Re: Woj Kemba buying out of okc signing with NYC
it won't happen but thibs has a deep team that can allow him to play randle/rj 32 minutes max.
there's a world that has rj/randle being the only two playing over 30 minutes and robinson/noel/obi/burks/fournier/rose/iq all get 20-25 minutes.

Who is losing minutes? Burks?
Knicks re-signed Burks to play him 10 mpg?
There is an odd man out in a Thibs rotation. It's just a matter of if you think it's Burks or IQ.
That's a good point for sure. What I don't see is any minutes for the draftees.
Grimes and McBride are in the G League all year unless there's an injury.

I get that what I think should happen won't happen with this fake win coach.
Payton played 18mpg in the second half. Definitely not starters minutes. Starting him was stupid, but he didn't play much at all.
Yeah what about the first half? Minutes are minutes for young players totally irrelevant that he finally was embarrassed into reducing Paytons minutes.Randle led the league in minutes because he was a legit MVP caliber player last year.
Good lord some of you are drowning in the MSG Kool Aid. He wasn't even a league average efficiency player. He put up counting stats playing berserk minutes on a 7 or 8 seed roster in a normal year. Legit MVP?

are all a wide margin better than Randle. MVP caliber is insane.
First half I believe Payton played 22mpg. Still not starters minutes as you claimed. You didn't counter one example I mentioned about Thibs keeping the young guys down. RJ, Mitch, Quickley, the young guys that mattered, all played significant minutes and played well. Knox and Frank are barely NBA players, there was a reason they barely played.
And yes, Randle was clearly an MVP caliber player last year. 24/10/6 with 41% from 3 on a #4 seed when the expectations were garbage is an MVP caliber type season. I never said he was better than any of those guys. Take Randle away from the team and we're probably one of the worst 2-3 teams in the league last year. Did anyone expect us to sniff the playoffs let alone be the 4 seed? That's mostly due to Randle's huge jump in play. Period. He's only 3 years older than Obi, and Obi was TERRIBLE from the start last year, only showing flashes closer to the end of the season. Randle was 25 when the season started. That's a young player getting development, even if we didn't draft him. Bottom line is, Thibs played a 20 year old and a 25 year old huge minutes and they both improved immeasurably. He played IQ significant minutes when nobody thought he'd even make it off the bench. That is player development. Kemba changes none of this.

Dammit, Jimmit, you're right!
And unlike when we got Marbury, the Knicks aren't a cesspool of a mess this time around.
Oh my God..... Imagine u put steph on this team.... Instant contender. One of my favorite players ever growing up in queens.
Refs never gave him his and1... He'd have to get shot to call a foul

How the F is he MVP caliber if he isn't better than any of these dudes? MVP of the Knicks ... sure. Instead of using the MVP hyperbole just say he's a good player.

It shows how deluded and scarred the fan base is. They can't even look at the guys injury history, it would force them to wake up from the dream.
Kind of odd to be calling people deluded sheep, feeling bad for them as clowns and flashing some X-rays that the guy will never walk again. What’s wrong with a little hope. A lot of athletes are moving towards stem cell treatment.
Because thoughts and prayers don't grow cartilage. Because Boston traded him for a wretched contract and had his medicals, they know what the poor guy is dealing with. His left knee is cooked. He's tried everything, I don't doubt his work ethic or competitive spirit. If you have bone bruises its a bad sign, and having less or no cartilage is just never (currently) something that gets better. I'd rather just play the young guards we drafted last year and this year. He'll play 25-30 minutes, get hurt and you'll all act surprised, meanwhile our young players will just drone away on the bench and end up not even getting extensions.
Name the last Knicks draft pick to sign a second contract here?
