The vets are killing the young players' development
Everyone is saying Randle is slowing down Mitch's development
He's also slowing down RJ's
Watching Randle is misery

Deandre ain't practicing 3s fam nor does his jumper look nearly as fluid

realistically fam, mitch is not gonna turn into some sharp shooter. he just isn't.

 

[seemorecizzy]

Jordan at his peak was a first team all-NBA center, all-star and all-defense.


If Mitch is anywhere close to that, keep him and don't let him leave. Y'all overthink this shyt.

again, you are missin the point.
as good as deandre jordan was, there was never a point in his career where he was considered untouchable.
we gotta stop overvaluing our players, been doing that shyt since the channin frye days

 

[Wargames]

Knicks need to prioritize trading Morris for a pick and/or young players. Moneywise I could see Portland trading us their 1st tied to Bazemore for Marcus and filler. They need defensive Roleplayers more than just scoring.

Too bad no Kyrie this evening. Frankie would have been on him like transgenders and straight men who had too much to drink

 

[Peter Popoff]

Knox needs to dunk instead of doing layups at 6'9. That would step his offense game up a lot.

It's not overvaluing guys. The Knicks are not in a situation where they need good players. Draft a good one. Then another one. Then another one. Then another one. Build a core up first. Is Mitch untouchable? For now, he might as well be. Is someone right now right offering you a big star for Mitch? No. What do you do then? You keep him and build with him. The Clippers never traded him. They knew what they had. They never felt like using him to upgrade somewhere else was a good idea. They locked him in his house to keep him around. He's early on in year 2 on a 2nd round rookie deal. The Knicks aren't at a point yet where Mitch or RJ being used as trade pieces make any sense. The return you'd want for them simply isn't available.

Mitch and RJ right now are the only 2 players you should bet the house on. Straight up.

This is why Fiz need to be fired . We cannot win or develop the team constantly throwing Randle out as the featured star with Morris. Randle needs to be second team duty . Him and Morris are actively hurting rJ development with their play

 

[JMurder]

nikkas saying "I'd trade Mitch for the right price"

I'm curious to know what that price would be that doesn't include gutting the entire team for a flawed Superstar

 

[Oroko Saki]

You guys are crazy to want to trade Mitchell. He has such length and toe strength to propel him off the hardwood floor and reach heights most other players cannot reach. Only weakness i see is his lack of glute strength but I am super excited about tonights game and all this talk Im doing about toes, glutes and hard wood has me even more excited

Franklin is going to shut the whole Nets team down

The front office signed Randle to be an All-Star this season remember

Randle is a "bully", a "dog", and a "hardworker" he'll get it together breh it's only been 16 games right?

I don't think this is on Fiz. Fiz in Memphis wasn't afraid to shake things up. He's the one who moved Zach Randolph to the bench and forced Marc Gasol to take more three pointers. Could very well be Perry and Mills shot calling.

Deandre Jordan can't shoot. We've seen Mitch actually attempt and hit shots. Defensively a DJ maybe and there's nothing wrong with that but he has untapped potential offensively in my opinion. I've seen him do a little dribble ro get to the paint he just hasn't put that together yet. Also, he's 20 that be foolish to just trade him like that.

Mitch isn't 20, he turns 22 this season actually.

He's already an elite vertical spacer and rim protector. He just needs to pack weight and become more disciplined/get more respect from refs.

He's close to untouchable for us I believe. A lot of y'all do overrate him comparing him to Anthony Davis though.

 

[Columbo]

I still cant get over how Pills and Perry made those signings and expected us to be a borderline playoff team

Well here we are, competing for the worst record in the league. Again

As much as i don't like watching Randle this is really a bad situation for him and its hurting whatever value he had. Its a bad fit

Between that, the jumping off the Knox bandwagon, to trading Mitch, and the gay shredder being back

Yeah Mitch is a centerpiece

Good critique of Frank
