my favorite cookies of all time are cameo cookies. I use to get them at the local corner store when I was a kid. They don't sell them anywhere now.

I think they only sell them in Puerto Rico now and you have to get them on Amazon but they are super expensive. Like $8 a pack but they are FIRE!

i just looked up cameo cookies and they look dry as schit. sorry. :lol:

Neither Julius nor RJ are clutch. They're actually anti-clutch at this point. Burks should be getting the ball in these late game situations.

If I'm Thibs, and I want to win (which I believe that's all he cares about), why not draw up these plays for the one player that has proven he can hit big shots in big moments (Burks)? It must have something to do with Randle in the huddle saying "I'm taking and hitting this shot, coach", and Thibs backing down and allowing it, so he doesn't piss off our all-star.

I think I saw a stat that Randle is 1-7 on big shots at end of games. I'm not sure if that's accurate, but its seems about right. I remember him hitting that big 3 against Philly, but can't think of any others. I could be wrong, though.

Durant's game was early on, but besides tonight, we took them to the last shot with Irving AND Harden as well.

We're a good draft and 1 Superstar away from giving the Nets fits for many years.


Did you turn the game off after 4 minutes? Harden didn't play. We aren't getting a good pick because we banked fake covid wins. Welcome to the 2016-19 Orlando Magic.



What I meant was the 1st game, just to correct my post.

Winning trumps losing everyday then dropping 2 positions in the lottery.

Its actually the exact opposite Nabisco basically rebranded Cameo cookies as Golden Oreos but they are not the same and don't come close to them. Cameo's are OG cookies.

randle can take the last shot, but it's either gotta be a strong move to the basket or his new signature baseline jumper. in general i agree, though. randle and rj both hoist up too many low % jumpers late in close games considering both of their strengths are primarily based on being able to muscle into position. it's boneheaded, and that's the most frustrating way to lose

Nope, that's a deflection. Payton isn't the one with the ball in his hands for half our possessions.

It’s not a deflection. We’ve seen Payton freeze out both Randle and RJ multiple times for horrible shots. Everybody sees that. But even still, RJ still gets plenty of opportunities with the ball. I think he’s fine with his role. Wouldn’t put him in a bigger role to struggle.

Anyways I’m bowing out of this cause we been thru this debate all year. All I know is that once Randle gets that extension, I’ve won the war :lol:


We agree on one thing.. Randle is getting that bag. He's not giving any discounts either. I don't agree with should give it to him, but from Randle's perspective, he'll have a serious leg to stand on. He is the 'man' on this team, there is no question about that. He knows it, and his agent knows it.

Randle will ask for and get that max bag. It's the wrong move, but the Knicks will give it to him.

All this talk about this competitive year is going to really help the Knicks out as we move forward is a bunch of crap.

Look where getting into the playoffs got the Magic. In the same spot they were before they started. They've dumped everything, and are starting to build all over again.

With this draft being so great, the Knicks made a big mistake adding all the one year vets to scrape out wins and land in the 8-10 seed. It won't help our future at all. It's only going to screw up this franchise even more, because we don't have the ability to land another young stud in the draft.

A game like this should open a lot of more fans eyes. We can't even beat the Nets with only Kyrie on the floor. We are simply not good, and we don't have enough talent to compete. We NEEDED to get back in the top of this draft to get more talented. But no, we decided as a franchise that signing one year rentals and barely scraping the playoffs was the right direction to go. It wasn't, now we're f*cked. Again.

classic overachieving leading to delusions of being a real team when we're still trash


The Nets did just fine overachieving and showing that they have a stable intelligent front office. And how well has the Knicks done with their past lottery picks?

Here's a list of all of the Knicks lottery picks since it was introduced in 1985.

2020 - Obi Toppin
2019 - RJ Barrett
2018 - Kevin Knox
2017 - Frank Ntilikina
2015 - Kristaps Porzingis
2009 - Jordan Hill
2008 - Danilo Gallinari
2005 - Channing Frye
2003 - Michael Sweetney
2002 - Nene (traded), they were set to pick Curtis Borchardt if they had kept the pick (yeah "WHO?")
1991 - Greg Anthony
1986 - Kenny Walker
1985 - Patrick Ewing

Ewing became an All-Time great and that's about it. None of the other guys they've drafted in the lottery since it's inception in 1985 has turned out to be better than Julius Randle. Knicks front office? Maybe for a few. But the bottom line is that lottery picks are more miss than hit by far.


We did well with top 5 picks though.
Ewing, Porzingf, RJ.. can't recall where Kenny Walker was picked.
We sucked because we kept missing out on top picks.


That's because the top 5 is always where the talent is stacked. Year after year. You can get lucky and land a stud later, but the top talent is almost always going to be in the top 5. And we had the chance to get there, and we screwed it up royally.

He can, but when everybody expects him to do that , is it always the best option? I think Burks should have been that guy last night?
