    Frank is injured again. What a shock!

    That’s a significant factor in his lack of development. You do most of your developing in the off season and he’s hurt virtually every off season.

    I agree with the article in that it is a list of 24 NBA small forwards… well, most of them are small forwards

    Finally some games to watch! The off-season is way too long. A lot of take-aways from FIBA and the past few months…

    -Brunson’s passing has improved as is the rest of his game.

    -RJ looks like a beast. I remember his rookie season when he couldn’t win at the rim. Now he looks unstoppable.

    -I’ve seen offseason workouts for almost every Knick rotation player. The one player I really wanted to see dedicate himself to the offseason was Robinson. All I see from him are posts with his baby daughter (I love that) and all of his new cars. I worry about him both as a player and as a person. He should be taking 1000 foul shots a day and working on a post-up game. He needs a turn-around jumper or a hook shot. He can’t slam everything. And if he’s buying all these cars, is he saving any money? This article came to mind.

    -I feel bad for Frank Ntilikina who suffered a thigh injury that knocks him out of FIBA and may impact his season.

    -I hope that Fournier’s ankle gets well fast and that he really impresses during FIBA. We need his trade value to go up. I think that we all want a good, all-around, defensive-minded PF/C added to this roster.

    If it weren’t for the injuries Frank would’ve had a real shot at being a great depth piece on a middling European team

    Just when I thought you were finally learning something about valuing players correctly…… 😉

    Just because I mentioned Mitch’s work ethic earlier. Is this him getting ready for the season?

    Mitch Instagram

    If you can hook a fish, you can hook a ball

    Mitch literally did a post where he said all he was doing is cardio and FTs and you persecute him

    Yeah real Basketball Knowers know that all Frank needs is a healthy offseason to learn to shoot, make layups, dribble, pass, and rebound

    Frank Ntilikina cannot be bad at basketball, because Phil Jackson drafted him and Phil Jackson knows more about basketball than all of you have forgotten

    #goink

    Mitch does need to practice shooting but I’ll judge him on his stats next year not his instagram.

    he looks quicker but sometimes its due to the opposition being a bit slow of foot…which that looks like the washington generals of germany team…aka hogan’s heroes all stars…

    I can’t believe we have such an efficient scorer and shooter like RJ on such a bargain contract! 🙂

    Screw OG Anunoby!

    RJ laughs at the inferior skills of guys like Donovan Mitchell.

    Boy, wouldn’t it be great if the big break-out season comes from RJ!

    (…he says, swinging his leg through where Lucy had placed the football…)

    It would be great if RJ were doing stuff life this in the NBA next year. Solid Knickerblogger consensus there.

    Didn’t watch Canada but I was thinking RJs game fits FIBA better with some worse athletes and he can leverage his strength much more

    The Yankees have been like a functioning alcoholic who never fixes his life bc he’s just competent enough to avoid rock bottom. So I welcome this disaster with open arms.

    Feels like we should have beat Spain by more than 10. Looking at their roster they’re not the juggernauts they once were. They’ll need some new blood soon unless Santi Aldama turns into a superstar

    The Americans shot 67% — 71% on 2-pointers, 56% on 3-pointers, while holding Spain to 42% shooting.

    Um, so did they shoot 67% or 71% or somewhere in between? Good job ESPN

    67% is the FG%, and then they split between the 2P% (71%) and 3P% (56%). Means that they roughly shot 2/3 of 2Ps and 1/3 of 3Ps. It’s not usual to do this on game box scores, but BRef has it on player profiles and i find it useful.

    Um, so did they shoot 67% or 71% or somewhere in between? Good job ESPN

    They shot 67% from the floor.
    71% from 2-point range
    56% from 3-point range

    https://www.foxnews.com/sports/james-harden-in-china-rips-76ers-team-president-expressed-support-hong-kong-protesters

    Harden, while on a tour in China, ripped 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey, calling him a “liar” and said he would never play for any team he is a part of.

    “Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of,” Harden said Monday. “Let me say that again – Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of.”

    This should be fun!
