What? He’s played well every game.

I don't give a ****.

This is why we lose.

Y'all stay getting hoodwinked.

Guess I gotta wait for y'all to see the light.

 

[ballinsam23]

Trade him for who though? His value is still low.

He looks to be wayyy more comfortable out there as a #2 option.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Great ******* win. Orlando ain’t a bunch of scrubs. They’re just getting their feet wet really.

Need more Obi with the starters to inject some early life. Take some pressure off RJ to start out gunning also.

Almost don’t wanna trade him tho [Randle] seeing as he went thru the highs and lows of NYC already. He asked for it ofc but everyone loves a redemption story.

Can he keep his head for the whole year while passing the torch? Can he & Obi coexist?

Starting to think maybe. Look how he’s shining with a real pg.

 

[Hahahaha]

Get this ***** Randle the **** outta here.

Always on board with this and add Fournier

What? He’s played well every game.

It’s been three games and I don’t think the selfless game will last with him.

Trade?

Cant we just cut him at this point?

Trade him for a chopped cheese for all I care.

3rd game in, but still not sure how obi toppin is getting no more than 13/14 minutes like last night
man's a spark and good for some quick, easy buckets.
a player like quickley getting more minutes despite not being able to make a basket is making me think obi is continuing to get shut out. he's good for at least 25 mins/game

 

[njavier03]

While I agree that Obi needs more minutes, he’s too small to play the 5. Randle is actually playing well, so I don’t see his minutes getting taken. MAYBE play some minutes alongside Randle? But I don’t think that’ll work.

[njavier03]

Should be 3 in a row tonight

 

[harlemtothebronx]

NTs very own.

 

[floodarea]

picked up quickley’s fourth year option

 

[njavier03]

not a fan, but at $4mil...eh at least gives him a chance to show us something

 

[Mister Meaner]

Happy for DSJ but tonite someone gotta humble that young man.

And Knicks culture now is serious. Not expecting them to play down to comp anymore. They beat the teams they’re supposed to.

Spoiler

Give Cam 30ish games to show he can stay healthy and then make a move on Evan. The whole point is to pair RJ with someone even better equipped to take on the lead wing/guard defensively.

Randle is looking even better than his MIP self in this small sample size. I haven’t seen 1 forced shot and he looks like a good teammate thus far. It doesn’t make sense to trade him now.

Evan & Immanuel for a future first .

i mean he is guarding the other teams best wing every night...

 

[don ramon]

celtics reporter. f that guy

 

[ballinsam23]

He's 22 years old. At that age, that's a stretch. Plus he was never an efficient offensive player.

 

[paulminus]

This most likely mean Grimes will end up starting at the 2 and RJ at 3?

 

[Air Pope]

Literally this.

 

[njavier03]

i dont think they're saying that JB is a bad defender, but he does have his deficiencies. he's small. RJ shouldn't have to be guarding the much quicker Ja. should be PG on PG, ideally. do i think him having to guard the best wing every night contribute to his efficiency? a little. i'm not saying he'd have a 50% fg percentage, but its easier to score if you're not gassed.

 

[ballinsam23]

Becca is glowing after giving birth

 

[don ramon]

should be an easy win, right?
dennis smith jr legacy game

 

[floodarea]

love seeing rj hitting his first off dribble jumper
