Knicks are in need of a center and Thibs left Taj at the alter?
Never thought I’d see the day
3.3 million to assistant coach player, great deal
Just saw Thibs fall to his knees in a Walmart parking lot
I LOVE LOCKER ROOM PRESENCE!!!! Smart signing!
Hoopgrids legacy points added
Gibble Gobble. Taj still playing
NO TAJ! YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!
Getting payed 3 mill to be a locker room presence is nice
One of my all time favorites still playing, gotta love it.
Bro this might be the most shocked I’ve been all offseason
Peterson impresses me a lot so far. Only issue is the Salaun pick – but if it works this has been a perfect offseason.
Happu for Taj to extend his career this far
Hopefully Taj doesn’t end up making the wrong decision like [Teague](https://youtube.com/shorts/YzH9HRDKQj8?si=4wae5pm8m14Tgjvo)
Taj Gibson is 39. Charles Lee is. . . Also 39 lmao
TIL Taj Gibson was way older than I thought. He got drafted after his Junior year at USC in 09 which I remember. What I didn’t know is he didn’t start college ball until he was already 21. I had no idea this guy was 39. I thought he was like 35.
Well worth the 3.3 million if he actually provides good guidance to Melo/Bridges/Miller/M. Williams
How could Thibs let this happen smh
Great move for us. Love it. It’s like we got Biz back, but if Biz could catch and score and do other stuff than just defense and vibez
Wait Taj Gibson is still in the league?
Reminds me of him on Teague’s podcast when he said how surprised and blessed he is every time he gets a call to get back to a team. Every time I think he is done he gets another contract. Cool shit.
GOAT 3RD STRING CENTER IN NBA HISTORY
HARD HAT LUNCH PAIL
God damn how is he still going
Good to see Taj get another bag after him saying he didn’t know if he would or not on club 520. Taj seems like a good genuine guy & im happy for him.
He’s younger than Bron lol
The last of the Bench Mob…
