People talking about the Knicks like they won when actually the Wolves won by getting Donte and Randle.
Wolves managed to get rid of their biggest problem, on the court and financially, and somehow got something in return that should help them now and in the future.
The Knicks didn't want Randle taking away key Shots form their current key players. I somehow think Towns won't be taking nearly as many shots as he might have in many situations moving forward as he might have previous.
Now Towns doesn't have Gobert to do all the dirty work for him.
Knicks franchise is terrible and still won't win championship
The "Nova Knicks" just died
Let's Go 👋👋👋👋👋
KAT PLAYED OUT OF POSITION THE LAST 2 YEARS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE TEAM .. IN GOTHAM .. HE GIVES THE KNICKS THE BEST STARTING 5 IN THE NBA .. AND MAKES THE KNICKS SERIOUS NBA 🏀 CHAMPIONSHIP 🏆 CONTENDERS .. WIN WIN TRADE FOR BOTH TEAMS ..
I can't be the only one who was made speechless by the trade, right? Why would the Timberwolves trade away their franchise star player? Especially after he got the team to the Western Conference Finals last season.
NY are looking to avoid any future Randle problems. Towns is an upgrade from Randle, but the unfortunate casualty in order to make this happen was Dante. But Bridges is an upgrade from Dante. So they look to be in good shape this coming season.
Financial? Julius, Ant, with Rudy, DV from three. Timberwolves will be a problem! Low key… I believe they won the trade. Bully ball from here on. Everyone can stretch the floor. Julius is amazing (the NY fanbase sucks). I see no real drop off for the Timberwolves and I disagree that this is just a temporary move.
KAT not made for NYC. He gonna crumble
wtf Knicks have been smart with rebuild kat and randle is a wash losing donte I don't know something tells me randles shoulder injury is suspect
For the sad to see don't leave fans…….deuce gets his minutes and kolek will shine in his minutes
What in the flip
I love Randle and Dante! But I’ve seen the light 💡 In Leon we trust!
I like the trade. I just hate to include Divo.
We all knew the Knicks wanted Towns. Leon Rose effect
KAT is ranked at the 87 percentile in the league defensively
Knicks haters will always hate. They hated the Brunson trade, hated the OG trade, hated the Bridges trade. What is new ?
I am not surprised Randle was out of New York 😂
Oh my gosh. The knicks are stupid
Towns would be top dawg big man IF HE WOULD ACTUALLY PLAY LIKE A BIG MAN. Get yo a$$ away from the perimeter
I hope Randle ball out!!!💯💯
