Why would Donte say this is what happens when they let you run things to Rick though? Rick isn't running shyt? This makes zero sense now.


Ofc he isn't but he is on the staff and white donte wanted to talk a lil sht to someone. Honestly appears that papa Brunson has thin skin.

He clearly said in the video “Thanks for the trade, Thibs.” Dude is lying and he looked shook in the postgame.

Worst part of the game is Randle and melo ducking the heat. Cowardly behavior.

Probably something going on behind closed doors. No reason to throw your best friend's father under the bus instead of Thibs.

Like when he said Pacers aren’t like that - didn’t help matters

He's acting like a big baby. Divo was the odd man out from a position standpoint and a contract stand point. They even tried to move Mitch first. As far as whats going on behind the scenes...have no idea but I know I'd rather have MIkal over Divo. Mikal has more value
on the court AND in a trade if we wanted to move him(I'm not suggesting this)- Grow up Divo and understand that he had to be moved -nothing personal...

Donte was our 2nd option for a lot of last year. IIRC he was top 5 in three pointers made last year. The dude deserves to start. He had the chance to win a title with his college buddies and it got taken away right before the season. He was probably reluctantly willing to sacrifice to do that and now he’s a bench player for some other team. Damn straight I’d be pissed about it. There def feels like there’s something missing that went on behind the scenes that hasn’t made it into any reporting.

Depends. There was another situation about a layup that Thibs and Donte were joking about.

Waiting for news to drop that that Knicks targeted Towns and folks is mad.

At least now the pg thread isn't filled up with talking about an unnamed player...

Let's be honest, if there's some truth to this, they were probably making fun of Payne.

I'd be mad as hell too if I was a ginger underpaid one of the best knicks in the postseason then lost my job to Tobias Bridges. We're lucky he didn't shoot up the place.

Does it matter who it was directed at. Papa Brunson came at him hot. As an the older man in the situation and knowing this is one of your kids friends who got shipped from a dream job he should have been the mature one.

Unless I'm blind, I don't even see Thibs on the bench during those free throws.
