Kareem Austin Rosales what’s going on we we are up on the Facebook as well salute to everybody on the lunchtime grind beautiful day out here in New York and just kind of had to hit the reset button get some rest and recalibrate the the gauges if you will had a busy day yesterday man did five shows yesterday man so between the the the Marx show with with uh World worldwide w JD then we did uh we did Pix 11 we did Fox 5 we did the ogan anobi reaction show then we did the draft show so it was a busy day man but Today’s Show I wanted to come back on and and now that the dust is settled a little bit at least on round one let’s just talk about what the Knicks did here and why they did it most importantly so uh coming in at number 25 they drafted pacome daret out of France and obviously that was the big joke of last night as the Knicks continuing to their tradition tradition of drafting French players but this guy seems to have some promise according to uh some of the draft experts analysts and Scouts and I did receive some scouting reports from a couple of people that I that I want to identify and thank and also we’re going to go more in depth on Pac home. yet tonight at 9:30 when our guy David Xenon joins the show we’re going to cover the entire Nicks draft between what they did in round one and drafting him and then what they do tonight in round two so David Xenon is going to uh come on and join us as well man um but real quick so they had the 24th pick they um took that pick and traded it down to the Wizards in exchange for number 26 and remember I had brought up the graphic from Bobby marks that talked about the um the salary range for each pick and at 24 it was about $2.8 million and so you know they were able to move that and ultimately move that pick 26 pick to the OKC Thunder for several second round picks and that allowed the Knicks to save about three million now with the 25th pick again they picked um pacome diet out of France but he’s recently played out of Germany in rashio farm om in Germany this was the same um team that uh that Killian Hayes had played with so you know yeah you have a number of people who say look he’s a 6869 Wing lots of potential started playing pro at at uh 16 and a lot of people say he number one is his scoring pop is there right now even though sample size is more sample size is needed and you know defensively they’re saying he’s a bit of a working progress needs to work on his defensive awareness his decision- making sometimes falls into lapses things of that nature so you know that was you know the short end shout scouting report but a lot of people think this guy’s got a lot of potential so don’t sleep on this pick and with the Knicks and their ability to find some Diamonds in the Rough late in in round since this Leon Rose and his regime has been here I’m going to go with them man I’m going to go with with what they see here in Walt per with wal perin and clearly the Knicks had some eyes on the international scene so could job by them and maybe just maybe they have a uh another diamond in the rof now the question is is he going to be a draft and stash pick or is he going to come up to the main ball club now if you let him tell it he’s saying Hey listen I’m here I’m I’m playing I’m not going back let’s listen to a couple of sound bites from uh diet as he met with the media after being drafted with the 25th pick man here here is Diet this is courtesy of SNY videos let’s see what he’s got to say here salutes to everybody in the chat like what it describe your game and then when you kind of just look at the makeup of this team how do you see yourself fitting into what the Knicks are trying to do yeah so I think I’m really versatile but I can also bring um like what a rookie needs to bring in a team so bring some energy like being able to grab a rebound push the ball but also knock down shots so I think it’s very important for rookie to bring like those things all right so you know says he he’s confident in his ability to knock down shots he’s versatile and he’s ready to bring some energy you know TP typical rookie speak here he said that he hadn’t met tibs but has seen tibs on TV talked about Kevin Durant being one of his his uh favorite players um this was his comment on being a potential draft and stash pick here it is do you plan on taking more time in in Europe up no I’m I’m planning on playing here in the so he said listen uh I plan on playing here I plan on playing here and I’m trying to get I got a scout who wants to come on right now and talk a little bit more about D yet so just hang on let me get this guy a zoom link and get this guy in here we We are booking guests live on the show hit the like button hit the share button subscribe to the channel man we’re getting it pop right now another day in the Nick off season and uh yeah man Nick’s uh second round will kick off tonight at 400 p.m. Nicks have the 38th pick and 51 so let’s see where they go there because you know based on how they need to fill out the rest of this rotation they may be looking at one or two of these second round picks as a uh you know potential roster rostered player here because of where they are financially and the reason why the savings of the 3 million was so significant is because it seems like the Knicks are trying to get ihart back here by any means necessary they are trying their best to clear off salary to get IH hard in here so that the three M million of savings can help in addition to they still got to make moves in addition to potentially trading Mitch or potentially being able to add more outgoing salary in the Macau Bridges trade so that is why the Knicks punted on 24 ultimately punted on 26 to get that cost savings because they want to try to get ihart back in here man and hey rightfully so I would love to see ihart stay but what I think it’s ultimately going to come down to is the Nicks trying to get close to that number remember his max is 4 years 72 they’re going to try to get close to that number and then say to ihart hey do you want to come back and and do something special or does iart go out there and get the bag could he get it from Orlando could he get it from the OKC Thunder it’s going I think it’s going to it’s ultimately the ball is going to be in IH heart’s Court to say say does he want to take less money for longer years or does he want to go out there and get the bag for his family you know I think he seems like a guy he he was on record saying hey if the money’s equal if the money’s equal he’d stay he seems like a guy that that you know that that should be good for him man you want to stay in New York you want to go to Orlando and be rich you want to be rich in Orlando OKC you want to build something special with the Nova boys and Julius and those guys so the iheard situation is uh is not over the iHeart is situation is not over I think we will find out more as the days go by remember today’s going to be the second round and then free agency essentially starts Friday uh Sunday this Sunday the 30th at 6 PM so the free agency show will be going down then make sure you guys are tapping in back here at Nicks fan TV number one show for the fans by the fans so we’ll find out a lot more between now and then but if you look at some of the competition neither Orlando uh or the Thunder picked up a center in the draft yesterday so who knows who who who knows there and I’m just waiting on my scouting guest my scouting guest is going to come in here we’re booking guest live here people we We are booking guest live hang on one second let me get it to my guy I just sent it to him s so to everybody in the chat once again uh call in 657 3831 159 or you can hit the kfv Discord shout out to my two Cy says after everyone was uh bitching for ages we need a wing Leon L’s OG Bridges and a 69 18-year-old who plays D and shot 44 from three since January 1st Leon working his magic yeah absolutely absolutely man okay somebody said check out what Fred cats just said let me check Fred Catz here and see what Fred cats is saying okay this is article about Boston he says uh he confirmed the McBride um surgery what what else are we talking about with cats har some more on cats his breakdown of the second round picks that the Knicks got this is what you’re talking about I mean I could pull that up I I didn’t see anything else but this is what um cats wrote in terms of the second round picks uh from OKC they got 2025 the most favorable out of uh the Boston or Memphis pick the 2026 Golden State pick the 2027 Minnesota pick and then in 2027 2027 second most favorable out of OKC Houston Miami Indie and 2027 third most favorable so I mean this is all um you know down the road but again they wanted to get the cash savings in hopes uh to to get some more wiggle room and maybe to bring ihar back man what what do we think about this shout out to Ryan Courtright $50 Super Chat says I want everyone to show my boy CP the he said franchise he left the $50 bag but it’s franchise no R he says uh uh I want to show him love for always keeping us updated with everything all Nicks appreciate everything you guys do this is a season we show our dominance in the Eastern Conference we here salute to Ryan man appreciate the support just no r on the name just for the fans by the fans very easy right fanchise fanchise F so our scouting guest is is on the way and so I was trying to coordinate with him very last minute to get him on uh so that’s why I was a little bit disjointed here but hopefully you guys are still with us and rocking with us and uh and and we are here with the show salute to everybody once again on the Facebook let me dial into the phones and and take some calls I see some callers on the line so hang tight let me get to the phones as well welcome to Blog Talk Radio next drafting pacm diet out of France man so we just breaking that whole thing down and we’ll have a scouting report on him in just a few seconds and while we wait on our guest I’m going to get some some calls in here okay uh your show will go live in salute to everybody in the chat Sal to everybody on the grind okay let’s get to some callers uh 917 what’s your name where you calling in from 917 hello yes hello oh you hear me I don’t care you got to get off the speaker phone or come closer to come closer to the phone man yeah what’s up what’s up CP how you doing bro I’m all right I’m all right this is Mike from Brooklyn man you remember I called you I told you that Leon was gonna get the bridges thing done man yep yep yep he finally did man that was great you said how he’s gonna do without Randle it’s not happening yeah but we got that out the way you you don’t trust Leon get IH heart back they’re working on it you know and and if anybody can do it it’s Leon and Brock H man so while while the reports were out there that it it is unlikely clearly they are uh you know enacting a couple of cross cutting measures here to see if they can and then I think ultimately it will come down to uh ihe heart’s decision is he going to go out there and take what many think will be a larger deal in in terms of you know annual average or is he going to go out there and take what take what the Knicks are able to give him and be part of something special because I think iHeart with this group would be uh really cool to see man yeah I think I think we get to keep him in we’ll keep Mitch yeah the way Leon’s been working I think we keep both of them you think it’s possible or you don’t think I think it’s possible man they just there’s work that needs to be done there’s work that needs to be done and and if they do keep him and Mitch I mean they’re pretty much all in you without getting into the minutia of the Cal they’re pretty much going to be at the second apron so that’s it that’s gonna be the squad for the most part one last question yeah one last question I I I I I love that OG came back but I think we overpaid he got the highest paid he’s the highest paid player on the team okay I think now how how does Brunson sign that extension this summer knowing that OG is getting all that money yeah I mean some make less than OG some people wanted to see uh you know OG make that sacrifice that Brunson appears to be making I mean Brunson didn’t sign his deal yet so you know not out of the woods yet we’re just going to have to see how it plays out and see where JP is at with things man you know what I mean appreciate the call man yeah all right CP all right man it’s Mike from Brooklyn okay let me bring in my guest man and and appreciate you for coming in last minute he is um the director of European Scouting For net Scouts basketball a certified Scout and and a Knicks fan man Simeon marinov in the building Simeon how you feeling man hey what’s up CP I’m um extremely happy about uh about uh coming to to your show and talk more about pomier one of the one of the many frenches uh coming to this draft uh getting drafted it’s a real honor and actually big kudos to you and uh your team about uh what you’ve been doing with with the Channel with the podcast I’ve been following you actually from from the beginning let’s say from the first rough years and uh let’s say that that podcast is a perfect example how how the fan bases can um can grow something um within within the fence and uh and go beyond uh Beyond on that you know because uh exactly the the podcast went Way Beyond U only only Nick’s Channel you know yeah absolutely man no I I definitely appreciate you for tapping in and uh me and you correspond a lot via Instagram and and you definitely keep me up breast of what’s happening in Europe and along your travel so tell us a little bit about uh pacome diet you know when the Knicks drafted him yesterday a lot of us weren’t familiar with his game uh let us know you know what what your takeaways are from him yeah kind of that’s that’s a you know that’s a typical thing uh for many of these Europeans coming to New York City and at the beginning they they kind of get the Boo get the you know more of the uncertainties but at the end of the day yeah Paka da is a well-known Prospect uh uh in Europe uh um for for you know especially for the international NBA Scouts he’s a well-known Prospect uh because he’s been he’s been playing at the at the best Youth Level uh for quite a long quite long and uh he’s been he’s been with rasio farm with the German uh with the German team for for this past uh two two seasons so he went there where uh you know uh guys like Jeremy saan k um Haun their HT their craft haunt their skills and actually the agent of um the agent of Paka da is kilan a agent too so uh kudos to him as well Yan baliku um so uh what should we know about Pak I think uh he addresses the the wing de the the lack of wing that for for so many years um at at the Knicks um and especially at six at 68 um he has great size for 3-2 guy um actually he started last season uh playing at four position which was kind of unusual position for him but that was because mainly because of injuries within the team and um down the lane you know he he’s been playing more more as a thre man which I expect is going to be his position on on the knck squad he’s a gifted scorer from all three levels kind of promis has promising all around skill set great versatility and and actually a natural mid-range shooter which is not the you know uh nowadays it’s all about shooting riging trees from outside but uh yeah to have a mid-range shooter is another thing and um actually the the room for improvement um in his game for sure is going to be uh keep horing his stroke from outside and uh uh he needs to polish his defensive presence because he’s kind of up and down over there but reportedly he’s been he’s been working a a lot on that uh uh in in the past season at and at the end of the day he’s been playing for man’s team you know uh that’s totally different from playing college basketball different speed different strength different athleticism for sure uh but you’re playing again grown man so you need to take into account all of that uh details you know why why do you think you know based on him still kind of being a raw talent what do you think the motivation was for him to to leave where he was uh which seemed like a good place for him to develop and try to make it into the league now yeah actually he his situation at and situation of Zachary R I think um those two situations were kind of different because uh Pak didn’t get many you know he didn’t have any drone place for him and things of that nature he was a man in the system uh he was a guy that respects the team and uh plays within the system so that’s another thing uh which I would highlight that he’s very coachable quiet guy a quick learner but I think actually maybe getting some some minutes going to be the big question is he going to be able to get any minutes uh based on the based on the roster after the addition of Mel Bridges and actually after OG if we you know if the team keeps OG then you know you’re going to have two wings for sure and yeah maybe he can he can get some minutes off the bench but it depends of course it Tak it comes down to Tom Tio’s decision and we know uh what’s his mindset about uh you know the rotation and sticking to um you know so it depends it depends I think uh especially with Pak athletically physically he’s ready he’s ready to to take the next step and I don’t I don’t see him as a stash pick to be honest with you I don’t see him yeah I think he either go to you know to the G League or be you know and and at the same time be be on the bench things of that nature but it’s going to be up to him and up to the Tom tibo Vision you know well once again so to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up button for your boys CP the franchise here next offseason Central uh lunchtime edition of the show I’m here with uh fellow Nicks fan and one of our own man Simeon marinov he’s the director of European scouting at net Scouts basketball we were talking about the Knicks first round pick at number 25 selection pacome diet so so you think you know he’s definitely doesn’t need to be a draft in stash could potentially get some time in Westchester I would have to believe that would be the case but so what do you think you know his strongest suit is it his shooting touch right now shooting and cutting I’ll say he’s a great cutter he knows how to play off the ball which is a great thing when you are you know surrounded by uh by you know big fishes and guys that can take care of the ball but at the same time he can he can put the ball on the floor he can bring the ball up the floor as well if if that’s needed so he’s kind of to me he’s intriguing intriguing Prospect because I think he has upside I think he has upside and he could be an allaround player it depends of course on the role uh it depends of course on the um you know on the team and the structure and construction and everything about the roster but uh I definitely see him as a as a guy that is able to to play a role on an NBA team you know because he can he can knock down open shots as well but he can create he can create uh for himself and he can create for uh for the others it’s a little bit difficult to translate all these skill set um especially from a European Prospect because um many of these prospects they play on man’s teams yeah and they have different roles and it’s it’s very you know it’s kind of tricky it’s kind of tricky to to translate all the skills and all the positions you know all these things yeah no understood understood man as you said the roles could be different he’s playing in a men’s league you have other players on that team that are being prioritized or with or maybe the offense is running through them but seems like as a supporting role he’s done okay especially in the offensive end but you know defense is is where he’s he’s going to have to step it up but hey 18 years old young Prospect I I trust this Nick scouting team and play development staff to to get it done maybe he’s here maybe he’s in Westchester let’s just see how things play out things are very very it’s very early in the process right now especially when it comes to Nick Ross for sure it’s early and you see from uh from physical standpoint from athletic standpoint he’s there you know has vertical you know 36 U um 36 Ines which is pretty good and kind of bouncy guy forid athlete yeah he’s there I think what is do you think based on you know the prospects you saw and and uh the draft do you think he was drafted at air Fair spot I would say so I would say so but as I mentioned to you in in the text messages that we’ve been exchanging uh he kind of went um you know uh a little bit as a underrated Prospect especially at the beginning of the Season uh based on most of the mock drafts and uh and other other lets um and that was basically heavily um thanks to the lack of uh a lack of exposure during the the past summer because he he didn’t play at uh fber UT events there was a World Cup under 19 uh where for example one one guy like Melvin ainsa another French Prospect kind of had a breakout performance so uh but that was due to to having minor injuries you know he had minor injuries and he needed to to fully recover from from this injury uh so he was F following uh you know uh his protocols and that’s why you know uh you saw like he trusted the process and when it matters the most uh he he he delivers you know he delivered during the season and he played uh um you know well all right yeah sounds good man listen man definitely um appreciate the time and and uh for jumping on at spare of the moment definitely appreciate it uh any any final thoughts on the Knicks man before we wrap hey it’s G to be I’m excited to to see how far they they can go you know especially Mikel Bridges I I like him a lot in terms of U in terms of skill set in terms of game everything and I think for for many years these Nicks they they didn’t they they haven’t had any Wings you know uh such Wing depth I think it’s going to be vital especially going against Boston Squad but isenstein um abson going to be felt out would say yeah but let’s see let’s see you know because yeah yeah not not out of the woods uh just yet man but listen man like I said definitely appreciate the time um let the people know where they can find you man yeah you can find me on Twitter uh on Twitter Simeon marinov uh you can find me also on Instagram Simon marinov scouting it’s written like the actually like the high school of Derek Rose which is Simeon y so yeah um do me a favor if on this social media yeah Instagram and Twitter if you have the um if you have the YouTube chat open just drop your links in there for me you mind doing that uh yeah I can okay appreciate it man appreciate it all right man appreciate the time man definitely let’s connect again appreciate the talk yeah thanks for having me

Report man impromptu Scouting Report he’s director European Scout man so that’s what we do we we get you the answers that we don’t have ourselves sounds like a kid with some promise obviously needs work based on all accounts but has some potential let’s see how it works out obviously he’s not a necessity right now but we’ll see what he turns into and we’ll have more on uh pacome diet tonight my guy David Xenon is coming through man we’re going to talk about the draft the entire Nick’s draft he’s going to give you his thoughts on daret and we’re going to talk about some of the guys that he’s working with man because some of the guys that he’s working with have definitely um shown some some shot Improvement so Dave Z the shooting doctor is getting his guys right we’re going to talk to him about quite a few things so uh just to summarize everything that we’ve been talking about here the ihart situation is still fluid not out of the woods just yet I think the Knicks right now are trying to shuffle some decks make some moves to get iHeart the bag they’re trying to get iHeart his his money and I I think what it’ll come down to is ultimately it’s going to be in IH heart’s Court to say I’m sticking with the band or I’m taking the cake I’m taking the cash what’s ihart going to do man let us know your thoughts and uh we’ll comment on it I see some people on the phones we’re going to get to that shout out to Supernatural Inc official just joined the franchise channel members we appreciate you definitely appreciate you man salute to everybody uh who was here last night and today for the 880,000 subscriber celebration man 880,000 subscriber celebration definitely proud of that and happy that uh happy that we hit that Mark so so salute to everybody who’s been a part of it salute to everybody who’s been supporting us and we’re going to continue to do great things man only the beginning for Nicks fan TV in other news the deuce went under the Knife Man miles McBride let me fix my screen up man jumbo Chon’s looking kind of crazy um miles McBride had toe surgery at some point you know I don’t know if it was the last week or what but uh yeah ni ni PR has announced that McBride uh underwent successful toe surgery on his on his right fifth toe and there’s our guy Deuce speaking speaking to the UTS at a basketball camp and in crutches so uh miles McBride went under the knife clearly he was dealing with something as they all are once you get to you know the April May time and so that’s the update there I’m sure he’ll be fine and he’ll be ready to go by training camp oh okay okay I see what you guys are saying here with with um with Fred Katz okay hang on hang on we might hang on here I see what you guys are saying here Fred cat saying that the Knicks have searched for ways to add extra salary to complete the maau bridges trade and previously discussed potentially adding miles McBride to the deal the team discussed the possibility of including miles McBride in the bridges trade and not because they are itching the trade away uh McBride at 23 which is only 13 million over the next three years it’s it’s math if they wanted to the Knicks could find a third team to Route McBride to acquire a future first round pick in the process and avoid the first apron hard cap his salary plus banovich would uh would barely top Bridges but they have since shied away from that scenario okay false alarm false alarm almost tra had to on the table but then they they step back okay it’s part of it man got to have different scenarios in order but overall like I said the the IH hard thing is not over just yet and here was Ian Begley on last night’s Honda Sports night uh breaking it all down this is courtesy of s let me get to Ian Begley on the iHeart situation Ian my wife is jealous of all the quality time we’ve been spending together go here in New York you saw the Knicks vision for a while that it doesn’t look good for the Knicks to keep Isaiah hartenstein what’s the latest on that front after all this wheeling and dealing in the last 24 hours you know the Knicks could be hard capped at the first apron and in the NBA that’s $178 million and that would mean they can’t go above that in team salary that scenario they would have a really hard time bringing hartenstein back cuz they couldn’t even get to his max number of 16 million in year one but tonight in the draft they essentially shed $3 million by trading out of the first round and then drafting a player that could be a draft in stash and so that gives them some wiggle room if they can alter the male Bridges trade and send out a little more money they can avoid that first apron hard cap and they would have enough money to offer hartenstein that max deal but he can still get a lot more from other Shooters on the open market and those big offers are expected come Sunday 6: p.m. so if that happens hartenstein would have to choose less money to stay here in New York April all right so there you have it they’re trying to add some more money to the Macau Bridges deal to maybe get iHeart the offer not the it’s not to say that he’s going to take it we don’t know or maybe they they find a team to take MCH so things are still fluid and uh yeah not over man not over Richard Baptist uh what what is he crying about it was never over you said it was over CP nope never said that never said that never said that I sh the report that it was unlikely by W and and uh Ian but I said anything’s possible and right now Leon Rose and Company are making it or trying to make it a possibility so let’s see what happens there okay couple more phone calls before we wrap 813 what’s your name where you calling in from Rambo from Tampa Rambo let’s go I had a call in this time let’s

um I think what we got to do is we got to trust Leon Rose we gotta trust the Nicks front office because I think they know what they’re doing and I think if we just wait long enough I think we might get back hartstein okay we might um we might get a new center who knows right yeah but what we just got to do is trust um I think the male deal was out of the blue right but it was something that was it was a great deal um and it really shows that we’re really trying to contend right drafting random French player it’s it’s because Leon doesn’t want to pay right M so we don’t need anyone to really play minutes that’s a rookie which is why um we’re just trying to win the chip we’re trying to contend okay and that’s why I’m TR Leon rose right now okay appreciate the call man this guy got faith gotta have faith 848 what’s your name where you calling in from Nick calling in from Jersey how you doing bro uh I would have liked to seen khil air fall to us last night I think he would have been the fit if hardstein doesn’t come back to us we’re going to need a big yeah I don’t necessarily love the rumors about go go baz I don’t know how that fits for us you know he doesn’t play much could he be the next hardenstein where you find a guy who’s 24 years old and you get two years out of him and then you get a good contract maybe not sure but I think that we’re right in position man I do I love the OG contract with the injuries not necessarily but we I think people have said this we’re in a position to overpay yeah we’ve never been in a position to over over pay it’s okay to overpay I’m not worried about middle schoolers in 2029 2031 for the the bridges trade right you can’t you really can’t and if those turn out to be number ones and we win a chip I I could I’ll sleep at night very happily yeah I’m with you man good call man thank you brother keep catch up yeah man call back anytime my guy really tried to get Deuce out of here for Kyle Lowry that was a man bro doc on the Discord go ahead doc doc hello hello you hear me yes sir loud and clear sir all right Adrian from Connecticut I had to pull over I’m here driving for Amazon I already know I got to tap in with y’all everybody give a like give a subscribe to the boys you already know they be doing that thing um I don’t even know what that last dude was talking about talking about Kyle Lowry like Duce McBride finally like when nobody expected him to be basically the second IQ after IQ de is hoping man I’m trying to see trying to see a little more right now man absolutely I think that he can develop into a player that could potentially be be able to make those smart basketball decisions run a secondary unit if we give him the time but to talk about the big question which is the center position like I think part Stein like I think a lot of people gota like you’ve been saying it all season not everybody’s gonna come along for the ride with us as much as I love hardenstein and I love the player he’s become on the New York Knicks people forgetting that hardenstein we was asking people to people were were were raving for this guy to get traded at one point I think that bring somebody in yeah very early but I’d say that to say that not not the not the downplay hardstein does for the team but I’m saying that I think that what we can do with another Center potentially if we lose hardenstein we shouldn’t be getting all up in arms if we do to lose someone that’s a a beloved Nick right now you feel me I think that it’s a very emotional situation um it was very similar with IQ and RJ trade and just letting people go but like we got to look at it objectively we’re here to win a championship we’ve been in the dark for too long let’s do what we have to do instead of doing what we want to do you know what I’m saying and that’s all I wanted to do gra fire I appreciate you guys appreciate it man appreciate the call Doc Su to all my drivers man doc out there representing his Amazon suit to my Uber drivers my MTA workers man my truck drivers taxi drivers every everybody out there on the road listening uh to the show man salute to you guys I like ihearts fit with the team I I’ve said that for a while I would love to see him stay here I think they it’s better balanced with the guys that you have right now with iHeart even if you didn’t have the guys that you have right now I just think the offense is way uh it’s better balance if they’re able to keep iHeart and Mitch that would be a home run but if you lose one of these guys it becomes tricky like the the center position could be that area of weakness because as you invest in bridges and OG and Brunson and and whoever else it’s going to be harder to to Really balance things out that’s why I thought they were going to go to Center last night but just as you said maybe I don’t know how where they rank these centers on their draft board but there seem to be a run on centers at right after the lottery 15 to Miami was KH khil where um you had uh Darren Don Holmes go to Denver evees Missy went to the Pelicans so it just seemed like you know a lot of those names that we heard about were starting to come off the board way before the Knicks got there and maybe that’s why they made the decision I don’t I don’t know where they had those guys on their list Christopher Blake let’s go yo CP salute how you doing man man rough rough rough I feel bad now because I had to carry it across and now everybody you know coming around about losing hartstein I feel bad I didn’t want to do that to him Christopher Blake wants his flowers man just rip that bandaid off here the thing yeah I’ll be honest when I look at the matchups and I’m saying who we bang up against the East I think Mitch might be a little bit more important for us from a defensive standpoint I love ihearts fit offensively but he got bullied by embiid he got bullied by Turner MH the year before Mitch was able to bully Allan and um what’s his name um my four over there in C clev I can’t remember now mo mo mo mo don’t forget what Mitch does for us yeah no no there no slide on Mitch Mitch is a beast now I I just I’m just saying balance-wise look I would love to have both that would be great for me but balance wise I think ihart kind of balances things a little bit better for this team but Mitch is no slouch at all 100% but there’s a name out there that’s still ailable in the second round that I want Nick’s fans to kind of get a hand around looking at because I think he adds an even greater Dimension offensively to what the four five position can bring and ask filipowski out of Duke yeah a lot of people was giv me trouble and say he got bullied he’s he second round that is a hell of a steal he reminds me of Mitch a little bit and how you know nobody really wanted to draft Mitch but give him a chance to you put him on the program he’s tough yeah he’s tough defensively he’s versatile offensively and he gives you of a difference look at that five position especially as a second rounder yeah I think that’s where we should probably look to go okay preciate the call man man appreciate you CP holl at you later appreciate the call man tap in later 9:30 David z9 coming through Zade from Maryland go ahead you’re next y can you hear me glad and clear man how you feeling today bro doing good I’m doing good hey man shout out to you man I know your computer is hot you been doing back to back lives backto back content man hey man we we just here the offseason is cooking we got to you know assemble the family man and and get to it thanks for thanks for putting out content for the people man def holding it down for us Nicks fans so um I’m gonna keep it short and simple man no problem I would I would love iHeart IH Hearts is a good piece we never really were struggling with offense our biggest thing and our biggest I think challenge or I think what can get us over the hump is if there was any way we can keep both iHeart and Mitch and if we have to trade one that’s a tough one man but we I don’t see that happening because they would have drafted a center in in the draft Yeah so I think they have something else cooking we just not we don’t see it yet so we probably got to wait if anything they may trade Mitch but I would think they would want to bring in another Center precious is not a center I don’t know why people keep trying to recommend precious as the backup he’s more of a power forward I think when we did have him playing Center it wasn’t it was okay but it was like more small ball um so I don’t know we’ll see but our whole thing was the two Twin Towers of having iHeart and then Mitch coming off the bench is just like makes makes us definitely contenders so if there’s any way they can keep both of them great yeah aside of that man I’m liking I’m liking the Macau Bridges I don’t y’all need to be careful man don’t worry about what all the The Outsider say because at one point Bridges was a a a great young Allstar up and coming Allstar now that he’s with the Knicks oh you paid so much for a role player so it’s just like don’t worry about the outside noise man focus on what we got and what we we got cooking and we got a lot cooking and it’s all off chemistry it’s all off chemistry and consistency shout out to Leon shout out to Dolan y people don’t like giv Dolan the respect now when when when we were we were blaming yeah now now you don’t hear about him now now he’s not the uh the most terrible owner in all the sports exactly it’s just so quiet right now that now that things are going well it’s just like oh whatever so we got to give Doan his the respect to say all right he found the right guy on the keys y for getting the right guy giving Leon the keys he’s done his work and you know a lot of people were kind of getting ready to get Leon out the out the building because of after two years uh just because we couldn’t get anybody in the building but that was just yo we got they they had to clean up that dirty stigma of the Nick’s front office now that they got that clean people going to be running here and it’s too late we already got our Squad we got a Squad that’s locked down for years a young Squad they all already got chemistry they already ready to go they already know what is needed OG bringing OG back he know what’s up there’s only one reason OG is coming back it’s because he saw what was cooking last year and he loves it he wants to be a part of it so we got a good squad don’t don’t get twisted with all of The Outsiders don’t don’t get crazy on it we just got to bring everybody in house but I do want iHeart back yeah but for the right price and I think I think iHeart would be willing to come back for a low price just a shorter contract if he knows it’s going to lead to a championship or at least the efforts the only thing man and I’m sorry I’m taking you up but only the only thing I would say is the one piece is never the the one piece to get to the championship so some people are measuring the uh the the the trade as oh is he going to help us win a championship that’s not the right right way to look at it yeah right it’s a collective of pieces we all we have to do is get to the playoffs once we get to the playoffs it’s anyone’s game and it’s all about depth and role players and you know yeah the allst stars are going to get us there the role players and the depth is gonna what’s going to take us over the top so great we got a good squad we just got to get behind it and and let’s go that’s all I got to say there you go man appreciate the call man Z from Maryland rate that call in the chat man I see a lot of you guys see a lot of fives in there one being trash five being facts what do you guys think uh Z from Maryland’s call man good call definitely a good call shout out to Randy Johnson franchise Channel member 3 months says keep iHeart by any means he can make endorsements in New York and make that up learn a new system when the new when the perfect fit is here that’d be my pitch yeah you know and listen his wife’s a model maybe she wants to stay in New York I don’t know does she want to go to OKC Orlando I don’t know this was a funny meme on uh on Twitter shout out to Dylan Becca and he put up you know that the Jason Tatum fake anything is possible after they won the championship was going viral cuz like it just really didn’t hit but this guy Dylan backer says uh me when wo tweets Isaiah hartenstein intend to sign a 4year 72 million contract with the New York Nicks and he posted the Tatum video it’s a surreal feeling we did it we did it it’s a surreal feeling we did it we did it I thought that was funny man there a funny way funny way to use it but hey let Leon Cook let let Brock ol cook and let’s see how it goes man well I think we will find out more uh by Sunday Sunday night we I think we’ll find out if if iHeart is a Nick or if he heads elsewhere but great show guys appreciate the uh the

  1. Horrible pick and we should have taken Terrance Shannon jr watch. We always find a way to take the wrong player year after year after year

  2. I'm glad they were able to sign OG but I wish he could have taken a page out of other professional athletes book who in the past has taken slightly less in order to help sign other players to win a championship

  3. I loved the idea to see Isaiah in New York his entire career
    But the moves the knicks made feels disrespectful…he shouldn't sign

  4. Forget being special with Julius and the Nova boys. Never turn down money. I-Hart has a family now. Every penny counts. Let’s just move on from the I-Hart talk. Are we forgetting about Mitch? Draft a center and a wing.

  5. No way the kid sees a second in the rotation. Thibs does not roll like that. Be best if he stayed over there for a bit more. It's Westchester for him if he wants to come over now. Looking forward to seeing him this summer.

  6. Keeping it real CP, I was disappointed that you young fellas were trashing and clowning the young Frenchman last night without any real knowledge. Much like how you clowned Precious when we acquired him and the later changed your after he proved what a valuable dogg I told you he was and would be with us. This channel is woefully uneducated when it comes to European players. It reminds me of the clowning that Luca went through when he was drafted. Only when he came in and did work on the league that suddenly he was anointed the new Larry Bird. That prejudice needs to stop. Not everyone is a Frank or Fredrick Weiss. More American players have been busts than the Europeans. Do better CP.

  7. Pacome is not garbage yall call anyone garbage give the boy a chance he seem like he wanna be here and he look like he gone work ‼️

  8. I have a question. I put myself through the misery of listening to Paul Pierce, Keyshawn and Skip with their take on the Knicks. The disrespect is crazy. To what do you attribute the disrespect around the league from the likes of them, Charles Barkley and even Shaquille O’Neal? We’ve been irrelevant for so long why are the Knicks hated on so much from these former players?

  9. Move Robinson with the intentions of signing IHart. After signing IHart, reach out to the Pacers and try to acquire Jalen Smith to be the backup 5. Enough is enough with Robinsons injury issues, it’s time to cut bait with him and get back what you can for him.
