Such a garbage outlook. This fanbase really sucks sometimes. :nonono:


At least his post had valid points. You call his outlook "garbage" like all of it is bad, but most of the things he brought up are true.

Then again, most of Clarkson's defenders in this thread have not had good arguments, so I'm not surprised you would resort to a post like this. In the end, I suspect it's basically, "he has a Knicks jersey so we need to support him."

Edit: Also saw Melo hamsterdamming and reviving this thread :lol: :lol: :lol:

we gonna act like clarkson hasn’t contributed to winning teams before?

Calling him a piece of trash that shouldn't be in the league is a valid point? Sounds more like somebody wants his bf Brogdon on the team more than making valid points. Not 1 game played for us and the guy is a POS? GTFOH Bunch of clowns in here. :lol:

Clarkson has a lot of flaws but the guy gets buckets which is something our bench has needed badly. I mean would you rather watch kolek and deuce try to be a scorer?

Deuce is better than kolek but Deuce doesn't have a bag to be a scorer. He was pretty terrible in the playoffs

Deuce needs to focus on defense, spacing and rebounding

Clarkson was pretty solid as a PnR initiator with the Lakers, made Tarik Black look like a poor man's Amare. His pairing with Yabu should be interesting for the Knicks. NY having your version of Lou Will and Trez of the Clips

Disagree with both of you. I actually think he'd blossom as a starter. I hope it happens.

We’re not saying deuce is bad lol we’re just saying he’s not a scorer like that. I mean we were ranked dead last in bench points for a reason. Clarkson is much better equipped for that role than to rely on someone like deuce. Deuce is more of a 3 and d guard which is still very valuable.

He can hoop and plays with a chip on his shoulder but he probably is gonna have a love/hate relationship with this fanbase because his defense is just as bad as Jalen and KAT's :lol:

But you can pencil in 16 points a night off the bench and some additional ball handling.
