I thought he was putting up pretty good numbers at the 4, hope he stays there

Thoughts on Knight..... always injured. Always.

Knight used to be really solid from medium range too until the Wildcats got hold of him. It's not a shot he takes much anymore and I wonder how much practice he puts into it. His J is noticeably flatter these days.

basketball today is trending toward smaller/mobile power forward who can shoot three's, Wildcats going against the grain in that regard. At this stage of his career - older, less mobile - I think he's better suited to Center, of course he's going to say he prefers PF, less toll on the body with another big guy playing alongside him.

A Jawai and Knight offense can work well, but Perth need three shooters on the floor with them, otherwise creates major spacing issues. That's why Prather isn't the best fit. Wildcats will only go as far as their 3-pointer shooters take them.

What a warrior, unbelievable performance

Wrote some nice things about Matty Knight in todays recap

He's a solid player in either position. Massive effort in Wollongong yesterday.

Absolutely legendary effort against the Hawks. Can't recall a better game from him, massive minutes and hit a few from mid-range also.
If he can keep playing like that, then playing big minutes with Jawai could really work.

Matty Knight as a #beastunleashed. All NBL 1st if he keeps this up and doesn't burn out / injure himself.

Not before Dewey Michaels.. kidding.

"One more concussion and he will have to retire. That's what they said after his last concussion last season from memory."

Yeah, he's a worry. I cringed when he tried to take that charge on Conkln and went sliding backward towards the baseline corporate boxes. Just missed them, luckily.

FMD.
How does a thread about Matthew Knight degenerate into yet another "Jawai is Fat" rant?

I remember Knight being concussed when the former Crocs guard took him down, then something else happened a few days/games later, but what other concussion incidents has he had? I don't recall any.

From memory he took a knock to the head last season that caused a bit of concern? It's been a bit of a constant, some minor knocks even seem to cause a bit of concern due to the amount of concussions he's had. He's got the opposite of feet of clay.

Road game @ GC Blaze he came down from a rebound contest without his feet under him and hit the back of his head hard on the court

I'm curious to know why Knight has not considered some sort of head protection. Something similar to what Jonathan Thurston has worn in the NRL.

I don't think they were to everyone's cents of humour.

Always loved his game and I disagree that basketball is heading towards smaller more mobile 4's that can hit the 3 pointer. It is heading towards bigger PF's who are mobile and can hit the 3 pointer.
