Julius is my guy. The beast. But I mean another 1A guy coming back for all those picks n yute.

I tried to watch the Nets a few times last season. It hurt.

Miles Bridges didn't show me (*(^.$ Ever. Half the time it was like he wasn't there. Just some guy in a uni.

So I'm like, ALL those assets for a guy who is 99% LESS DOG than the guy he's replacing in the starting lineup?


Especially when, with iHart leaving, we have a pretty big hole anytime Mitch blows his nose and a pretty big hole all the time cause there ain't no offense generation from that spot.

Maybe the Villa love fest lights the fire. Maybe he was miscast in Brooklyn. Maybe it was just too hard watching his friends having fun without him in MSG. Maybe I'm totally off. Maybe he's just what we need.

I absolutely love our team. But this is why I don't LOVE the trade like everybody else.

Before the 2023-2024 season if you said the Knicks will trade for Bridges and Anunoby and the cost is RJ+IQ+iHART+5 picks I think we all sign for it.

Ya gotta add Grimey in there too..cause he brings Bogey who goes for Bridges.

Basically all our youth cept Deuce and the better part of our pick ammo.

I flat out love our team. I can't wait for the coming season.

But I don't personally blow that wad without a 1 or 1A guy coming back and suspect we're capped at ECF with out a scoring or facilitating big

**** barring injuries to the other contenders.

That said, I ONLY think it's a good move IF we keep iHART...OTHERWISE, a really bad move lol...

so no way a four offensive position team gets past a five position team. Pending the next move, I rescind my approval of the big move. Still fun to watch.... But a healthy C's gonna wax our ass...

If Hartenstein leaves, well, then we really needed to save those five picks for the 1A scorer mega deal, just the facts, not that he's baby Jokic or anything, but he's a true offensive cog, and there are limits to how far you can go with just four wheels, ECF capped; we want and deserve more, I do believe we are getting it.

my thoughts?? OMF"ING GOD

haven't been this excited for a coming Knick season since the day I stuck my head out a window on Claremont Ave. screaming joy to the world after we won the first draft lottery.

We're adding Bridges to this crew without giving up anybody?????

That said, I ONLY think it's a good move IF we keep iHART...OTHERWISE, a really bad move lol...Celtics kill us again if we're running four on offense v. five, if old man Horford and Pingus Tingus are bombing threes and putting the ball on the floor and all we got at that spot is Mitch lob catches.

But I think we're keeping iHart. I think that's what yesterday was all about. If so, this is gonna be so damn good.

lol, smacked myself for that repeatedly throughout the series.

really impressive how JB & Tatum evolved.

and of course, Jrue is Jrue, you could make a reasonable case there for final's MVP too.

in hindsight, considering iHarts emergence and Mitch's continued frailty, this surely would have been interesting:

These games are incredible.

I don't even know what to say about Brunson anymore.

Just spectacular.

What a year, what a run, wherever it ends

What a finish, wow, I do believe the curse of Reggie Miller has finally been extirpated from the Garden.



**** Which is good, cause if Jalen keeps hogging his way to 25+ shots each game, we ain't winning ^&$^ at Wells Fargo center, pass the f'n ball

Not quite a breakthrough game, but Bogey looking better last night.

Good thing cause still no sign of our missing forwards returning.

More Shake and Precious. Less Bogdan and no Burks.

No argument here. Tho still hoping B & B can function better in their roles once (if) the A team returns...

I think we did. Way better performance than the porcine horror show everybody is still drooling over.

(REALLY? THE MOST CHUCKS SINCE KOBE'S FRAUDULENT FAREWELL, LOL, SERIOUSLY....)

OKC is gonna be so scary for so long. Was kinda hoping Deuce would get a wee breather while SGA was out early 4th, crazy huge ask placed on him, (and everybody, you could see Hart/Dante/all just run out of leg and lung during that OKC comeback) of course, that would have meant more minutes for the shell of Burks, Thibs has to handle some difficult situations these days.

Anyway, almost took a ridiculously tough team. Maybe our missing guys come back sometime.

longer than three..like last six

5:32         Jalen Brunson steps out of bounds turnover
5:03      Jalen Brunson misses driving layup
4:51      Jalen Brunson misses running pullup jump shot
4:08      Jalen Brunson makes 10-foot two point shot
3:33      Jalen Brunson misses 8-foot two point shot
2:51      Jalen Brunson makes 14-foot pullup jump shot
2:17      Jalen Brunson misses 25-foot three point pullup jump shot
1:41      Jalen Brunson misses driving floating jump shot
1:14      Jalen Brunson makes 5-foot two point shot
36.0      Jalen Brunson misses 19-foot step back jumpshot

 
flat-out lost us the game against a bad team that hasn't been able to close the fourth all year.

Jalen, our floor leader gifted them the opportunity by refusing to make them think and play basketball as he went full Melo in pursuit of the scoring record. Most FGAs in the fucking league all year. SO EZ for the Spurs. Just double the HOG.

Tired of hearing bullshit about selfless leader..butt selfish, butt stupid hero ball. With every possession the rest of team grows staler and more ineffective.

Thibs and Jalen try that *ish in the playoffs and we are looking at first-round out for sure. GUARANTEED.
