PG: Knick vs Wizards: 12/30/24; 8 in a row!

Edwards is a bit overrated too.

He was supposed to take that leap to enter that superstar tier with Luka/SGA/Tatum etc but he's just a worse version of donovan mitchell

Melo speaking facts tonight

[Capn'O]

Here's the conversation. Brunson isn't Stockton with entry passes. In fact, it's a weakness.

Conversation done.

Thank God we have him.

[DaGawd]

I know he's a statue, but for me Valanciunas made a strong case for himself if its true he can be had at a discount. Dude just knows how to play and would be huge for our bench.

fk it.. fk defense.. score 140 points

All i took was towns former agent to become a president of basketball operations to truly unlock his real potential. He’s got a 10 net rating on the year which is pretty insane and 6th in Pie. Guys having a monster season and the best one of his career. Only one that comes close is that season with jimmy butler.

[HerSports85]

Honestly, I had no idea KAT was this good. I was just happy to get out of the Randle contract. But my goodness KAT is looking like a real superstar/ MVP candidate. Dare I say Minny/Edwards/Gobert was holding him back

[3toheadmelo]

I apologize guys!!!

KAT is HIM and we won the trade!

The audacity of you when you wrote a thesis on Cam Reddish being as talented as rookie Kobe

Offensively, he can shoot: catch and shoot, shoot off dribble (step back or step side), shoot turnaround fadeaways off the post. He's pretty much ambidextrous can go left as well as he can go right, can finish with either hand in the paint. He has nasty hesi and head fake and euro step moves. He knocks down free throws. He can pass at a high level, to backdoor cutters or kick out off penetration or alley oops off dribble. Since becoming an NBA fan in 1996, I can say Cam has one of the most diverse arrays of offensive moves I've seen from a player. Mark Jackson once commentated on a game saying Cam can do what others in blue and orange can't, or Mark Jones saying hes "so effortless".

Defensively, he's far and away the best on ball defender in the entire NBA. Watching Wiggins in Finals, I thought Cam can easily be even a better lockdown defensive specialist than Wiggins.
t's clear all you critical of Cam evaluate players based on what they've already accomplished. Well if this was 1997, you'd have a hard time choosing a teenage Kobe (averaged only 15mpg, 7.6ppg, shot 4 airballs in a playoffs elimination game) over a then more accomplished Eddie Jones (established starter, on verge of becoming All Star). But the real astute talent evaluator Jerry West chose Kobe over Eddie, traded EJ to clear up playing time and starting spot for Kobe). I started collecting Kobe cards as he was getting DNP-CDs or 3-5 mins garbage time while my friends were collecting their MJs, Hills, Pippens, Shaqs... and they would never understand why I'd collect a trash player whose only forte seemed to be a dunking showboat.

Btw, I hadn't collected any dang NBA card since Kobe RCs in 1997 and I started doing again for Cam RCs (getting them while cheap becoz he's still "trash"... easiest investment choice ever)

Can you evaluate talent not based on their accomplishments but based on what they've shown in the garbage minutes they're receiving?? That's hard.

I'll just let Cam's play in the season do the talking from here on out

Defense is critical but I was won over by that block on Precious. Sometimes sheer size is a deterrent.... Dude is so strong that he cannot be moved and he always seems to take the shot that he wants.

In an alternate universe, Cam would have Josh's heart (no pun), motor, mentality and attitude, and he would be TMac 2.0, a top 10 player today.

Alas, Cam in this universe sucks.

what the hell are we doing - ant just went to the wcf last year and is on a roster with 2 bigs who fck up the spacing and now we're writing him off...

if this is just to give kat all the shine for carrying that team to the wcf last year pls don't let me get in the way.

We would be sending Mitch in that trade. Add their first and snag one of those kids they have and then we have the discussion. I like the youth they have. They would have their own lottery pick and it fees them up for trading future firsts. I want one of their young studs or no deal.

Edit: for a shot at Cooper, I want two of their young players.

[mpharris36]

now all we need is sham to come back and we will forgive him for his sins....needs to be a part of something special.

what happened to him?

I don't want to speak for him. I think he said some things in his personal life are going on. I know he also didn't like the KAT trade but I still can't imagine that is the reason you leave. Its not like we traded Brunson for Lamelo Ball or anything that would send me packing...

He played great in the playoffs but he didn't take that superstar leap like everyone thought he was. I was lurking on the Timberwolves reddit today and they have a thread bashing Ant for taking horrible shots and not passing the ball

Scary part, the team isn't firing on all cylinders but they are so talented they don't need to have everybody going to beat most teams. Just get it all together by the playoffs because they need nearly everyone on point by then because against the best teams playing as inconsistent as they have won't win a series.

I was assuming we move Precious and change. I'm not moving Mitch for him.
