Has KAT still not said a word about being a Knick? Any press or media? A tweet?

Thibs be like f*ck dem kids...but I think Kolek is really going to have to show out like IQ did early to earn PT.

Thibs naturally is going to lean vet early...

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


Yeah Kolek might be in a situation where he just needs to stay ready and if an injury happens he might get his time to shine.

Especially since Kolek's weakest part of his game is defense thibs probably won't trust him yet.

Payne and or Shamet will get the first looks I would guess. But I believe in Kolek's skill set. If he develops right we might have our version of TJ McConnell.

Another good shot of KAT's height, Judge could also be 6'7" without shoes, which makes him an NBA 6'8" or 6'9".

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.

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

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

You literally trolled the board for 5 years straight and crashed out everyday when we traded your favorites RJ and Obi. Even seeked acceptance from the Indiana board cause everyone got tired of your trolling here. Gotta take a look in the mirror bruh. You still butthurt you can’t even admit you were wrong about them. It’s sad, but hilarious nonetheless.

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.


I get the sense he doesn't _hold_ the ball too long. Is that accurate?

Prior to last season I havent been around since Mitch was drafted. I did see one Randle play off game. Didn't participate
in any of the RJ wars and whatever other wars/debate that existed. I think that based on that its fair to say that I'm not bias
to either side.

I will tell you this though Sham I hate seeing this divide at what's clearly one of our best periods in Knick history.

How do we get both sides to forgive eachother and move forward so we all can enjoy this Brunson run?

What I don't get is why a poster who literally only exists here to antagonize, troll, and sh*t stir and adds no actual positive value to the board is still allowed to keep doing the same things over and over. I feel like back in the day mods would not allow this sort of thing to continue over and over without doing anything at all about it.

If you have a problem with a poster, notify the mods and move on. Or add to the foe list, I don't care

Continuing to engage with them does not help. You also can't complain when you keep making posts about how it's a good day because Randle's off the team. That's like, textbook trolling.
