i often wonder if the knicks wouldn't have been better off trading for claxton, cam johnson and dorian finney-smith instead from the nets. i think that would have cost less than five picks.



you often wonder how to make trades that wouldn't work under the CBA? :lol:

65 MM instead of Mikals 23 MM?

His buzzer beater was a pretty big moment

Not really

Claxton is a crash out that got paid.

DFS would have been a good pick up but he's a spot starter back up PF to me

Cam Johnson is not a relevant player to me

relax


He did this same sh*t versus Philadelphia from when he was on the Nets.

I'm not saying this sh*t for my health. He is not built for high intensity games.

OG should be the one with 7 FGAs and not him.


wait you don't want him too shoot?

his shots haven't been bad shots. You take what the defense is giving you.

That last tweet on the side shown during this halftime show said it best. Celtics are coasting while Knicks playing like it’s game 7 of the finals and can’t even pull away lol

He’s averaging like 13 points a game against Boston, Cavs and OKC. He disappears the most out of everyone.

Listen I'm being harsh regarding Bridges because I've seen him do way better. He's mailing it in

Why does OG only have 4 points when none of these guys can physically defend him?


Boston has a lot of good defenders. I'm not sure you can just force feed the ball to OG

I would be more impressed if all of his best moments weren't against bad teams.

I agree.


But he has got to convert those looks. The game isn't over yet but he has to start hitting
