Breh, I know I'm not crazy.
I specifically remember Obi being waved off by IQ COUNTLESSS TIMES.

Either way, I'm happy about what I see from their chemistry and I'm happy what you're saying.
That’s cause IQ’s first, second and third instinct is to get his. (Not even a shot, just reality). But there was a point where IQ was the only person who could find Obi got lobs. It was baffling.

IQ's reads advanced like three levels by the end of the season. He started to show real command by the end of the season.

I'm watching indy vs charlotte before the game. Cam is in the crowd between Scott Perry and Leon Rose...Bodes well for him imo.

Photo evidence:


Also, Mathurin looks as good as I thought this first game and shout out to Brady Manek making an appearance. Kai Jones who we traded for the Charlotte pick that got Cam looks like he's another year away. Big man that can handle the rock (took a defensive board the length of the court for a finish earlier), but his interior defense and shooting are still not there.

Yeah, I never believed those Cam trade rumors either.

The only guys they might trade is Fournier and Rose and they would be part of a package to get a better player.

This team as “designed” is getting to the point where we should not expect changes for a few years as the core matures. As Knicks fans we aren’t use to that because “chaos reigns” but they are getting guys who career wise have two to three more contracts in them for a reason.

Brunson/IQ
RJ/Grimes
???/Reddish
Randle/Obi

That 9 out of 10 of Thibs 10 man rotation for 2-3 seasons.
