Hey Phil man what's up with you my dude?

Our JetNation owner (MAX) just informed us through IP address that you've changed your JN name of Philc1 to "AlbanianJet" and I didn't want to believe it man because AlbanianJet has not only been talking bad about our Knicks but also talking up the Brooklyn Nets over there with posts such as....

AlbanianJet; "Not sure why you guys still root for the Knicks. The Nets are better and have a really likeable team and built the old fashioned way.

And I didn't want to believe it because ever since June we've all been worried about you the real Philc1 and many of us longtime JN posters have been asking moderators if you're ok and if they've heard anything about you? And come to find out you've been AlbanianJet the entire time? That's disheartening man.

I didn't want to believe it but now I know AlbanianJet has been you this entire time and not only because did I just realize AlbanianJet created his account in early June (same exact time you vanished and disappeared out of nowhere) but AlbanianJet has only made 1 positive post about NYK and it's verbatim to your introduction here on UK...

AlbanianJet: 'Grimes DOMINATING the NBA draft combine scrimmages"

So in other words AlbanianJet said verbatim on JN what Philc1 said on UK...

I still love you my dude I'm just disappointed because many of us longtime JN posters have legit been worries about you thinking you got sick or a car accident I was so thankful to see you posting here on UK last night and now I find out you're AlbanianJet? That's just disheartening on a humanity level.

This online world is freaking crazy man. More crazy than the real world. But yeah at least we all know you're now o.k because we're a small group of Knicks fans over there (15-20 of us) and we were all questioning/wondering what happened to you because it made no sense how you posted about our Knicks almost every day throughout all of 2020-2021 but them completely disappeared and vanished right before the playoffs.

Well it's good to see the real Philc1 is ok, healthy and alive here on UK because you're one of my favorites over the years just please keep "AlbanianJet" away from UK because I don't like that person dude 😅😠😂

Jets got a shot to decent this year. I’m not a Wilson lover like the mods at JI which is why I got banned they want a cheerleader section over there. Jets got a very good offensive line, my man Quinen Williams who I got roasted for rooting for looks like a future all pro, finally got decent WRs and I like Saleh as a coach

Problem is their secondary is God awful trash. Teams are going to score on us at will

Btw Spermedwards guy Justin Fields looks trash in Bears camp

I still got mad love for you Phil but just wondering why you're over there crapping on Knicks fans and asking us why we're still Knicks fans and not fans of Brooklyn? I'll always respect you my dude but it's disappointing.

Grimes is more talented than Bullock. Grimes can create his own shot and shoots it better off the bounce. Grimes is also a better rebounder and playmaker than Bullock...

Agreed

Btw Grimes and Bullock share the same agent so I guess Bullock is coming back for another yr

There can only be one.

I do hope we bring Bullock back as Grimes may need some time to develop... and what will that look like - Allan Houston or Aaron Afflalo?

I was joking around bro and it was one post

Full disclosure I rooted for the nets in the early 2000’s when Layden and Isiah were obviously running the organization into the ground and that was actually a likable team with Kidd, Jefferson and Kmart. These current nets are a bunch of spoiled rotten divas who embody everything wrong with today’s nba

I don't mind bringing Bullock back but ideally he is the first wing off the bench. We need a higher quality starting SF. I know he has had some injury probelms but if we are unable to land a star I would overpay Otto Porter on a 1 year deal. Knicks lack length on the wing.

Here is longer video of his play at the NBA combine. He was the best player and it was not even close.

This is the best highlight of him I have seen yet. The best part is like near half of the highlights is his defense.

And he wrecked it in multiple games facing different lineups of players most of whom were drafted ahead of him

I’m in love

Melo is way too slow to guard wings now but the rationale for bringing him back may be he’s a way better shooter and shot creator than Bullock and can generate offense at the 3 spot especially in games in which we are down and need an offensive spark

Not saying I agree with the plan but maybe that’s why Rose is going after Melo aside from CAA politics

I can't put my finger on who this kid reminds me of on offense but on DEFENSE he reminds me so much of a younger Ron Artest. His Defense is absolutely disgusting.

He reminds me a little of Josh Hart when he dominated pre-draft and summer league a few years ago. That level of role player i'm hoping for.

I hope not man I swear everyone is player comping Grimes to Hart but I really hope not 4 years later and he's still not an impactful NBA player.

Hart plateaued a bit but he’s a solid role player and glue guy. Shooting held him back. Assuming Grimes develops and becomes an above average shooter than he should be better.

Grimes reminds me of a more skilled Dotson. He's got the pieces, lets see if he's got it between the ears. Everything looks good about him and it surely looks like we got mid-first round talent in Grimes/McBride because of such a deep draft.

I really have high expectations for these guys.

YES

While Obi struggled he got better and never stopped working and the staff loved him. IQ was a revelation. We looked at a LOT of guys. Thibs and everyone in the FO looked at all these guys and talked to all these guys. Based on our first draft under Leon and our COY saying "I like these guys" I am really excited to see what Grimes/McBride can do. They both really play with fire and a chip on their shoulder. I love the fire you know they will inject into practice when coach says "go be you"
