Knicks SHAKE Things Up… | New York Knicks News

We have a major report the New York Knicks have finalized their roster for this season they have just added from the buyout Market Shake Milton so they have literally shook up the NBA World by making this addition and adding Shake Milton to their backourt and now they have more backourt depth when Jaylen

Brunson goes to the bench we’re going to break down this report and so much more today if you’re not already subscribed to the channel go ahead and hit that subscribe button now now and make sure you have notifications turned on so you don’t miss a second of the new content and

Now let’s get started the Knicks have signed Shake Milton for the rest of the season Alec Burks I’m looking at you tick tock tick tock the main reason in my opinion that the Knicks added Shake Milton to this team was not only because of injuries not only cuz Jaylen Brunson has neck

Spasms at times and he’s playing better part of 40 plus minutes a night and he’s one of the league leaders in terms of usage rate that’s not the only reason you add Shake Milton the other reason you add him is because our bench right now with Miles McBride and Alec Burks on

It is not great McBride is good some of the time not all of the time Burks since he’s been here has been a legitimate chucker he’s been chucking up so many shots missing so many shots it’s unbelievable that Tom tho continues to play him but now we have options if Alec

Burks can’t do it if miles McBride can’t do it shake Milton absolutely can let’s break down this latest report showing that the New York Knicks are signing Shake Milton as soon as he clears waivers according to Adrien wowski and of course Shams from the athletic they both state that sources indicate that

Shake Milton is is planning to sign with the New York Knicks upon clearing waivers Milton agreed to a contract buyout with the Detroit Pistons and will be eligible for a Nicks playoff roster spot the guard gives immediate help to an injury riddled roster Shams also stated that the Knicks signed him

Because they wanted more backourt depth and scoring and that’s exactly what I think Shake Milton is going to give this Knicks team not only he going to give you scoring not only he going to help take pressure off of Jaylen Brunson he is some that’s going to help stabilize

The offense once he’s there he’s going to give you some points off of the bench he can score in high volume he can start he can come off the bench he can do whatever you need him to do whenever you need him to do it you know who he sounds

Like he doesn’t have the same skill set but he sounds a lot like Dante D vinchenzo and honestly we could use more Dante D vinchenzo on this roster at least those who have that same type of mindset hustle do everything you can do out there once you’re out there have an

Impact in any single way that you can make a difference every single player on this Knicks team has that type of mentality it’s a stepup type of mentality that they have they walk into the game they’re locked in and focused and they do everything that Tom thibo

Needs them to do play their roles perfectly exactly so that way the New York Knicks can be a better team because of them not a worst team because of them Alec Burks since you’ve been on this roster some games you’ve helped very few most of the games you’ve been in you’ve

Hurt this Knicks team you’ve made them a little bit of a worse team because you are chucking up shots you are just a chucker sometimes there are people opening the wings on the perimeter in the paint and you’re still chucking you are not passing that ball so when I saw

The Knicks add Shake Milton I wasn’t shocked I wasn’t surprised maybe a little surprised at the name cuz I didn’t expect shake to be on the buyout Market or for the New York Knicks to get him but the fact that they got him I understood why 100% look at our roster

Look what happens when we go to the bench Alec Burks and Miles McBride love those two they’re just not consistent McBride ever since the trade has taken a nose dive downward I don’t know if it’s pressure he feels a little anxiety because Burks is there and he knows he’s

Going to take his minutes I’m not sure but at this point in time he can’t be effective enough in the way that we need him to be Alec Burke certainly can’t be effective enough in the ways we need him to be so Shake Milton what if he can if

Shake comes in here immediately has an impact immediately with a lot of these guys I promise you slowly and surely he is going to be the lead guard coming off of that bench and everybody else is going to follow him along Burks follow him along miles McBride follow him along

The question here is is Tom thibo going to expand his roster and give Shake Milton another opportunity to add to this roster making it a 10-man roster or and this is in my opinion what I think he’s going to do is he going to replace somebody in the

Current roster with Shake Milton if you know Tom thibo and you understand his coaching style what he likes to do how he likes to play I think going up to getting healthy he’ll do whatever he needs to do to win the games so Shake is

Probably going to see a lot of times in that regard however once the Knicks are fully healthy and we get back that depth I fully believe that shake will be a situational player for Tom thibo and the New York Knicks and the main reason for that is the Knicks when healthy are so

Deep at all of these positions you don’t really need a shake but you can add a shake to the team only if you feel like you need his production you need his offense you need his defense or somebody on the current roster that you’re playing is not doing what they need need

To do and if that’s the case you can plug and play Shake Milton that’s how good of a player the Knicks have right now I’m not saying he’s groundbreaking he’s a world beater he’s going to change the entire game for the New York Knicks nobody’s saying that but the Knicks

Adding Shake Milton to this roster absolutely tells me that they know what they need they know what they’re missing and they know they have a huge gap to fill Off the Bench everybody needs to step up on that bench to basically fill the void of what we lost with IQ and the

Amount of scoring he was doing from that bench now we have to split it up between Burks between McBride and now between Shake Milton between the other players we have coming off the bench this is why the Knicks need to do this we need more bench scoring consistently like we need

More scoring consistently from the starters not only from the paint but also from the perimeter and the wing we need more players that put fear in the Defenders heart when they’re shooting from three because likely if that happens they’re going to have to put more Defenders on that player making it

Easier for our paint drivers in Jaylen Brunson Julius Randall and whoever else wants to drive in that paint I also want to mention that Nick’s video on the app X mentioned that Milton has played in 42 games this year for the Timberwolves and the Pistons averaging 4.9 points per

Game now I know it’s easy to look at the points per game and think to yourself well that’s not a lot of points per game he can’t be that impactful that helpful look at the teams he was playing for he was not getting that much run for any of

Those teams as well and that’s why he wanted to get bought out from the Detroit Pistons he’s coming to the New York Knicks I’m very excited about that his points are going to go up his assists are going to go up and right now this time being while we’re injured his

Minutes are going to Skyrocket at the moment because we need each and every minute he’s going to play for this Knicks team to stay afloat and for us to be able to win and I found this next report from Ian Bagley even more interesting about shake and the fact

That he’s part of this roster because it seems like the New York Knicks were likely going to add him before the trade deadline if they didn’t add boan banovic and Alec Burks according to Ian Bagley the New York Knicks monitored Burks boan and Detroit New York checked in with

Minnesota on Shake Milton prior to the trade deadline a source confirms that they’ll sign him once he clears waivers interested to see if Tom thibo expands the rotation or if Shake takes current rotation spot ESPN reported this first shout out to Ian Bagley for giving us this report and a little bit more

Information on why the New York Knicks signed Shake Milton so clearly they see a fit they see a role but more than that they see a player they can get behind that they obviously want to sign that’s going to help this Nicks team today now

For the rest of the season but also come the postseason because come the postseason you already know what it is there are going to be players that get ill they get injured they get sick something’s going to happen once that happens it creates opportunity now that opportunity may be knocking on Shake

Milton’s door and he’s going to need to answer it right away because we’re going to need that type of play absolutely when the chips are down and the games matter and that’s exactly why the New York Knicks are signing Shake Milton to a contract that’s exactly why they’re

Signing him to the rest of the season for this roster because they know what they need without a doubt they know what they need and they know how to get it at a very cheap addition Leon Rose it’s hard to say but you don’t miss you’re

Not missing this year OG pre boan Bach donovic Alec Burks great contract to Miles McBride and now you sign Shake Milton a player that we absolutely without question needed and you got him for us you signed him you gave us him in the moment that we needed him the most

You know what that makes Leon clutch and not clutch Sports clutch for the Knicks because when we need something when we need to build right when we need to get this team on the right course Leon Rose who so many people didn’t believe in myself included shut everybody up has made the Right

Moves and has made this team into a legit Contender and he has an opportunity to make this team even better come this off season we have never had a team stacked this much in terms of talent and in terms of picks and in terms of assets ever before than

We have right now with Leon Rose Leon the dawn is absolutely real because this man has helped this Knicks team go all the way up into a legit contender in the Eastern Conference and for that Leon I cannot thank you enough I know Nick fans love what you’ve done everybody in New

York whether they rocked with you or didn’t before they’re rocking with you now we see exactly what you’ve done we see the impact that you’ve had and I know we’ve been patient for a long time I’ve been critical of that be patient all you want I’m not going to be

Critical I’m going to smile and I’m GNA wait because I know Leon Rose is going to help this Nick team get to the next level so I’m not worried about it anymore I’m just happy smiling and waiting to see the moves happen Shake was a move it was absolutely a move a

Move that maybe flew pass some of your guys’ head cuz maybe you’re thinking Shake is not the player that Nick should have gotten check out Shake’s highlights his mixtape and then come back to me shake is what we needed to an extent for this roster Leon Rose got him for a

Bargain nothing to complain about there but what about you guys what do you think about the New York Knicks adding shake for the rest of the season let me know in the comments Below guys because honestly I would love to hear from you but that’s going to do it for this

Episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go ahead and smash that like button leave a comment below and of course guys please subscribe to the channel until next time Nick fans peace

The New York Knicks are dealing with tough schedule amid a rash of injuries that looks like it may take them completely out of the playoff standings. The Knicks needed to address the situation in the best possible way and Leon Rose & the Knicks did just that. New York has announced that they will sign Shake Milton, who was recently bought out from Detroit, once he clears waivers. The Knicks needed more backcourt depth with Alec Burks and Miles McBride struggling. Jalen Brunson dealing with injuries and being a league leader in minutes played was also a big read the Knicks wanted to shake things up a bit and add more backcourt relief. With the injuries to New York, Shake could end up playing big minutes early on into his Knick career. Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!
