The Knicks scoring only 87 points seems ridiculously bad right now. The league average for points per team per game is around 174 right now, by my calculations (which involved math). 87 is just not good enough.
Looking at the boxscore, there were a lot of culprits for the meager offensive output. All the supposedly “good” players, plus all of the not-so-good ones except Damyean Dotson. Dotson = good. Rest of Knicks = bad.
Is this gonna be like a Langston Galloway situation where the Knicks unearth an unknown prospect and turn him into a reasonable offensive player, then he gets too good and they let him leave in free agency and then it turns out he’s not really that good after all? It’s been so long since I’ve done a Galloway highlight… anyway, I hope things turn out different for Dotson. Most likely case is, he sticks around for a few years while sometimes having games sorta like this (including putback layups somehow), but most of the time not. Yeah, that’s real specific.
