I’m not worried about Deuce or Josh’s roles. They’ll be bench players by the end of the season if we’re healthy.
For all the Kolek talk, it’s Pacome’s role we need to be worried about, esp if OG is going to be playing as a 4… previous will be important too.

I don't even know why we even drafted Dadiet. Didn't we want him to stay in Europe?

I predicted that people will want Thibs fired because he gives minutes to Cam instead of Vanilla Brunson and that is why.
Starters still some gelling tp happen, give them some time but of course, Knicks fans are about as patient as a sugar fueled toddler so...yea

No need to be all judgy - predicting kolek to have a similar career to a 2x mvp is a fairly reasonable take after 1 preseason game.

Kolek's calling card is his passing game. He led the NCAA in assists. So I guess you mean if he develops more, but his passing skills are already more advanced than most NBA guards. He should get better with pro experience, but he's already well above average as a distributor.
And we know he can shoot too. On offense, he is already legit.
Anyway, he appears to have a shot at being a Nash or Stockton quality distributor.
Nash was not much of a defender, but he was considered a great PG.

Too much with the Nash comp. I’ll be happy if Kolek is even Tyus Jones level of PG.

A comp is more about the way the play, not the level they have reached.
Anyway, Nash didn't blow the league away when he first entered it either.
It is simply that Kolek has already a well-developed passing game that could end up being elite. Again, he led the nation in assists. This is not a stretch to say he may already be an advanced distributor.

Some of the posters here say he didn’t look so good and his first game was not a good sign
