Official NY Knicks 2021 preseason

[ballinsam23]

Not having Elf automatically adds 5 wins to this team so we should be straight.

Plus if Mitch stays healthy we a 60 win team **** it.

Moves are all fine, no one was available. I like what we did. Don’t really like Fournier as a player but we badly need more scorers so he fits the bill. Really like having Noel and Burke back.

No way Reggie is available after summer league with how he played after Kawhi got hurt. Dude was an automatic 20+ almost every game. I'm okay with the young guys getting burn at PG as long as the fan base accepts a mediocre season of rebuilding/growth. You're not making ANY noise in the playoffs with your primary playmakers being Rose and IQ

im not saying that that’s what I want to happen, but it seems like that may be the play or we would have someone in by now

That’s true Rose and IQ are the guys you want behind the primary guys at this point, but who’s out there…. This was more of a bide our time and keep the ship together off-season. We are still a couple years away fellas.

Is it safe to say we don’t like Fournier because he’s French?

 

[Upptempo]

I'm guessing the Knicks wanna give Randle one more season to do his thing. If he struggles late season again I'm assuming they let him walk and try to bring in someone next offseason to be the main guy, whether through trade or free agency

I don’t like him because he’s pretty one dimensional, just a shooter/scorer and he was highly inconsistent at that when Boston needed him in the playoffs. But like I said that’s one dimension we need so whatever.

 

[ballinsam23]

If Randle focuses his entire off season on learning to operate from the right side of the court we'll be fine.

Teams know how to play him now.

Berman gotta be lying, right?!?

Marc Berman (@NYPost_Berman) Tweeted:
Don't know if there is any real interest as fallback but I do know Knicks called their starting point guard Elfrid Payton when free agency opened last night. Dennis Schroder, Reggie Jackson still on PG board.

If they bring back Elf

 

[Mister Meaner]

They really goofed not drafting Haliburton. He’s ROY with that media hype train and a playoff run. More importantly, they’re not in this predicament right now.

Again.

Which is why I have decided to place my faith in Deuce. I think he’s got the tools to be a problem. Deficiencies can be worked out with good coaching. He also plays with a chip on his shoulder & it shows.

 

[naijaboy]

If they bring back Elf

He got to be trolling for engagement cause he knows elf is polarizing.

How is Fournier on defense ?

 

[biggie62]

How is Fournier on defense ?

He tries somewhat. He’s just not a dawg and somewhat slow laterally. But effort is 80-% of all defense really

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Berman is such a damn liar man

 

[nick.]

I'm really tryna see what we have with our guards in summer league. I know it's SL and stats don't matter, but you can tell if a player belongs or not.

Every PG on our roster outside of Rose is on that team. IQ, Luca, Rokas, Miles.

I'll never forget being hyped for Chasson Randle then watching him struggle to cross halfcourt off the inbound

 

[Upptempo]

I'd rather we sign Frank to a max than sign Elfrid to a minimum

 

[ballinsam23]

I'm boycotting the season if they resign Elf

 

[tramericanjr]

Payton might play for 3s company next year

 

[Upptempo]

I'd bring back Toney Douglass before L-Fred

 

[donewithjs]

Berman really got me shook right now.

I’d rather bring back Chris Smith than Elf
