I wont hold any grudge but I will say what I think. Ihart was great but I dont think he had a deep love for the knicks experience
and thats why he couldnt do this:
Read on Twitter

Mitchell Robinson is not the reason we won that series.

He played great defense for 1 game and then got hurt.

Offensively Mitchell Robinson makes us severely worse in various ways - less ball movement, more paint clogging, not a threat to score in any fashion other than lobs.

People can’t grasp that this is on 2k. You can’t just put a shot blocking center with no offense next to a bully ball player at PF to replace a great passing big and expect the same results and outcome. We will be easier to guard on offense, not harder.

If we didn't have Mitch - we lose that series. There is a reason Embiid was laying on the floor and pulled Mitch's leg out of the air.

Bruh we didn’t have Mitch most of the series and we won.

There were multiple reasons why we won the series - he contributed to those reasons. Saying he’s the sole reason we won is ludicrous.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Mitch played 73 minutes in 4 out of 6 games in that series. This is a game of INCHES. We have OG for one more game vs Indy we win that series...

not mad at all... chronic Achilles issues, plays like **** when not 100% and cant defend big guys who can score!!

As for his passing, there must be other options on the market, plus we can play Randle at 5 which could make us even better

We won that series because we had two really good defensive centers with 12 fouls between them and a Ok third center in Sims.

Our centers are good because they Tag Team other centers. A ref cant put both of them in foul trouble throughout a whole series without it being seen as them being crazily bias in favor of the star center. However, if either Mitch or IHart was the only center Embiid had to get into foul trouble to make his match up be Sims the rest of the night. Trust me he is going to do them like the Celtics did Mavs when they hunted Luka.

The knicks don't need the second coming of IHart at back up center, but they do need someone who is going to make a center like Embiid earn them 6 fouls.

If we could, would you have matched what Ihart got from OKC? I'm not sure if I would have given him 30 million like that.

What on earth? Mitch was amazing on Embiid.

His struggles are vs. the spacers.

Gotta see if they can find a decent replacement. They legit might figure something out.

Does Mitch play Embiid that tight if he doesn't know IHart can come in if he is in foul trouble?

Randle, Robinson and a filler plus the rest of the picks still more than enough for another big time trade for either Davis or Mitchell plus Allen

Trying not to panic but what is even left? I’m thinking they make a trade out of left field

These UFA centers are in our budget, have to think we have a trade in the works.
