    If we're using a single game +/- then I'm assuming you would conclude Hart is way better than Dame as well?

    Dude also shoots just under 35% from three and his defense has progressively gotten better throughout the season.

    I didn’t conclude anything. I just asked a question.

    what has Cam done?

    we invested the highest pick since Dame on the kid and he's playing behind a guy no better than him who is in year 4 after busting out on two other teams, who is also a FA in 15 games.

    mindless strategy here and no direction.

    we have a genuine need to develop Shaedon and get him on the floor as much as possible. Not playing him at all in a game where we get destroyed in the second half while Grant is sitting is idiotic.

    What was the purpose of pointing out Hart's single game +/- when asking the question?

    Hart was the better player in the trade, everyone knows that.

    The Blazers weren't going to re-sign Hart this summer, so losing him for nothing would've been worse than getting a 1st round pick and Reddish. Knicks are happy, and will pay him a lot of money. I'm guessing the Blazers are glad they got a 1st round pick for him.

    Watching the game, Billups fell into a paper bag and couldn't coach his way out.

    I think we have the talent to be a decent team - not contending but decent. However, no matter the talent, I don't think Billups gets us anywhere.

    Knicks announcers acting like the Knicks are good. We’re just sucking.

    we give up double digit leads more than any other team in the league.

    Give me an example of one thing Sharpe does better then Cam? Cam's shooting percentages, Rebounding numbers, assists numbers are all better then Sharpe. So what is it that makes you think Sharpe should be playing more then him? Just because Shaedon was drafted high by the Blazers and Cam is a FA after this season?

    We need as good of a pick as we can get. If the Knick can beat us in Portland, without their best player, at the end of a long road trip, we are in serious need of more talent.

    Since I’m in NY and YTTV doesn’t have MSG, I had to sign up for free trial of Fubo. What a waste of time.

    this game is simply confirmation of what we've seen all season. it's not some "aha" moment.

    Hopefully sitting on the bench will motivate him to really work hard in the off season.
