I was at a couple of his best performances, namely the 2017 career high 40pt game in the win against the pacers where frank also balled out. That's still his career high and will never be surpassed. And the game in charlotte where he hit the buzzer beater that got waived off in like his 10th career game. Also the game last season when he got ran out of the garden which remains the most fun knicks game I've attended


I watched Harden and the rockets destroy the Knicks :-?

The highlight was when Dot dropped his defender on a pull up jumper on a break. Got to sit with two long time season ticket holders, and it was cool as ****. I’ll be back as soon as the world is back to normal.

just imagine for a second- the amount of clowning that would have been league wide...

That trade is looking genius right now...

I might have been at that one too, but the rockets destroyed the knicks so many times it's hard to keep track. The one I went to, Sam Dekker on the rockets tripped and fell, and it was a blowout

Shame. He was playing so well in these playoffs. Dude had genuinely taken a step up in his career. I hate how things ended up with KP but don’t wish ill on the guy.

They know the franchise is Luka and KP's a semi expensive sidekick

But yeah him getting hurt obviously evens out that trade for us quite a bit. Him being healthy we were losing that trade big time.

The league will find some way to help the mavs now that they have Luka. They’ll be fine ultimately.

im not at all surprised to see this

am I right in thinking this is a very significant injury
one that might last into next year?

and not a reoccurring one but a brand new one, right?

i can go back to prayign that the 2021 draft pick has some value now?

Man if luka wasn’t already one of the best players in the world
I would have optimism about their pick for next year

How long does a recovery require ? Likely to miss some of next season? I’m focused solely on that draft pick

The people who said his body wouldn't hold up were right. Now we just need Thibs to fix DSJ...
