How many guys (NBA stars) are even semi-relatable to normal human beings - Steph & Jalen & ??? :lol:


The little I've seen of Jokic speaking gave me the impression he's fairly down to earth and not that conceited even if he knows he's good and has a competitive streak

Yeah but he’s 7‘0 …

Sabonis will get whatever he wants and have a monster game but he shouldn’t be able to contain KAT either right?

Thibs should put OG on Sabonis and KAT on someone else, not sure who. OG rises to challenges like that. But not sure Thibs is flexible enough to try it

This was their starting lineup last game. Would be a tough matchup for KAT either way

I was wondering how the Kings's bench stood vs. ours. Some surprises. First, ex Knick Doug McDermott is a 14 year vet! Not bad for a limited player. But surprised how Kevin Huerter has regressed there. From a 15 pt scorer who shot around 38% from 3s to just 8.2 ppg and 29% from 3s. Injuries or is he maybe an obtainable sniper for our bench who would relish a change of scenery?

TJ Warren for sure

Okeke and the young center might follow if a trade happens

I could see it. As already mentioned, many of those teams will pull their starters, meanwhile we won't....we'll also likely have a peak conditioned Mitch and some much needed bench pieces like TJ Warren & Chuma Okeke.


8 games in 12 days with 3 B2Bs is insane no matter who you are playing. We don't know how tight the race will be or who plays what but, it's still insane. With travel time in there too.

Bench pieces. Cute. :lol:


Cuteness will kill you....TJ Warren and Okeke are lighting it up right now....along with Mitch I think they'll give us a huge boost.


How do we afford both TJ and Okeke? What makes you think Thibs will play them? It's nice on paper but, we don't even play the guys that are here now. Warren and Okeke will crack the rotation while we also add Mitch? That's way too many players for Thibs rotation.

Achiuwa and Payne might get shipped... depends also if Thibs plays Deuce at backup point again?

I don't see it being realistic but, whatever. We have 12 days. Let's see what happens. I think all of these new apron rules are going to be a problem. Leon and his boys are probably all over it though.

Thibs whole life he's been working towards his ultimate dream of the 3 man rotation.

The Knicks would need to create a roster spot in order to sign both.

I'd like it to go on record that I hate keegan Murray. Everything about him sucks - his stupid name, keegan, fcking dork. Sure can't help what you were named but if he had any sort of swag his friends would have called him kee but nope he sucks so keegan it is. And what else sucks about him is he is all hype. what are we in year 12 of him about to break out. Fck him and his stupid name.
