I don't think his shot is any better even with a good finger though.

No.

Trade him.

We’re trying to win now. Not put our hopes and prayers on a dude who gets injured every other game.

Move on. Find someone else who can stay healthy. Somebody’s out there. Find them.


I agree. If he reinjured that surgically repaired ankle then he's not coming back from that. Enough is enough.

Big Knick energy is reporting KAT is not a happy team mate right now. It’s only going to get worse. He’s the odd man out.

It’s really early and losses like this and Miami happen all the time

If anything both games really emphasizes the need for Mitch to clog the paint to make it easier for everyone else to crowd their guy on the perimeter….on the other hand if this doesn’t get better with Mitch coming back I would not be surprised if we start hearing trade rumors again around January.

KAT was never cut out for the big apple. He's got marshmallow soft feelings. Ya know who would do really well in the bright lights? Donovan Mitchell but we didn't wanna give up Quentin Grimes. You know who else would? Giannis but we didn't wanna give up who this time? FO did some things right but they did a lot of things wrong.

Yep. We fell short on getting the big guns and settled for heavily flawed players.

I honestly don't think it's as much to do with the injury for KAT more the trade rumors right before the season. I mean he has to know he would have been the player going out in any trade. Need him to snap out of it.

I still feel KAT is a stop gap and he won’t be here past this season. Couldn’t lose Randle for nothing.

It’s probably both. He’s definitely playing injured. Zero lift which affects everything in bball.

Brown postgame pretty much saying he's trying to change KAT's perspective--just make the right plays, keep the ball moving, sacrifice for your teammates. I just don't know if he's that guy.

Would’ve been better to just pay Randle at that point. He’s averaging 25/7/5 on very good efficiency. KAT’s production is making Randle look like Jokic this year.

Lotta talk about guys who weren't with the team tonight and I ain't talkin' about Yabu and Deuce.

Towns ain't right right now. He looked like Gumby out there waiving and buckling around. If he's hurt he needs to rest and we can take a look at Mo. It's pretty wild how dinged up we are right now. But it's May where we gotta be right. We can come in as the 8 seed at take the east like the Heat did a few years ago if need be.

Warriors fan here. I come in peace. I've been curious about how Brown's offense would fare for the Knicks. As an outsider, I've thought that the Knicks could use more layers to their offense and more spontaneity. I thought Towns could really look good in this offense as a playmaker, given what Brown got out of Sabonis and a heavy diet of DHO's in Sacramento.

During training camp, I saw KAT's quotes about not really knowing what the Knicks' offense was supposed to be. This was, I thought, a bad omen.

I caught some of Sunday night's game against the Heat and most of the third and fourth quarters of tonight's game. I've been shocked by how bad KAT looks. I really thought his passing skills would play well in Brown's system, but yikes. To my eye, it looks like KAT is dragging the offense to a slow crawl in the halfcourt when gets the ball. It looks like he's rushing shots when he feels like he hasn't shot the ball in a few possessions. The offense has looked smoothest, to me, with KAT off of the floor, or KAT screening and spacing the floor but not... actually touching the ball.

I've seen KAT meltdowns dating back to his Minnesota days, most notably, the 2022 play-in game where he had one of the most disastrous stretches of turnovers, baffling fouls, and stubborn post-up attempts that I've ever seen. I guess I thought KAT would grow out of these spastic, emotionally unregulated stretches of basketball, but at this point, he's nearly 30, and he's still committing Russell Westbrook-level meltdowns.

I'm curious if people think I'm being unfair or if KAT-skepticism is a commonly-held feeling around these parts. I'd like the Knicks to go far in the east. KAT seems to me like an active deterrent to that goal.

Hard to know how those negotiations went. Seems like randle wanted a max but then settled for a reasonable deal in Minny. I think the Knicks would have done things differently if they knew he would sign for that number.

Good. Leave.

I’ll praise Mike Brown if he gets KAT traded.
