I'm glad fans aren't the gm. We totally need Kanter and Burke. We are the Knicks/76ers without those 2. Sorry folks, but Exum and Gobert clearly aren't ready for starting roles.

To be fair, this lineup is borderline D-league.

I'm still a Kanter supporter and always have been. Now, any semi capable PG would likely be an upgrade to Trey. Defensively he isn't even a blip on the radar.

You're right.

But Gobert hasn't made a strong case for himself fouling every 30 seconds. And Exum? My hell. I don't think I've ever seen a player of his athleticism so scared to drive into the paint. He literally needs to make a 180 to become anything close to the player we all thought he was going to be.

To be honest, I don't like his attitude. Gobert is young and raw. But you can tell he's competitive and has a mean streak. Exum? Looks like a scared puppy. I saw more fight out of CJ Miles his rookie year. I honestly don't like Exum's offensive game at all.

I get it, we don't want JR Smith. But I need to see a heart beat out of him sometime this season.
 
Hayward was extremely passive as a rookie too, and he was nearly a year and a half older than Exum at that point and had more experience against pro-calibur athletes.

Some of you need to chill.
