"Today's Knickle Bag will be Tomorrow's 10 Keys: Be Patient"- Official '24-25 NY Knicks Season Thread

He gotta figure out a way to feature himself.

He's a big man. He depends on the ball handlers to feed him the rock.

Going from figuring out how to get Julius less shots to figuring out how to get KAT more shots is fukking annoying.

Lets not act like he doesn't try to take dudes off the dribble from the 3pt line. He definitely had the ball enough. Just didn't make the best of it

If hart is injured or minutes become limited and he gotta come off the bench... should the Start Hulkporti or try to fit Deuce in there?

He barely touched the ball and took only eight shots tonight. FOH

Silver lining is we get the McBrunson starting bykecourt sooner rather than later. True 5 out spacing, but big up to Josh for understanding the assignment and being a willing 3 point shooter.

 

[tremonthustler1]

I agree with this. KAT way too talented to be taking 7 shots and picking up 6 fouls.

this is KAT for you.

For whatever reason, he doesn't shoot enough. He should be attempting as many threes as Steph. Straight up. 200-250 threes made a year should be his benchmark, but he lets too many old farts criticize him for having a three pointer.

I’m going big.

 

[seemorecizzy]

these guys are tough guys when mitch isnt around lol
we still had a 13 point lead. Gotta close that

Everything I have seen makes me believe we don’t need another trade we need Mitchell healthy and that would unlock the next gear on this team. Precious too.

You couldn’t play IHart and Mitchell together and while Randle was great he was 6’8 at PF. We add Mitchell and play big with the Cavs and They would fall apart. You just mix Precious and OG at PF and the front court situation is GOOD.
We just need execution. I don’t think we can reach that next year without Mitch and Precious healthy and getting minutes.

 

[Wargames]

As much as some of you talk down on Mitch, he wouldn't be letting the Cavs big men do this

Bro for two years straight he was the second best player on the team behind Brunson during the playoffs. People forget but he was a major part of the Knicks winning against the Cavs and 76ers.

Yeah, they would of dog walked these bozos if Mitch played tonight.

Bro, I said it in an earlier post, Mitch sons these clowns just about every time we play them

The thing is this would have been a great game to play a front court of Mitch and KaT together. Like a real torture chamber, and we know KaT knows how to play like that too, same for Brunson.

like idk, I just hope everyone is healthy come the playoffs.

Truth. They feasted in the paint tonight & with a healthy Mitch, he limits that. And a bonus would be moving OG back to SF where he can really impact the game defensively like last season
