This is also good. Way better than 2021 so far.

I'm not mad at this at all, he's always been one of those guys when he gets minutes, he produces.

I like this in a vacuum- but I was excited to see Sims get back up minutes this year and if they're going to commit long term to Mitch why are we investing this heavily in a back up...

Taking roster out of the equation Hartenstein showed a lot last year in LA and I know their fans are mad they are losing him. His passing + offensive rebounding will be very welcomed into our team.

Don't know much about him but hoping this means we pass on Mitch. No need to invest too much money on the C position unless it's for a star. Sims and this dude can hold it down. Plus we really need to start playing Obi more.

Ugh

Is this guy better than Nerlens Noel (who we just gave up draft capital to move).

Did the front office not learn the lesson from last year just handing out 2 year deals?

Just when I thought maybe they would be smart and give Brunson a front loaded deal that was better for long term cap space.

Knicks gonna Knick.

I don’t know much about him really, I couldn’t stand to watch the clippers. Will watch highlights

Could be a smart signing.

Hartenstein always had talent.

His impact stats are good, albeit in limited minutes. Good scoring efficiency, decent free throw shooter, seemingly a good defender.

Could be a nice back-up for Mitch.

OH ****, was just listening to CP from Knickfan TV saying he wanted him but didn't think we would be able to get him!

IMO, he is better than Noel. He's a young guy that we should be committing to.

I am curious what becomes of the bigs rotation. Obviously, they are not looking to play Randle or Obi there.

Knicks fans in a nutshell, has no clue whether or not Isaiah is good or not, but doesn't like the move.

And yes, he's better than Nerlens.

Young and improving.
