Do you know what the term homophobia means? Seems like some of you like to use big words without knowing what it means. Pipe down because you were already aired out for being in denial on how racist the Giants are when it comes to drafting a black QB.
I do know what it means you f*cking ignorant, childish jackass. My cousin's father told him to his face that he hoped he died of AIDS when he came out the closet. 10 years before he died from cancer. I know exactly what it is and why your bullsh*t isn't cute. Grow tf up Melo. You're an ass hole.
And also, the Giants are starting a Black QB this year and the back up is Black. Just because they passed on Shedeur for acting like an idiot during interviews doesn't mean what you think it does.
Go play your derailing troll games with someone else, I'm not the one lil bro. FOH

My money is on Thibs being the odd man out. IDK if it’s this summer or mid-season but I bet they make tweaks to stack the bench with defenders/shooters/fresh legs and if Tom refuses to adjust they just bring in Mike Malone.
This drunk Knick fan in the tunnel yelled “get us Giannis” to Leon and Leon looked disgusted. I don’t see them blowing up. IMO the weakest link and most vulnerable is Thibs.
Karl Anthony Towns is the worst defender in the NBA. That’s not hyperbole.
KAT will never win a title as the second best player in a team playing 35+ minutes per game. His defensive game and his offensive disappearances are simply not the makeup of a guy in the playoffs. He does not have the mentality of a champion. He never did and never will. If we want to waste $60 million on this type of player then be my guest.
If KAT is on the roster next year I’m throwing in the towel on the Knicks until he’s off the team. That’s how strongly I feel about it. I never wanted this player. I’ve been hating on KAT for a decade. I was disgusted with the trade - and I hate Julius Randle. This man made me prefer Randle. KAT is the epitome of a soft loser and he is anti-NY. We will never win a title with him starting as one of the centerpieces of the team. Mark it down. Come back to it. I’m confident in that statement. So if he’s here then I’m out.
PS: Thibs is going nowhere. Guy might be more safe than Brunson. When you hire people because they’re ‘family’ they begin to protect each other instead look out for the best interests of the team.

Even if we get rid of thibs you can’t win with this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brunson and Kat duo is an untenable pairing on Defense to win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The book is now out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, no. Here’s the thing about family, sometimes the favorite son is actually the one calling the shots. Ultimately, this is Jalen Brunson’s team. I’m just speculating, but the real decision maker will be Jalen and the choice will be between Tom, KAT, or just run it back. As long as Jalen is happy, Leon will be too. I’m just guessing here, but I see the brothers working it out under a new step-dad. But maybe Jalen is over it and wants a Durant or Giannis?
As for your Towns hate, I don’t agree with it. I don’t respect it. I think it’s part of what makes NY such an impossible place to win championships. Chill the F out and enjoy your 3rd team All-NBA center including his very real and noticeable flaws

I hate this year's team for how bad they hurt us.
But at the same time, I love what this team gave us. They gave us an Eastern Conference Final. They gave us so many heart attacks with their comebacks and dodged bullets, and fight.
They could only hurt us because what they showed us when they were locked in was so damn good.
Changes are coming. While I don't love this team like last year's, there's no doubt I will always remember them.
May this be the worst year for this nucleus, whatever it morphs into this summer.
It's been the best for the Knicks in 25 years.
There was zero consistency from game to game.
One game we look like we've figured it out on both ends, the next we revert back to everything that got our asses kicked in the loss prior.
It doesn't make sense to me and Leon and company need to evaluate -everything- from the roster to the coaching. Something is seriously wrong.
Yes it was great making the ECF. But if the team wants to take the next step and get over the hump, resting on the laurels of this conference finals appearance would be a huge mistake. Huge.

I don’t care if you don’t agree or respect it. It’s the truth. And sometimes the truth hurts.
KAT is not the 2nd best player on a title team. Never was and never will be. Can put up all the offensive regular stats in the world. Means nothing when he’s giving up more on the defensive end and committing terrible fouls and turnovers and every game. That’s not winning basketball.
Like I said, I’ve been consistent on Towns for the last decade. I haven’t flip flopped. And I’m not going to ignore his massive losing flaws because he’s wearing a Knicks jersey and we made the ECF (and got embarrassed).
I’ll keep taking a giant dump on Towns till the end of time. Just like I did when he was in Minnesota.

He wasn’t the reason we lost game 1. And if we won game 1, we’d be in the Finals.

The games they lost, you can look at 3 factors: Thibs, Hart, KAT.

Unfortunately this. I don't think we can bring back this tandem. Carlise exposed them defensively and offensively they have no chemistry.
Time to pivot and use Mikal and KAT to improve the overall roster.
