Gilbert Arenas FIRES BACK At New York Knicks Fans



Gilbert Arenas FIRES BACK At New York Knicks Fans

So speaking of your comments on the Nicks from ear this week uh Nick beat writer for the New York daily news Christian Winfield uh posted the following tweet in response to what you said about the state of the franchise and them needing a star player said Gil said the Knicks are top

Three in payroll they are 17th in active cap then he says they need to trade for a star and the first name he says is Jaylen green where is he at what is he he’s the beat writer New York Daily News honorable man Gil honorable man no he

Can be honorable man but is he going like he still has to get credentials every single day to be a beat Rider in New York it’s the only team that does that right you know Dolan’s Petty he’s like kind of like me right so they got

To apply every game to be a beat Rider in case you said some foul just in case he said some foul your ass back in here door you know so I I I can see but the problem is here like you you’re a googler that’s your friend telling me

Need to get his Google game up I said exactly what did I say now you go you got to tell me because what I said was they’ve spent the most money in the league top three and having won a championship you got to listen to all of the words won a championship

Which means you have to move further than the two three years you’re going to try to to make them 17 if you go back to the 80s from the 80s till now you’re going to be top three in spending money have you won a championship since the

80s no Lakers have New York has Chicago has even Golden State understand what I’m saying and that’s what happens you guys are so quick to try to make me wrong that you don’t listen to the words that I’m actually saying um when I say you do not know talent and whoever’s

Been picking talent in the New York organization 83 y’all had a chance to get um there was this guy by the name of Clyde Drexler didn’t get him God damn it that’s a superstar right didn’t get him they’re super we don’t even know I don’t

Even throw names on who you got um 86 you could have had Ron Harper [ __ ] you could have had Elden Campbell with I mean now think about that kind of team right you got Clyde you got big Feller Yuan you got uh Ron Harper you got um Mark Jackson because they picked him

That was a great pick and then you could have had Elden Campbell at the four that’s a great team and then eventually after you did Mark you got Rod Strickland which is a great player but you already just picked the point guard the year before that stupid and eventually you picked Hubert

Davis right I mean come on G no no h Davis Lander on the L Thursday hey I mean you went great Anthony I mean how many point guards you need that couldn’t really do nothing then you always needed a three you went Hubert Davis when you should have went Latrell spre well right

I mean think about a championship they could have had so is it me that don’t know Talent OR you we can even go recent let’s let’s try from uh oh The Notebook is out 2008 handy dandy they could have had Brook Lopez they could have had dear D

Rozan I want to know who dropped the ball on that in the workout um you could have had Jimmy Butler damn I want to know who dropped the ball in that workout you could have had Devin Booker God damn it who was valuating at that time mhm

Donovan Mitchell God damn it right you could have had bam Donovan Mitchell or bam right mhm Turn the Page Turn the page right you got RJ right but if you looked at your team you already had that position so you could have got Garland right you had Garland Knox moris poris and

Randall better team mhm most of your PS you don’t even have anymore Kevin Knox who’s over in uh Detroit right now good but he’s he’s decent um y’all could have had a dude by the name of um people say we look alike just for the

Rec is is is how Burton a superstar yes oh they could have had him mhm oh I have made Gil out all the receipt uhuh they could have had this dude by the name of Shay [ __ ] really they could have Shay or [ __ ] or Mel whatever what you could have

Had either one of those two could have had Mr B Brandon J but you I think the other issue they had when you went on that last year’s pick right I don’t know who they pick but who they could but I know it ain’t uh Jaylen Williams who’s averaging

18 huh who was in that [ __ ] workout mhm I I I’m just trying to figure out where I said something wrong at hey I’ll even [ __ ] you up New York and y’all can sit here bitter all day when LeBron them was a free agent I think they wanted to go there so braon

Wade Bosch and Mike Miller was going to follow them and you decided to follow what Dan Tony was saying by Dan Tony picking his own man Amari STM so so if I tell you go after jayen green hey that’s what we he averaged 22 points

Last year as a 20year old if you look at everybody Bes it’s it’s Cade and him from that class you have a 66 guy I’m pretty sure if you can find this in the league let me know 66 guy who can create his own shot got fast twitch muscles jumped 46 48 inch

Vertical and and can put people people in the seat highlight re if you can find that um anywhere let me know and he has a fallowing and he has yeah and he’s very easy to Market very right very easy right luxrious that’s easy on the eyes

You have the fem easy on the eyes and he got a whole and he’s Filipino Filipino Filipino black let me know if I’m saying something this is how this is how bad I’m I’m going pick it back New York picket is I’m going to tell you I got something to say who is

What I’ll let you go no go who’s they have one of the biggest guards that La I mean that New York has produced right in the draft in the draft he’s coming up by the name of Rafer Austin he is a demig God for New York basketball you have a chance to pick

Him and you don’t and he goes the very next pick Skip to My L ladies and gentlemen you have skipped to my [ __ ] l in your back pocket right here second round pick you’re telling me that just for the city itself you hiring your friends someone

Who’s going to you don’t think all those people would have ran to the arena he was the biggest thing moving in New York D during an mixed MH I don’t know nothing yeah no so I so when I was doing my my rounds doing TV thing I was asked a question about

Waiting on to go in and talk to P that been office and ESPN on right and it come across the bottom line on ESPN while I’m sitting in the office the Nicks fire I was like I I see the coaches coaches going off in the room in

There I tell everybody you know what thank you for your time I see y’all a little busy today I’mma go about my business man hey like like crazy this man conducted practice like you could have fired him before practice like you let this man conduct practice he come over there everything

Was fine hunky D hahhaa and they get this man the boot right after practice I was like oh yeah [ __ ] that crucial right b boy you before we move on uh producers wanted to let you know uh you rattled off a bunch of of names I

Think one name you didn’t mention was a gentleman by the name of Steph Curry that the Knicks had the opportunity to draft yesik so so Curry did go the pck before no I’m going to say don’t don’t act listen so our producers [ __ ] listen okay produc they could have traded up

The producers is googlers bro they googlers they ain’t got they ain’t got my Google I got some new [ __ ] over here they said it was the chat they said it was the chat don’t pack me up I’m not listening to chat man I know what I’m

Doing over here man don’t pack me up if you do wait till after the show today they could have traded up like you know you got he could have trade up even when some talks about jayen like oh Jaylen 22 points man at 20 years old the name name

A rookie y’all done had that had 22 points as a rookie like he’s on Pace to be a a a Allstar right so what my my thing is this team you have let it go right yeah make a this is how good that Jaylen green is you give them

Randall and Brunson right now I guarantee they turn you down cuz he’s he’s future right once you get future you build on it he’s he’s 21 22 years old so you uh was it Paulo Paulo benero Paul the banker he averaged 20 jayen green averaged 22 at the same

Age you see it so if he’s if he’s the the the foundation then why do you think I named him yeah Patrick Patrick average 20th rookie you’re not 20 [ __ ] was 37 at that age Ain going [ __ ] about yeah no Jaylen green can go yeah 37 absolutely

Yeah he’s struggling a little bit right now but you got to see that the Personnel that they put around in Houston now it’s kind of taking his Groove away a little bit took the ball out of his hand if if I said this people think I’m hey what the that’s what

Happened when the front office don’t know what the [ __ ] they doing doing M um just [ __ ] putting pieces together New York Knicks has been the Clippers of the East and nobody’s ever said it the old Clippers of the East Where damn Gil have you noticed that since

Since their biggest free agent ever is going to be Brunson that’s going to be the best free agent they ever signed Brunson will will be that the only rookie they’ve ever extended is RJ Barrett they just got got rid of them they cuz they don’t want

To what do I know uh I feel like a like you but uh we’re going to be getting packed up for the next several days or attempted to don’t pack me up don’t pack me up I’m not the one picking you guys Cann I get into theame hey hey hey if I

Was picking and I’m sitting there watching Talent trust me I would have seen I would have seen Clyde Drexler I can tell you that for sure yeah one thing one thing yeah yeah I wouldn’t have to pick the talent ain’t yo you got to yeah you got to know what you’re

Looking for absolutely okay I I know I wouldn’t have picked this wouldn’t have been my one two and three I wouldn’t have had um I would have had Hubert Davis no was he coming off the bench Greg Andy one of them it don’t matter you had Mark Jackson that don’t matter

You had you had three guards you had uh uh Glenn Davis you know um doc you had him at the three at at 64 Glen Rivers yeah Glen Glenn yeah 64 you had three 64 guards let’s take one two and three and you telling me why Jordan was giving

Y’all buckets well let’s take it right now it started three left-handed players [ __ ] just a what now but [ __ ] and and on that note let’s keep it moving [ __ ] uh G I get a feeling that you’re going to get a pair of Timberland boots with a dead

Fish in it sent to your house sometime in the near future look they’re they’re building in a sense right like they I guess like when the team has been winning a little bit they think that I’m saying something so I already see what’s happening with you guys right

You guys are at a you’re stalled out right you’re stalled like you just you just traded your future the the future you had you just got rid of him right he was a solid RJ barar like you got rid of him what do you think you’re going to do

With Rando in a minute minute you’re going to get rid of him you’re going to be back to Ground Zero once again because you don’t have nobody to take you over the hump right you’re like Memphis without the Jamar aspect of it I’m telling you get the jamaran aspect

First and then you can bring in the Brunson and all of that to build around that star so yeah you can make the playoffs and do this every year and win you’re never going for the money y’all have what putting that boy in that for the money y’all have be buying OKC

Themselves hey y’ hey hey hey who over there scouting Scout for me too goddamn it I’ll pay you double whoever scouting for OKC give me him as my GM as my GM godamn it you talking about my [ __ ] GM Pistons are the worst team in the league right now

  1. Knicks also extended Mitchell Robinson. If you folding here you really might just be talking out yo ass. Tbh a lot of teams missed those talents and the Knicks have had issues trying to build their teams in the last two decades or so. But everything about the last five years says the Knicks makes sense. You been a hater lmao

  2. Jimmy went like 30 the knicks weren’t the only team that passed on him. The draft is a crap shoot. You can say that about a bunch of teams.

  3. Jalen green nobody wants to build around him his team got better when they took the ball out his hands wtf y’all talking bout

  4. Can we also stop referring to Madison Square as "the garden"?
    When it comes to basketball, they can get that title back after they've won 17 championships.

  5. Gil talks like he played for an organization that got past the 2nd round! He always talks about the Knicks but what about the Hawks,magic,hornets,pistons,etc that have made horrible decisions the past decade

  6. The Knicks are fine.. The current management team have drafted well. The one mistake is they picked Obi over Halliburton but mad teams passed on him. This current management team is the best team they have had in 30 years of me watching. The fact that no one mentioned IQ tells me folks talk, but they don’t watch Knicks basketball. Immanuel Quickly 25 pick, has a higher ceiling than RJ. IQ will be a household name shortly, but he’ll be wearing Raptors colors. Melo was the last star that they went all in on and did have enough to put the right pieces around him after the trade.

  7. Man said he’s gonna get a pair of timberland boots with a dead fish in it sent to your house sometime in the near future 😂 as a New Yorker that was hilarious

  8. Gil left an important fact…..most of those picks never won on their original team 🧐 likes to sound smart but really😂😂😂😂

  9. Gilberto arenas better chill before i send Isaiah Stewart to come get him again. That young boy scared the shit out of Gilberto arenas lmao

  10. By listening to Gil's take on knicks front office picking talents (or lack thereof), as a knicks fan for 25 years, i just felt like crying in shame. SMH.

  11. I’m a Knicks fan and for the most part Gil been on point about how our organization been ran. Sad who we traded still pissed… Don’t like or even agree with most of Gil’s takes but he 100% correct on the Knicks take and I ain’t even made about it sad sad and sadder as a Knicks fan it’s been hard. Thought we were making good moves drafting our guys Robinson and RJ first rookies to sign a deal since Charlie Ward… RJ and IQ so young and they just sent our future talent away. Hope them boys go off back home on the 20th. Still pissed!!! The Clippers of the East is so rich 🤣😂🤣😂

  12. One Error On Gil's List: Kevin Knox Is A Clear BUST!!! He Get's Maddd DPCD His Most Recent 'Good Game' Is Like Halley's Comet. Not Coming Around Again In Years. He Is Not "Decent" Like Gill States

  13. A young Skip wouldn't workout in NYC back then. He was too much a NYC legend, he wouldn't been focus on basketball.

  14. Jalen and Cade aren’t even the best players from that class lmao. Scottie and Sengun are the 2 best by far.

  15. At the end of the day what do the fans have to do with the decisions Dolan and the front office makes ? It’s not like we could vote who we want to own and run the team from a business perspective…

  16. Just googled the 1983 draft 1986 these are 2 of the worst drafts I ever seen in my life … Lmaoo nigga thought it was 1984 class huh

  17. Pat also got drafted in 1985 … with a team with a 2nd year Clyde be a lotto team to get big Pat ? Like this the problem you just say shit with no real thought comes off dumb

  18. I literally had this conversation two days ago with my brother. The Knicks are the worst team in sports history when it comes to evaluating talent and potential. They’ve missed out on at least 15 All NBA talents that were available when their turn came. It’s literally the only reason the Knicks have been trash for 20 plus years.
