This bullshyt right here. Unless it’s a serious injury let him play the best defenders in the league. Rest him against the teams we wanna catch at the bottom like hawks, bulls, grizzlies, etc.

Bro, they're 4-12 in the last 16 games. They already lost three games to the Bulls and two against the Magic. Lakers without Ball and KCP blew them out. No Conley, Gasol and Parsons, the Grizzlies punked them. The team is trending downwards either way. Nothing wrong with being proactive after KP said his knee felt stiff this morning on their longest road trip so far.

I don't trust this guy but some heads on realgm say he did nail the Phil Jackson firing a week in advance. His article reads like someone who pulled all the anonymous source rumors from the past few days and threw them into one big speculative article.

Knicks Shakeup Looms As Patience Runs Low

The good if true? Kanter, Lee, Lance all on the block. KOQ possibly out and Willy's asking price being a first round pick which is fair.

The bad? Mark Jackson.

I do think it's odd timing with KOQ sitting tn while the Warriors are interested. Teams typically push a guy out there to impress a team if it has interest, but maybe he just really did hurt himself. KP is prolly just getting rested Spurs style.

Man, I like listening to the Michael Kay show, but Jesus, listening to him talk about the Knicks is :snoop: Sounds like every irrational Knicks fan I've ever come across.

He doesn't know anything about basketball, so he parrots the talking points he hears others say. They use the yelling and outrage to mask their ignorance.

What's he saying?
Basically what @Sampson said

It's :mindblown:
He knows the team is bad but goes on a tirade when they lose. When they beat the Jazz then lost to the Lakers, he said something to the effect of "don't let one win gas you up, who do you think you are, the Warriors" I was :what: Also the constant bron knob slobbing. Since KP is the focal point of the team now, he should lead us to the finals like bron. He treats KP like he treated Melo, you ain't bron so you trash. I think a week or two ago, Alan Hahn came on at the end of the show and told him to pump his breaks on the expectations. And he sounds just like the Frank haters in this thread, down to the DSJ :bow:
