Top 3 pick?
Money man, $120M contract?
Guy the fanbase is behind?
Yes, no matter how bad he bums it up he gets handled with kiddie gloves. All type of excuses will come out he has the flu, he’s just going through a slump, he isn’t being used right, he always starts slow, he’s only 22, he’s a third option, it’s only a matter of time, it’s someone else’s fault (usually Thibs or Julius). During this offseason the majority of Knicks fans were adamantly against including Barrett in any trade for a star player.
Barrett and Ntilikina have/had an immunity with Knicks fans I haven’t seen with previous Knicks prospects. This guy is in his fourth season, our leading shot taker, and has a $120M extension kicking in.
Let’s stop with the excuses and the bullshyt disingenous talking points that people won’t be happy unless he’s
Luka.
