Re: Can The Steph-Francis Backcourt Work?

the 3 best players at the moment are jamal crawford, francis and marbury .

it can work if they are given the freedom and time to make things happen, to do this it probably means more 3 guard line ups than people are anticipating, and taking minutes from small forwards Qrich balkman and jeffries.

against alot of lineups this is a good idea...against some others not so much .

I want to go on record with saying making curry the focus of the offense is fool's gold , he is much better finding spots to hurt teams in a quick hitting offense...but bogging the offense down to make curry a primary decision maker is a disaster waiting to happen.

i also like the idea of jalen staying on the roster as a pg/sf...he played pg under zeke in indy so he knows the offense and can run it well...at times the knicks can really give it to teams letting jalen run things and putting some combination of JC , francis or marbury in a pure scorer mode...i dont really see to many backcourts with defenders enough to stop 2 threats like them.
