A Blown Knee & Flat Tires-Another NY Pothole Year: 17-18 Knicks Season Thread

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

Knicks always doing some ass backwards shyt

- give a flabby Noah a huge contract
- give tHjr 4th option in Atlanta a huge contract
- give Ron baker a huge contract

- place Hernangomez on the back burner
- place kuz on the back burner
- don't resign justin holiday

 

[Shogun]

You know what that is? That's a W. Y'all ready to eat this Win?

 

[Miles Davis]

If jack or frank get injured we'll have to give him or baker some minutes though.

You putting evil on our French Prince?

 

[GhostoftheMan]

i knew Frank would be piff

Spoiler: ...

i'll admit i was wrong

 

[Jmare007]

Is Noah really gonna play legit minutes

Willy gonna rot in the bench and end up being traded too

 

[DPresidential]

Low key, I hope Baker can start getting more time as the season progresses - w/ less minutes going to Jack and Frank eventually taking starter minutes.

--------------------------------

The fact that Willy is on the bench only means we are getting some amazing production on the court. And honestly, w/ the eye test, Kanter - 25 years old - is proving to be a very good compliment to a Power Forward Kristaps.

This guy is literally always at the right spot for a fukking rebound, it's astonishing.

Not only that, Willy needs to see exactly what type of production is expected of him. If he has the heart that KP has, he'll just bang out during practice and he'll take advantage of those inevitable chances to perform when Kanter & O'Quinn get into foul trouble.

I'm hoping Tim has a great game tonight, he's lowkey been pretty good all around the past few games, his shot selection can distract you from that though.

Aye even when his shot isn't falling he still impacts the game in other ways, something he never used to do. Still don't think he was worth that huge deal but I've been pleasantly surprised so far.

He is never gonna be worth that money but he'll still be a pretty solid player throughout it I think. He's good enough to keep around.

 

[Rev]

Is that loser, Malik Monk, playing tonight? Need Frank to lock his ass down.

 

[ISO]

The Knicks would rather play Beasley instead of Kuz.

Beasley is better than Kuz.

 

[Shogun]

I can't even picture old ass Noah playing with this team

Hopefully those off season workouts with Melo has him ready :trollmelo:

I need to update my custom smilies.

Got my fingers crossed that since we're playing Charlotte, the local bars in South Carolina will be rocking the game. Yall know I'm not tryna miss the games this week it's only two games, but with the way these cats have been playing I might miss some hype ish and have to relive it DVR'ed.

Anyway, even if we deal Kuz for a second; which is fair imo, dude deserves a fair shot at getting on the court and McDermott kinda took on his role but is younger and more athletic...I'd still consider releasing Sessions pretty damned and giving Burke an audition with the way he's playing in the G-League. It's G-League and I doubt there's too much to be made of it but being better than Sessions is not a crazy ask with how far he's fallen off.

Burke should be up here, Jack and Sessions can go.
