These Moves Could be HUGE For the New York Knicks – Roster Move Incoming? | Knicks News

NBA buyout season is among us and we have to talk about some guys that the New York Knicks can Target for their team for this playoff stretch so what’s up guys welcome back to Nicks digest it’s Chris here and we’re going to jump right into the video as we always do

Because the New York Knicks have a ton of open roster spots and with a ton of injuries right now and just again open roster spots in general because they’ve traded a bunch of players this season they need to find some guys in the buyout Market to sign and let’s just

Jump in and look at it right now using an article from the athletic we’re going to sort of go through this and among playoff hopefuls the Celtics Bulls were not a playoff hopeful they’re not going anywhere the Cavs the Dallas Mavericks the Lakers the heat the Bucks the Pacers

And the Kings all have an open roster spot the Warriors Pelicans Thunder and Timberwolves had two given the Thunder have now signed bism bambo and the Knicks and 76ers have three except the 76ers now have two because of the Kyle Lowry deal so look the Knicks have three

Open roster spots that’s the most of any team right now that is has any hope to make the playoffs and obviously the Knicks hop stretch far beyond the playoffs the Knicks are hoping to get to the Eastern Conference Finals this season if not the NBA Finals as Kendrick

Perkins said they’re as deep as the Pacific Ocean and you better get the rest of the Eastern Conference some life jackets look the Knicks have nine guys who can all start on a championship team in Jaylen Brunson Dante D venzo OG anobi Julius Reen I’m going the full team

Fully healthy Mitchell Robinson Isaiah hartenstein Josh Hart Bo on donovich and Alec Burks all of whom can start on an NBA final team maybe Josh Hart’s a little unclear but probably can start on a championship team and here’s the deal that means that whoever the Nick sign in

The buyout Market is not going to get long-term minutes assuming the team can get healthy for the playoffs and if they can that is going to be a hard sell on some guys especially veterans like the one who I want most of all Fus young now

Young was waved by the Brook Nets after the trade they made where Dennis Schroeder went to Brooklyn and that with thus young and Dennis and Dennis and Spencer deny went to the Toronto Raptors who obviously waved him instantly and now deny is a Laker now young started several games to the Raptors recently

Because Perle got injured and he can still make an impact in the elbows because he’s got a great passing ability and as they put here a weird array of running flips and floaters also he’s a great mid-range shooter he’s only 6’8 and can’t protect the rim anymore as

He’s not the athlete he used to be but he’s still an active handsy Defender who had an above League average 16.0 PR in his limited run this season he’s a weird funky player who doesn’t fit everywhere but at 35 he can still play look I’m not

Saying I want the Knicks to sign thus young and use him heavily come playoffs but he is a real option to have especially for right now because the Knicks are playing Taj givs in a lot of minutes and we are going to get more into Taj later in this video as though

The Knicks do have 13 open roster spots they’re almost certainly going to use one of them on Taj Gibson just to keep Taj on the team he’s been with the Knicks for a while now he’s very close with Tom Tibido he’s close with most of the roster at this point because he’s

Been here really since 2019 except for that one year where he took a detour with the Washington Wizards and basically played 40 games with them and got like cut from the team or something I don’t really know I was shocked that Taj didn’t retire after that but hey

Good for Taj he’s back he’s doing his thing and his thing really should be chilling on the bench and being a vet but he’s had to play in recent weeks because the Knicks entire team has gotten injured which has just been wonderful to watch because it’s the

First time we’ve ever been good at this sport but now TSH is playing minutes and Taj is 6′ n thus young is 6’8 thus young is much better than Taj Gibson is right now for the majority of thus Young’s career he was someone who you knew was

Going to be a hard-nosed Defender who’s a really good guy to have on your bench or is a starting power forward with some team especially back in the day and he was going to get you around 12 to 16 points per game a night for a season which obviously was great now young

Spent his first seven seasons on the Philadelphia 76ers before bouncing around from teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves the Indiana Pacers Chicago Bulls San Antonio Spurs then most recently the Toronto Raptors and I am curious to see what is going to happen with young because he is

A valuable player and I would love for the Knicks to bring him in but he would only really get minutes for the next month at most or so because eventually the Knicks are probably going to get healthy Isaiah Haren Stein’s probably going to come back in the pretty near

Future and that’s already going to hamper his minutes but the niick still could use another big body for now once randle’s back once they have basically the full team Mitchell Robinson maybe even not I mean the Knicks still do have precious they have Jero Sims they wouldn’t desperately need Thaddius young

But young could also be a good vet to have for a guy like Jericho Sims who’s the same height and kind of similar defensively where it’s like look and I’m talking Prime thus young not Thaddius young right now where young was an elite athlete and very strong so he was able

To protect the rim well even though he was a shorter player for a big man especially back in the day now 6’9 it’s not even that crazy you hardly ever see a 7’2 NBA Center anymore I mean outad of porzingis who’s 73 and Joel embiid who’s

71 and joic who’s like 611 there’s not too many huge centers in the I guess wanyama is was the first overall pick this year and he was or he is 7even foot4 but you know the Spurs sucker right now so doesn’t matter especially because they’re in the Western

Conference so we’re going to pretend like Victor rinama doesn’t exist for the sake of this argument essentially what I’m saying is you could be 6’9 play center nowadays where back then if you were 6’8 you were going to play small forward or maybe power forward but you’d be looked at as a

Small power forward at 68 the way the world changes because people keep getting taller in life but for some reason NBA power forwards just keep getting shorter we got 6’6 guys out there who are just pure Sharpshooters and that’s the entire power for our position now because the NBA really is

Positioned L fully at this point thanks to Wardell Stephen Curry now thatti is Young this season is averaging his lowest points per game of well his career he averaged six points per game in his rookie year every other year of his life Fus Charles young has averaged

In the double digits he’s still shooting 62% from the field though his PR is above League average at 16.1 which we’ve talked about a little bit the Knicks need him for 15 minutes a night for the next month and I would love for them to

Be able to do this I just don’t see if you could sell Fus Young on this but hey at the end of the day fatrick Johnson might just do it as he would get to join a team that could potentially at the end of the day win the NBA finals and that

Would be awesome but there’s obviously a good chance that young finds somewhere where he could play real minutes and he he’ll just prioritize that whether it’s a team that has as good of a chance to win the finals as the Knicks maybe it’s a better chance for I don’t know someone

Like the Phoenix Suns who could definitely use them and yeah he’s probably going to sound the Suns but whatever we could still go for him we could try to get him we could see what happens but we move on as there are more guys to talk about such as former Nick

Danilo galinari who as they said is the walking definition of toast on defense and then they call him a six foot 10 stretch five that’s kind of weird considering that denil galinari has never once played center in his career he’s been a shooting guard small forward

And a power forward he’s never been a center and he never will be because it’s just not a sepe of play but galinari still provides enough stretch ability and individual scoring with second units to make him Val valuable in the right situation then also I put Taj Gibson in here just

Because he was listed right below him and the Knicks have three open roster spots need another big with Robinson injured you can get your tibs smiling jff ready obviously Tod is on the team right now and I do believe he is going to get Ma I almost said a max deal Taj

Is you know what I mean he’s going to get a contract that’s guaranteed for the rest of the season I think we should give tajha Max Steel to be a coach for the team and the reason I think that is because Taj Gibson is done dude he is cooked when

He’s been out there these last three games someone’s GNA take that Max thing seriously too wow if you do stop stop it get some help as Michael Jordan might say but if we’re looking at it Taj Gibson is done dude these last three games he’s played an average of 20

Minutes he scored two points and gotten like five rebounds over that span and the man looks like he’s going to collapse on the court like it’s really bad he cannot be playing anymore they have to tell this man to stop and be like look you can hang out on the team

You can be our version of Udonis Haslam but dude you are done that’s you can’t move dude you’re really really just imot at this point and that’s fine because Taj is 38 years old and there’s only one LeBron James who is really just out running the clock un like no one ever

Has and Taj Gibson for the majority of his career has averaged under 10 points per game anyway so it’s not like Taj just some Superstar they’re keeping him around for Vibes purposes he cannot be on the court it is a liability for the New York dicks to have him on the court

Despite the fact that he is the opposite of a liability to have at the end of the bench just being an extension of the coaching staff especially since Ryan Arch deako is not going to play for the the Knicks until around uh like August when they sign him again or something

Because obviously rako has one team interested in him in the NBA and that is the New York Knicks we love him on the bench he’s what the yo Hinson was for a while except now it’s just the Nova Knicks and with that Arch diako is our

Guy I would like the idea of Danilo galinari to a degree but again I just don’t see where he fits he’s just like the worst version of buan bonovich for the Knicks so ginard can go sign somewhere else but I figured it’d be cool to mention because it would be cool

If we watched his career end with him coming full circle obviously being off his second ACL tear things are probably looking Bleak for danillo though he he’ll get on a team for sure he shoots the ball too well and he’s 6’1 that’s enough to get you on a roster for a

Little bit more though I am kind of bummed out that it won’t be with the Knick we don’t need him look but back to Taj because this I’ll be honest is my motivation for this video is that the Knicks need a different Center for right now because Taj is not that guy you’re

Not that guy pal anymore Taj is averaging 1.1 points per game and it’s 14 games played this year with two rebounds and 0.5 assists he’s shooting 31.8% from the field which is obviously by far the lowest of his career he’s one for one on his free throws this year so

That’s cool or two for two I don’t really know I didn’t check his totals on basketball reference because I saw these numbers and was like oh God TSH please please just become a coach already the second Taj Gibson retires he’s gonna sign to the Knick’s coaching staff let’s

Wrap it up bro because we can’t have you playing anymore it’s just it sucks cuz he you know he was the biggest superstar of the Nick side in 2019 when KD and Kyrie went to the Brooklyn Nets the Nicks got Taj Gibson Bobby poris and Julius Randall and alred

Payton shout out Nicks fan 63 on Twitter um and it’s really gotten to the point where there’s no need for Taj Gibson to be playing basketball for the New York Knicks we’re too good of a team to have this it’s just it’s not a good look we’re a great team we’re realistically

Contending for the NBA Finals even though it’s an outside shot and Taj Gibson is still sitting on the playing he played the last three games he might play tonight we have to stop just sign someone please for three minutes a night let precious atua play the whole game or

Something we cannot have Tosh Gibson on the court he’s unfortunately become way too much of a liability for any excuse for this man to still be in the NBA on the court again that is I’m fine with Tod sticking around with the Knicks and being on their bench I actually kind of

Hope he does stick around and stays on the bench for at least the rest of this year and then calls it a career and then joins the Nicks bench as a coach because I think that would be absolutely awesome now if you look at Taj as I said it’s

Career lows across the board it’s just it’s over it’s it’s as it’s as the kids might say nowadays it’s J uh that was yeah I just said that on YouTube nice um wow people are not going to know what that means but to really just round things out here here are some other

Options that the Knicks can sign obviously the buyout Market is not great and one of the reasons why I put this is because the existence of Mr Fort Knox himself look PJ Tucker he’s not going to get moved till the summer though I would love him on the Knicks I think he would

Just be a solid addition but again the problem is he’s going to be pissed off because he’s not going to play with the Knicks they could bring back Rolo for bench depth I would love that again cuz he’s not Taj Gibson and that’s the whole

Thing he’s just not Taj and I don’t want this to be an anti- Taj video I want it to be a pro Taj as a coach video so along with you know talking about the buyouts or whatever um but yeah Robin Lopez could be a guy the

Nicks could look at Furon corkas is done in the NBA Kevin Knox it’s it’s over bro it’s over the next KD I guess not and then Joe Harris who got that ankle surgery and has unfortunately looked like he is um well how do I put this it

Looks like he is just Chris Gallagher on the basketball court and that’s not a good thing because no one wants that so that all being said this was a long long long ass video so I’m going to wrap it up real quick and just be like guys

Please sign someone or two people and Jacob toppen fully guaranteed Jacob toppins contract keep him around on the team for the next few years he’s playing great basketball I talked about in the last video you can go check that one out now because obviously all you want to do

Is listen to Nick’s digest and because of that just subscribe to the channel already I see you looking at me you think I’m not talking to you I’m talking to you dude subscribe why not it’s going to change your life that much no it’s going to change my life yes positively

There this is a lowrisk high reward scenario for you because you help about me and nothing happens to you except I might send you if I see that you subscribed I’ll I’ll send you a little thank you I try to do that to you guys because I’m a good person who wants Taj

Gibson to stop playing basketball and Coach the New York Net as an assistant for Tom Tibido have a great day guys and go New York Knicks also why is Daddy youngest middle named Charles I didn’t expect that at all
