Honestly, I hear you!
I'm not sure what to make of Jackson in his current role and I suspect you are right on all accounts... but he is responsible for drafting KP. Yes, I believe the opt out is after this season, I just don't think he will opt out based on recent comments. As for Rose, that's why I liked the trade! He was an upgrade for this season. After that? No strings. And I do believe we can go over the cap to sign him, if desired. Melo is incredibly frustrating, though I will admit, deadly as a spot up shooter when KP is the first option. As for the Triangle, its been disappearing, at a surprising rate. I'm honestly surprised Jackson has allowed it to happen. I'm not an expert on the Triangle or any offensive for that matter (I just understand the fundamentals as a former player), but if they are running the triangle they are doing a hell of a job disguising it!![Grin]()
For instance, it's rare to see a PG cut to the corner when watching a Knicks game. Also, great point on Rose-Melo pick and roll. They actually made the greatest effort of the season last night to go to that. I believe 3 times in a row, in fact.![]()
