Watching back parts of the game on replay now and I'm noticing he's smooth off the ball and understands where to get to on the floor.


Here is a plot twist for you.

Landry Shamet moves to the starting lineup. Josh Hart goes to the bench.

Knicks become unguardable with 5 guys who could all shoot in the high 30's or above 40 percent from three.

Shamet will get those wide open looks that Hart gets, won't hesitate to shoot them, and will knock them down.

Hart off the bench ensures that he, Anunoby, or Bridges are on the floor at all times.


Hopefully he stays healthy enough to make it a possibility. But, it might be best to manage his minutes carefully and keep his role 15-18 mpg.

Anyway, as we know, so many things happen in the course of the season. The culture the team is building should ensure that people stay ready for their opportunity

It'll take Thibs about 40 games to make him the backup, but that's the way Thibs is. Rookies have to earrrrrnnnnn it.

I'll bet you it happens in 20 games. If I win, I get to insult you. If you win, you get to insult me.

By midseason, will we see Precious in the starting lineup (replacing Hart) and Kolek as our backup pg?

By mid season we should see Mitch starting and both of those guys on the bench. Kolek is going to have to outplay Payne/Shamet for any playing time. Unless of course there's another trade involving those guys.

One can only hope that Mitch is back, healthy, and playing well.

This is not a good spot to be in at all. He could help us a lot. Imagine needing stops and deploying Deuce/Mikal/Hart/OG/Mitch!! I would love to see that lineup.

I've been following the Wolves since inception. I was very happy to hear about the Towns trade. He has a ten cent head, as Knicks fans will soon find out. Really dumb fouls. Very soft defender and gets lost a lot. Tries to make highlight reel passes that don't work. I may be in the minority from a Wolves fan perspective but I always thought he was overrated. Guess we'll see how the season goes.
