Superstar
Knicks got outplayed when it mattered and Thibs got outcoached. At the end of the day, they're still ahead of schedule with three picks in this draft and cap flexibility to bring back who they want and build the way they want. They just proved that they've got a ways to go and still need more talent. Leon Rose has a lot to work with, so we'll see how he builds now. I'd bring Randle back and try to consolidate picks and space for a star to take weight off him. Try to bring Rose and Bullock back (but Bully as a bench piece, playoffs proved he's too limited for a starting role). Hopefully depth comes from within as RJ, IQ, and Obi develop plus Vildoza arrives.

Whatever you do, keep y'all assets, and pray a superstar or at least a consistent star becomes available via trade within the next few years.

Much respect to the knicks fans in this thread. I actually like some of your young guys, just wish thibs could've incorporated them more.
Y'all don't gotta blow shyt up. Just some retooling and trimming up the edges. Shrewd deals like when we got capela for Evan Turner.

On one hand Randle underperformed he failed to make open jumpers and a predictable triple threat game was exposed. His average touch and lack of explosion and wingspan showed on contested drives against a real rim protector.
On the other hand there was zero adjustments or innovation made by Thibs and he was surrounded by a mediocre supporting cast of shooters and ball handlers.
Then you have the fact that dude just isn’t good enough for the usage required to maximize him. A maxed out Randle is a guaranteed treadmill team shyt a fringe playoff team moving forward if major improvements aren’t made. Teams around the league will make moves and fans will come back next season.
I also don’t like two bully balling leftys with him and Barrett. It just doesn’t bode well for playoff ball.

Mitchell wouldn’t have changed the outcome of this series.
I would actually consider selling high on him but I know how y’all feel about son.
His Rebounding alone would’ve made a big difference.
Biggest spot he was missed was his lob presence...Noel has stone hands and Taj not built like that.
We already know with Mitch you just have to throw it up there and he got it.
Trae Killed us, but Capela was the MVP of the series, with Hunter not far behind

We had a far worse season last year when he was dubious he'll be fine. The spirit of Kobe will reignite himOnly thing I’m worried about is randle’s mental fortitude, can he handle this long season and channel it and improve

So, I'm of the school of thought that if the nikka that beats your ass, in turn, gets HIS ASS BEAT...
That's just another L for me, because that means the second nikka could beat my ass.
For that reason, I want to say we got beat by the best team in the playoffs.
So what am I saying?
I'm rooting for yall and that bald headed young master splinter.
I hope y'all fukk everyone up... especially Brooklyn.
Good shyt

If you watched this game and all the rebounds Atlanta just out hustled us for and don't think Mitchell would've at least made this a closer game, I gotta assume you just don't appreciate his game

Good series fellas. See you bruhs around this time next year. I know y'all will come back stronger, would love to see somebody like Dame in a Knicks uni.

My priorities this off-season
1. Get us a real point guard. Someone who can run an offense and is at least a shooting threat
2. A legit 3 that can take randle’s starting spot. Someone who can play some defense and shoot the 3 decently
3. Good backup bigs. That can rebound and get a block or 2
4. Get more picks or move up but we have to get a player that has legit superstar or star potential
5. Star hunting
