Oh, Jalen.......
Brunson had shot it very well in 9 of his last 10 but last night's 6-20 needed a Julius bailout.

Basketball / Re: KNICK ON WOOD [Rokas Jokubaitis...Yes, I Can Hear Y'all Snickering]
« on: February 25, 2023, 12:28:39 PM »FC Barcelona youngster Rokas Jokubaitis was drafted by the New York Knicks with the 34th pick in the 2021 NBA draft. The Lithuanian guard has been improving his craft in Europe ever since but the hope to debut in the NBA doesn't fade.
Spanish sports outlet Mundo Deportivo interviewed Knicks' head coach Tim Thibodeau who revealed that the club was impressed with Jokubaitis.

"It would be more a question for the front office but we liked it a lot when he played the Summer League," Thibodeau said. "I hope he has a good season and then in the summer, we'll see. But yes, I would like to see him."
Jokubaitis has a contract with Barcelona until the year 2025 but the deal features an NBA out after each season.
yeah...he aint comin
More likely to be dealt (rights) than be a Knick.

Hey Joe!
You running in 2024 or not?
POLITICO, the Pravda of the Progressives, is getting worried that Biden is hedging on political problems and a second term.
A sense of doubt is creeping into conversations around 2024,Politico claimed Wednesday after the Biden failure to promptly announce a reelection campaign that was said to be set for February but is now allegedly pushed back to April. But even that target is less than definitive. People in the know say there is no hard deadline or formal process in place for arriving at a launch date.
According to three people familiar with the conversations the Biden indecision has hurt the Democrat Party by way of blocking any plan B that might need to be assembled if Biden does not run.
His indecision has resulted in an awkward deep freeze across the party i. which some potential presidential aspirants and scores of major donors are strategizing and even developing a Plan B while trying to remain respectful and publicly supportive of the 80 year old President.

clearly running
Looks good of late. Except occasionally. Tough to figure. If he was running it all, we could worry.

Ya'all think Jacques is God. Jacques wont play Simmons big minutes. Lets see how it works out. I think he should be out there 30+ every night - then we can see the number, the number of wins and we can talk.

Reddish 2-8 in Portland win
Team is 1-1, Cam at 40% shooting (6-15) in 18.5 minutes per. Thybule arrived, so there is that.......
I wonder if Blazers fans will champion Reddish.

Talking points - got it?
The officials told lawmakers that the US has assessed that little new intelligence was gleaned by the Chinese balloon operation because the Chinese appeared to stop transmitting information once the US learned of the balloon, in addition to US measures to protect sensitive intelligence from Chinas spying operations, according to the sources.
The US also believes what they have recovered from the shot down balloon is beneficial to US intelligence, the sources said
