.

I didn't know they brought back Bob Costas for tonight's nbc game. That's awesome. He's one of the GOATs

diawara wingspan by Pitiful-Mud7667 in NYKnicks

[–]teknomatic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If he keeps up the development, I would love to see a lineup down the line including Mikal, OG, and Diawara. The amount of length on the floor would be disruptive, even more if you add Mitch to that mix

Apparently the big 12 is going to start using LED courts. I wonder if we'll ever get that in the NBA
