Not in lineups with Russ. And Russ is most definitely a starter. We are still a 5 out team, first and foremost. Pick and roll/dunker only when Russ rests.
A center that can shoot and having 5 out with defensive and rebounding being a lower priority, why did we release Ryan Anderson again?
He is not on a team, but IMO still think he can shoot and he has height. Think we could do worse for a guy coming off the bench. Depending on who actually gets bought out as well.
highly doubtful that moe harkless is gonna get bought out... he's back in his hometown and said it's his dream come true to play for the knicks. unless the knicks force him out, he's not going to want out.
This is likely a coincidence that he is in Houston but I will say he makes so much sense. Fits like a glove, rim protection and rebounding but more importantly he can rotate. The fact that he was chilling in China feels like a Morey move.
I like Ekpe .... but like Bismack better. Longer, better athlete, better instincts, better motor, better offense, better rebounder, better rim protector, better switch defender. And just as important, Biyombo plays with an edge and is experienced and highly productive starter. Ekpe not so much.
MKG better than Tyler Johnson IMO. Longer (6'6 vs. 6'3), younger (26 vs. 27) and shooting better 3P this season (29 vs. 28). Dion Waiters better than Johnson too.
