Knicks messed up big time with Obi but IQ seems like a great gem for us. Guess it evens out

It’s like when lil bitches make subliminal records, if it ain’t directed directly at me, I don’t respect it

I don’t like to write off prospects early but the guy looks rawer than Kevin Knox and Frank Ntilikina. He just turned 23 too. It’s not a good look at all... :-?

Charlotte is a winner according to Draymond Green lol.

I was right about 3 point shooting. I expect to be right about Tacko Fall. Some coach will figure out how to use Tacko Fall. This movement towards undersized centers will sweep ng back. Back to the basket scorers will return to the NBA.
