KAT and the CAA connections obviously played a role but they have made some very good decisions throughout this process. Not just assembling talent but building an ideal roster to execute their coaches system. And one that has a multi year championship window under the new CBA.

- Almost all core players are under 29.
-Almost all core players are either elite offensively or competent two way players that are elite defensively.
- Almost all core players are on multi year contracts. Bridges who has two years left by all inidications is highly likely to extend.
- Thibs is a great coach and we have assembled one of the best overall coaching staffs in the NBA.

Hoping 3 players can break into the rotation by mid-season.
Hukporti, Kolek and TJ Warren.
KAT…Hukporti…(Mitch)
OG…Achiuwa
Mikal…TJ Warren
Hart…Deuce
JB…Kolek
If Warren is over his injury issues he would be a perfect fit for the second unit, and if Mitch comes back healthy, we can limit his minutes with Hukporti giving us another great option at center.

The Knicks can't fit TJ Warren on the roster unless they drop Shamet and every indication is that they'll keep Shamet

Yea Shamet barring a drastic change of circumstances seems like a shoo in to make the roster based on all the rumors/reports.
