If Fisher would just play Grant more consistent minutes!

So i guess now that Fisher is gone you're gonna spend all of your posting time hating on Calderon?? Yayyyyy

Phil on the MSG broadcast just said "very slim chance" they'd make a trade at the deadline. He said they're willing, but not much out there for them aka teams don't want what we have to offer.

Looking to me like the players have a lot to do with these slow starts cause they can't make shots and aren't playing defense just like with Fisher. These guys better get their heads right.

Another very ugly 1st quarter. Teams seem to hit 3's continually against us but our offense is continuing to creak.

Interesting stuff from Jackson. Not looking like any major moves until the summer.

Team seems lost as to what to do.
Rambis is trying to make them play with more post entry and definitely try to run more Triangle, but it's looked off so far.
On defense, we're just slow at getting back and getting out on shooters.
Chandler @ 2/9/2016 8:33 PM
Keep your heads up. We need to just hit some shots and be more careful w the bLl

I'm starting to like the triangle less and less. We're not attacking the defense enough without screens and penetration. We're not good enough shooters to always work for mid range jumpers.

That's exactly what it is. If we were playing good basketball this whole time then teams would be interested in some of our guys but we haven't been playing good so our guys don't look good.

SocraticBallin22 @ 2/9/2016 8:34 PM
Are we the only team in the league that hardly ever set screens or picks to free up players?

Gotta make shots! When you miss it's gonna look bad no matter what you run!

I thought the whole thing with the triangle is to put you in better defensive position against the fast break?

Thomas really has a good pump fake! Guys buy it every time.
SocraticBallin22 @ 2/9/2016 8:36 PM
So far Rambis has done nothing different and the results are the same.

Knicks look wasted at this point.

KP seemed like he was out of it early on.

In general, the entire team looks slow, and those easy baskets beating our guys down the floor wasn't pretty.

Sort of lends creedence to the idea that the problem was not Fisher, but the Triangle.

That's what I think at least.
