How then does competition between Rose, Quickley and McBride play out for the 16-20 potential minutes behind or abreast of Brunson?

« on: August 16, 2022, 01:00:57 PM »RJ is a shooting guard. Cam is a small forward. Both are talented and capable players. There is no mess.
Cam is a BIG Wing, capable of coverage at the 2-3-1. He has many areas for potential improvement, such as rebounding, better 3 point consistency, and getting to the FT Line more often considering he is an excellent FT SHOOTER. But he is a GOOD DEFENDER, and that is his point of entry into rotation minutes.
RJ, as well as Fournier AND Grimes, are also BIG WINGS, checking in at 6'6", 6'7" and 6'5" respectively.
Competition between Reddish, Barrett, Fournier and Grimes for minutes next to Brunson will be a big part of training camp.

Just some workout tapes, and the level of competition is nothing to get keyed up about, but Cam is looking healthy and focused.

« on: August 15, 2022, 09:16:42 PM »I hope Ainge gets an offer he likes better from elsewhere than what we are willing to give up.
I'm not sold on the idea that they even trade Mitchell.
CLEARLY, Ainge is willing to sell him for a King's Ransom, and Gobert is the template.
But Mitchell is what, 26, and signed for three more years?
Latest poop has the Jazz trying to pull off a sign and trade with the Cavs for Sexton, to team him WITH Mitchell, which makes more sense.
Don't think they could palm off Conley on the Cavs, which is in the range Sexton wants to be paid, at 22 million. Unless of course Ainge is willing to pony up multiple #1 picks, and see how he likes it to be on the receiving end. An insane contract they gave Conley on the tail end of a fine, and overpaid career.
Likewise, Bogdonavich on and ending at $19.5 and some draft capital could probably get it done.
Mitchell, Conley, Sexton, Clarkson, Alexander-Walker Beverley would be a pretty stacked set of failitators and wings.
Anyway, just spitballing, because Ainge's expectations of a Knicks deal, and fans projections, are delusional.
Sometimes the best move is NO MOVE AT ALL.

Pretty basic read on Kam. Interesting mention of the Early Group. Maybe something worth keeping and building rather than breaking up for another shiny object.
So far
So GOOD
Hasn't been a throw-in for any silly transactions.
Will have an opportunity to compete and make a case for himself with Thibs from Day One.
Got to figure, given that this is a earn your next contract year, the trade of Burks, and the presence of R.J. that he will be motivated.

Basketball / Dolan
« on: August 14, 2022, 06:35:42 PM »Ainge could be trying to end run Leon and deal with Dolan.
Otherwise he is looking forward to building around Mitchell, as one should.
What is our story with exhibit 10s, or another way who are the bit players showing up to camp?
The last times Dolan interceded were on deals brokered by Masai Ujiri, in Denver AND in Toronto.
In both cases, spineless/brainless Donnie Douche and Glenn Grunwald were taken to the cleaners on The Melo and Bargnani deals by Masai Ujiri.
Jimmy The Jizz put his foot on the accelerator with the Melo deal, seemingly signed off or was napping on the Bargnani Deal, and SLAMMED HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKES on the last Masai Ujiri encounter, which would've brought Kyle Lowry to the Knicks--terrified that Masai was going to finger blast him yet again. Debateable whether or not Lowry would've ascended in our broken culture as did on the tough love of Coach Dwayne Casey, who pushed him to ramp up his conditioning and believed in KL as his lead guard.
Since dispensing with Phool Jagoff and Steve Mills, Dolan has been serenley content to remain beyond the fray with Leon Rose and Company ruddering the ship. Not to mention that he has been roundly humliated in all of his pursuits of the GREAT STAR, from getting shut out by LeBron and Chris Bosh, to publically shat on by Kevin Durant and Kyrie.
The fact that Rose and WWW and Aller and Perry and Perin have not allowed themselves to be bamboozled by fucking Ainge is reassuring. Danny finger blasted the Wolves, and he figures that is now the template. He is sadly mistaken. My sense of things is that GMs league wise were utterly horrified by that transaction and are not lining up to give Danny Boy a reach around.
Hey, maybe the price comes down to Earth, but it says here, Mitchell is the Jazz bell cow, not the Knicks', in 2022-23.

Reliable sources indicate that Danny Ainge is insisting on six #1 draft picks plus Quentin Grimes, Obi Toppin, Immanuel Quickley AND Jacob deGrom in any Donovan Mitchell transaction.
Sounds good to me.
Be careful what you wish for Knicks fans.

The strength of Jesus game was not his jumper, though it was respectable, but his crossover and passing skills. Impeccable.
