His camp had the reporter take down the tweet already

Son's shot started behind his head

@ISO dramatic as fukk with his hot takes comparing him to these bums and not giving him any props for the flashes . We’re about to get a real coaching staff this year. Let’s see how the boys develop before we start undervaluing them.

Robert Williams isn’t a bum. He just doesn’t play as much as Mitch because he’s on a much better team and they don’t prioritize the big in their system.

He was big for them in the Toronto playoff series. He’s a shorter Mitch with a longer wingspan and more strength and is a better passer.

They’re both athletic high motor rim runners who are foul prone and offensively raw. They actually both from Louisiana too.

Williams per 36: 14/12 with 2 steals and 3.2 blocks, 23.1 PER, 73% FG

Robinson per 36: 15/11 with 1.3 steals, 3 blocks, 23.5 PER, 74% FG

And Jaxson Hayes is 2 years younger than Mitch.

Classic Knicks fans overrating their players.

Son's shot started behind his head

So people know what we're talking about:

Looked even uglier in the video, he was just slinging it with two hands

Crazy that he changed his shot and his release point right before the draft when there was nothing wrong with it to begin with, so weird

only player i wouldnt trade is rj
mitch isnt as good as some ppl in here think he is.
he can go at da right price

Out here shooting like MKG

I know y'all are interested in him, but something has happened to Devin Vassell's shot.

Honestly, I'm not down on Vassell but I like Desmond Bane a lot and think we could get him trading up from 28 while we use 8 on a different need.

 

[RickyGQ]

Woods should be gettable if the Knicks are interested.

Rumor is the Warriors are shopping Wiggins and 2 while looking for an impact player in return but seem to be getting laughed off the phone. Say they get desperate, would y’all take on Wiggins for Lamelo or Edwards? Say the Warriors viewed Randle as a somewhat useful expiring for Wiggins and 2 and we keep our pick.

I mean he seems like a rim running big man....I don't think those guys are that rare especially when they want to be paid...Look how they did Capela.

robert williams(or jaxson for that matter) isnt a legit 7 footer and he could barely find time to play over a white boy that was getting torched by bam adebayo
robert williams 6'8 and we comparing him to mitch
I get tempering expectations. but if mitch can even have his talent come up to a quarter of his athleticism level we'll have a difference maker.
I mean rudy gobert isnt a bad comp....he's not as stiff as rudy however. Much lower IQ too....but the dude did just set a record for FG percentage
Speaks to his athleticism and motor if anything

Yeah, Rudy Gobert is a good target and not something you trade away on a whim. Mitch has a great contract and there's time to continue developing and evaluating him. I'd take 15 pts and 13 boards from the a perpetual DPOY candidate and run with it

Mitch can be Bam defensively when he adds some weight

 

[Ironman]

What is his development? Like I said I see Rudy Gobert not Anthony Davis.

Boys get geeked off his sloppy long nikka handle against amateurs that’s not gonna fly in game.

I don’t see the jumper being a thing for him. I see him getting stronger and learning discipline not dramatically improving skillwise maybe a hook shot becomes part of his arsenal.

The development staff just got signed bruhHow about we give Thibs and them a shot first

 

[Ty-Fife]

All our young guys are underdeveloped so let's get rid of 'em all

 

[Youhadasparkwhenustarted]

His camp had the reporter take down the tweet already

I saw it before it was taken down breh was shooting from behind his head and had a hitch too. Which trainer told him to gamble with his stock and alter his shot like that

Classic Knicks fans overrating their players.

Robert Williams has played 637 minutes in two seasons. Mitch played 1412 minutes this season alone.

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

We got rid of one big man with potential (porzingis) for jack shyt..... let’s get rid of another big man with potential for what could be brehs.

feel free to respond by saying I’m overrating our players
