And looks like he is 32, not 22.

Yeah, but Isiah the traitor is technically Blackenstein.
If he hadnt gone to a contender, Id agree. But he got paid big time, and is part of one of the best teams in the West. Cant blame him for that.
I don't want to make excuses for him. Whatever the reason, he left with his hot wife to go to plays for some rubes in the Midwest. He's dead to me... I don't really mean that, but he's still the ops.
Who?
Who is this?
Yea Hukporti looks like a legit reserve Center. Big body soft touch pretty mobile pretty smart player. Just a sound Center whereas Sims is more of an athlete playing basketball.
Kolek is playing great but so is Cam. Hard to not give the vet the backup PG spot. Would be cool to find a way to get them all mins. If Brunson goes down then Kolek becomes a huge piece for his playmaking though.

If that’s short for the Incredible Huk, I love it.
I haven’t watched the game yet. How was the defence? Was KAT as big a liability as some were crying about👀

The one thing I loved about him is how he sets a pick and then re-sets it and adjusts it again with movement. Just like iHart.

I mean, we played the Wizards. Can't tell much from playing them. All the rooks looked good except for Pacome. I guess he had a finger injury of some sort.

He knows the drill! Dunk and then dunk harder!
Eventually Knicks will have both Beast Mitch and iHuk and smashmouth 90's basketball will be back and their buddies OG, Mikal, Deuce, Josh will do their side kick acts.

remember Huk was coming off a bad injury when we drafted him (torn achillies I believe) but was regarded as a top shelf athlete, a bit unpolished but not unskilled. Obviously there's a lot of work here but he's huge and moves really well.
Have not seen much of our French Wing but Kolek and Hukporti look great. Maybe getting a head of myself but give them the McBride run in the Gleague and I feel like we might have contributors come spring. Regardless its great cause you can really see their upside.

That's the other oooooooh ahhhhhhh aspect to this roster. We can go "small" with Josh on wing and Kat at the 5 or big with Mitch/Huk at the 5 and Kat at the 4

Hukporti has been playing basketball professionally since he was 16 and it shows
Big Mermaid, Hulkporti, Huk Tuah.....the choices are fantastic

Kolek in the G League is gonna be like 30pts 15 asts per night. He's a rookie and there's work to do, but he's too good for the GLeague I think. Its preseason, but I didn't expect Kolek to be such a smooth/confident scorer. He was getting the basket nearly at well and we saw his pull up game from 3 in Game 1. 26 pts in 31 mins
Kolek and Hukporti were really solid last night. Might be 2 future rotation players.
