Too many words.

So far he is saying everything I like to hear.

It's like books these days, and all the reading you have to do. Why can't it read itself to me?

Like I said before, everything I see about this guy I love. What you say and what you do are two different thing but we have not got to the do part yet so right now I love everything.

Music to my ears but that is easier said than done. How are you going to get the space needed to do this? That means Hart can't start and shooting must be valued highly or teams will just pack the paint and live with us shooting 3's again.

I thought knicks handled and have been doing well to respect Thibs with grace while excited about the changes to coaching staff.

Bro looks like me trying to run, only much much better

I think you'd turn into Usain Bolt if there was an edible on the other side of that hoop.

Any video of Pacome at camp ?

Good for him. I expect he’ll have a better year with more playing time.

Him and iHart were fun to watch.

I'll always root for that man. Yes, his basketball IQ is trash, if existent at all. And,yes, he should be much better than he is, based on his god given talent. But his effort is infectious and he was responsible for some of the team's most memorable highlights of the year. And his clutch was is underrated. I hope Spo whips him into shape.

Yeah I have a special place in my heart for him. I will always root for him to do well... except against us of course.

Sorry to see Precious go. Hope he thrives in Miami, except against us.

Nice listen

Always wary when I hear Knicks are going to run and gun and ball is going to fly around for knock down 3’s.

Our 2 best players are slow footed - Jalen has mostly excelled at an elite level off the dribble and often after pounding rock for 4-8 seconds.
Kat has a lightening trigger but thought of Kat racing up the floor makes me think about a few things - he’s going to pull something, he’s going to crash to floor after fast break drive and he’s going to rest on D. Can’t expect Kat to improve significantly on D and be running the floor hard all night.

With Brown calling for wings to race to the corners I wonder if defensive glass will be an issue.

Also - with either Josh or Mitch we are a clunky ball handling passing starting 5 lots of poor passing.

Insert Deuce and yes the run/space works but we going to have trouble on boards and Kat may be in early foul trouble.

Wish we had a legit 4th choice as #5 player in starting group - a solid shooter, defender with more size than Deuce.

Slim JB. Negatives?

Probably should take less charges without those pillows to protect him.

Guess it depends on whether he’s been able to maintain or increase his strength.

If weight loss has sapped strength you could see him struggle more to create space in the paint BUT in theory he would be quicker with his footwork.

I always felt hoops was best played as light a weight as possible without strength loss.

I’m finding it difficult to believe we are a championship level defensive squad.

Without bigger defensive 2 guard and another long wing defender—- very difficult to hide Kat/Jalen.

Don’t trust Hart to guard either or Mitch to stay healthy long term without both getting heavy rest all year.

IMO Knicks need to be a top 10 level defensive team to get to a championship level squad. OG Mikal Mitchell Deuce is a pretty good foundation for that.

Knicks should also be a top 5 offense.

I think those 2 things will get them in the championship level squad picture.

Watching games on League Pass (a questionable value) this morning, and listening to Breen and Clyde and the sounds of the arena is like medicine for the soul.
