im surprised it took Obi so long to snap
thibs never put him in a position to succeed

-playing him 8 mins or less a half
-giving him no rope to make mistakes,
-camping him out at the three point line like he's steve novak
-taking him out of games even when he's playin well.


bro did da best he could under circumstances set up for him to fail. Even developed a decent three point shot.

@Daniel.

This is exactly why we say what said about Thibs & his coaching. Who would wanna play for a coach like this? It's a shame the way the FO has allowed him to handle Obi. Thibs could've built up his trade value this season which would've helped in this draft
Cause if he likes you your golden? What’s hard to understand about this?

Is it because of Thibs or is it because he has an ALL NBA player in front of him who's obviously gonna play 36mpg based on his production?
Right. Thibs is a dikk, but Obi’s biggest flaw is he’s not a rim protector, and that’s the only way he woulda got minutes, as a back up center. I don’t think the shyt was personal. I’ve seen Knicks fans saying we went up more for Knox and Frank than we did Obi but that’s just a testament to how honest those arguments were. We weren’t just saying to play the kids for the hell of it, it was just that there was no one in front of those two that genuinely deserved more playing time than them at the time. Randle clearly is better for the team than Obi. Both in the short and long term.

Yea, I think he's gonna blossom wherever he goes. This is not like a Frank Nıggalina or Kevin Knox situation where he's a straight up bum that was given a plethora of times to show up.

Randle is the starting 4, avg 25/10/5

There's no reason for Obi to take his minutes.
And Obi was taken out of games where he showed up and Randle was hurt.

He was also taken out of games where Randle was trash and Obi showed up.

This autistic mafụcker needs to be fired. He has a hard on and blind loyalty towards Randle.

The nıgga has games where he stat pads to get those numbers after a cold 3 quarters and they still lose.

Can't wait till Obi's gone and does absolutely nothing with another team
Sixth man at best but even then I don't see him going anywhere
Tweener who's a weak defender and also a weak rebounder
Probably the most overrated Knick and people who pretend he's anywhere near Randle's class are delusional

Randle doesnt need to play as much minutes that he does when we had obi..especially not this past season..Obi showed he was more than capable.

and mayb randle doesnt get hurt or choke in da playoffs if he's more rested. Thibs minutes management is horrible and now we are losin obi with randle coming off a surgery.
