So appears Leon has moved on from slowly accumulating #1s to slow squittering them away.

Hart basically cost us 2, but 3 was a bridge too far for DM, lol....

Guess it could be worse..(lavine), marginally improved on court, but yawner of a trade deadline for us.

Hey, doggie, stop whining about Donovan. Leon got you Brunson.

That is your superstar, or at least a difference maker.

PS. I still want you to replace you know who.

[Sigh]

We were looking at some #2s for Cam.

* We got back a rotation player who has a deep bond with our Bell Cow and fits the coach's system/culture.

* We still have the Dallas #1 pick, and God forbid, the Wizards stay healthy and make the play-in, that's another #1 pick.  And going forward, we have all out own #1 picks, and beside the Wiz, protected #1s from Detroit and Milwaukee.

* Number One picks?  Overlooking Rose & Fournier, we have eleven roster spots pretty much locked up.  We potentially have Jeffries and Keels in Westchaster.  We have Jokubaitis on ice in Madrid.  This trade was a roll of the dice on us as a playoff team. 

* Forunier & Rose remain as dependable in case of fire break glass option, and are certainly dealable come summer time. 

* We maxed out value for Reddish and bench jockeys, and Dawg is still howling at the moon over fucking Donovan Mitchell.  Yikes

* Dawg is yawning at Leon?  Hey, dude.  Leon moved from Elfrid and Scored us JALEN, who had a ripple effect on Julius, Grimes and IQ...RJ still figuring it out.  Leon did NOT TAKE THE BAIT with either Danny Or Masai.  We did not go all in on the pursuit of a "superstar mirage" shiny object such as Lavine or OG.  We have a young developing core, ample draft assets.  And, AGAIN, we scored a solid rotational player for spare parts who fits Thibs' System, can do all of that boring, awww, poor Dawg's dick ain't hard stuff like defend, facilitate, rebound and do all manner of positive things on offense.  Back in Octboer he lit up the Knicks for 10 points and 19 rebounds.

* SighMoan Bowl-a-Bar is still calling for Thibs head, even though we have a winning record, and are incrementally getting better, and making a playoff run. 

We all have issues with Thibs, but it is interesting that his players are ALL VERY COMMITTED AND LOYAL. And for someone who doesn't play youth, Thibs's system has proven nurturing to the likes of IQ, Deuce, Grimes, Sims, Mitchell, Isaiah and dare we suggest, RJ and Obi.  And both Jalen and Julius have dramatically upped their games and leadership. 

It's called PROGRESS, guys.  Slow, grinding, incremental. 

But y'all are yawning?

BE still my HEART.

"Dare we suggest?"

Agree with most, but naw, I wouldn't suggest that. Obi is developing under the Knicks? An athlete with his gifts? Only if we're using a mighty low bar. And RJ. Yeah he's improved since he came on the team. But no discernible improvement to my eye between last year and this. Is he being developed or nursed? Or a combo thereof?

Both you AND Chamaco are totally committed and unconditional. The THIBBIES team.

I would rather find a better coach for the Knicks.

So far, you have offered no tenable candidates, save for your recurring joke about Mike Miller.

Leaving us with naught but enmity.

Hard to take that seriously.

I think you take our banter too seriously.

I do not feel any kind of enmity or animosity over Thibs spilled blood. I hope you dont either.

Hart was a good step, on a level with dodging LaVine.

Now let us see what buyouts this all leads to. There might be one or two more shoes to drop.
