It feels like everyone goes to the gleague and puts up insane numbers.

Well, in those clips he did some things I've never seen him do before so maybe that how's you find your new gear

Yep, it’s a solid step and sometimes an indicator

Actually I respectfully disagree, everything he did in this video is well within his normal repertoir and game. Hes been doing this since he was 16/17 on a pro level in Germany, Australia etc. For him the thing is confidence, playing time and chemistry with his PGs. Hes good, not 20/10 good but hes serviceable on an NBA level as a 2nd, 3rd big off the bench... his "problem" is that the Knicks have probably the best 1-2 punch a C with KAT and Mitch...

Huk legit doesn’t even look at the basket in nba games. He has no interest in trying to finish plays or being active outside of being a screener. There’s going to be so many players available in the draft that give more than that at the center position. I’d keep him around as a 2-way guy but I’m probably not offering him a spot on the main roster.

Uhhh Huk played 38 minutes, scored 32, 4-6 from downtown, 13-23 overall, 10 rebounds, 5 blocks

Huk needs to remove the chastity belt when he gets called back up to the big leagues, spread his legs and put out with some of that good lovin when it counts most

I think the expression you are looking for is: remove the chastity belt, make sure the strap-on is locked and loaded, and get to work.

I think it was in a Vogue magazine article or something

Vogue? You were definitely reading that one for the articles. 🥱

Martin is an avid reader, but he admittedly enjoys sniffing the perfume ads too

It’s something to work with and build off of

I was probably too hasty with Huk. I liked him plenty before and felt his development had stalled, but he is making strides after all. He doesn't play enough in the rotation to properly evaluate him this season.

Feel like the Knicks FO or whatnot has a pretty good feel for the young guys, and given the playoff team they got and the chase they going thru, they know they got a bit of time to really marinate a few of the young guys. They do lack for a few specific skill sets like ball handling and distribution and thus Mo, but they are definitely training decently as far as any of us can really tell.

Yes, I think so too. Piggybacking my response to you in the game thread, I think the FO has been really good at drafting overlooked talent and bringing them along. It seems they did replace Thibs with another coach in part to have deeper rotations this year to get extra playing time for the developing players. This is key for a FO that may need to move a max or near max player at some point and they want affordable depth in the pipeline for that reason among others. Diawara is a prime example. I strongly doubt he'd have gotten much opportunity under Thibs this year like Brown has given Mo. Small differences in management style accrue over time.

Per Huk, he may be in the mix next year along with Mo and that would be due to the FO's vision for sure.

Sometimes you have to give players time on the court to "get ready" so to speak and not just practice sessions and G League minutes. That means allowing for mistakes, but also giving them a taste of the speed of the NBA game so they can internalize that into their own maturation process. I think mostly Brown has done that in appropriate doses for a guy like Diawara even if I'm not particularly stoked about Kolek riding the bench for Jose at the moment.
