BAD MOVE BY THE KNICKS!! OBI IS GOING TO BE SPECIAL!! But Obi you will finally get a chance to play! Especially since Thibbs didn't want to give you significant minutes!!
I don't have a problem trading Obi but you suppose to trade up. Trade for an upgrade. Package him in an upgrade. This trade does not make us better. Teams already told us they don't value our protected first. they certainly won't value 2nds very high
F you Knicks f you begley I’m done w Knicks for 2nd rounder I’m done w Knicks 100%
I’m getting front row seats when Indy plays us
I wanna see Obi vs Randle live and DIRECT
Knicks are crazy
excellent move, and now all the obi fan boys can cry.
Sad to see Obi traded, but he should flourish with the Pacers, he'll no doubt make us pay, when we play them, God Speed bro, wishing nothing but the best!
I kind of knew it was gonna be 2nd round picks…. Same market at Rui Hachimura… Now go and pick up KJ Martin from Houston… Loved Obi's class and demeanor thru all of this but I'm not getting ready to jump out a window because of this deal…His production can easily be replaced…
For all this, they should have drafted Hali instead! Thibs is a dinosaur😕
Love this for the Knicks. Getting rid of dead weight to be honest. Other than in transition and energy off the bench, Obi doesnt bring anything to the table. No dribble drive game, cant create shots for himself, and a below average rebounder and defender. This idea he is a star in the making is a farce. We were lucky to get anything for him for he has no value.
Mathurin, Haliburton, Obi. Thats definitely a team I would pay to see… management is looking really suspect right now… Counting on Thibs and Julius? Brunson deserves better…
Indiana team looking better. Robbed Knicks with no gun for two trash picks ….
The knicks would chose Randle over Obi.
Knicks trade obi for 2 box of crackers
If we had a COACH who knew how to rest Randle and let obi play, we'd be ok. Thibodeau dont play anybody except starters all year…and Quickley
Obi will be an all-star this year. No doubts.
Such a disrespectful move
Thibs wanted him gone… didn't want to sit Randle. The Knicks will regret this trade.
Bad move
We should’ve traded Randle 🙄
This is still 😅Randle team ridiculous he can’t produce in the playoffs
STOP CRYING NY FANS born and raised calm down he wasn't getting playing time so they traded him y'all should be happy for the man it's not the end of the world
I'm heated that we traded Obi. Obi is Waaaay better than Randle. They gave up on the wrong player. Obi is better than Randle in everything – except a little defense. I'm going to miss Obi Toppin. I'm sure I speak for a lot of Knicks fans?!!
Good analysis
Another salary dump. The CBA pushing more salary basedtrades.
I'm glad we got some athleticism
So the Knicks coaching staff couldn't figure out how to use a young player with a great potential hey all you had to do is watch his college highlights they used Obi wrong and less I wish him well and yes I hope he torches the Knicks every time he plays them.
Very disappointing that we have nothing back in return but i understand it was a salary dump . Go shine Obi
Bro, for real though? Other teams made moves. Where are the moves from the Knicks?🤔🙄
Good luck Obadaiah Toppin! YOU WILL DEFINITELY BE MISSED! You will be the Superstar that I envisioned you being here in NEW YORK! This is what I wanted for you Obadaiah! Mainly because your former Coach is a Scarecrow with TIN MAN TENDENCIES! You do not have to take a back seat to a Bum named Julius Randall anymore! Praise GOD ALMIGHTY!
Just like a retarded organization with anti black tendencies you idiots gave Obadaiah Toppin away for practically nothing! Yet Obi gave NEW YORK A LOT MORE THAN THAT BULL FECAL MATTER!
I Can see that Pod cast now COOKING WITH INTENSE CONVERSATIONS, WHILE ROASTING THE KNICKS ON AN OPEN FIRE OF COURSE! IAN BEGLET MOVE OVER! MAKE SOME ROOM! THE TRENCH COAT MAFIA GORRILLAS ARE ABOUT TO ENTER THE ROOM!
The Knicks management and Head coach are embarrassing. So watch Obi become a star with Indiana.SMH
This is a terrible trade, we basically helped Indiana. We gave him away for absolutely nothing…smh.. This is going to be Jalen Brunson karma when he turns into an all star
Thibs never used this got the right way, ever..
WOW!! The Houston Rockets just got the same trade Value from the Clips for Kenyon Martin Jr. Who was drafted in the Second Round. When Obi was Drafted 8th Ovr. Just WOW!! SMH🤦🏾♂️
Knicks just giving away assets …
What a dumb ass decision
Why didn't we trade Randle!!! This is a JOKE
