You realize jericho Sims is 22, Knox is only 21?
I still believe in Knox.

I think it’s awful how we traded all those assets for him and paid him such a huge contract! Typical Knicks!!!!!
I don't care either way. Anything is better than Payton, but people are shooting their loads like we're getting anything resembling Kemba Walkers prime.
He has chronic arthritis. Not a sore knee. He doesn't "keep getting hurt", he has no cartilage in his left knee.
Deluded sheep in here losing their minds and people from other boards are just laughing at our clowning over a guys swan song for a couple years at home. This is MSG ticket revenue material and nothing more. I feel bad for Kemba because he's a great teammate and a competitor but his knee just betrayed him, 4 surgeries on his left knee years of steroidal injections and now he's been trying stem cells to eek out another couple years.
If he could play he wouldn't be a Knick right now, he'd be on the 76ers or some competitive team. Nice story that he gets to play a few games at home, can't wait for the coming home redux.
Deluded sheep? Relax. Go outside. You’ve been internetting too long.

Totally came out of left field but finally a legit low risk high reward move. I was worried about rose starting after the $ they gave him so this is perfect. We're now deep enough where kemba's usage doesn't have to be crazy high either. Love it.

I have to think that we can squeeze 48 minutes a night out of these four guards (especially given the way that Randle likes to handle the ball).
Vildoza and McBride won't get any minutes, except in case of emergency
Even if Rose or Kemba gets injured, we're just gonna shorten the rotation and make Burks the backup PG.

gotta admit i grumbled at the randle move, then was really grumbling after the start to the off-season, but the fournier and kemba moves make it all make sense. VERY interesting team, tempered excitement here, positivity for the first time in a long time.

i just want iq to get a lot of minutes. he showed a lot. the advanced stats all say he should have played a lot more last year.

I'm relaxed. It's the other people who think we're getting All-NBA 3rd team Kemba who are emotional. I feel bad for them.
"WE bAcK!" "rEmEmBEr tWo DaYS aGO!"
It shows how deluded and scarred the fan base is. They can't even look at the guys injury history, it would force them to wake up from the dream.

this is a colossal upgrade from elfrid payton and we have arguably the best backup PG in the NBA with Rose who should have won 6moy. This is the most stacked we've been at PG in the history of the franchise probably
