No surprise that we have 4 fast break points from dwill and grant, the 2 players that get pinned to the bench

Things are changing! This team will get faster and more athletic.

how, when it a philosophy

Mmmmmmmmmm i'm not so sure about that. We obviously have Melo and KP but they have way more good players than we have.

Of their active players tonight, who is better? Faried, Mudiay?

N.Jokic, W.Barton and G.Harris. G.Harris is better than any guard we have. N.Jokic is really good and only 21.

Barton is having a nice year but he's better than AA right now? Not sure about that.

Jokic is a nice young Big--not better than KP--def not better than Rolo right now.

G. Harris is nothing to write home about.

Melo, KP, AA, Rolo, D Will

With Gallinari and Chandler out, we have a better roster.

I disagree. I'm not gonna do the child thing and go back and forth on this cause i really don't care but i'd rather have W.Barton over A.Afflalo, I never said any of the Nuggets were better than Melo or KP but N.Jokic is a really good player at just 21 and i'd give a lot of thought of who i'd rather have out of Rolo and N.Jokic (maybe you haven't watched him play enough) and like i said G.Harris is better than any of our guards.

Why are the Knicks playing up so tight on the Denver guards? They can't shoot.

Grant needs to learn how to setup players in a half court set.

Really can't wait to see Wroten run with DWill and Galloway

Galloway?? He's been stinking up the place. He stinks and his defense is over rated and his shot is just gone. I'd rather see Wroten with Grant and D.Will and KP.

SocraticBallin22 @ 3/8/2016 9:56 PM
Interior defense is despicable. Too many dunks and layups. Who's guarding Faried? He's having a field day in the paint.

You really don't understand the Triangle at all. There is no Philosophy of not pushing the ball. It's actually the opposite of that. It's up to players to push. We have many players who don't really want to run or aren't built to run. Phil is trying to add more athletes.

You realize Phil has signed every single player on the roster, right? Every single guy on the team was brought here by Phil.

Grant has a lot of learning to do on all sorts of things.

Too bad we can't bring in Wroten for Jose right now. Sigh.

We've discussed this! There's only so much he could do to the roster. It takes more than one off season. We need time to develop players and add better players.
SocraticBallin22 @ 3/8/2016 10:03 PM
Melo has been careless with the ball all game. Grabbed the rebound, didn't protect the ball--Jokic steals it lays it in.

Faried is having a field day in the paint with dunks--no resistance.

They are just not playing hard. No excuse.

Btw, what has happened KP's jump shot, too. It's so erratic. He's supposed to be a really good shooter.

What Grant needs is playing time; he's not getting enough of it.
