Oh it's definitely way too early. I'm not writing them off. They got time to figure things out, but who are they really though?
There were obvious issues from the outset and pertinent conflicts of philosophy that needed to be addressed. Lots of new pieces to the puzzle all trying to fit at once, awkward combinations and all. Better to be in wait & see mode than trying to boost these ******.

That + no communication on D or real effort to keep their man in front of them.

Melo being told by the crowd 'to pass the ball' was telling. With this team the ISO gotta be quick. Make a move and shoot or make the move to draw the d and pass. Got team mates now that can draw defenders as well as make passes.

Team runs fluid when they play off kp .... during close games he could ISO until his arms fall off .... but when the team was passing and rose /Noah would set up plays it look like a fluid offense ..... defensively they need to do a lot of work

Was at the game. Lazy *** game by the Knicks. Once again, poor ball movement, poor defense. Knicks should have won this easily but they just let it slip.
Free tickets with complimentary beer and grub tho. I can't complain.

The Knicks, Kings, Twolves and Sixers need to sit down and shuffle players between them because no matter what these 4 franchises do they just can't get it right.

What do you take from this ? Fatigue? Awful coaching ?

Don't think it's fatigue because our offense has been fine.
Our communication has to get better. Rose/Lee got switched onto a big man way too often.

I just think we need a legit goon to come in when Noah is out.

We risk burning out Noah if we rely that much on his intensity.

Pelicans are about to release Lance and Josh Smith is still a free agent. I need entertainment if we're going to be terrible.

We have to stop switching on pick and rolls
Also why did dLance play 29 mins
I blame Hornacek for the lost and refs. Why did he play all the bench? so stupid

NY will get a chance to redeem themselves on Wednesday, so as long as America survives election day on Tuesday. #knickstape

It makes me laugh the way you guys and the media focus so hard on the triangle and they've barely ran it and the team still plays bad.
This whole the true gel is and offensive system of a past era is such a distraction and fallacy. Got ppl worried about the wrong ****.
You need good players to run any system.

The defense is by far the biggest problem. Could care less about the hexagon or trapezoid right now

We really should've won that game yesterday.
A lot of the brunt of that loss has to fall on Horny.
He wants the bench players to catch a feel but not at the expense of an L. Our starters still need to gel and develop an identity too.
He let the game get away from us in the second half.
