Official 2019 NYK offseason thread. Brooklyn knick fans check in

Eehhhhhhhh...

This jokey joke thing he does when he messes up ain’t gonna play very long in NY man

 

[Mark Antony]

Relax.

 

[don ramon]

no one should be putting any pressure on this team or the coach this season. it is what it is.
they're going to lose games with a few occasional streaks of success. being too uptight over them is self-defeating. let em have fun

 

[goldenchild9]

He's just trying to take pressure off of everyone after 2 hard fought losses I think.

Gotta keep young guys loose and confident or things could get toxic fast.

 

[アミーゴ]

Love hearing Fiz say that

 

[you go boy]

Even though this team is in tank mode I love that they playing hard and with heart despite no KP and even Knox. I hated on the fitz hiring but he's way better than horny. I love that these guys play defense and even though there's no go to guy like KP or even melo they play more like a team.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Gotta love him taking the blame and protecting his guys. If that doesn't get Burke in the gym throwing up 1,000 free throws nothing will

 

[Mark Antony]

Fiz is a great coach, loved that he acknowledged his mistakes. They were fun, close losses and he coached those games to be closer than they should have been.

And for the first time in a long *** time I can say the chemistry looks good.

 

[goldenchild9]

Word. Better than the tightassed egomanics that have been at the helm before...like Larry Brown, D'antoni, Phil, Fisher etc.

They never admitted their mistakes and took sneak shots at the players, making a hard place to play even harder and eroding team chemistry.

 

[nick.]

Rather hear Fiz say that than the generic 'We just didn't execute'

 

[you go boy]

The passion from coach Fitz is also dope too. He actually cares about every single play

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Team might be better than anticipated with just KP added. Really want him to sit out the year cause these dudes play way too hard you add KP to that they start winning these close games

 

[you go boy]

With the team currently built they would be nice with KP

 

[|A-Man|]

i wish Frank shot 19 shots in a game, wouldnt even care if he missed them all

Yes you would

That would translate in to ppl ****ting on Fiz.

 

[jaysonny3]

We know we won’t be decent this year but 3 games in, the heart and effort is there, Fiz is teaching and they are playing for one another. This team reminding me of the baby knicks the years before we got Stat (DLee, Chandler, Nate, Frye, JCrossover)

Chris Brinkley doing his magic is Enes and THJr over the summer @ lifetime sky

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Real coach.

We might be even better after 20 games and rotations start to get locked in

The league will get better as well but I think we're in for a lot of competitive games this year

 

[kn0wledgeable]

I like that the games are close, as long that we take the L's. This will be our last tanking season

 

[kingfoamnyc]

 

[nick.]

Competitive losses & development

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Hope they lose 65 games but play hard in every outing.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Kemba / Trier
Ntilikina / Romeo
Knox / Dotson
Durant / Vonleh
Porzingis / Mitch

 

[nick.]

 

[goldenchild9]

Kemba is playing out of his mind right now. Him and KP would wreak havoc on the East for the next 3 seasons.

 

[donewithjs]

This is the only reason Knox ****ed his ankle up! Thick *** soles that look like they have zero flexibility and flyknit looking material for ankle support! Come on, anyone wearing this bull**** sneaker is going to get hurt. Airforce one sole with flyknit uppers

 

[you go boy]

kemba also putting up 25 shots a game... i would hope he has some big games after chucking that much
