We’d get destroyed on defense with Sexton and Robinson in the backcourt

You do know that Reggie Bullock is a FA and isn't on our 2021-2022 roster @ 30 years olde, right?

And no he doesn't.

He's no where near the type of deadly high volume 3PT shooter that teams most fear like a Duncan Robinson.

Duncan Robinson 3 years = 530 made 3's (176 3's made per year).

Reggie Bullock 8 years = 560 made 3's (46.6 3's made per year.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about :lol: please never compare the two again as 3PT shooters.

Previous 2 years between Duncan Robinson and "Reggie Bullock".

Duncan Robinson (2019/2020) = 520 made 3's (.426%).

VS.

"Reggie Bullock (2019/2020) = 200 made 3's (.393%).

Um.

What we're you saying again?

"REGGIE BULLOCK".

I don't even really want Sexton just used him as an example because Lonzo Ball is the PG I want who's an awesome defensive PG.

Did Miami get "destroyed" on defense during their 2019/2020 run with Duncan Robinson @ SF?

To each our own but imo Duncan Robinson is the type of player and an All-Time great 3PT shooter who can HELP lead your team to an NBA Finals (as he did in 2019/2020 during his 2nd NBA season and as a 1st year starter too).

I absolutely love this kid man.

He isn't good enough to tie up that much money to for 3-4 years for our situation. He is player you go after when you already have your stars and you're looking for that last piece or two. We're not there yet. Continue to take short contracts, build in the draft and young players until you finally get to the point in a year or two where you're ready for a Duncan Robinson-type player.


What do you think he will get? Probably more than mid-level, but if you look at similar guys Kennard and Bertrans you are looking at the 15M area no? Not exactly breaking the bank and if he doesn't crash, he is moveable


True but neither one of Dāvis Bertāns nor Luke Kennard can hold this kids jockstrap as 3PT shooters.

Duncan Robinson (previous 2 years of 2019-2020: 520 made 3's (.426%).

Vs.

Dāvis Bertāns (previous 2 years of 2019-2020) : 369 made 3's (.410%).

Luke Kennard (previous 2 years of 2019-2020) : 173 made 3's (.425%).

Duncan Robinson has (almost) made more 3's (520) than both Bertans and Kennard COMBINED (542) throughout the previous 2 years.

There's no comparison.

Kid should've been on our team USA too because we wouldn't be losing like this with him!

@ 6'7 he can play both SG and SF and started @ SF for Miami last year.

Only 27 years old and one of the most deadly 3PT shooters who've ever lived to play this game.

Career 3PT% of .423%.

That is. Unheard of. Especially after 1,254 3PT attempts (no small sample size).

His 3PT% is 13th All-Time and ahead of Klay Thompson who's 14th All-Time and also ahead of the likes of J.J. Redick, Glen Rice, Reggie Miller and Alan Houston too!

Not far behind Steph Curry 7th All-Time @ .433% either.

Duncan Robinson is an absolute sniper! and Miami NEVER makes the NBA Finals, without him.

His 3PT shooting ability and 3PT threat alone completely spreads out opposing Defenses and would absolutely open up the offense for both R.J. Barrett and Julius Randle to absolutely FEAST because you can't double team them while leaving Duncan Robinson open to destroy you from 3.

He shot .470% in 2019-2020 during Miami's NBA Finals run throughout the entire season. .470%?!?!? That's literally. Unheard of. .470%?

His 270 3s made ranks 15th All-Time during a single season (2019-2020).



He's my favorite potential FA outside of Kawhi Leonard @ SF (pipe dream) and I want this deadly sharp shooting sniper to capture our Allan H20 Houston hearts so bad and for many of years to come too.


Our Knicks already have enough of Tom Thibs #1 Defense but what we lack are two things. 1.) A SF and 2.) One of the greatest 3PT shooters who've ever lived to play this game.

C: Mitchell Robinson.
PF: Julius Randle.
SF: Duncan Robinson.
SG: R.J. Barrett.
PG: Lonzo Ball (or Collin Sexton).
6th: Immanuel Quickley.

Where was this against the Atlanta Hawks?



This kid is an absolute KILLER man.


He plays no defense. Do people know he was developed into the player he is today. Why can’t we try to develop knox who more athletic ability in his pinky than this kid. Btw he going want 15 mil a year

Last year was Bullock's 8th year in the league in comparison to Robinson's 3rd NBA season (nice of you to ignore that part).

Robinson: 250 made 3's (.408%).

Reggie: 2020-2021: 163 made 3's (.410%).

You can keep your little difference of .0.098% in 3PT percentage.

Are you really bragging about a difference of literally 0.098%? :lol: :lol: :lol: wow dude just wow.

PS: Don't you talk about 3PT% and who's better without first acknowledging Duncan Robinson has a CAREER 3PT% of .423% in comparison to your favorite Reggie Bullock CAREER 3PT% of .392% :lol:

Nice try.

Burks played 0 defense and look what happened with thibs, randle was a big negative on defense look what happened. Quick was horrible and got better.

When you have a defensive mastermind you get that man some offense so he can either mask his defense or teach him how to play it while shooting top 3 in the league with 3’s

People trying to compare Duncan Robinson to Reggie Bullock is laughable.

Duncan Robinson (2019/2020) = 520 made 3's (.426%).

VS.

"Reggie Bullock (2019/2020) = 200 made 3's (.393%).

Defenses don't even fear "Bullock" from 3 in comparison to Duncan Robinson who they're forced to game plan for.

Big time difference(s).

Not a good nor fair comparison.

Steve Novak was in the NBA for 11 years and only made 575 career 3's.

Robinson has been in the NBA for only 3 years and has already made 530 career 3's.

Novak = 52 3's made per year.
Duncan = 173 3s made per year.

No comparison in regards to overall impact.

And if we're going to make fun of this kids defense let's not forget he was Miami's starting SF for a team who made the NBA Finals with a 2019-2020 NBA Defense that ranked top 10 in the league in points allowed...10th and last year 5th.

Miami Defense 2019-2020 (Finals = 10th).
Miami Defense 2020-2021 (Playoffs = 5th)


Let's please stop acting and pretending as if he's some type of "team defense killer" despite starting on two top 10 Playoff Defenses (10th and 5th)..

Guys like Robinson, Harris, Bertans, etc and even guys like Bullock who play D are good players to have on your roster

They're not good players to give out multi-year deals of over 10 mil per to, unless you're Brooklyn and already have your superstars and need to overpay to keep a quality role player

Even then, it's debatable.

[B]Miami Defense 2019-2020 (Finals = 10th).
Miami Defense 2020-2021 (Playoffs = 5th)[b]

So once again, let's please stop acting and pretending as if he's some type of "team defense killer" despite starting on two top 10 Playoff Defenses (10th and 5th).

We'll we've already got an All-Star in Julius Randle and a soon to be up and coming (potential) All-Star in R.J. Barrett and I'm tired of losing. This kid is already one of the greatest 3PT shooters of All-Time and will HELP us become true contenders in the East.

Duncan Robinson previous 2 years = 520 made 3's.

Dāvis Bertāns previous 2 years = 369 made 3's.

Joe Harris previous 2 years = 383 made 3's.

That's all I'm trying to say man this kid is something special and ranks 13th All-Time in NBA 3PT%.

And he's not some type of team defense killer as Knicks fans are pointing him out to be because if so Miami Heat doesn't rank 10 in team defense on their way to the Finals in 2019 or 5th in team defense on their way to the Playoffs last year of 2020; we've got a Defensive guro in coach Thibs so we'll still rank top 5 on Defense too.

I disagree man he's more than just a good player he's one of the greatest and most deadly 3PT shooters of All-Time and he's only 27 years of age @ a position of weakness (SF) and Miami Heat never sniff the NBA Finals in 2019-2020 without this kid.

And come on man we just made the playoffs as a #4 seed during only coach Thibs 1st season so imo we shouldn't act as if our Knicks aren't ready to truly contend (with a couple of strong offseason acquisitions).

All-Time NBA 3PT% leaders
1.) Steve Kerr (.454%).
7.) Stephen Curry (.433%).
10.) Kyle Korver (.428%).

13.) Duncan [b]Robinson[/b] (.423%).

14.) Klay Thompson (.419%).

17.) J.J. Redick (.414%).
38.) Mark Price (.402%).
39.) Allan Houston (.401%).
44.) Danny Green (.400%).
46.) Peja Stojaković (.400%).
48.) Glen Rice (.400%).
48.) Ray Allen (.400%)
63.) Reggie Miller (.394%).
111.) Kevin Durant (.383%).
122.) Danilo Gallinari (.382%).
129.) Dirk Nowitzki (.380%).
164.) Larry Bird (.375%).

And no (before I get attacked) in no way shape or form an I saying that this kid is a better overall player than a lot of these guys mentioned above but what I am saying is that he's one of the greatest 3PT shooters of All-Time who I've ever lived to see play this game.

And this isn't a small sample size neither, this kid has already made 530 3's throughout 1,254 3PT attempts after only 3 years of NBA play and has a career 3PT% of .419% @ only 27 years of age (he's going to continue to get even more deadly as he continues to develop).

And during Miami's season of 2019/2020 where they made an NBA Finals? This kid shot 323/687 from 3 with an unheard of 3PT% of .446%. .446%? As only a 2nd year player? That's absolutely jaw dropping and mind boggling to me.

Duncan Robinson is the type of player who turns a 4th seed and a 1st round exit team into a true Conference contender while spreading out the court in order to make sure that both R.J. Barrett and Julius Randle can absolutely flourish without getting double teamed (or else Duncan Robinson kills you from 3 because you can not leave him open).

If we're to land Duncan Robinson? Well then I'd also be open to Sexton as well.

C: Mitchell Robinson.
PF: Julius Randle.
SF: Duncan Robinson.
SG: R.J. Barrett.
PG: Collin Sexton (or Lonzo Ball).

6th man: Immanuel Quickley.

How is that team not ready to compete (here in the East) until the likes of a Luka Dončić and Zion Williamson become available in 4-5 years from today?


I'm not saying he's bad, but he's not a third best player on your team player that you're going to have to give upwards of 15mm per year too.

If you give him this deal and he doesn't work out, it becomes a tough contract to move and you're realistically just a treadmill 5-6 seed if he doesn't really improve much from here.

I don't know, I see threads like these wanting to give guys like Duncan Robinson a big deal and I can't understand why ya'll want to be a lifetime 5 seed so bad.

This team isn't competing man. We don't even know if Julius is the real deal. You have to maintain flexibility if he doesn't maintain all-nba talent into next year. You honestly look at this starting lineup and think this is a championship roster?
