Have to hope the Kings keep winning at this point. Sigh.

He has 8 rebounds in 18min. KP had 1reb in 27min against Boston.
Let's not mistake this for great knicks play - yes, they're playing nice.
But my god Chicago is horrible!

lets not overreact over 1 game. KP was actually playing well again. He is 21 years old and hasnt even hit his ceiling. Also the kid has dealt with a shitload of injuries this year and still put up good stats
Baker and Ndour looking like NBA players tonight. If we can develop some cheap undrafted players like this who play within the team concept and defend hard (prototypical glue guys needed on every team), it will bode well for next year.
I've been saying that we have some solid role players on this team already that can help next year: Lee, Holiday, KOQ, Kuz, Baker, Randle/Ndour?.
NDour should definitely start the rest of the way to get s good look at him.

There has been a lot overreacting to single games that are meaningless lately. But if the goal is winning KP and Willy might be better suited to be on different units.

Bulls are laying down tonight for some reason. I knew we were gonna win this game so that's why I'm not surprised
Still tho! This is a putrid performance from the Bulls. I've watched their other games and this is just them doggin in tonight.
But when Miami shot 8 for 32 from three you and the other basketball minds thought it was because Melo was out. Lets hope your right and Melo causes a loss tonight.
You're not really making any valid points you know? At this point you're just TROLLING. All we want is for this team to upgrade the talent so we can build a winning team for the future. None of this other stuff we're arguing about means a damned thing. I could give a F about Melo. Melo is going to do what he does from here. If he stays just be a good teammate. If he leaves enjoy the next destination.
VALID POINT- Your in denial if you think Melo is/was our biggest problem. (Your constant point)
VALID POINT-Phil Has/Had no plan, except counting on clueless fans to assume he meant to tank on purpose. (This means you)
VALID POINT- Don't make useless points based on one meaningless win. ie. How good we look without Melo (How many have we won without him}
VALID POINT- MELO will be the last HOF to play here for many years.
VALID POINT- You call people names/trolls when you get called out.

I'm mainly joking. I just thought it was ridiculous that people did the same thing when Melo sat for a game and the Knicks beat the Heat. Heat played putrid that night, too, and the Knicks won by 4. But a bunch of people made threads about how it was proof the team moved the ball without Melo.
I think it's proof that you can't start Melo at the 3 and KP at the 4 next to each other. Makes the defense impossible. A guy like NDour is good to play next to Melo - more mobile. He'd probably be better next to KP than Melo is too.
It's just a bad fit. And obviously at this point you move forward with KP and try to trade Melo. But I'm sick of people blaming this season on Melo's effort level. It's just absurd.
Sit OQUINN The FUKK down you stoopid coach
