I was watching the Shannon Sharpe interview, apparently dude is the best shooting Big of the Modern era...Better than KP....better even than Dirk...After that sunk in I was fully on Board. The team will feast with that much extra space....especially Brunson.

Re: KAT to Knicks Part 3
The bench lacks any type of scoring - unless you want to rely on Cam Payne's streaky clown self.
The bench really inspires little confidence. We need to see a legit backup PF/C brought in.
We need someone off the bench - preferably a guard - who can score the ball.

Immature, tongue-tied and flat out hard to watch. This "kid" has matured into a man and I am glad we are getting this version of himself. A lot of things need to come together but we haven't had this much talent and poise at the C position since big Pat was here.
This is what I noticed as well...And he's with plenty more to accomplish...
Did you see the Club shay shay interview?
Theres a part where Shannon asks him- why he listened to Ant or allowed Ant to tell him things...his response about the importance of letting Ant be Ant and how important that was for his growth was amazing to hear and for a 28 year old to understand that is not something to be taken for granted...
He's ready for NY now...

I'm sorry bruh, I know all those people are responsible for taking a franchise that has been floundering for the better part of two decades then turning it into a team that has been to the playoffs 3 times in 4 years and one game from the ECF while maintaining a level of fiscal responsibility that hasn't been seen this century but these are internet experts here that cannot be repudiated in any way, shape or form.
So once and for all I respectfully extend to you a polite STFU and GTFO...thank you for your contributions, but your services are no longer required.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

What he went through a few years back is unfathomable. On a personal level he's another guy who's really easy to root for.
yeah...I feel terrible calling him soft...he's still playing ball after all of that-
and I did a ton of reseach- he was very close with his mother and his mother taught
him a ton of lessons Cap!

"just looking at analytics" <i would have inserted smilies for shock and rolleyes - but the whole board doesn't work a **** for me right now - is this universal? - or is it because of people inserting tweets into threads - blocked and forbidden in my current location?>
