Official '24 NYK off-season thread; Give them a standing ovation

[Wargames]

obi didn't have to do that.
he should get a tech lol

He absolutely had to do that… if just for the LJ “calm down” gestures right after.

 

[don ramon]

sick shot

everyone is playing well
cam will catch up if he's given minutes

 

[floodarea]

CUT JULIUS RANDLE RIGHT NOW

he is no longer needed

 

[dmvisrnb]

Obi Obi Obi

 

[Mister Meaner]

I would like Randle and Quick to play great ball. They can make for a lucrative trade going together or separately.

 

[don ramon]

so relieved obi didn't get traded.
full repertoire tonight
he's gonna be a big boost this season

 

[donewithjs]

Julius gotta be gone by the trade line if Obis even slightly improved from last year.

 

[big j 33]

Obi has grown on me.

I still don't like the pick, but I like him.

Also, I didn't see that there was a new thread since I don't really browse the forums. Just my watch list and I was like where the hell are the Knicks

 

[Mister Meaner]

Why not throw Obi out there with Julius to start next preseason game. Let Cam come off the bench. I missed the end but I hope he didn’t get hurt. He looks pressed.

I don’t worry about QG. Evan can go eat a baguette somewhere.

 

[njavier03]

Bruh y’all giving Cam almost as many chances at Frank. Dude just ain’t it. Another player with all the potential, but couldn’t put it together.

 

[Air Pope]

Obi’s game is coming along great … really hope to see more of this

 

[you go boy]

never liked obi as our draft pick... wanted haliburton instead... but after having obi here been rooting for him since his rookie year... always knew he had potential but just needed playing time

 

[ballinsam23]

I’m starting to think if Kevin Knox had the same minutes as Cam he’d produce the exact same amount.

 

[big j 33]

Kevin Knox ended up a solid starter in a 2k franchise I had one time

 

[njavier03]

I’m starting to think if Kevin Knox had the same minutes as Cam he’d produce the exact same amount.

They’re almost the same player. Same size, same fluidity, same lack of determination.

 

[Mister Meaner]

****

As for the Cam discussion, comparing 4 years of disappointment to less than a full szn of team footage are indeed close to being the same thing/S

Cant speak for anyone else but his HS mixtape is top tier entertainment. And if nothing else, one would figure he could be an elite 3&D player with the tools.

Can’t find out if he’s a dawg tho cuz he can’t stay on the court. In that regard, he’s worse than that French waste of a roster spot.

 

[olx9o]

No matter the time of the year.
Win or Lose.
Knicks have the most lit games in the NBA.

 

[8pm at msg]

Cam's problem seems to be he has no real feel for the game. He's not the best athlete either.

 

[itshlittt]

Chill Knox had bricks for feet.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Undisciplined in his defense. Many other things aided his failure but the dawg in him seems toy breed.

Unlike Deuce who plays bigger than he is. And is being set up for a very good career.

Here in 2022, the solution to the szns min distribution. Sit Evan & Cam. Play RJ, Obi & Randle more at the same time. Grimes should still be getting eased into this. With that compromise, I can take another full yr of this Randle love/hate relationship.

Shine him up real nice.

 

[Mister Meaner]

I know he just had his ankle rolled after stepping on someone else foot but hopefully it ain’t serious.

Who mentioned bringing back KP? If he’s gotten over his injury issues & is ready for a bench role, sign me up for that reunion.

Get him to really just be the defensive anchor on the bench and c&s for the easy scoring. Mitch may improve his capability but he’s no unicorn.

Hart be looking like he struggling but he gives maximum effort. His true lack of athleticism has him hacking and whacking all over the place.

 

[njavier03]

You can’t honestly think that KP would come off the bench and isn’t a starter

 

[Mister Meaner]

 

[paulminus]

..
Would you do Randle for KP ?

Mitch / KP / RJ / Grimes / Brunson ???

Feels like my attitude towards Randle changes day to day but 1 think that is consistent is that Obi is better.

So yes to the trade but not if it costs a spot for Obi.
