Knicks at Hornets 11-11-15 – Game Recap
Written by Matt Adwar – @theknicksguy
Kristaps Porzingis hit the game winner with 0.6 seconds left ….except it didn’t count. It could not have been any closer as the New York Knicks suffer a devastating loss against the Charlotte Hornets 95-93 as they fall to 4-5.
The Knicks were in control for most of the game as they held a 12-point lead at one time. But the 16 turnovers and 24 fouls were just too much for the Knicks to come back from.
Derek Fisher after the game “People oftentimes focus on the fourth quarter and the finish and the last plays but a lot of times the first through the third quarter makes a difference”
Head coach Derek Fisher did not seem happy at his teams performance down the stretch and did not like the excessive fouls. “They got to the free throw line 28 times and that’s too many”
Tip Ins
Arron Afflalo looked great in his season debut with the Knicks scoring 12 points and adding 6 rebounds. Continue reading
2015/16 Knicks Roster Power Rankings – Week 1
| Happy first day of the season day. As usual there are a lot of new faces this season (8), and this opening day roster only has 3 guys from last seasons opening day roster (probably a good thing). Since the Knicks haven’t played yet this is most likely going to be the most positive rankings you’ll see this season. This weeks rankings is based on the preseason, expectations for the regular season, and gut instinct. Lets get to it! | |||
| Rank | Player | Comments | Last weeks Rank |
| 1 | Anthony, Carmelo | He’s the best player on the team and it’s not even close. Melo looks fully healthy and ready to post 20-25 points per game. His defense and shooting percentage are things to keep an eye on. | – |
| 2 | Lopez, Robin | A center! A real center that does centery things! We started last season with Dalembert who just got cut by Dallas for being fat. I’d say this is a huge upgrade. | – |
| 3 | O’Quinn, Kyle | Last year Acy had the #3 spot at one point. A high energy guy that can rebound. Kyle, please be better than Acy! | – |
| 4 | Grant, Jerian | Our backup point guard until Calderon gets injured or just turns into dust. Lots of potential for this guy. I’m getting hyped. | – |
| 5 | Galloway, Langston | Galloway is already a nice defender and rebounder. If he can work on his shot he’ll be a keeper. Continue reading | |
