R.J. Barrett = 22 years young.
Quentin Grimes = 22 years young.
Deuce McBride = 22 years young.
Immanuel Quickley = 23 years young.
Mitchell Robinson = 24 years young.
Jericho Sims = 24 years young.
Obi Toppin = 24 years young.
I'm not willing to support our Front Office trading any of these homegrown Knicks away.
Because it's been really fun this year while watching all 7 develop alongside of one of the NBA's most dynamic/dominant duo's @ PG/PF in Jalen Brunson/Julius Randle (All-Stars X2).
My ultimate (fan goal) is to watch our Front Office trade away the likes of Evan Fournier/Derrick Rose + a lot of our draft capital in order to add fire power to this current roster.
3 Years from today:
R.J. Barrett = 25 years old.
Quentin Grimes = 25 years old.
Deuce McBride = 25 years old.
Immanuel Quickley = 26 years old.
Mitchell Robinson = 27 years old.
Jericho Sims = 27 years old.
Obi Toppin = 27 years old.
Jalen Brunson: 29 years old.
Julius Randle: 31 years old.
Let these young men develop alongside of one another for the next 3+ years, become battle tested throughout the Playoffs together and you never know; we could be looking @ an NBA Championship (winning) Roster (within the makings).

You like just wake up from a coma and feel freaking amazingly good? We beat cleveland and Boston and NYMentality is like freed up and back at it!
Reality is that roster is not going to be glued like that for 3 years.
Not to be negative, but its ok to not know the future and feel optimistic.
I don’t know the path or how this all ends up, I just know starphucking won’t deliver us to the promise land.
Im with you in spirit and root that all our guys do well, have good trade value, and make big bank as they can’t all do it here. In return we have new kids to root for and perhaps even better than the guys that were traded. All the while salary cap goes up and our core on good contracts now keep improving! Mostly good comes from that.

I just can't remember the last time this Franchise has ever featured 7 homegrown Knicks (all getting playing time) while developing alongside of 2 All-Star Caliber leaders (Jalen Brunson/Julius Randle).
It's the type of squad I wanna see develop alongside one another for at least 3 years.
The only way I'd like to see any of them traded away is for an absolute Superstar and let's be honest. It's hard to come by. Because how many teams are (actually) willing to trade away an absolute Superstar (in his prime)?
I just feel like we've finally got our two All-Stars + homegrown talent and would love to see how far these kids can go come postseason play.

He's absolutely fearless which is what I appreciate about him the most and you're right about his DEFENSE; He's becoming a pesky/scrapped Defender and it's been fun to watch.
You get your Internet privileges restored again? Where you been?
LoL na. It's just the booing and the constant dislike of Julius Randle had rubbed me the wrong way (dating back to last year) so this year I've just been reading and not posting and toasting. But the more I've thought about it the more I've realized that me walking away as a poster was stupid of me. I'm finally enjoying this roster (especially) without Evan Fournier and have to realize not every fan will share my same viewpoints nor agree with my opinions.

Then why aren't there more bench players on the list? Like all those 6th men of year guys?

Yeah. I mean. I don't know which teams utilize their 6th men off the bench etc but Immanuel Quickley is more than just a "6th man". He's averaging a career high of 27.4 minutes per game (5th most on the team) and he's flourishing because of it. He's actually averaging 35.5 minutes per game throughout his previous 15 games too. He might not be starting but he's absolutely getting absolute, starter minutes.
1.) Nikola Jokic (+13.2)
2. Joel Embiid (+11.5)
3. Immanuel Quickley (+11)
4. Jrue Holiday (+10.9)
5. Kevin Durant (+10.5)
6. Jayson Tatum (+10.2)
7. Steph Curry (+9.8)
Just to be mentioned alongside of these NBA Stars is not only impressive, but it's jaw dropping (and people thought I was CRAZY last year for feeling as if Immanuel Quickley has Steph Curry impact potential).
Yoooooo!
Who's ready to (2nd half + Playoffs) run it back with our homegrown kids (+ Josh Hart)?!?!?
They all made the trade deadline cut: EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!!!!!
NYmentality is like the intro to home team line up announcements. Dark arena, fireworks, fire, loud music, and yelling!!!!!
2nd half? 26 games left dude!
As for Nets? They are 10 games over .500. I can't fathom they make noise rest of the but when has a team traded two bonafide stars mid season like this? Crazy!
They can run nearly three hockey shifts of NBA talent. No stars, no scrubs. Run out 3 minute shifts of ball to the wall euro league style running and gunning!

You crack me up @ times Nalod you truly are a breath of fresh air don't never change.
I'm just ecstatic none of our homegrown drafted players got traded away (not a single one).
In regards to New Jersey, I mean Brooklyn? They need to be sold to Seattle because they're an embarrassment to NYC basketball. "Super-Team" my ass.
And how do you go from 3 future HOF Players in Kyrie Irving, James Harden and Kevin Durant to now having 0 Star Players? How? And they completely threw away Jarrett Allen for absolutely, nothingness? A beast Center who's now an Eastern Conference 2022 All-Star Center?

I live in the Carolinas. IM from Brooklyn. My family is from Brooklyn. Only time I go is when I drive the Belt Parkway to to get to Long Island if I don't fly up.
Brooklyn Nets are just another franchise in my book. If they were in seattle it would be the same. I don't get why some of you get all worked up about them other than perhaps arguing locally with others about them. NYKM, you in Tampa? Why they in your head?
Me? WE take care of business and thats all that matters.

And for me it's fun to call Brooklyn, New Jersey and it's also funny to know how they've gone from 3 future Hall of Fame players in James Harden, Kyrie Irving and KEVIN DURANT to now having 0 Star Players and a bunch of mediocre role players with damn near 0 homegrown talents.
It's also hysterical for the ESPN/MEDIA talking heads to have disrespected the Knicks and Julius Randle while sucking off "Brooklyn" for their "BIG-3".
All of this is comical to me (as a Knicks fan).
Yeah. Yeah. The ultimate goal is to see our Knicks win an NBA Championship etc but I'm not going to stop having fun until they do so (that eliminates all the fun of it).

I hear you man. The Nets will always be the New Joirseee Nets to me. I have lived in Brooklyn some. But most of my life I have lived in Queens, Woodhaven. I don't remember us having so much homegrown talent on the team ever and I have been a fan for almost 30 years. This is the second most exciting time to be a fan. Those late 90ies still have a special place in my heart. You know what tho? This team has potential and is so much fun to enjoy seeing player growth. Durant and Kyrie can $uck it easy. This year's playoffs I am gonna go nuts, completely nuts. Live games start at like 3:30 am for me and I am gonna watch every single one of them
Another thing haven't we beaten every top team in the league at least once? Maybe with one or two exceptions? Maybe not? It just seems like it

I also live in the Carolinas but I'm from NYC. I have no hate for Brooklyn although those teams with J Kidd, Martin and Jefferson that disrespected us pissed me off at the time. The team we had with Kidd, Rasheed and Melo was one of the most fun seasons that I can remember since Spreewell. I think its pretty hilarious that when we play at Barclay their arena is full of Knicks fans and I have to wonder whatever happened to that billboard the Nets put up across from MSG when they thought they were claiming the City. Some stupid ish on their part but I really can't hate on them.
They have a deep team with guys who play their asses off. I certainly wouldn't look past them as they might beat us on any given night. I guess we'll find out what they got on Monday when we play them. We are going to have to bring the effort and defense if we want to win that game.

I mean as of right now we've got the 10th best overall within the entire NBA.
Let's see how we've done against the Top 9...
#1.) Boston Celtics = 1-1.
#2.) Milwaukee Bucks = 0-3.
#3.) Denver Nuggets = 1-0.
#4.) Philadelphia 76ers = 2-1.
#5.) Cleveland Cavaliers = 2-1.
#6.) Memphis Grizzlies = 0-2 (OT loss + 4 point loss).
#7.) New Jersey Nets = 0-2.
#8.) Sacramento Kings = 1-0.
#9.) Miami Heat = 1-0.
8-10 overall against the Top-9 and only Milwaukee/Memphis/Nets have really had our number.
Don't look now but we've still got plenty of time to catch both Philadelphia/Cleveland for a top 4/5 NBA Record.
Pretty exciting for a team as extremely young as our 2022-2023 Knicks because I've never experienced a Knicks team this young but yet already this strong.
And I highly doubt any of the teams ahead of us have been forced to play as many games without their Starting Center (Mitchell Robinson).
I appreciate the sheer # of homegrown players we have right now. It's great watching your players develop - though it's been nerve-wracking for years since we've had a coaching carousel for the much of the last 2 decades, that is, until Thibs joined.
But you only have like 3 years with them before you need to make choices about who's going to get paid the big bucks.
Looking to next season, there are some interesting choices to be made regarding Quickley and Obi.
Quickley: I think he's shown enough that another team *could* offer him something along the lines of a $25-30m deal. (Think somewhere along the lines of Brunson/Poole/Herro/RJ/Simons) Given his current production, it seems like a lot, but other teams may see Brunson-like potential waiting to be unlocked in the right role. Right now Quickley is a bit riskier than all of those players I listed - he hasn't produced tangible numbers like them. His magic is his advanced stats that say his team is elite when he's on the floor and isn't when he's not. If Quickley wants to maximize his money and his potential, he probably should leave - but he's a welcome contributor on our team.
Obi: I think the Knicks like him, but a fact of life is that he's on the same team as an all-NBA player at the same position and doesn't have the versatility to swing to center or SF. He's a bit of luxury insurance in the event Randle gets hurt - but he's been a rock! He's shown enough with extended minutes that another team could offer him $10-15m on the open market (think Bobby Portis's Knick contract; Marvin Bagley), perhaps going for $20m (Aaron Gordon) if he ever gets the opportunity to showcase himself. I don't think Obi is worth that as mere injury insurance.
In any case, we still have both of them for cheap until the end of next season. Let's see where things shake out.
It's just awesome knowing how these kids (outside of Deuce/Sims) are all gaining much needed postseason experience right now.
Combined with the likes of...
Julius Randle.
Jalen Brunson.
Josh Hart.
Isiah Hartenstein.
And this core group of New York Knicks = TRUE NBA CONTENDERS for the next 5+ years (moving forward) including CURRENTLY.
