Willy Hernangomez "rooting" for everything 

Post#1 » by 2010 » Wed Jan 31, 2018 1:25 pm

Willy Hernangomez on trade speculation:

Of course I pay attention to that,” said Willy Hernangomez, who went from building block to knick-knack. “It’s only a couple days more than a week for the trading deadline. Like I said a couple times, I’m rooting for everything. I’m working to be ready. I want to play. And I’m not playing as much as I want. Whatever happens, happens. I can’t control it. The only thing I can control is working hard every day, put my effort in on the court and off the court. Help my teammates in any way. I’m open for anything.”

Lol he acts like he is some coveted prospect. Nobody even wants you dude. Shut the fk up already. You are trash compared to Enes and Oquinn that’s why your chunky ass was on the bench.

He seems to fancy himself as on par with his buddies Porzingis and Doncic.

could just be rooting for playing time to open up. ie: some other center gets traded (Oquinn).

So am I.

I noticed him and Okafor giving friendly greetings after the game

I guess it was the "Low post moves no defense" mutual appreciation society.

He's asked a question and says he wants to play because he's not playing as much as he wants. He's not demanding anything and seems to have answered the question in a pretty classy way. What's the issue here?

seriously if he's asked the question every day, he's just answering it. During the game I see him clapping and cheering his teammates...whats wrong with answering a question honestly....he wants to play but as long as its not effecting him in practice or being a good teammate...who cares. He's just looking forward to a resolution...i think we all are.

Melo has made these fools think its okay to comment on everything. No more generic team first answers I guess from the best friends.

Not a single person here would say anything different if they had started their second season as a stated core piece and building block of the franchise and then were glued to the bench.

Na man, I would have used my brain and seen I have 2 vets ahead of me including one guy making 17 mil for. My agent would have spoke to Mills and Perry and I would have been assured I’m apart of the future.

I would have volunteered to go down to the G league so I can play and stay in game shape while having fun dominating lower competition.

If you work hard , everything will work out for you. But if you lazy and self entitled like Willy, you gunna have a few reality checks come your way.

He is not rooting to be traded. He just wants to play. That's all.
Make the Knicks great again!
