so we'll probably see a couple more Knicks enter H&S protocols

at least Obi and RJ should be back soon

Were Evan and Randle "defending" Josh last game?

Neither got close enough to get sick. Don't worry.

Obi's play has made me feel much better about missing out on Tyrese. Now we just have to figure out a way to get him more minutes.

Obi's been a nice surprise this year besides the 3-point shooting but I still can't believe we passed on Haliburton.

Folks talking about how this FO nailed the draft but I can't give you that credit if (if) you messed up with your most important pick like that.

Hopefully Obi finds a role where he gets consistent minutes and shows what he can do.

As someone who was never a fan of the Obi pick, I'm not too mad about that

Until there's a star guy that develops out of that group, so long as Obi stays solid, it's not too bad. Not great, cause of the positional flexibility argument, but not as bad as the Frank/Knox picks.

I like what I've seen from Obi and I hope the franchise gives him the keys to the 4 spot over Randle down the line. If only to know what we have in Obi.

But as of right now, Obi doesn't project as a starter in the NBA imo, whereas Hali does, so I still think the pick was a blunder.

Obi can't be a starting 4 in this league if he's shooting below below 20% from 3. He can't be a starting 5 if he's not a more consistent defender, although he's shown some nice flashes. He needs to improve in either one of those areas.

But you're right that he at least looks like a legit rotation player in the NBA. And I'd love to see him be the roll man as the starting 4 for this team playing next to a 5 like Turner.

A PNR partnership of Rose-Obi, with Turner at the 5 and wing shooters would be more exciting to watch than this crap.

Wake me up if Obi ever puts up 27/11 of anything, besides 27 instances of looking like Shaggy running up and down the floor.

Haliburton was even CAA and filled multiple needs...too easy of a pick

He didn't fill the most important need, that of Leon Rose's son to build a new inground pool with his commission off his client.

Fitz getting that free look as interim in LA.
Fitz can fake some defensive coaching and had some good looks vs chi.
They been tired of Vogel I wonder if this is even on their radar.

Easiest pick ever. Me and Wingo called him being the pick earlier in the year. He checked every box, but flashy.

CAA
Point Guard
Can shoot
Top 3 passer games in the draft
A good defender

I swear some of us can draft better than the ppl getting paid millions to do it.
