GT#37 Detroit Power Forwards (9-25) @ Muy Sacramental Knicks (18-18) Hi (again)Dennis

[east fb knicks]

Detvis the worst of the east this is another must win I knew we would lose vs the spurs but we gotta stay over .500

Bkuz we still could go tank mode if we lose this 1and start off the 2nd half bad

[xxplayerxx23]

Drose probably would've sat vs the spurs anyway thank God he should be back vs det

He wasn’t gonna sit. If he didn’t sit after playing 37 minutes vs Indy on a back to back there was 0 shot he’s sitting vs the Spurs. We shouldn’t need rose to clobber the Pistons but he should be back

[xxplayerxx23]

Dennis Smith Jr put up double/double with rebounds/assists.

Detroit coming off back2back.

Trap?

We’re gonna beat them pretty easily

[xxplayerxx23]

Damn. The Knicks could’ve used that.

He shot 3 of 9.

I feel great about the team but is anyone else a little concerned about this teams passing? We were never a good passing team but of late but I feel more guys guys are going tunnel vision. Quickley didn't pass at all in the first half of the Spurs game. Barrett has been doing tunneling more and I think Rose and Bukrs both have moments where there mind is made up.

Randle has to at times but he does look for others so he gets a pass imo but I think it's a little concerning

I think Barrett’s been good with his passing of late. Randle too. But yes we could use a pure Pgnlike lonzo. We don’t really have a pass first guy on the team. No selfish guys here but nobody that’s fine with looking to pass before score

[xxplayerxx23]

The Knicks are the worst team in the NBA when it comes to generating assists. Mostly due to the fact, the Knicks have a 3 bullet point attack plan:

1. Payton to Randle

2. Payton to Randle

3. Payton to Randle

Yeah, Randle will rack up 5-6 assists but also commit 3 turnovers in the process, trying to pass out of the triple team.

True, guards like Derrick Rose will go into scoring mode but that is to legitimize the guard and spread out the defense. Otherwise, guys will leave the guard open all day (see Payton) because he’s not a threat.

Watch how Obi Toppin plays when Rose is on the court. Totally different player.

Obi looks awful with rose too. He had one nice flash with rose the first game rose played but he looks lost and like he has no idea how to play basketball

He wasn’t gonna sit. If he didn’t sit after playing 37 minutes vs Indy on a back to back there was 0 shot he’s sitting vs the Spurs. We shouldn’t need rose to clobber the Pistons but he should be back

Well maybe it was for the best with those knees thibs don't need to be playing him like that

Story of his career. I want to like him, I want to a great deal. But darn, this is Frank. Too much inconsistency for so little highlights.
