    • Knicks down about 16 in the first half tonight at Indiana.

      The plan seems to be to fall behind by at least 20 this time before inserting Superman and watching the comeback.

      • Shirley, Ron will get some time in the 2nd half.

        Update: The Knicks had to insure this loss was in the bag before putting Ron on the floor. Ron starts the 4th quarter with the Knicks down by 26 at 96-70.

        Ron has a steal and an assist in his first two minutes.

          The Knicks are down by 26 entering the fourth. What a mess. Seems like a good time to turn to point guard Ron Baker.

          • In less than half of the 4th quarter, Baker has shaved a 26 point lead to 15.

            Not sure he can bring them back all the way. But then....Rob Banker.

                • This is a link to a very active Knick forum. Entertaining that the fans really love Ron. At least most do.

                  Their thread for tonight's game was subtitled "Welcome to Baker Street".

                  • If you have DirecTv, MSG has a Knick postgame. Al Trautwig, Wally Szczerbiak and another guy...tonight basically an hour arguing about Ron Baker.

                    So much fun.

                    • Was so hoping the Phoenix Suns nabbed him in the draft. The Knicks "black hole" was distrubing to me...but damn that young man has the ballz and savvy to shine in the Big Apple! GO RON!!! Make every GM jealous!!!

                        • MILWAUKEE — Jeff Hornacek “wanted’’ Ron Baker Friday night for the entire fourth quarter and now the undrafted rookie no longer has to worry about sticking with the Knicks for the entire season. Du…

                          • INDIANAPOLIS — Now that the losing streak is over, Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek had a new dilemma: how to divvy up minutes at point guard after undrafted rookie Ron Baker led an unlikely fourth-quart…

                            • Hornacek: “He’s [Ron] a smart, heady guy. I don’t have to call plays when he has the ball. He’s smart enough to just do that.” (from the NYT article: http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/08/sp...tial.html?_r=0 )

                              How many rookie point guards, outside of Ron and Fred, would any NBA head coach allow to call the plays? Ron has been in so few NBA games it's almost crazy to think about.

                                Nice shots of Baker in the video. I know 2 games do not give real stats ... but who cares ... over the two quarters Baker played the Knicks averaged 36 points per quarter and allowed 21 points per quarter. Without Baker they averaged 25.5 points per quarter and allowed 32 points per quarter. Meaningless because of sample size ... but fun anyway.
