“For a team that’s still nine games above .500, the Knicks have switched from hot to cold and back to hot and back to cold quicker than Bengay.

They’ve won at least three straight six times this season. They’ve lost at least three straight five times. A few months ago, they followed an eight-game winning streak with a five-game losing streak and then followed that with a four-game winning streak. On this stretch, they won nine consecutive games, then lost three in a row, then won three in a row and have now lost their past three.”

Man, it’s been one of those years (for virtually every team in the west).

gratuitous sex, juvenile at times…

whitfield plays it so serious though, he’s magnificent…there’s different reasons this one season worked – when it really should not have…he’s the main one though…

what caught my attention when watching it the first time was the dirty politics stuff of lawless and hanna…

they were just so good…the dialogue is pretty fun also…

if you’re able to stick it out for a 13 episode first season – the season finale is really something else…

if you liked the first 12 episodes- the payout on episode 13 is amazing…

To be honest, I think the first part of that has been part of the problem.

They’ve been sacrificing interior defense, rebounding, and a more balanced attack on offense to maximize space and Doncic. That’s the point I’ve been making for a few years. That’s sort of what the Rockets tried to do with Harden, but they did it better than Dallas. I think that’s a good formula for a very good offense, impressive boxscore stats for Doncic, maybe even an MVP for Doncic, but an unlikely championship. IMO, you have to defend, rebound, and sometimes trade a little space for other attributes.

I know we’ve had this chicken or egg conversation in the past. They haven’t been playing this way because of the lack of skills of the other players. They’ve been targeting players that can shoot 3s over other attributes so they have a lot of space.

I really like our new centerfielder…

hopefully lemahieu stays healthy and has a nice bounce back year…that dude is crazy valuable…

Aaron McKie, George Lynch, Tyrone Hill, Theo Ratliff, and Eric Snow are all free agents this summer.

I think for awhile we had some 3 star teams like that were far ahead of most of the other teams. Now it’s more of a 2 star league. I’m not sure exactly when I realized the change. I guess it was about 30 games or so ago. But suddenly I felt a lot better about the Knicks. We have 2 players that aren’t a LOT behind some of the other two man tandems and we have fairly deep team. There aren’t that many teams that are clearly way better than us. Of course, there are also quite a few teams behind us in the standings that are close to use. But I think the best teams now are weaker than they have been in some other recent years.

This is the kind of content I subscribe for.

Maybe just surround Luka with some guys who can catch passes, shoot threes, dunk lobs and play defense.

The LeBron/KD era is winding down and young teams like Orlando and OKC might be coming into their own finally.

Where does that leave the Knicks? Idk… probably trying to take advantage of a gap between generational talents with the hope that they can draft well in the teens and twenties?

I know we’re having a nice season, but it still doesn’t seem sustainable tbh.
