Official NY Knicks 2021 preseason

Also to all these Sexton defenders who are saying “losing takes a toll on you, and he was on a bad team so he can get better”.

I want that same energy for Knox and Frank

Knox and Frank got 0 burn on a 4th seed team. Rookie Quickley who shot 39% from the field got more playing time than they both did combined.

 

[donewithjs]

maybe the open man or Garland who is a better player than him.

He shot 47% as a “ball hog” that’s pretty impressive if the other team knows you’re not going to pass and only have to “guard” him.

Knox and Frank were on a good team this year with the COY and didn’t progress.

 

[Upptempo]

Colin Sexton as a rookie: 16/3/3 on 43% from the field/40% from 3

Quickley as a rookie: 11/2/2 on 39% from the field, 39% from 3

And we're thrilled to watch him grow and most feel he has the potential to be an offensive beast in the league. If Quick was putting up 16ppg this season we'd be ecstatic

true, He averaged 24ppg on 47% FG. 80%+ FT & 4.5 assist with no one to pass to and defense was focused on him. And he’s a pesty defender. May not be a bad trade at all actually.

He’ll be with a better coaching staff/ team and familiarity with Leon Rose

 

[Mister Meaner]

This year should largely be thrown out for both Bambi & Frank. They had such short leashes under Thibbs. Its for the best in the long run, but they were basically the real rookies of last year. And you see how little room Obi had to work with.


But Bambi & Frank are not Collin Sexton in the City. And thus don’t get the same energy.

Yea, I’d rather wait for Shai to get done with OKC, but I wouldn’t be hurt with Collin.

I mean how impressive is it really when the Cavs have been bad the entire time he shot that percentage?

He played over 50 games with Garland though

That’s not solely on him the Cavs playing bad and it’s really impressive supposedly if the other team know you aren’t going to pass and you have a team of castaways and Garland. Wouldn’t you think his shooting percentage would be lower like Kemba, Hield or even Westbrook’s.

Wait. That boy still on a rookie contract huh? Get him for cheap.
Thibs probably can get him in the right space mentally

 

[ballinsam23]

Luca looked meh against team USA. His role on this team is straight up to be a shooter.

That’s what’s interesting to me. If you move for him and plan to lock him up longterm, we got a limited time to spend that $50 mil or so in cap before we’d use his bird rights to exceed the cap.

Interesting play if that’s what they’re thinking.

He looked doodoo for a lot of these games.

 

[donewithjs]

Luca is the G-League bench player version of Jason Williams. He about to be our new Frank with the same cult following.

 

[8pm at msg]

Most of Sexton's issues seem to be personality related, defense aside.

I think Thibs could sit him down and get him on the right track, learn what real defense is and with a team like this that seems to sincerely enjoy each others company, get him to fit in.

 

[floodarea]

Thibs is either the absolute best coach for Sexton or the absolute worst

it’s a coin flip really

The only players that I can remember out in the open that didn’t like Thibs was soft *** KAT and Wiggins.

 

[ballinsam23]

I mean we definitely need a scorer and I 100% believe in the NBA you’re a product of your environment.

Just not at that price. Idk…if it happens hed have to win me over.

 

[ballinsam23]

He looked doodoo for a lot of these games.

Slow, ok handle, makes the right pass, can shoot. Idk if he'll start but he'll get playing time.

 

[biggie62]

He looks like he can be a fine role player at the least.

As long as he don’t bump Theo off that bench.

 

[8pm at msg]

Spacing would improve in the NBA and his shot looks pretty legit.

I've searched Yelp, Twitter, Snapchat, asked around friends and family circles--no Dice.

NT Knicks fam, ya'll my last hope. I desperately need your help:

Does anyone know someone who can braid straight hair? The girl I know went back to DR since COVID and hasn't come back. I fear she was living here illegally and now cannot reenter the USA.

This is a plea from a desperate man. Managed to grow out my hair since covid and it's now long enough. Had shorty do an amateur job, which was so bad, but I need the real deal.

What other guards are available?
