Advanced stats mean nothing to me, bc Obi has a higher eFG than both of them

You keep missing the more important point about KAT lol

Again, I like RJ, but the quant/qual says it was the right move. Gave up a lot though.

I’m just comparing RJ and Bridges. I’m aware that the cap wouldn’t have worked to land KAT.
 
O ******* G. I’m so glad I was wrong about him. I didn’t get the trade at first and didn’t think he had that much value. But god damn man. What a beast.

Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns have no connection to RJ Barrett. The reason RJ isn't on the roster is that Leon Rose believed OG Anunoby was the better option. So far, OG has proven to be more consistent, efficient, and a stronger defender. Mikal was brought in as a two-way player who can defend and stretch the floor with his three-point shooting. It came at a cost, but that’s the price of making impactful moves.

As for Randle, while I respected his contributions and rooted for him, his attitude, selfish tendencies, and lack of defensive effort made it clear that a change was necessary. His inability to adapt when things weren’t going his way hurt the team. Moving on from him and bringing in KAT was a significant upgrade. Ultimately, turning RJ into OG and Randle into KAT feels like a win and a big step forward for the team.
 
Knicks are letting the lite skinned q-tip run wild again. If I see another shot clock violation, I’m about to go on a raw dog marathon on Roosevelt Ave.
 
The **** happened this game. We looked elite in the first half and couldn’t make a single shot in the second half

Didn't pounce offensively in that first 5 minutes of the game. Hawks were ice ****in cold. They started like 1-11 and we were only up 6. Should've been a 15 point lead to end that first quarter with how bad the Hawks were that quarter but we let them hang around way too long. Bit us in the *** when we had an ice cold third quarter


Oh, and other than KAT, nobody can consistently rebound worth a damn
 
This loss might be our worst of the year.

We didn’t do any of the little things in the second half.

We made too many turnovers, missed too many open shots, and didn’t defend consistently well.

We can be dominant for stretches on d and then disappear for the rest of the game. We need consistency.

Towns, OG and Hart are the only ones consistently playing with tenacity and fire. Brunson did his thing trying to create for others despite not making shots, but no one else could score either. Disappointing.
 
How was Bridges ever a number one option in Brooklyn? He has no dog in him, doesn’t attack the rim ever, is too passive.
 
I will say I partially blame the refs. They let the game get away for a solid 3-4 minutes by calling nothing and it got into the Knicks heads.
