    >“Obviously, Giannis is my brother, and obviously, I love Milwaukee. I love Milwaukee. But at the same time… I want to play. You always want to play and feel important.  And at the same time, you want, like… It’s just because of how I am as a player.”

    he might have actually been our backup 4. although i think rj as the 4, to create some separation from julius, will be very effective.

  3. I always forget we drafted him. I wouldn’t have hated the signing. I remember when he went off against us last season when we played the bucks with Giannis out.

  4. endlessanarchy

    for those who said he would bad mouth us at least there’s no animosity and shows actually we already planting roots in their heads to bring them over

    Damn, the front office actually wanted to sign him?

  6. The_Notorious_Donut

    No, no I wanted the other one!

    This dude isn’t an NBA quality player.

  8. York_Villain

    Sounds more like he was considering keeping Giannis’ seat warm

    and who said that Giannis would not come here because Thanasis would stop him from doing so

    Bring the young Prince back home.

  11. MrMoistandDelicious

    It would have been to get Giannis nothing more

  12. LeonRothschild

    Lol why?

    He rides off the last name.

    He’s not that dude. At all.

    I’d rather not sign him cuz it all sounds good until he gets no minutes and it pisses off his brother. Didn’t that happen the last time? I think it was the same brother

  14. The_MadStork

    At least we have Jacob Toppin in case we need to use him to recruit his more talented brother

    That’s my all-time favorite Westchester Knick (after Jimmer Fredette) you’re talking about… have some respect.

  16. curbsein

    If anyone just watched him vs team USA he was worst player on Greece by far

  17. LeonRoseSignsMVP

    He’s not a great player or anything, but he’s a very good defender

    The Knicks just can’t land that big fish.
