Here are my final thoughts (and feel-good YouTube clips) before the Knicks dive headfirst into 2011-2012. - STAT has been too passive thus far. Since ‘Melo joined the team, Amar’e hasn’t been the same. In the first half of last season, he would dominate teams in and out of the paint on the offensive end. Now, the offense moves completely through Anthony and he gets every big shot. Amar’e shoots a better TS% and eFG than Carmelo, and needs to be given the ball more in clutch situations – otherwise he will never regain the confidence a team leader needs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C93i_KFetdw - Toney Douglas looks just as he did last year, if not worse. This must be pretty evident to the Knicks front office as well. Iman has started practicing with the first team, and Baron Davis is the plan at point guard in the near future. Toney just does not have a high basketball IQ. He has a ton of raw talent and plenty of athleticism, but besides a few streaks of three pointers, his play has been uninspiring. He seems wholly unsure on offense and a bit slow on defense. I like him as a backup two – able to handle the ball well and provide some scoring. Let’s hope he can do this again – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2jvQvNiegs - The Knicks’ defense is above average and Tyson is the main reason. In the second preseason game against the Nets, Chandler personally altered about five or six shots in the paint – all misses. Most games the team lost last year were only by a few points. If Chandler can save 6-10 points a game, New York’s record could dramatically improve. I don’t think they have a top-ten defense, but I think the Knicks will finish top 15 (last year 21st) in defensive efficiency – good enough to contend for a title. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm4pXT0ar8E - Carmelo Anthony at PG may be the best option right now. Until Davis is healthy or Douglas can pass, I don’t see many other choices. His ball handling is great; he draws the double team constantly, and is able to find the open man. He also can pull up from three. The only issue is he will be outmatched in speed, so he couldn’t drive by opposing point guards. Still, he could play a point forward position, and matchup with other small forwards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7k8R-Yei_Y - Iman Shumpert has a real shot at being legit. He is confident, aggressive, and fundamentally sound. His ball-handling is great, his shooting form is excellent, and his defense, with some work, could eventually stop anyone in this league. I think his ceiling is a solid, all-around All-Star who can deliver about 18pts and 6asts per game – a far-shot from the disgust expressed by many when we first drafted him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWBZaajteXU - Balkman and Harrellson deserve a shot. Both provided quality hustle minutes off the bench, and didn’t make too many mistakes. Josh missed a few shots, but that’s to be expected. Balkman was scoring easily and grabbing a bunch of boards. I expect each to get maybe 5 or 10 minutes off the bench for at least the first few games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9NPhWY664Q - Overall I predict great improvement with room left to perfect the chemistry. I think this squad can ultimately win a Championship. This year, the Knicks go 38 – 28 and make it to the second round of the playoffs. Happy holidays and a healthy New Year! 心得:看来MELO要控球的机会颇大@@? 有高手可以帮翻译吗 英文不好 不太会翻~ -- 欢庆民国一百年 以下各楼可以与下列女性人名人共进晚餐一个月 1F女神卡卡 2F豆花妹 3F苍井空 4F王彩桦 5F林志玲 6F杨丞琳 7F蔡依林 8F如花 9F茹丝葵 10F徐裴翊 11F鸭子 12F安心亚 13F慧慈 14F小潘潘 15F吴怡霈 16F许纯美 17F吕秀莲 18F隋棠 19F林苇如 20F丽菁 21F陈绮贞 22F滨崎步 23F小S 24F大S 25F蔡英文 26F艾玛华生 27F白冰冰 28F殷 琦 29F白歆惠 30F花妈 31F杨伊媚 32F绫濑遥 33F前田墩子 34F叶全真 35F拟宝珠柠檬 --
