If we don't ever figure out how to guard the 3 point line, we will lose a lot of games.

And forget about the Ntilikina/Smith Jr. comparisons, how about Mitchell?

I remember writing a post about him before the draft thinking maybe we can move back and acquire another pick and target him.

Our 3 point defense and shooting is both sub par

Good question nix!

Jeff asleep at the wheel tonight. He just stood there and let the Jazz Kill us with 3pt shooters. They don’t have anything else so you need a lineup that can MOVE!!! Jazz are very precise in passing and moving.

Jack can’t really Guard well enough and you don’t want to go with KP and Kanter Against there small ball lineups.

In the last three 1/4's we have given up 19 3's.
Cartman718 @ 11/15/2017 8:51 PM
We need Frank to simply start shooting. He can’t be shying away from open shots. No hesitation. Just shoot. I’d rather him try to jack it up like Timmy
Cartman718 @ 11/15/2017 8:52 PM
Thjr needs to be the guard that goes inside and Frank the guy that shoots from inside

Jeff IMO is playing Jack too many minutes and Frank not enough. Frank and Jack both had 24 minutes against the Cavs. The thing is that the Knicks perform WAY better with Frank on the floor.

More importantly Jeff MUST have Frank and KP on the floor together more. That's our top 2 man tandem.

We should be beating this team without gobert who was their defense inside. I’d take it to the hole every time

When we play a team going with a bunch of 3pt shooters we can't play Jack and Kanter. Neither guy has the range on D to keep the defensive rotations going. At some point they stop moving and someone is left open. IMO this is what has been happening.
