Official '24-25 NY Knicks Offseason Thread

More importantly, they need a 2 guard who can guard the point of attack. My nominee is Lonzo Ball. It’s a gamble on his health but he can play on and off ball on offense and set Brunson up for some Catch and Shoot opportunities. Also allows Mikal to play more help defense which is his bigger strength.

Can't have him out there with Thibs as a coach have you forgotten about Deng and , he will be out for the season by mid-January.

Brunson needs to be more of a facilitator and not force shots.

Don't dribble the ball for 20 seconds and throw up a brick or get trapped into a double team by Indiana.

Thibs would have no problem putting him on a minutes restriction if it means he can get Josh back in the game

LMAO

That's my g.o.a.t player , but I see why he didn't work out as a coach or team executive.

It all but guarantees that Josh is not it.

He's a free agent?

What's our financial situation in regards to the first and second apron

He’s not. He makes 10 million a year. It’d have to be a precious s&t. We’d probably have to throw in a pick or two.

Lonzo Ball can’t play 30 games he is beyond damaged goods and doesn’t shoot well consistently enough

We still have picks we can trade

3 i think. (Not that we should).

Edit: 2. We can trade the 26 Wizards protected pick and i think our 2031 pick.

still better than whatever tf Payne think he doing

 

[mvp_status]

Either threaten Thibs with forcing him to watch clips of opposing team offensive rebounds on an endless loop unless he plays Kolek next year

Or throw the taxpayer MLE at Tyus Jones this summer

I'm good on offering what few assets we have for a cripple

Knicks in 7.

I don't know what's going on between Nova Mobb and KAT. They don't hate each other like Kobe and Shaq, but that relationship is killing the team. I would rather run it back than trade KAT.

It’s just something off about how they play together. It doesn’t seem personal at all.

Complete speculation based on nothing but the times we have seen then spaz on him in public and the subliminals they say in post game interviews all season.

I think they want him to play up to his talent, and when he doesn’t, and it pisses them off. KAT should be demanding the ball. Game 4 against the Celtics was his best game as a Knick when he was just trucking smaller guys. Which also leads to another statement. When teams put a center on Josh and a wing on Towns…. Why doesn’t Towns just truck the wing or post them and then shoot over them? He did that in game 4 against the Celtics and he looked unstoppable. There isn’t a center in the league he shouldn’t be able to take off the dribble either.

It’s like that old Patrice O’Neal joke about Lebron. If Lebron is Superman and a meteor is coming to earth… why the fukk is he looking at Aquaman to save the world? If KAT is the most talented player on the team, why is it he only shows that every couple of games, and not every game?

Plus he isn’t anchoring the defense by communicating what he see’s from the back. Which might just be a BBIQ thing. IDK…
