2017-18 NBA Season

Freethinker · Dec 10, 2017

Knicks played a White friendly game against Atlanta tonight. KP lead the way with 30 points, 8 boards and 3 blocks. Doug McBuckets stepped up and added 23 points. Ron Baker is back now and added 9 points and 4 assists while playing major minutes. The Hawks, who are not a good team, had 5 of our guys in their rotation. Hopefully they’ll improve as the season progresses.

I noticed Joe Harris is averaging 10ppg as a Net this year, it's the first time in his 3 year career he's gotten consistent getting playing time and he's responding nicely! Always liked his all around game at UVA under Tony Bennett!

Just getting ready to post Markkanen and Mirotic's big night! Markkanen just 20 years old, has the making of a future star. Also from last night....
Harris, BKN: 21/7
Kaminsky, CHA: 14/6 Charlotte beat Golden State.
Pachulia, GSW: 14/7
Dragic has fallen off of late in scoring. Not sure what's going on with him?

Deceptive Speed · Dec 30, 2017

Missed one on my list in Nikola Mirotic.... Mirotic started the season late after getting into a fight with his thug teammate Bobby Portis. Now eligible for the leaderboards after 10 games, he's having a career year averaging 18 PPG and 7 boards!

Markkanen should easily win Rookie of the Year this year as well!!

Good to see the Knicks get back to winning again after a short slump. K. Porzingos
had 30 pts tonight in a close win including a monster dunk late in the game. He is
averaging over 24 points a game. KP owns NY! He will lead them to the playoffs many
times in the next decade and hopefully bring the city it's first nba champinship in decades!
