Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RELEASE THE MITCHELL FILES!!!!!

I'm gonna be blunt. We can't sit here and worry about it, Mitch's bad health is already priced in. Hukporti is up. Diawara is up. Yabu is up.

A disc problem on an NBA player is never good. Actually, that sounds awful and the beginning of the end. Nobody with disc issues in their back is the same again - especially an athlete.

Sucks to hear because Hart is one of my favorite players. He was run into the ground by Thibs.

Yah I feel like if Hart could play, he would. He’s done 48 minute playoff games for us, played through bad injuries…

I’m going to reserve my rant about coaching and minutes for Hamsterdam, if I ever care enough to.

Between the baseball talk, fat jokes, thibs betrayal and giannis rumors you probably have enough cover to let it fly right now.

kat can start at the 5 when we play the hornets or nets. i'll allow it.

This makes me ill

it could be worse. you could still be a nets fan.

Exactly. That's why I'm ill by your statement. We can't spare any quarter. I want to rip them apart thoroughly because they shouldn't be allowed to exist

Yeah huk is starting folksssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good. Now is the time. I think Huk has the talent to be a big contributor

I’ll settle for steady if unspectacular play from Huk. Just don’t make a bunch of mistakes.

The media training is seriously lacking.

I just want hustle and disciplined defense. Everything else is a bonus.

Hart news is more concerning than Mitch. We've already withstood a long Mitch absence. They held him for the POs last season and it worked and this year we have better backup bigs. Hart's a workhorse. He's gotta really be hurting.

Between this and the KAT quote about not knowing the offense, I think we’re already in red flag territory with coach Brown.

I’ve been a Knick fan long enough to spot a catastrophic coaching season looming in the preseason (Larry Brown, Isaiah Thomas, David Fizdale etc.)

the quote was completely out of context...the reporter replied that mikal was being very complimentary saying its tough for someone to connect to players but Brown does it.

[JayTWill]

Every time I think Mitch may have gained enough value to be traded for an actual healthy body that can contribute more consistently he tanks his trade value again.

No I meant that the team needs media training to learn how to shut the **** up. I can't take anything from these quotes seriously

We haven't even played a regular season game yet and games 1 to 82 are gonna be all about preparing for the playoffs. I don't have any opinion on Brown or the offense right now. I'm more worried about developing the bench honestly.

[MrDollarBills]

Today is October 21st.

Tomorrow will be October 22nd.

Nothing happening in the next 48 hrs will matter outside of catastrophic injury

One day at a time.

it really doesn't matter. the media quotes and the fans getting upset is all just noise. it's really only about wins and losses. this stuff disappears as quickly as it appears.

Man, starting huk cause kat cant play c is highly disappointing.

5 out dreams are DEAD.

unless theyre going double big just for this game cause its the cavs.

kat can start at the 5 when we play the hornets or nets. i'll allow it.

Those games gonna have numbers like the all star game

Contract negotiations should be interesting

I was just revisiting the Don Nelson stuff. He wasn't wrong about the team needing to get younger and shoot better and that's the direction the team ultimately went, to their advantage, once he left. He probably just shouldn't have said it loud enough so the team could hear him. He wasn't wrong about Ewing being best suited as a second option. It's just kinda important to get a first option before you relegate him. And he was spot on that Mason was underutilized previously.

He was definitely wrong about Hubert Davis being better than Starks. Jesus.

[HabenKG]

Shut Mitch down. Don't want to see him until the last 8 games heading to the playoffs. Let Hulk eat till then....
