Why can’t LeHerb retire gracefully?

This diva is doing the same **** at 40 years old that he did at 20.

I don’t remember Kobe and Jordan whining on the way out.

Simmons on a roster with Hart, Mitch, Clarkson and Mikal is a bad idea.

Ragebait sells, and for whatever reason, there's an extremely vocal amount of Knicks fans who still haven't gotten over LeBron rejecting them in 2010, and will rush to click on anything speculating LeBron to the Knicks now so they can reject him in their minds

Cause they're just weird like that.

Again you were not around 2010 so this conversation is not for you. Go back to watching amime or look up stats.

There is a chance 3 of those guys are no longer here.

I'm old and have been following this team before there was a realgm.

Ben Simmons would be a tremendous counter-balance to Brunson in the backcourt. Because all Brunson's weaknesses are Simmons strengths and he can ball handle and distribute better than anyone on our team right now outside of maybe JB

Great. How do you know DOT isn't the same?

Just seemed unnecessary.

And I'm not even a Knicks fan.

Cause we've had this discussion before and he says he didn't started following the team until 2015 (if I remember correctly). It's unnecessary for him to even chime into this topic and say diehard fans are "weird" cause we are still annoyed at what LeBum did. Kids like Dot are not as passionate as some of us about this team.

We still need a starting center.

Does the combo of Mitch/Deuce or Mitch/Hart have no value?

What's up with Kessler? What does Utah want for him?

Based on what Brown likes to run, It will probably KAT at the 5 with OG or Yabusele at the 4. Floor spacing is key because a lot of his motions run off an initial cut to the paint that sets everything in motion. The 4 and 5 need to be good passers who can read and react.

Ok. Seems like a good answer. Apologies for interrupting your fight. Go for it!

I don't think that he can handle playing here mentally.

Those 5 mpg are going to break him?

More to the point, there would be no expectations. He did fine with the Clippers last season.

LeBron to the Knicks still happening. Everyone doubted OG, KAT, Mikal situations.

Hold on tight!
