I'm mad at KP. Fuck you dude. You have nothing but boos coming.
I can be mad at the Knicks but I have no insight into if there were better deals coming.
I have to believe the Knicks did what was best for the Knicks.
Just like KP and his bro were only looking out for themselves.
KP posted a pic of him and Luka before posting a picture thanking the NY fans.
Boo this man.
This all day.
The player we all had to keep, less than 24 hours after being traded:

Wait, what?
There's a picture of KP smiling since he's been traded?
My God! What an evil scum bucket!
Show me no more. You've shattered my faith in human beings.
Are you a block of ice or a human being? Or perhaps a troll apparently trying to one up people instead of understanding reasons he could have played it a bit more kind to Knick fans?
Do you care about that at all? You know the ones that called him some kind of savior and found any possible way to make excuses, watching those comeback videos over the summer, and defending him profusely, some loudly against trading him as he didn't show the same interest back? How should they take it or we interpret that?
It feels like you don't give a care that a lot of our fans are very upset about this, or KP's messages through social media. I'm actually not as mad, but making a point that the guy didn't care about us as much as we did - to the point where he was not buying in NOW and wanted out - and that's part of the reason why we were right to trade him.
His first Twitter post shortly after the trade with a smirking emojie and video clip/gif joking with Doncic at his last game at MSG. Then an Instagram post saying, "The Truth will come out 
"
Then this image and story. All less than a day later. Fans deserve better than someone like him.
Sorry to know you have such low standards for how fans should be treated by someone who leaves and is loved so much. Melo, who didn't win jack got a standing O. You think KP will get that?
Hellz no. Hmmm...wonder why???
Actually...Eureka, you're best friends with KP and Kanter (It was you who went out of your way to defend that other false idol, right?)
It's a goddamn game. Yeah, I've got a passion for it, but I'm not making a villain of Kanter or imagining that an image of KP smiling or weeping means fuckall.
Everyone has an opinion why KP is gone. We'll know in the future, just like we'll know whether the trade doomed the franchise or saved it. Until then...I'll hang on to fantasies of an Irving-Duncan lineup or some such shit, but I'm not going to vilify anyone. These guys just play ball.
A villain? Nah, mostly concerned with fans going crazy over him when I see a used car salesman, and I know I'm not alone.
Kanter seems to me to be trying to hustle our desperate, traumatized fan base for his own personal gain. He's playing the public image game, in one regard, but playing himself in other ways. Some think he's just who he is. Really? I dunno, I have doubts, and I don't expect miracles either with him, like fans who say just play defense. To me, he just can't. Like Amar'e and other players who no matter what won't be good at it. if that's the case, and you cause more harm than good to a team, why do I want you as a fan?
His approach to his being benched could represent a particular version of capitalism, one that utilizes convenience and practical ideas such as negotiation tactics, political capital, etc. to get what you want, no matter what. Sometimes it seems this way.
Problem is this is a business with fans as the primary source of revenue. Something is amiss here, part of which is a lack of understanding of NY fans. We're not all chanting for Kanter to play. A lot feel the complete opposite, but he either doesn't realize that or blocks it out. That's one aspect of the misread but so is the concept of "getting mine" in a hyper-competitive world of the highest level of pro sports for top athlhetes, and particularly the NBA with its more complex CBA/salary cap. We can go back to Lebron's "decision" (similar), Melo's, Lakers blocked trade for Paul, KD's move to GS, AD's moves and now KP, but bigger problem is KP and Kanter are not on that level.
That doesn't make them villains, just shitty at working the crowd. Maybe it's due to not being American or not in NY long enough to understand. I dunno, but something is awry and we're done with them both, clearly.
Kanter, fortunately, is mostly irrelevant so it means less for us and will be forgotten by most. If he was still in OKC he'd be invisible. No one would care at all as he'd have no audience. Wonder if he's figured that out?? Hmmm...
KP comes across as possibly similarly ignorant to me about who he is and where he is. It's very sad, but I think both have shown colors that I would never want as a manager or leader on my team after feeling I've tried to work with them repeatedly, or even honestly sent messages that one's time was up (Kanter). Then to have that employee try to hustle the leadership by using their popularity with a certain loud, and who I'd call ignorant set of fans who he does not realize is not the full fanbase? Nah, you're stepping outside of your area. Maybe it's a mistake, as that can happen, but it's not just one time. It's a pattern.
