No, Wildtimberwolf.

I'm mocking you for your cuck energy while the Knicks are in the trenches during wartime, with their eyes on ending a 50+ year drought.

You are a Timberwolves fan. I am a Knicks fan. We are not the same.

we have a place for this kind of personal attack. you of all members know that. -JVG

Watching the NBA Draft Lottery closely. Could have possible repercussions on our ability to win a title in our championship window if the ping pong balls bounce the wrong way.

Been watching T-Wolves game for years now. I'm not going to feel bad about that.

You're fanatical in your disdain for Randle. I said last year it's something that needs calling out, because it's nonsensical. I am also not actively rooting against the Knicks. There's something wrong with this roster and this coach, and it needs to be talked about. And one of my main reasons why a KAT/Randle trade was stupid, was because Thibs was still the coach, and coach certain way, and my lack of trust in his adaptability, especially now that we're seeing how much Bryant contributed to the Thibs mindscape. Nearly every single deterrent of the trade has been in full display in these playoffs, and for the better part of the last couple of months.

So yeah, we're not the same because I'm not embroiled in my homerism to see a flawed roster.

Let's get out the East first. Seeing Philadelphia end up with a top 5 pick is sickening, but not the end of the world because it's still Philadelphia.

That 1st half was the worse thing that could ever happen to a supposed Contender. Cleveland is absolutely cooked.

I personally don't think the Bucks are interested in KAT.

But I'd be down so long as we get a follow-up trade for a stretch 5.

Did Dame and Giannis did pick and rolls a lot?

For what it’s worth, apparently rival teams think we got KAT to offer him in a trade for giannis. Maybe we have intel that the bucks want him. But who knows. I still think the Knicks will try to get him though.

I don’t believe dame and giannis ran the pick and roll that much.

Listen, if the gameplan was always Randle --> KAT --> Giannis, I'm in. Thibs can go back to 2 ISO players.

Knicks fans are allowed to have "disdain" for other teams and their players on our Knicks board without "needing to be called out". :lol: get a grip.

If you don't want to hear any bad talk about the opposing player, then you should be on the other team's forum.

We're all flawed human beings.

You're an overly optimistic kool-aid drinker.

Giannis to the Spurs still makes the most sense to me. Spurs have the most picks to trade and can also send at least one exciting young player to the Bucks.

When Randle plays terrible iron spams the thread with random tweets but since he can’t do that anymore he’s throwing a fit :lol:

So does this mean you're not joining the redemption tour for Obi Toppin ??? :(

Giannis wants to play like LeBron James, not set screens for a point guard in the pick-and-roll.

It's fine to go all in for Giannis.

Just don't be surprised when he and Jalen don't mesh because they both want to handle the ball.

There's a reason why Giannis has been out in the first round for the last 3 years and why he and Dame failed to make each other better.

Heh, once a Knick, Always a Knick ain't a thing for Randle?

You're a Knicks fan on a Basketball forum that has a Knicks subforum. It's RealGm. Not KnicksGM. And you've been going on this topic well before the KAT trade, so come off it. It's bloody obnoxious that you chest is pumped out at its fullest with a bad Randle game. Needless to say, it's been a quiet playoffs for you.

Me, though, I'm going to continue giving KAT his flowers -- when he deserves it -- and calling KAT out -- when he deserves it. And I'll do the same for Randle, because it's absolute criminal the way this fanbase treated him as if he was Charles Smith or something. And today's team with Thibs offense, needed a Randle.
