A lot of shyt going on behind the scenes with this version of the knicks. There was barely any drama last season
Emperor Dolan's got cameras everywhere you got to be upfront and not leak stuff. These sources don't know shyt. The front office has done a great job at keeping situations in house.

NY sportswriters popping bottles. Long playoff run ending in heartbreak leading into locker room drama. It must feel like Christmas
Seriously. It’s been a while since they’ve had something to really go off on in sports radio. “Julius Randle isn’t good enough” for fringe playoff teams just didn’t hit the same.

Any one who doesn’t want a Hall of Famer coming off 27/6/4 on 53/43/84 splits, who averaged 1.16 (!) points per possession in isolation is an idiot. He fixes a lot for us on both sides of the ball.

To save who? Mikal fukking Bridges, Anunoby, KAT :russ:

Get out yo feelings
:camby:

+ scrambling in Game 3 (which happened to work)
You’re reading too deep into it.

Delon nor Shamet have much time left in the league.

Those guys were effective as spot players with fresh legs in those moments and it’s not like they were heavy lifting on offense. They just plugged holes. The series showed the Pacers had far superior depth.

Had they been playing regularly they had been exploited especially Shamet with his lack of foot speed, physicality, and shooting consistency.

Delon is a smart floor general big guard and can defend you can live with him in spurts but at the end of the day he’s not going to make shots this is a guy that’s shot under 40% over the last two seasons from the floor.

The Knicks also only won that game because KAT started making circus shots after a horrendous first 3 quarters on both ends.

Knicks are scrambling at the moment and trying to skip steps in the process.

Imagine being Jalen Brunson you take a steep pay cut and they fire your coach and now there’s rumblings about your pops. Instead of celebration and admiration after leading this franchise to their best season in 25 years it’s a cloud of negativity and uncertainty.

Michael Kay on his radio show said a source told him World Wide Wes went over Rose and convinced Dolan to fire Thibs. He also said that some front office members didn’t like that he got a lot of the credit for the turnaround.
I don’t believe it. Dolan has been hands off for over a decade since Phil first came on.

We finally have become respectable and If this came out to be true, this would set the franchise back.

There is starting to be some smoke around Jason Kidd. Nothing definitive and probably all speculative but smoke none the less.

Ugh. I really hope not.
I am not going to hold you Jason Kidd sort of makes sense. We were just saying we needed someone to help Brunson evolve as a playmaker at the PG position. He’s helped him develop before. He’s gone to the conference finals and finals. He’s known for doing a lot of lineup experiments during the season. To the point he will lose a regular season game to see how a lineup does under heavy minutes. Plus low-key Nico not telling him they was going to trade Luka was some bullshyt.

Flagg, AD, and Kyrie probably not making the playoffs since the west getting tougher.

The Rockets came out and immediately said Ime wasn’t available…. The Mavs haven’t
