OG will be such a good defender for you guys, The one issue is, I'm worried Thibs will run him into the ground.

Craptors fans seem to think they've fleeced us and Knicks Twitter thinks we overpaid.

Time will tell. I'm desperate to see OG play and let Knicks fans see what he can do. He's not too old to pull a Randle and level up.

So does OG start or Thibs do his honorary "gotta get a few practices in" first.

Precious playing for a contract and our only mobile PF. I hear hes a Thibs guy let’s see. He likes to handle and shoot. He’s fast for a big. I think he’s very important.

We got the best player in the deal. Either both teams benefitted or we won the deal, but in no way whatsoever did TO take advantage of us

Knick players suck when they’re in NY but once they’re traded, they’re steals and we got fleeced and all this ****.

Good thing it doesn’t matter what they think.

I think we are worse short term, but this move allows us to possibly build a contender....maybe ....

He now has Quickley's role as the offensive hub off the bench.

As a Raptors fans, It's always interesting to see how a team's fan (Knicks) would use our outgoing players (OG/Precious)

Defensively you can put OG on anyone, then build your offensive around that fact.
-He'll guard the bigs in the post,
--He'll guard Wemby types
-Slashers on the wings
--He'll guard Paul George types
-Ball handlers 30 feet from the basket
--He'll guard the James Harden, Luka Types
-full court press
He'll guard the Haliburton types

Play with 3 decent Defensive players, who are more offensive minded, to maximize your offense.

he's a great shooter, and cutter, and it'd be worthwhile to give some on-ball reps, just to see.

I call Scottie Barnes the Chameleon of the NBA, does everything, can complement any 4 man group on both sides of the ball.

I think OG is a chameleon on Defence. He can complement any 4 man group, that might struggle defensively.

That's why I really liked the pairing.

Either that or he’ll be starting again

He’s never really show he can be an “offensive hub” though imo. He’s had a couple hot games sprinkled here and there. But the opportunity for him is now there. Jerry West don’t fail me now

Expect a loss, gonna take a minute to get OG and the team to gel.
