2016 NBA Season Notes/Info

"A source close to the situation also said players have tuned out Hornacek. And following Sunday’s loss, Porzingis described the game-planning as inconsistent and confusing."

Yeah but who's the real problem here though? Isn't it Phil Jackson the one who's been trying to install the triangle since the All Stars break despite every single players hating it?

When I first read that quote I thought it said "turned out" which made it sound like Knicks players had started prostituting Jeff Hornaceck.

This years squad is ****ed. Hornacek is as lame a duck as you can find. NYers aren't about giving him a fair shot, he hasn't done enough to change the losing culture. So he's not good enough, it's that simple. He's a dead man walking, the players undermined his leadership long ago, with the D. Rose flare-up and the bickering in the media.

There's a lack of institutional control that trickles down from Dolan. There's little doubt that I'd have done a much better job, as we all know here I'd have certainly taken Porzingis, which is really far and away Phils crowning achievement.

They'll clean much of the house and start anew, finally with some draftpicks.

I never liked the hiring in the first place. I thought they should've handed David Blatt full control, no way they could be this ****ed with him at the helm.

I honestly think Hornacek saw this coming. It was a bad fit for him to start with. I mean he's hardly the triangle expert. He knows Phil will ask him to install the stupid triangle offense which players hate, it won't work with D.Rose and Carmelo.


I bet he saw this coming and just wanted to take the money and run... LOL ...

If I were Dolan I'd fire Phil, give my blessing to waive melo, hire a low profile but quality Jr executive from a quality franchise ro be President of bball operations, let him hire a new GM and let them build a team.

Seriously it's New York. There is no reason why a couple of old has beens(perhaps never was in Melo's case) should be holding that franchise hostage.
