"Who are the Knicks? Brunson, Brunson and some other Knickas" " - Official '23 NYK Offseason Thread

[Peter Popoff]

Y'all swear they hiding Paul George and Amare on the end of the bench.

Cam doesn't play because the guards they drafted are better two way players than him.

Obi doesn't play because he can't play center and they have 3 centers. Not to mention, the dude in front of him is an All Star and All NBA as a Knick.

Are we watching the same games!?

Cam is better than RJ and Obi has been shown to be quite effective at the center.
Trade them to the lakers, suns or Brooklyn and watch the FO look like idiots.

Thibs and Leon are extremely extremely close. They’ve been together since the 90’s and Leon has followed Thibs everywhere. The reason I’m saying this is that Thibs would never undercut Leon Rose like this.

Remember Thibs wanted to send Obi Toppin to the G-league his rookie year but he didn’t out of respect to Leon.

I’m starting to believe that the trading for Reddish wasn’t done by Leon but it was done by Perry and Leon just shrugged it off since they didn’t care about that draft pick at all. Thibs will never undercut Leon but he has no loyalty or connection to Perry or especially any loyalty to Wes since Wes tried to convince Leon to fire Thibs last year.

Extremely extremely close?




Not once but twice?




And we’ve all heard the rumors about Thibs not being married…




Pause.

Mcbride is not better than Cam.

Put down the pipe breh.

The scouting report for us is you take away Brunson & put the ball in Randle's hands & force him to make decisions. It's why we're losing more in these crunch time moments than winning

@ “quite effective at the center.”

@ “quite effective at the center.”

On small ball rotations.

Statistically they’ve been in top half offensively all year.

But when watching them play you see how trash the offense is, especially when Ju and Brunson struggle with their shots.

It’s a perfect example that stats will never trump old fashion watching the game and drawing conclusions from there

Truth bro. I really think teams let Randle get his at times because when he cools off the odds are if he has the ball in his hands, he'll cause a TO or make a bad play which shifts the momentum. We've seen it since the playoffs with ATL (I sound like a broken record)

Man, I sound like a broken record too. Instead of going back and forth with ppl in this thread caping for Jules or RJ, I just basically checked out and stopped watching then laughing at post that point out the incompetence of the organization or anything pertaining to RJ or Randle.

And yes, I see teams blatantly passing off on defending them 2 and just honing in on Brunson. It's when the bench comes in, that they start pulling out all their artillery and playing somewhat serious.

Hell, I used to get mad when Chuck and Shaq would diss this team but now I just laugh with them or when other teams poke fun of the schemes that made them break MSG records. I get why they love playing at the garden. It's to embarrass them. Let's rip the bandaid off. I'm on the same boat as @Daniel. as far as how I feel.

Edit:

Reading this article you get the sense Reddish was going to air out Thibs for benching RJ but Barrett stopped it.

 

[RickyGQ]

If they getting Obi we should be able to keep a pick.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

That’s a great deal.

Make it happen leon.

 

[In The Zone '98]

Plausible. But Thibs would step down rather than play Sims or Hart as the back up 4.

 

[TOAD99]

Easy deal
