"Who are the Knicks? Brunson, Brunson and some other Knickas" " - Official '23 NYK Offseason Thread

[Knicksman20]

What I will say about this team… we are building in a traditional way. This is how teams used to progress. You make the playoffs and lose in the first round. You make some roster adjustments, grow and get to the next round (typically the next year). There’s still a very real world where we just improve the bench and are a team that can compete for the conference championship next season. Just projecting, it’s extremely possible we’re going into the next season at minimum the third best team in the East depending on how much Miami cares about the regular season. Boston should be back on top too. But Milwaukee could take a step back and Philly definitely will. Barring any big moves, our only comp for third in the East is Cleveland.

Totally agree. I just hope Randle isn't a part of this because I hate his attitude & energy. He & Thibs aren't a good combo for this team if we're going to take the next step in being an elite team

He’s as good as Donovan Mitchell and for a whole summer everyone thought he was good enough to be the 1A.

i think we’re learning now that Mitchell isn’t one of THOSE guys though. And frankly, it’s due to size. Elite wings will always be greater than elite guards. (Steph aside of course).

Send Julius Randle to Shenzhen.

If they don't get the pick I bet they trade it. For a protected pick the Mavs being a mess will have team's give that pick more value.

All these available coaches and I don’t think I’d fire Thibs for any of them aside from Nurse. If he put it out there he was interested in coaching the Knicks would you fire Thibs? Do you think the FO would?

I'd fire Thibs for Whoopi Goldberg at this point.

No, the coaching retreads have to stop man lol. If Thibs ain't it, let Johnnie Bryant step up.

Nurse isn’t really a retread per se though… this would be his second job.

Julius Randle ain’t playing for no woman coach

Moving on from Thibs wouldn’t be the worst thing., his rotations were terrible during the second half of the season and playoffs.

Not that sims would be a turning point but damn put a big body on Bam to control the fukking bleeding .

I’m way more concerned about the unimaginative offense.

There is no reason to move on from Thibs.

Good. Steal Coach Becky from Vegas and have him demand a trade
