In!
Didn't see this roster coming after last season and haven't looked forward to a season this much in a long time. I know some people set a high bar but I still think this season is a test run type deal and hope it keeps PG around. Can't wait

Should be a W with the big three developing chemistry and learning each other's tendencies. OKC wins 100-85

I think enes is gonna go off. Especially if he ever gets matched up against Jerami. When is Patterson back?

Let him. We should give them a steady dosis of DMD - Kanter PnR. I'm looking forward to watching that. 8-)

A bit worried about Patterson. The thunder is not saying anything about him (or I miss something).

It's pretty rare for them to comment on injuries.

Kanter will be one of only 5 bigs that average 20/10 this year. The Knicks will actually be smart enough to start him and play him around 35 minutes like he should have been for OKC.

And will struggle to win 30 games. Not a coincidence.

Also, Knicks and smart don't fit together.

Sleek would rather lose 130-135 than win 90-85.

No, I would just rather not watch OKC go 2-11 against the Warriors and Rockets this year like they did last season. Not playing Kanter against those two teams was a huge part of the reason they got destroyed. The idea that you're going to compete with the two best offensive teams in the NBA while not playing your 2nd best offensive player was beyond ludicrous and of course it blew up in their face. Of course your boy Roberson had 13 points in 4 games against the Warriors so he was really balling out there though (0-10 on 3 pointers). LMAO. I simply want the coach and this franchise to do what 99.9% of teams throughout the history of basketball has done...to start the best available overall player at each position. Kanter was CLEARLY the best player to start at power forward (ridiculously better than Sabonis or Taj Gibson) and I guarantee that everybody will see what he's capable of with the Knicks since they're going to be playing him those minutes.

Like when he couldn't play becuase you just run pnr against him and bad kneed Derrick Rose makes him look foolish.

You do you man.

What exactly are your predictions for the Knicks? I mean wins and losses, not points per game.

Kanter was unplayable against the rockets. Love Kanter but he simply can't defend

Kanter is already getting negative knicknames from our fan base and he hasn't even played a game yet.
