Knicks · Gamethread: Superman and Kemba are in town, time for KP and the French Prince to send em out with a frown (page 13)

Dwight Howard gave us a glimpse of why KP shouldn't play center. He was taking a beaten from Howard.

If we could have Lance start at 3, McD the first 3 off the bench, move Hardaway to the 2, bring Lee off the bench. Would have a better balance. Still need our PGs to start getting to the line. I get the feeling we are at the bottom of the league in that dept. Some mistakes from Frank, but some heads up plays, and 4th quarter exp as well. Good to see KP amd Kanter sit on the bench for extended minutes because the bench was playing so well.

So glad he's gone!
he was more clutch in Denver to be honest BUT KP looks like a elite player

Also have to say LT finally coming alive. But I’m still skeptical of his consistency. Primarily due to inability to remain healthy

Howard has always been a dirty player so i dont think it would happen too often. Although i agree it would wear him down more

There's only one dwight howard though. And i think we can see that a mix of both positions works best.

That fat bastard missed every last second shot i saw him take.

I think Hardaway needs to go to bench for a couple of games to be reminded what he’s doing wrong

Wow.. awesome

They just keep stepping up on the Defensive side.

Of course it they played better earlier they wouldn't be down as much but then Charlotte was el fuego too....

McDermott threw his hat into the starting 3 ring tonight. The team has new guys stepping up each night.

Frank was good on D but suspect on O. Must improve and I am sure he will. He has all the tools and more importantly the guts.

KP - what can you say. The finger roll was unreal...7'3" from the 3 pt line with 2 secs to shoot it....no problem..I'll lay it in!

THe team has changed its culture. Big step.

i wasnt defending him. I agree with you. I was just saying whenever he actually did hit a clutch shot it was mostly his Denver days

Jeff is really getting so much out of this roster now. These strong 4th quarters are a thing now. Knicks are holding teams under 42% in 4th quarters. The LT and Nitty tandem is working great.

gotta give charlotte credit i mean they were hitting everything in the first 3 quarters. Frank will be fine on offense as the season goes along. Mcdermont is a weapon but his defense has to be a little better.KP is elite or on the cusp

how about defending your position to not pay KOQ 12 per lol? should be easy enough for you to figure out what you'd pay him to keep him.

Jeff is a good coach. His adjustments have been great lately
TPercy @ 11/7/2017 10:11 PM
I'm taking partial credit for the comeback. Once again my refusal to tune in during the 4th quarter led to another Knick win.

Damn its really that important to you this very instant lol. Like i said i still believe he will be traded. I dont want to trade him but he should fetch a good return

Almost every team has a big body physical player. I bet if you go through the whole league you'd find more players who could do what Howard was doing tonight. Gortat, Cousins, Drummond are three right off the top of my head.

I think your point about changing the culture is huge. This is a really likable team.
