It's really very simple -- the Knicks need to develop a team of team players who will commit to playing together at a fast unselfish tempo.
If we can somehow transform this roster into a young, athletic, energetic, team-ball first group of players KP will take-off and the team will flourish long term.
It's very simple -- get rid of the old dead wood and start it from scratch.

It's Melo's fault. If Melo would just stop shooting and pass him the ball, they would be happier. But ofcourse they would blame Melo for passing it too hard if KP missed.
At one point in the first half MSG showed a stat where Melo was 8-14 and the rest of the team was 9-33...At the end of the game Melo was 10-17...The conclusion of the haters were that Melo wasn't passing the ball enough to KP..
or that melo shooting great doesn't lead to wins even against miserable teams.

are you interested in team ball or just Melo stats? This isn't about what an individual is doing stat-wise, it's his effect on the team as a whole.
where's the stat for miserable defense? I'm very happy Melo shot well, but why is it so hard to comprehend that, that does not lead to wins.

Melo is so good at what he does that he does not need anybody to score his 25 points.
Other players are not so good but they do not need him to score their points too.
And if people do not need each other they just separate and happily continue their life miles apart.
Or continue to struggle together....

So basically he is also done with Melo.
Franchise needs to hand him the keys quickly and get rid of the cancers on this team.
Rose n Melo suck the life out of the ball. I don't know why Melo has reverted back to being more of a me player. Rose never really bought in emotionally or tried to create a bond with KP. I don't know why but Rose plays like he was Body Snatched. No emotion or fire 🔥 and no team spirit or bonding.
kp is brutal when melo is not on the floor. If Kp was aggressive, hitting shots and playing hard with energy, the ball will find you. When your bricking open shot after open shot, no one going to force feed you.
One minute it's "KP is not ready he's only 21" and in the same sentencing im hearing melo and rose is holding him back.
Once again the coaching staff is doing a piss poor job of preparing the team and having them ready.
Your solid post percentage is really dipping in this thread. I half wish there was an iggy button on the forum. Get a clue, man.
