Rose shoots better and is an actual offensive threat, and their assist numbers are fairly close (6 vs 8). Might give their offense a different look, and knows how Thibs defense works.

Watch any Knicks game and you'll change your tune. Rose wouldn't be a bad 6th man though if you just wanted some offense in a small spurt.

Why do people think Rubio needs to be dumped? He has the 2nd highest WS/48 (over .100) on the team, 3rd highest PER (over 15), 3rd highest BPM, 3rd highest RPM.... By any metric he's a positive player and he's making 13 mil a year. He has trouble scoring, but his team is better with him on the floor.

Maybe they want to use the money saved on someone like Jrue?

Starting to do a 180 and think Knicks should maybe just let Rose expire. If we're gonna suck what's the point.

If the Knicks can get Rubio he will make your sucky team about 1000% more fun. I'm going to be seriously depressed if Ricky gets shipped but other fans should get to enjoy his play.

Hah ahh yeah, that's true. Forgot what enjoyable ball looks like.

There are so many good guards coming out this year that I find it interesting that it seems like Sixers fans online have fallen in love with Frank Ntilikina, who I don't think any have ever actually seen play basketball.

I mean not having seen someone play and having strong opinions on them is a big part of the draft process, but you'd figure they get more attached to someone in college with how many good US prospects there are.

Oh man USAGE RATE - numbers my worst enemy. If my eye test of actually watching knicks games isn't enough to convince you that rose is poison to porzingis, then I can only let someone else use numbers to argue
https://gothamsn.com/derrick-rose-and-the-importance-of-passing-ebd6ab002799#.4633hxr9g

I can't even recall a successful pick and roll/pop between Rose and anyone. He's not passing unless he's already in the air which is ludicrous to think about, especially for a PG. As much poo poo as I pile on Melo he is still hitting the open man for the most part (read: not crunch time).

Never forget. We did the same idiotic poo poo the yr we drafted Kris(actually every yr) but lucked out only cause he fell into our laps.

We were ahead of Philly and Orlando mere weeks ago but we only half-heartedly tanked, alternating resting Melo or Kris. Philly was ahead and immediately sat whoever was rolling last night in the 4th whereas we rode a hot Holiday to the bitter end.

That's not the point though. It's not even a juicer it's just a bag of juice that costs more than whatever already overpriced bottle or carton of juice you can buy at Whole Foods. At this point you're just another juice hawker. Probably should have just launched a "curated" monthly juice box if you want that subscription money.

It's hilarious:

Pretty much. It's about watchability, and calling fouls for stuff that doesn't look like it's against the Unspoken Spirit Of The Game isn't something the general audience enjoys, and the NBA has been generally responsive about that.

Yeah, I tapped out of this series even before it started. There's a ton of awesome stuff on TV right now anyway.

That clip of the Spurs guy chasing Harden with his hands on his head and still got called for a foul was funny. Truly what the people want to see.

Here's another clip where he's fishing for another one:



Oh, but he's in their heads I guess.
