I remember in 2013 when I used to lurk before joining here there was a guy who claimed he knew a time traveler and said we would win the chip that year. I used to visit this site just to get updates from him :lol:


didn't he have doctor who underwear or something like that?

also, y'all know how petty jalen can be, right? he gonna use that as motivation


Yup I see a 40 point game coming for Cap. Too much talking for my liking, guys who never done nothing talking. Why is Beasley and Thompson talking? My guy gonna be on the bench with 2 fouls midway through the 1st. OG locks up Cade again, Knicks win by 15.


40 points for Brunson!? I've been told that's selfish basketball.

Brunson should never score over 20 again

I like the hard hedge we used to lockup Cade and the quick traps along the sidelines and corners.


Hmm guess it depends on your definition of a true PG. I see Cade as their PG, but if you're talking about one of those guys who just pounds the rock and passes the ball and gets a bunch of assists, they could always start Shroeder. If it's ball protection, though, I agree with you. Cade was getting 4.4 turnovers a game during the season, which is a lot.

He's currently 3rd in the postseason with 6 a game. Kawhi is first with 9.0.

Cade is as much of a PG as Booker is. The team will likely pivot from this as they get better.

all the talk will be the undoing of that team, Cade was downplaying OG's defense on him as well lol. If anything we will see even more of OG on Cade. seems like they are ok with Tobias and the rest of their guys to take the shot which I'm fine with.

I can’t remember but all I remember was I think he met some time traveler at a bar and he was predicting everything that happened in the season. I fell for it lol


Yeah, I was referencing that time traveler cat. He posted a few predictions and claimed to be from the future :lol:

JVG's reference is to a separate poster who had been in contact with someone directly in the Knicks' locker room. To prove it to the board, he posted a bunch of Knicks swag that he'd been gifted. I'm pretty sure people started joking that he'd gotten Carmelo Anthony's used gear which wound up getting exaggerated to underwear :lol:

The time traveler was full of crap. The other guy was actually confirmed by one of the mods at the time. Realgm Knicks' forum history is crazy. :crazy:
PG- Haliburton | Schroder | Sasser
SG- Grimes | Dick | Bogdanovic

If I were Detroit I would run Cade off a double screen with KAT and Brunson's checks. Lay wood on OG and force the Knicks to switch Brunson onto Cade in the post area. Keep Beasley or your best shooter on Brunson's side so the double can't come.

at some point that double screen could be countered too, you either hedge it or jam it. If the 5 is
Brunson/Bridges/OG/KAT/Mitch that double screen won't work for to long.
