Re. IQ Deuce and Grimes

None will be a starter here next season.

X
Fournier
Barrett
Randle
Noel

Shake well....

Meanwhile trade floating around has us getting Horton Tucker and Nun plus Russ who we would buy out.

Lose Noel Rand le and fournier


So, Kiid has pronounced IQ, Grimes and Deuce as second tier players.

AGAIN, THESE ARE NOT TRADES FLOATING AROUND...THEY ARE MASTURBATORY PHANTASIES by third rate, fourth string bloggers, rooted in NOTHING. 

THE PROPHET is promulgating blogosphere hallucinations, AND PASSING THEM OFF AS NEWS, in which we trade two starters and a rotation player in return for the uber redundancy of two, count 'em TWO Laker back court scrubs in Horton Tucjer and Nunn [who was injured the entire season] and Westbrook, only to drop or buy out Russell.  And what, the Lakers 2027 #1? 

And the link to the other "trade" was a three team spectacular in which we end up with the same fucking backcourt redundant scrubs, while Randle ends up...

On The NYETS. 

Thanks for sharing

I expect to be trolled for suggesting that we commit to IQ and Jokubaitis in 2022-2023. 

With Rose and McBride.  That's 4 PGs. 

Philly committed to developing Maxey when Simmons was off the reservation, and it paid dividends.  And with the arrival of Harden, Maxey was able to shift to combo guard, playing both on and OFF the ball. 

I would also like us to commit to minutes for Reddish at SF and PF in small ball configs. 

To resign Mitchell. 

To pay heed to late season Obi, who addressed how he and Julius had spoken of playing C/PF with Julius.  Both are the same size as Miami's BamBam.  And Taj.  Why the fuck not? 

During the stretch in which IQ and Obi had their coming out party, the Knicks played with considerably more ball movement, cutters and PACE. 

Let's see what Thibs has learned. 

PS: Johnny Bryant has apparently gotten IQ and Obi on a "hot yoga" regimen.  Que es esta?  Anyone?

Rokas Jokubaitis
« Reply #23612 on: May 12, 2022, 04:57:19 PM »

I would be surprised if the Knicks go all in on Rokas this coming season, but they did draft him at #34, so they saw something. 

I suspect he doesn't come over until 2023-2024. 

Will be interesting to see if Thibs can overcome his addiction to VETS.  We are not yet a contender.  We are a developing team, and youth must be served.  Of course you need vets, but in looking at the Pelicans and the Grizzlies in the playoffs, there is something to be said for how they fast tracked their puppies, and how said puppies competed. 

Anyway, I do not know quite how to interpret what takeaways Thibs took from 2021-2022, and how he might evolve. 

We shall see. 

Meanwhile, YOUTH IS BEING SERVED IN THE PLAYOFFS.

I think just as interesting is whether there's another team out there (or even the same one) that actually thinks they can win a championship with James Harden.

Man is JH ever a lifetime playoff fail....ain't gonna get better as he gets older and fatter!

Hard to believe 76ers had Butler/Embid together and let that slip away. They'll probably pay for that forever.

But how about FRANKIE SMOKES!!!! LAYING DOWN THE CLAMPS AGAINST BOOKER & PAUL. All the minutes when it mattered most. Frankie & Bullocks - the defensive law!!


**Thibs was such an ass-clown lol w that put him on Trae for 1 play stuff, turrible

***Kidd showing himself as a very flexible effective coach, quite a contrast with our human manatee

 Yeah JH was better off in BK.  Can't project him well with his current team.  Maybe a new coach has some ideas that might be beneficial.

1.5 points per game with a half a rebound and .8 assists

4 steals and a block alternately locking up C. Paul and D. Booker down the stretch in an elimination game, you better like him:)


** bonus value: allowing himself to be used as a human weapon by Jae Crowder to destroy Chris Pauls thumb in advance of game 7.
