Thibs naturally is going to lean vet early...
Yeah non defensive rookies don't get burn with Thibs. That said CamPayne isn't a bad player in the regular season at least. I don't want him playing in the playoffs but if he does **** it I guess. We a twisted ankle from imploding but maybe Thibs gets the maximum defensive impact out of OG and Mikal and we got 2 DPOY candidates in the starting 5.

You also have Duece and Hart that will play key defensive doing the dirty work roles. Precious as well.
We will need to find someone from the Payne/Kolek/Shamet minutes to contribute this year.

Re: KAT To The Knicks Part 2
If they get Fitch Randle back this is a great move for Minny. I remember Jules not liking point Randle and Thibs being the one that loved it and wanted him in that role.
If Julius gets back to quick actions in Minnesota and plays off Ant's creation I can see the offense taking a step forward with Donte's shooting.

Same lame **** not contributing to conversation. This thread has turned into a few people coping by posting blatant lies (KAT as a top 4 defender inside of 6 feet was the most insane **** I ever seen), people pretending there's no risk because KAT isn't injury prone (a MF said they don't count meniscus tears

I mean, KAT is leaning down towards him, but yeah, Judge is an objectively massive human, with no qualifiers. At 6'7", 280+ he's different proportions than just about any other athlete class on the planet.
Gronk was 6'6", 265 and known as one of the most physically imposing athletes on a professional FOOTBALL field, and Judge is bigger than him.
He's also the same height as known physical specimen, and Judge doppelganger, Aaron Gordon, but Judge outweighs him by nearly FIFTY (50!) lbs.
He's truly a giant.

I'm praying CamPayne rolls the clock back and Precious stops being the new Kyle O'Quinn and making dumb ass plays like that's his job.

That big, with a giant ass strike zone, and still makes it on base almost half the time. Insane.

You’re right, I was getting too optimistic. Might be tougher for Kolek to show out like IQ cause IQ was a good defender since day one. I think they are probably gonna develop Kolek in the g league for a bit like they did with deuce. Im not sure how I feel about cam Payne. I know I liked him when he was on those suns squads as a backup

When the homers take over the threads that’s when it gets toxic. They be attacking you if you not delusional about a Knick. It was the same thing with RJ.

Re: KAT To The Knicks Part 2
Towns is a far more gifted offensive player than a lot of you realize. Man was a walking top ten offense before the Gobert trade. I would say a good chunk, about 30 percent, of his offense was taken away once the Timberwolves got Rudy because Towns had to play PF against quicker guys and the spacing was much different on the court. Even with his neutered offensive game he still managed to put up roughly 20 PPG a night.
Him going back to center will open his game back up. He is an easy scorer and barely ever gets shut down one on one. He alsodrives a lot more than people think, he routinely cooked other Centers from the perimeter with his drives in the season or two before Gobert. His big problem was he gets tunel vision on those drives so when teams started to load up, he created a lot of turnovers. Befor teams got smart with the loading up and foul baiting though, he was roasting normal-slow center out there. It's why in the Memphis series they had to basically take Steven Adams out of the games, Adams is a damn good player but the dude was getting molested by Towns' drive game.
Give him a chance, you will see his crazy talent and reliability. Post-season he has had some problems for sure, I wont dispute that, but for the regular season, the dude is as consistent as it gets and is pure money when it comes to getting buckets. just put down the 20+ points every night on good efficiency, easy, no doubt about it.

And plays a passable centerfield - it's not like he's a 1B or DH.

Here he is towering over two Jalens, one we all know really well, the other is the jacked up stud QB from Alabama. He's so good at baseball you sometimes forget just how unique he is physically:

Yeah it's the homers who are toxic not you who literally does nothing but bring toxicity and trolling and negativity to the board.

Bros upset he's getting a taste of his own medicine after trolling when RJ got traded and he can't take it so he's crashing out

Yeah, it's because KAT's leaning over, here he is with Wiggins and LaVine. They were 6'5.5" in shoes for LaVine and 6'8" in shoes for Wiggins

KAT is slightly taller than AD, and maybe the same height as KD, he's shorter than Embiid and Mitch.
