The Knicks got peanuts in return for OBi because Toppins agent is Leon Rose's son. Leon jeopardizinng the Knicks progress for his son's wallet. 🤦
I forgive everything when next year we get Embid and someone else and go for the bank. I am very patient. We have a great pg but he's not gona be here forever. Atm i dont see any reason why would we get past 2 round. And only reason why we get there is Tibs playn 4 guys 40m per game. And when we need them most, they are empty.
Fournier will be moved in a deal the question is what kind
I dont think Josh Hart opted in and Donte agreed to that deal for it to be the only moves the knicks make this offseason. I think Leon Rose spoke to them beforehand and explained this is what we’re trying to do to build for the future and they agreed with his vision. I do believe 1 or 2 more trades are coming
I think I’m done with this team. You know hart and Donte be stealing iq and grimes minutes then we will lose them and who know what happens to Rj too. And we got zero young guys we developed past two drafts so nothing In pipeline I think I’m done really don’t like this Coach ,don’t love the trade, hate Randal and going to get sick of the Villanova connection crap. Idk I may have to take a break from Knicks
Fournier will take his spot. He’s getting rewards for being a class act and honestly I like the move. Fournier offers more than what obi did. Ya on here crying for obi like he was MJ Lmaoo like Foh the dude was OK at best.
Being a long time knicks fan i'll root for the Lakers until my Knicks separate themselves from thibadeau because i have a bad feeling about this coming season.
Bad trade. Obi will average 25ppg easy and will be an All Star. Thibs is an of average coach. Likely he will never win a championship. Likely he will be fired after next season.
Not happy about losing Obi. Developing a player is an investment, and we just threw away a talented and likeable 8th overall pick for nothing. Obi was a major surplus. Instead of a major surplus banked, now when we check our pockets we got chump change rattling around.
I'm just hella nervous for those games against obi!!! Hes gonna give our team everything he has! I'm hoping it's role player productivity but he dropped big points in meaningless games so maybeeee he can do the same in a revenge game
Leon is scared. He ain’t making more moves
Knicks are being destroyed by Thibbs and his special counsel.
😢sports suck they sell out the games as we know it. This last fee years have been a joke only storys and nun about basketball 😢😢
😂tibbs on that 💉💊
More mismanagement of assets. Just have away a lottery because Thibs couldn't be inventive enough to utilize him properly and thereby increase his value.
The pick should have obviously been Haliburton. That was the position of need.
Roby will back up randle i hope 🏀🙏
The Obi trade is Knicks history repeating itself. Sad honestly another Brooklyn kid who played for the Knicks getting moved to the Pacers. It happened with Mark Jackson before same situation and then they beat US in the playoffs… Obi is special saw a stat 75% shooting in transition and we barely ever got in transition. I've been patient with Tibs but don't trust him as a coach. Honestly nervous about our season next year. Hanging your hat on the Nova players reuniting in the league is kind of weak. Just pissed about Obi really pissed. And to the RJ haters that boy works and loves the game stop the hate.
He'll nah we gotta do better then 2 second round picks for a dude we drafted in the lottery. Shit it's not his fault he didn't get playing time or a good run. If randle wasn't there shit would have been different. They should have traded randle
Where you been bro?!
Isaiah roby backup pf
Thibbs is not benching Barrett 🤦🏾🤦🏾what's going to happen is Barrett will still play the 3. When Randle comes out o the game Barrett will move to the 4 spot. The move only means that Barrett is going to get more minutes.
3 days later I'm still as pissed that the Knicks traded Obi for NOTHING. The second unit will not be the same without Obi bursting down the court. Our coach is terrible.
We need a new training staff our training staff is the worst in this league
They should go for pj Washington or Christian woods
Two second round picks that are worthless because Indiana is ginna be a perennial playoff team. Let the haters continur they can hate RJ also but keep the receipts for when come the first 35 games the chants will be loud for Leon and Thibodeau's head. Rest assured there is a saying that some things in life are cyclical, eell get ready for the knickerbockers back in the lottery in 2026!!!
I hate the trade, but I’m happy for Obi, I love the fact that he told Thibs how he felt. Thibs could’ve played Randle and Obi together more. But two 2nd rounders! Pacers steal for sure.
The Indiana Pacers fleece the incompetent and inept New York Knicks The inept incompetent New York Knicks management giving up Obi Toppin's for peanuts only two second round picks instead of a first round pick and now pacers will use their new cap space to win free agency trades. Why didn't the Knicks save Obi for trades for when a free agent the Knicks like to get them and who will back up Randle when he gets injured? Obi was that player to back up Randle. By trading Obi who the Dinosaur coach Thibodeau did not know how to decide Obi and Randle minuets wanted Obi an 8th draft pick gone but for peanuts 😂😂😂
Fire thibs
The light u shed around @4:00 was amazing not only u reminded me how bad the knicks been in the past but how bad it's continuing and as a knicks fan from NY but sometimes I am oblivious to all of what's actually going on cause everything is moving so fast out here
But…
We gna win a championship real soon <which i was saying before obi left> but now I gotta really understand what really happen because seriously we beat alot of teams due to our bench and if we take away that obi and quick connection the team is completely different
Honestly off the top of my head I cannot remember how many games we won but vinchenzo ( how ever u spell it )
Can't cover obi's role
We need to get Zach
@6:24 uuuummmmmm nah bro no one on our roster could play the back up 4 … unless hartenstein comes off the bench and he is too ….
whats the word im looking for
Less mobile
@6:53 rj starts or bench i don't mind to me he is another al horford (demeanor wise)
I'm really upset with the Knicks n thibs but let's see what the new season a bring
Knicks make moves to set up the future….and then never close on the next step.. Again, Again, Again and Again.,
Hate this move for so many reasons. My biggest one, why wasn’t Fournier and his horrible contract included in this trade. Clearly the value for Obi was low for some reason so they should forced the pacers to take that contract on….frustrated CK
I wanted to pair obi with Fournier to trade for a SF
The obi toppin trade was a favor to obi toppin, in my opinion that’s why the trade was made
Im so suprised how much energy people have for a backup PF who was playing behind an All-NBA 4. Obi as an asset isnt the #8 pick anymore. He is what he is as an asset.
the FO and Thibs have this team in its best position in 20 years and y'all really doubting and hating on them so hard
Trade him to the east is crazy
brunson
quickley
grimes
hart
donte
deuce
fournier
why do we have so many guards bro
I don’t understand why Knicks developed a player then trade for someone that hasn’t proved anything.. smfh
I’ve read a few of the responses on here, and threw up in my mouth. NYK’s management and coach are showing us that they are out of they’re depth in this business. Failure after failure are starting to build up. But lets wait and see how the FA signings play out. If there are any other deals or a trade pans out. If it ends that we are seriously just running it back with this squad in tow…START THE COUNTDOWN for Leon Rose and Thib’s dismissal!!!
I was thinking the same thing they might use JS at the 4 for obi
