IQ is all class. Good kid. Canāt imagine the disappointment he felt.
Wonāt be shocked to see him return one day.

Damn stop cutting onionsā¦
But seriously, IQ deserves everything he gets in Toronto. Glad heās getting the well deserved opportunity to start.

Chop the wood. Carry the water.
Salute to IQ š«”
Once a Knick, always a Knick.
Godspeed in Toronto ā¤ļø

“Thanks for making it matter” is a perfect way to put it.
You’ll always be our guy, IQ. It hurts to see you in another uniform, but i hope the Raps traded for an All Star.
Go kick ass against 28 other teams.

Man, Ju just sounds like a good dude!
Iāll always miss Quick on the Knicks, he was electric.

Man that was beautiful.

Hopefully one day if things work out heāll be back at some point in his career. Loved having him here, wish him the best. Once a Knick, always a Knick.

Would love to see him have a full career and then come back at the end sorta like Rose in 2020

*Beautiful* endnote coming back to him dancing on Boston.
Wish him all the success.

This is the most hurt Iāve ever felt about the trade of one of my teamās players. That says a lot about the man and the player that IQ was. My favorite Knick ever. I wish him the best, heās already killing it in T Dot.

Love Quick, this got me feeling a type of way. Itās clear he viewed himself as a starter from day 1, which is why Iām happy he got traded to a place where he can shine. Looking forward to the future JB vs Quickley battles as I think theyāll bring the best out of each other

The honesty and authenticity shine through. RJ and IQ are both super high character guys who we were lucky to have.

Oh man. You never know how tight the group is as a fan…but IQ basically let us know that this was a harder decision than any of us realized. Best communication from a player to the fans I’ve ever read. I was trying to move on Quick! Now I’m going to be watching Raptors games and I don’t have time for that.

Fuck Iām tearing up in the bathroom at work.
Best of luck to IQ in Toronto. Glad heās getting the opportunity he deserves.

>Itāll be weird coming back to the Garden as a visitor and being in the visitorsā locker room. Thatās gonna take some getting used to. All the weirdness and adjusting is all good, though. Thatās life. Ultimately, itās just another reminder that these past three years really meant something.

What a testament to his Mom and Dad for raising such a fine man.
That’s a lesson for you, kids… Don’t be afraid to show your emotions. When people say to speak your mind, it doesn’t always have to be about fighting back or sticking up for yourself…. It could be about showing love, gratitude, and positivity. A lot of men are afraid to expose that part of themselves, but the strong, confident ones are not.

I will never stop rooting for this man. I just loved the joy he played with from skipping back after a big 3 or that time he got fouled for an and-one and started air swimming on the court. I’m glad he felt the love and can see the bigger picture. This trade really could be a huge win-win for both teams, but it doesn’t make me less sad about not having our Quick still in blue and orange.
