As one of the bigger Thibs haters/doubters on this board, I have no quarrel with any of this. The guy is a good coach in many aspects and unquestionably gets results.
I think what we might miss sometimes with thibs is the things that aren't quantifiable. Like the players, a jHart for example, are willing to run through a brick wall for him. He is the kinda guy that every other player on the outside on hates, and wouldn't want to play for, but his guys love him.
But got dayum those mins are concerning as hell.
The 8 man rotation is really nuts. I’m with all you in that but it’s pretty obvious to me that Thibs has really adapted in the past 2 years. He’s absolutely willing to try stuff as long as it works or thinks it will. So as long as the guys buy in I’m totally on board too.

They've picked up his options, he's a RFA after next season.

You don't trade first round picks for a player you cannot retain, we simply cannot afford him if we traded for him. Mikal has an extension coming up soon, and Jalen isn't going to be taking another discount.
He's not a realistic trade target, he was before we had KAT, he's not realistic now. What do you think happens when he's a RFA and we're a apron team? A team will make an offer we can't match and that's that, we lost a player that we traded our last picks for.
It may impact the full package of what we would give up overall.But two years for a player that could be key as a final piece to a championship run is worth it
We're better off just keeping Mitch if the other option is to trade multiple picks for a backup. At the end of the day, he would be KAT's backup.
Kessler nor Poeltl make any sense for this team, trading for a starting center to be a backup when there's an all-star MVP caliber center already on the team, with 3 backups makes no sense.

They don't air Knicks games on Rikers Island?
Does anybody know what charges sham faces? Your RealGM family is behind you. Hopefully he’s trading for some smokes.

He started the season looking for his shot too much, and not looking for Towns enough. Then he seemed at times somewhat hesitant and not as sharp a scorer as last year, though it was never nearly as bad as some made it out to be. But it seems he's found the right balance with the new personnel around him in the last couple weeks.
1 additional assist per game and 3.6 (!) fewer FGAs a game compared to last season is a significant change and sacrifice for a player of his caliber.
It's a subtle but really strong display of leadership.
What a player he's become.
