c-start either Noel or sims for 12/16 min to start halves with mitch getting bulk of pt off bench as Nd giving Obi 5-7 min
Breakdown Noel/ sims 14 mitch Rob 28. Obi 6 Gibson back up
Pf randle 34. Obi 14
F Barrett 28 Grimes 20 and the better man gets more min as time goes by
G Fournier 28 Iq 20
G kemba 28. McBride 20
10 man rotation
The rotation doesn't even matter when you team is almost dead last in assist.
The knicks have 4 big men (Taj, Noel, obi, mitch) that combine to avg 1.5 assist per game, that is absolutely fckng insane
Randle avgs 5.1 assist (our leading assist man) is also avg damn near 4 TO's
All it takes is 1 or 2 guys to consistently make the extra pass and it becomes contagious.
It's a reason we hit 20 3's the other night and had 28 assist in the process, guys made the extra pass
C: Mitchell Robinson.
PF: Julius Randle.
SF: R.J. Barrett.
SG: Quentin Grimes.
PG: Kemba Walker.
C: Nerlens Noel.
PF: Obi Toppin.
SF: Alec Burks. .
SG: Immanuel Quickley.
PG: Deuce McBride.
(I'd completely remove Evan Fournier from the rotation. Bench him for 10 games (as Thibs did to Kemba Walker) and only play him again once someone catches Covid (and maybe it'll light a Kemba Walker fire under Evan Fournier's ass).
I believe it's criminal to steal minutes away from R.J. Barrett/Quentin Grimes/Immanuel Quickley/Deuce McBride in favor of a trash ass defensive liability such as, Evan Fournier.

What do you mean spitting contest?
Do you really believe our Defense can ever get back to #1 again or even top 5, with Evan Fournier in our rotation and especially starting 5?
I would love to see EFs minutes go to both Quentin Grimes and Immanuel Quickley, wouldn't you?
Rotation isn’t a concern until Rose comes back. Until then it’s likely
C Mitch/ Noel
PF Randle/ Toppin
SF Barrett/ Burks
SG Fournier/ Grimes
PG Walker/ Quickley
Deuce is probably on the outside looking in just for now. When rose comes back there will be a real decision to be made, especially if Grimes keeps playing well. When it comes down to it, the Knicks will eventually need to consolidate. Too much depth is a great problem to have, but we need upgrades in the starting lineup.
