The Decision: JR Smith is a New York Knick!!!

[airchibundo507]

Smith is out of the Chinese playoffs, and I expect him to make his decision within days. The Knicks are the frontrunners. Even though LAC would be the more ideal situation, they blew their money on KMart and only have the min left to offer. :lol

Even if you dislike JR Smith or feel he could potentially disrupt team chemistry (whatever that is), signing him is only for a year. We could put him on a short leash coming off the bench and restrict his minutes if he acts up. It is a low risk/high reward situation.

Our spacing sucks and we don't have enough shooters. We don't have a go-to guy off the bench. Add JR Smith and I promise we are contenders.

what say you?

[Rameek]

What money do the Knicks have left?
As a basketball move it would make sense but I dont know if they want to hurt Fields and Shumps growth.

JR is no. 1 for the Nuggets

watch that video and tell me we couldn't use a sharpshooter that can put the ball on the floor and dish to our big men.

he is no worse a defender than landry fields

is our goal to develop our young role players or win a championship in the primes of our superstars?


we have 2.5 million left to spend, and that will be prorated

I don't expect Davis to play this season. He's done.

If all things being equal I think I would go to LA so I dont know how realistic it is getting him.

Didn't I tell you guys. That january comeback date was BS. I saw this guy with my own 2 eyes (and I don't wear glasses or contacts). I fractured my hip and pelvis playing basketball and Davis was walking just like I did.

Amare + Melo doesn't seem to click I don't know why. Maybe with Lin in, it may be possible.

[airchibundo507]

JR narrows it down to Knicks and Clippers!

[bluechox2]

i dont see where we can get extra minutes for jr if he signs..
only way to make minutes is to send walker to the end of the bench
and tahts only likr 15 minutes or so
dantoni will still play bibby, but id rather give it to shumpert for those few minutes when giving lin some rest.

maybe make melo play some 4 towards the end of the quarter to go small to fit in jr/shump/fields some extra playing time.

[Rameek]

Well since Indiana backed off it looks like its down to 2 reportedly.


The Knicks and Clippers "appear to be the frontrunners" to sign J.R. Smith.
Smith was known to be considering both teams, and these are the two clubs that have been mentioned most prominently in connection to Smith. The report says that the Knicks remain the "presumptive favorites" because of the salary the team can offer, but the Clippers are attempting to entice him with the chance at winning a championship ring. The report states that the process "could drag out a bit," and that a player option for next season could be important in Smith making a decision.
Source: ESPN LA Feb 16 - 9:09 AM

[bluechox2]

he would seriously want a 1.5million players option with the clippers...?:lol

[Rameek]

According to beat writer Frank Isola, the Knicks are "closing in" on a deal for free agent J.R. Smith.
Smith's Chinese Basketball Association season ended on Wednesday and he's expected back in the United States Thursday. The Knicks and Clippers appear to be the two finalists, but the Knicks can offer the most money. In New York, Smith would likely start off as a scoring reserve behind starting swingmen Landry Fields and Carmelo Anthony. He averaged 12.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.6 3-pointers and 1.2 steals in that role for the Nuggets a year ago.

Honestly I don't see whats not to like about this move. I understand he has a terrible basketball IQ, which I think is very very very important, but he can shoot the lights out when hes on...and what basically sold me is:

I like guys who hustle, but that's pretty much all he can do. Hustle his way into stupid fouls. Balkman won't be missed.

[Sarcastic]

Wow, D'Antoni is not into energy players. Balkman is kind of a surprise to me. He has versatility too. Has you wondering if Balkman letting Isiah Thomas steal the ball at the end of the blowout earned him the dog house. D'Antoni is weird like that. Small Forward is one position we are not deep at.

Which is why I want to see Fields play SF more often.

[bluechox2]

fields and shumpert can play sf

So are we expecting Smith to come straight in and start or be used as bench scorer?

I dont see why Knick fans here dont love Lin as much as I do.

This kid has improved this team in every phase of the game. Not any other player acquisition has affected the team this way (not so subtle hint!).

What player do I like, I love the Knicks. I hate bad basketball.

I am not a fan of other players from other teams in any sports but I respect skills. I personally dont like it when people are fans of multiple teams and fans of players from other teams. Old school that way.

Jr is a dangerous character for a team that lacks leadership and I do think that this team until Lin-Sanity lacked it. I hope this rejuvenated locker room can keep this big talent personality in check.

If thats the case he may be able to start here. I kinda think initially he will come off the bench but I have a sneaky suspicion they promised him the money and minutes.

[franchize]

How about we see who plays better with who and award the starting spot to that player... the old fashioned way of doing things.

I honestly wish Balkman got more playing time. He played well in the preseason and in spot minutes. I think he does all the things people claim Jeffries does. He's also a pretty good finisher. I can't say I'll miss Balkman, and JR Smith is certainly an upgrade, but it woulda been nice to see him get his just due. Much rather see Bibby go who's proven he sucks now :oldlol:

Yeah, I'm not getting that either.

Melo hasn't taken more shots since he's been here, but he has taken more threes, but that's due to the offense.

Nobody hates Jeremy Lin. I just hate kneejerk comments. You know...kinda like this one. How exactly did Jeremy Lin improve EVERY aspect of the game? I think anyone would be foolish to hate on Lin. He's playing out of his mind. I just don't think blowing things out of proportion and declaring him "franchise saviour" is a pre-requisite to be a Knicks fan. Forgive me but I'd like to see a little more than 2 weeks of beating up on bad teams before I declare him an elite player.

Every year we search and search for our team's cancer because the media declares one player the Achilles' heel or malcontent.I finally realize what the problem is. The NY media is the Knicks Achilles Heel. They mirror what is going on in politics right now. Conservatives blaming Obama for things when the stats say the exact opposite. (ex "Obama wants to kill private sector jobs")

[Clutch]

You got me wrong. Of course neither J.R.Smith or Melo will take 30 shots per game.

But there are times when both of them shoot too much.

I just wanted to say they need to play within a system.

I don't mind Melo taking 20 shots per game if he takes them in rhythm or in a few post up/isolations plays.
But I don't want to see him holding the ball for 10 seconds and taking a tough shot.

Same thing with J.R.Smith. He takes a lot of dumb shots. Sometimes they go in but I want him to play smart and not chuck shots anytime he gets an opportunity to do so.

Check out my posts. I've been defending Melo since he got here.

You'll be pulling your hair out, this system encourages shooting the ball when open.

When JR comes in he will have games when he will be firing away.

Which is probably why he's here, there are times when our guards won't take a shot, trying to look for a better one, only to contribute to an unnecessary turnover.

JR helps in this regard.

I encourage shooting the ball when wide open. I don't have any problems with that,especially because J.R.Smith is a good shooter.

But I don't want to take him contested threes in transition with 20 seconds left on the shot clock and I saw him doing that multiple times.

What do you mean he has improved the team in every phase of the game? We still get outrebounded, and our 3 point shooting still stinks.

What he has done is made the team cut down on taking the bad long 2 pointers. He is attacking the rim and we are shooting a much higher percentage of good shots.

Honestly I would honestly say Lin has essentially saved the season, and he's doing it playing as good as any pg in the league.

Do I expect him to keep this up? Not the scoring but the kid has showed some things that I do expect to continue, mainly good pg play, setting up teammates for a good shot, running the pnr, and dictating the pace of the game.

Sure he's done it against some of the not-so-goods in the league, but I'm sure those opponents all believed they had done their math.

(ex "Obama wants to kill private sector jobs")

I try to avoid politics at all costs ( I leave that to my wife to chat about).

I do think that the Knicks media policy helps control what comes out though.

Honestly Melo is taking more heat than Ewing did, and it's plain sad.

His college coach should not have to go on radio shows defending Melo like he's done.

Some have seriously called him a "cancer", and that's just plain ridiculous.

Every great player doesn't win it all, but even if Melo did it, some still would not be happy.

[Clutch]

Lin has been huge for our offense.

You could see that just by watching the Kings game.
With Lin in the lineup offense looks smooth.
Lin attacks the basket and sets up teammates for either an easy dunk/alley oop or a wide open three pointer.

With Shumpert at the point all the team did was standing behind the three point line and chucking bad shots. Why ? Because there was no one who could penetrate and create easy opportunities for the rest of the team.

I think Lin will be able to keep this up. I don't expect him to play like he did recently but I'm pretty confident he will be able to attack the basket and create for his teammates for the rest of the season.

13/8 is something I expect and I would be very satisfied with that.

Yea I think brother Rameek's post was an example of going too far lol No way you can say Lin is a better defender than Shump at the point. Nor can you say our turnovers have gotten better.

Lin has been our best facilitator all year however. Furthermore, he is the bets pg fit in this system since Steve NAsh.

[MightyWhitey]

When I first heard that jr was coming to the Knicks I was happy. But now I am really thinking about it and think that this was not a good decision. Jr is a problem child and he could easily remove the rhythm of the game that Lin has created and knock fields and shump back to minor minutes. So far Lin is working well with chandler, fields, and shump. Amare seems to need more time to progress with Lin but I think they can be a real tag team.
Jr smith will not be a good addition to the teams chemistry. But then again I may eat my words and I hope I do.

I think bringing in Smith makes the rotation correctly proportioned, instead of some of the sets we see out there.

This team needs scoring on the wing besides Melo, and JR definitely is not afraid to shoot it like Fields is at times, and more accurate than Shump is from there.

But he won't be taking their minutes, he'll be ensuring that the one's who really are playing too much stay within their normal effective minute allotment, thus getting his fair share of 20-25 minutes in the process.

I fully expect Tyson out of all of the players, to make sure JR doesn't even think of messing things up.

[bluechox2]

signs two-year, $4.3M deal

That's good. I like J.R. I hope we keep him for a long time. Regardless, he is a scorer and will gel easily. We need players knocking down shots, makes it difficult on the defense.

This will go down as one of the greatest signings in the nba- you will be amazed how easily he creates shots for both himself and others- if d'antoni plays him with the other scorers he will be way more efficiant of a scorer and more of a playmaker than the "chucker" you might be expecting- things like a starting pg off the rookie wage waiver list and a guy like jr smith for 2 million dollars for 2. Years- these are championship building moves, total luck in a way but also not because of the timing and the way the knicks have been putting the team together.
