Salute all right man Al how you feeling man little disappointed bro little disappointed yeah uh Baltimore came out lackluster today ah bum man B bmore yeah I’m just and then Detroit decided to mess around and find out so Both Detroit and Baltimore Al proved they are not ready for the big show be great though yeah I’m listening uh Ryan Gosling when he has to play Jared gof in the movie on how the Detroit Lions almost made it to the Super Bowl and make the you know the just it’s
Something similar to Friday Night Lights you know there’s no booby miles in this one um yeah that was that was tough man you know with Baltimore I mean they they’re still still committing penalties right now the game’s over the game’s been over lights out at the arena and and they’re still committing foolish
Flowers what are you doing Z flowers we the we don’t need that player of the game what are you doing Z flowers what are you doing with cing your team and then and then in the fourth I mean you know Lamar’s trying to come back and he
Turns into Lamar of old I’m like what’s changed what’s changed I I really wanted the story to be different for Lamar and the Ravens and they came in and left this game the same old same old Ravens for the Lions you know once San Francisco turned the Jets up on them in
The second half they they they got so shook they couldn’t bounce back I didn’t like the uh going forward on Fourth and three there in the fourth quarter that was the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen I’m like yo you take points right there you got to get the points take the
Points ners had way too much Niners had way too much momentum you I don’t see why would you why you would give up you know give a chance to give him a short field if you’re not going for points right there and once they missed that field once they missed the fourth and
Three the game was over game was over oh yeah yeah absolutely man uh anyway back to these nicab bachas Al three and0 on the week including a bounceback win rivalry week and they pass with flying colors bounce back win over the New Jersey swamp dragons and then you had
Them dismantling the Champs by 38 points and then also running away from the Heat in the fourth quarter of uh Saturday’s MAA rival week matchup in the uh in the wake of losing Julius Randle man how do you reflect on this week man solid week for the New York Knicks I
Mean obviously we’re still waiting on the news for Julius Randle when you look at the team as a whole and how they performed this week you got to be thrilled with how they were able to just sweep the entire week they take down the Nets you know that was a close game but
Then not only did they defeat the champ CP but they also defeated the the second place the runner UPS in the Miami Heat who were also in the NBA Finals so good showing for the Knicks and and like when they’re fully healthy what they can do but I’m still worried about Julius
Randle man like I just need to know like I don’t know about you but I’ve been sitting I feel like that SpongeBob Meme with a couple coffee and I’m in the diner just waiting for the News That’s so let’s give him the news let’s give
Him the news I want the news here it is the update on Julius Randall is Julius Randle is out with a dislocated shoulder for tomorrow’s game and Charlotte is according to our guy Fred Catz of the athletic uh still no word on the extent of the injury or a timetable so you
Always had me there for a second as soon as well I mean you know you woke I woke up today and that was the first thing on people’s minds it wasn’t who’s going to the Super Bowl it was any update on Julius Randall and I’ve been getting those DMS I’ve been
Getting those questions texts from this morning straight through until we went on the air today on top of that oh boy oh boy boy the Twitter doctors orthopedists everywhere came out of the Woodworks man I told you this was going to this was not going to Endwell I told
You woke up this morning DMS is flooded yo check out this YouTube breakdown of the Randall shoulder injury check out this this Twitter uh diagram of a laam tear this is what I had to wake up to this morning bro I told you I told you man and this
Was payback for everybody just tweeting and dming you asking you questions decided to just go with the when I saw Bondi do that I was like okay bondie this is just like a low blow any B what bondie do well he was like he was like uh essentially what you were saying but
He threw the graphic in there with with Randall I’m like of course he’s not playing tomorrow’s game we know that that is that’s not news listen man I I came out on Twitter I said listen I’m not watching any videos stop sending me the videos stop sending me the the uh
The diagrams I’m not not watching it I’m not interested when the news comes out of how long he’s going to be out for we’ll say it on this show and we’ll go from there man the the guessing game was was just ridiculous man go get your guy
From the Celtics go get Hower AKA Doogie Hower to go get the evaluation done BR Brian uh Brian in the chat says uh too much Doogie Howser man it was just ridiculous so um here is uh here’s Fred Katz he goes uh t has a few options to start a out forward
Tomorrow with Randall Al could start Hart could go with Grimes or tra to but he’s really shied away from playing Grimes and Dante D chenzel together my guess is he goes hard yeah he’s gonna go hard at the three he’s he’s gonna go hard at the three OG at the
Four and like he says here then stagger both of them so one of them is the backup four you could also go precious backup four if you want to go Twin Towers with precious and uh precious and and and hartenstein precious and Sims but I I think that’ll be a starting
Five yeah I see yeah I just see OG as being that guy he’s the most versatile Defender that we got so I don’t know why you would go in any other direction without OG playing the four yeah Grimes would be interesting I feel like like I get why
He would go with Hart you want your other Defender out there but you need a little bit of offense too like if you want some defense have capable three-point shooting you go that direction I don’t if he’s just looking at grimmes as just someone to have off
The bench and to have some shooting with the bench but that’s another option uh you can’t go Grimes you you need to keep your rebounding principles intact you got to go heart you have to go hard you have to play you know when I when I say
Heart you have to go with your size and quote unquote right because he’s like the biggest of the undersized guards that they have so he can kind of play that tweener you need that plus you need to get those you know keep your rebounding Edge and your experience I I don’t see
Them going three smaller guards with uh with Brunson ddv and Grimes as your big three I think they go hard to me that makes the most sense you go with har and go with OG or does tibs do what he did last season with the second unit
And have Jericho Sims out there with Isaiah hardenstein and the starting unit and just go Twin Towers in that look does you go Twin Towers see the thing is I mean you’re losing a lot of you’re losing a lot of offense here man you’re losing a lot of
Offense and that’s why to me it’s important to start Hart because at least with Hart with OG with Brunson like you still have guys that are going to attack the basket that’s going to keep the the the Knicks offense rolling you can’t get stuck out there on the perimeter and if
You put the two bigs out there like that you’re G to get bogged down in the half court very easily you know what I mean at least at least if you have the Villanova 3 plus OG that’s you still have some Firepower there and guys that
Can move the ball guys that will attack the basket and then like I said with Hart be able to get defensive and offensive boards for sure I know it’s most like go be hard just going through the other variations that we’ve seen in the past and what other I mean I don’t see
Precious starting at the four there’s no shot to Precious I just I just think tibs will either go most likely heart but there are other options that he can go with as well if he wants to W up the offense or if he just wants to go defense heavy oriented and protect the
Rim at all costs yeah for sure um and then you know obviously you have the uh the February trade deadline on February 8th you have the buyout Market does it change how they approach things in terms of targets do they try to use that traded player exception which they have at $5.2
Million do they try to use that and try to uh just bring in a a a player into the roost Oster spot not that many options but certainly a possibility how about Jacob toppen shout out Hector Vasquez in the chat how about Jacob toppen I think Jacob toppen
Could could get a look bring Jacob toppen up that would be hilarious yeah yeah but yeah do it man I mean you got to do whatever you can at all costs at this point Jacob to had a really good night for Westchester yesterday 32 points 30
Some points yeah 32 points so you can give him a look with that second unit and start to work him in I wouldn’t be opposed to that you know his defense is better than his brothers um that’s one way I I feel like if you’re a tips at this point you just
Gota turn over every stone possible to figure out what you have on this roster and to keep yourself afloat um there is the buyout Market but there’s still not that many great options do you or how about this do you go to Brooklyn go ask for Roy O’Neal certainly possible what’s his
Salary structure looking like let me pull it up feel like that’s a deal that Nets could make with the the Nets let’s see Roy O’Neal contract typing it in right now let’s see what we got here he’s got four years 36 million so he’s averaging eight million annually
He’s in the last he’s making nine million this season 9.5 he’ll be an unrestricted free agent at the end of this year interesting okay okay yeah wouldn’t wouldn’t be a bad look C certainly wouldn’t be a bad look Street Sciences Jermaine O’Neal 1,200 in the chat man let’s get those
Likes up hit that like button hit the share button and subscribe to the channel and let’s pull up the schedule here and take a look at at uh how things look you know we don’t know how long he’s going to be out for uh let’s see here all right so if we
Go to tank ofon so we have Charlotte tomorrow you have Utah then you got home six straight at home Utah two against Indiana at home the OB Revenge game against the Lakers Memphis certainly a winnable game you got Luca donic Luka magic and then you finish at Houston at
Orlando before you hit the All-Star break for another week so we do have some winable games here six of the of the the of the nine before the All-Star break are at home then you get a week off for Allstar so you know again don’t know how
Long he’s going to be out for but this stretch right here you hope that they can they can tread some water as they go into the break and and rest up that’s what all that’s all you’re hoping for at this point man yeah what what do you think this offense is
Going to look like I mean do you think we’re just going to go Brunson heavy at this point just Bruns is going to be taking and 30 shots a game yeah that that’s why I think you have to go with hard at the three because you still have
To try to get your easy buckets with heart trying to get you out in transition trying to attack the basket you know that’s one thing with Julius is that you had a guy who was forcing the issue he was getting into the paint he was playmaking out of that he was
Scoring in the paint he was um he was drawing contact he was getting to the free throw line that that’s that’s another big big part of your game that that you’re going to lose so certainly it’ll be Brunson but if you have guys that can continue to
Dribble penetrate like OG like Hart and even Dante where you’re able to move the ball around then you have to be able to generate your three-point looks you’re going to you’re losing a guy who was was commanding double teams and making the offense a lot easier especially in the half court especially
In the half court so so yeah it’s going to be a big loss it doesn’t matter how long he’s going to be out for it’s going to be a big loss man let’s see it’s just are we just GNA focus on this week because it’s Charlotte Utah Indiana I
Mean afterwards you’re gonna have the Lakers you got Memphis you got Dallas you got Indiana Again Houston I mean you got to go all the way up to Orlando that’s when you get to the break yeah and just to repeat again so everybody knows before you get to All-Star break
It is Charlotte Utah Indiana Lakers Memphis Dallas Indiana Houston Orlando so those are the games you’re fa him without Randall the games that stand out to me if he’s out are definitely Utah Lakers yeah and Orlando Orlando yeah because those are those are teams with you know a height Advantage at that
Point don’t get me wrong Indiana speed not I not overly concerned with Indian just because they also play small so you can kind of keep OG out there with se yakum but you’re missing your another 20 point plus score on your team so right you’re gonna have to keep up offensively
But I think that’s more doable with Indiana than everybody else where we you’re lacking hype yeah and you know and wingspan on the court yeah huge void man hu huge void so uh R up Julius man that definitely R up Julius so to everybody in the chat once
Again hit that thumbs up button for your boys CP and Alex on the ones and twos Nicks weekly Nicks did go three and0 on The Campaign which is great you know they they did a good job doing that fourth seed in the East let’s take a
Look at the at the Knick’s record right now and the Hawks Hawks just beat the Raptors by one tonight Pacers beat the uh the Grizzlies all right let’s see what the standings are looking like here let’s take a look at the standing see where we
Are okay for seed in the East right now only a half game up on Cleveland and two and a half up in the Pacers you’re two and a half up in the Pacers you play them twice this week already lost one in the season series so these two this week
Are going to be very important try to separate yourselves from the Pacers a little bit you’re up five they’re up five on the heat and five on the magic right now he and Magic seventh and eighth in the East respectively so this was a big week to to gain some ground or
To to uh to separate a little bit from those guys and they one game back in the Sixers man for third place I know they one game back if you have Randall man oh my God talk about bad timing man they are one game back a third so man Julius we need
You definitely need you get back soon Julius yeah get back soon Julius they are um they they’ve now improved to 10 and 17 versus teams 500 and above good good good job this week and uh and 19 and0 versus teams below 500 19 and0 versus Team below 500 so there you
Go now the only difference is this week I mean you know Lakers are like they’re like one game over fight 00 right now mhm you know so you kind of you have to kind of like take some of that stuff with grain salt like you could look at
This this schedule for the next like nine or 10 games and say like well maybe three of the 10 are against teams below 500 but these are all winable games these these are all winnable games but W without Julius it’s G to make it a little bit tricky I mean it’s
Not like you’re playing Philly Boston you know through this stretch although that’s after the break right yeah I mean you hope Julius is back after the break because those first two games are Philly and Boston right first two games act Philly Boston then then you get Detroit you get
New Orleans Golden State but then you get Cleveland Atlanta Orlando Philly Philly that that goes into by that’s March 12th up to March 12th so yeah by March things things start picking up and then before you know it it’s April and you’re looking at playoffs man there’s not a lot of time
Left there’s really not that much time left what do you guys yeah go Ahad no like with his injury right now I know it’s still up in up in the air but is any part of you thinking about the future of Julius Randall like on this team
Because this is another year like let’s say he doesn’t make the playoffs right let’s say say like it’s the worst case scenario yeah as a front office what do you do in that situation where his contract is about to end after the extension that he signed it’s coming up soon yeah you’re
Gonna have two postseasons let’s say if you let’s say he doesn’t make it to this postseason I was just thinking about it today man like worst case scenario um doesn’t make it to this postseason he did change agent so to me that doesn’t necessarily mean he wants to be off the
Knicks but that means he wants to have someone properly represent him to get to Maxim value because look at this point of his career he’s probably thinking close to 30 I want to get another solid contract because this is probably going to be my last best contract that I’m
Going to get yeah so if you’re the Knicks and you’re thinking about hey we haven’t had you for two playoffs you’re going to go in there with that negotiation tactic saying we haven’t had you for two playoffs fully healthy I’m just saying this worst case scenario
Does that you know think about Julius in a new agent are you worried in that respect because how do you feel or replace somebody like Julius who’s been should be this season still healthy three time Allstar three-time all NBA player does that worry you at all yeah I
Mean you know the fact that he did switch agent certainly should give you calls for concern man you know what I mean um I’m just pulling up his I’m trying to pull up his contract right now salute to everybody in the chat once again hang on one
Second no what’s up my internet we’re still live right yeah we’re still live all right my thing went into my internet went into like dialup right now I’m trying to get trying to get trying to get Sports track up unless dialup does everybody in in the chat know what
Dialup is yeah I don’t know it might have been before before your times um yeah I I want mom get off the phone when when is the player okay here we go I’m trying I’m trying to pull it up but this this website’s been going slow it
Is uh he’s got the player option for 2526 at 29 which you know he’s going to opt out of and he’s going to be looking for northwards of 40 he’s G to be looking for that yeah so but you know they don’t really have to decide that until maybe like
After probably like by like the start of the next season because he still got one plus a player option but TP you know you know as well as I know these discussions start now as getting in preparation for those deals because you’re going to have to have some sort of framework to work
Off of moving forward you got to think about incentives of Allstar numbers think about all NBA numbers like all that’s important that’s why for a guy like Brunson and not necessar being a starter hopefully he does make the All-Star he should make the allstar as Reserve yeah like these are very
Important for their contracts because that’s how they get the extra money you know I think it was with Klay Thompson when he didn’t make all NBA to go get one the the the extra like the super super max right it’s like this this does impact their financial Outlook so all I’m saying is
That he probably was gonna make Allstar this probably ruins a chance of getting that because he’s already injured before the coaches decisions or or votes goes in for the reserves and then you got to think if you’re not make if you’re not making the playoffs like this just gives
The Nicks more leverage to say we don’t have to pay you all that yeah that’s just my thought process forward because it’s G it’s gonna be hard to if he’s going to want more money and he knows his value and the Knicks are going to try to say hey we’re trying to
Save because we’re going to have the hey OG we’re going to have Brun in the future puts him in the driver’s seat yeah man puts him in the driver’s seat man you know and and if I were them might try to do the same thing they did
Last time try to get him on under a Team friendly ad deal and you go from there all I know man is I hope they keep Randle yeah it’s you got him through free you got him as a free agent right they’re not going to trade him right
Need him so hopefully everything is uh is solid man I know it’s in the future we don’t know the results of the M yet but it’s still just thinking ahead a absolutely so uh we we’ll sit and wait there in the meantime I’m putting everybody on mute on Twitter I’m not
Listening to anybody I’m not reading anybody’s uh prognosis diagnosis not interested in that stuff man not interested um how about your boy precious man we are we they want us to talk about youry be careful CP be careful saying that that’s my guy precious because I was
Know I was down on him and the chat’s like I can’t be part of the precious hi not we’re going to be part of the precious Hive okay Precious has been doing a good job pre precious has been doing the damn thing man you know last five games he’s averaging eight points
Uh no eight rebounds six points eight rebounds in in five games and good job by him you know he had 10 against the Heat 10 against the uh the Denver Nuggets and nine against the Nets so damn near had uh you know damn near had 10 rebounds per game
This week man good job by him he’s starting to come around for sure very impactful this week and much needed especially when hartstein went down with the injury right tweaked his ankle and he stepped up man that’s what you want to see from him and it looks like he’s starting to
Understand what Tom Tibido wants from him defensively and especially against the Net game he contributed in a big fashion just offensively but you’re seeing that he’s getting more comfortable in the in this uh in this system I want to see him to be able to continue that moving forward
Because look centered depth man if you can just rely on someone who can be versatile give you some scoring Off the Bench as well that’s a good that’s a good look for the five man yeah but pressure’s been awesome man pressure has been awesome these past three
Games he’s he’s looking good um I I like that you know he keeps us athletic uses his athleticism plays good defense he does play good defense that that’s one thing you could say about him offensively you could be in for a cardiac Affair which is why he fits in
Quite well with his team but but you know he gets boards definitely gets on the boards and defensively I like how he competes out there so that that’s uh that bodess well for the Knicks especially as they continue to have their front Court just be not decimated but definitely impacted by injuries so
You lost Mitch you had hartstein go down for a little bit with the with the Sor killes yeah had Sims go down precious is in now Julius is out but it’s good to have him in there you need another body out there and so um yeah just just
Continue hopefully he continues and he should have an opportunity to to uh continue to at least rebound well because I mean you’re playing Charlotte you have Utah you have Indiana those are all games where he should be able to to uh to to continue to get get after it on the
Boards and and contribute to this team whether it’s as a starter or Off the Bench but I have to think that he’s he’s goingon to continue to come off the bench for this team I think he will continue to come off the bench and we may even see him get some power forward
Minutes which I’m very curious about with the second unit because you know if you go to like most of any basketball like basketball reference or ESPN they list him as a power forward he is 68 ESPN for for height for height I would like to see him play some of the four just
Because versatility man if you can get even if you can get Sims out there to continue to have your Rim protection then you know defensively that fits what Tom tibo’s looking for and then offensively I feel like if you give him some minutes at the four we get
To see a little bit more what he can do outside of just being in the dunker spot you know let’s see him work the pick and roll more let’s see him just get some of those opportunities from uh like high post get him out their Baseline let’s see what he can do man
With The Rock in his hand so I’m looking forward to to some of that while Julius will be out once again Julius Rand out on Monday versus the Hornets and no news yet on the timetable in regards to how long he’s going to be out for no news yet so just
Hang tight and and obviously we I I guess we should hear something by by Monday at the very least so to everybody in the chat once again hit that like button hit the thumbs up button for your boys share these videos share it on Facebook share it on Twitter
And uh yeah man kftv Nick’s weekly on and popping and definitely back tomorrow for uh post game live we got backto backs tomorrow backto backs this week at Charlotte and then home against the Utah Jazz and Charlotte could be could be out a lot of people I think lamelo’s
Questionable they already have uh I think Gord Hayward is out for this game so the Hornets are are going to be short-handed themselves could be a bum night man could be see some of in the chat I’m seeing some of this in the chat do you think it
Was NE I’m I I think it was completely fine for Rand be in the last like four minutes four to five minutes of the game I saw some people questioning whether Rand should have been out there in those those waning minutes yesterday against the Heat yeah I thought it was
Ridiculous to even to even think that it was it was wrong I mean sper had the whole seat starters out there until one minute left in the fourth a 16-point lead with four minutes left is is not insurmountable by any stretch that that’s two threes and now
You and now you’re right back into the game exactly we just saw yeah we just saw the Phoenix Sun just do it over a week ago they were down by like 19 with five minutes left so no I I I don’t look at it like that man that’s not it’s not a tip’s
Fault yeah I was seeing that circle around I was like that that’s that’s a reach for me because we know 20o leads in this game especially today with the high scoring that’s nothing yeah absolutely nothing it it it’s nothing man shout out to uh Charlie
Cruz in the chat says uh do we got kfv play byplay tomorrow n not for this not for that game I don’t think the Charlotte G hor Nicks no but we will be for the Pacer game that will be our Underdog Fantasy game of the week the
Pacer game and and uh we’ll be doing our game of the week preview coming up so make sure you guys stay tuned for further announcements as far as date and time and what we’re going to do the um the preview but we will have play byplay Thursday for the OB Revenge
Game OB Revenge game now how you feeling about that that’s part of this week’s docket man that’s your boy your boy’s coming back home man been much more interesting with Randall on the court yeah it would have been definitely would have been definitely would have been but cuz you
You know there was smoke last time you saw how Rand was looking at Obi after that foul in the last game even though we didn’t have anybody after the trade for OG it was like you saw him stare down oh be like oh word it’s like that
Yeah I was ready for the rematch I I agree with that definitely agree with that um let me see here okay so we got Charlotte we got Utah Indiana and the Lakers this week Charlotte Utah Indiana and the Lakers what do you think we’re beating Charlotte no no
Julius no Julius but we’re still beating Charlotte okay Utah is gonna be you know what I’m going I’m gonna be a believer CP okay we’re going we’re going two in one on the week okay two and one on the week says Alex what do no no no it’s four games
This week two it’s four games Charlotte Utah Indiana Lakers oh Lakers too okay we’re going three in one on the week CP three in one on the week I’m going on a on on the pessimus side I’m going on the pessimus side man I think this could be a one and three
Week for the squad I’m going to believe yeah I think I’m going to believe I’m going to be optimistic we’re get I’m I’m hoping that we get good news soon but I believe this team will rise to the occasion CP okay OG playing the four he’s going to
Be like this is light work I used to do this out in Toronto all day every day yeah I gotta see I gotta see how they play without Julius it’s a lot of offense to miss you bringing a guy that used to be double team and now and now you don’t
Have that in your offense now I’m going one and three I’m going one and three not even two and two you’re not gonna go two and two who’s the win charl Charlotte yeah I’m going Charlotte wow yeah I’m going I’m going one and three this week
Man going one and three I uh I think this Pacer this Pacer game is going to be tough Lakers as well without Julius and not having that size out there um deeper teams Utah could be tricky as well Utah could be very tricky Utah could be tricky as well
I I I’m going one and three man going one and three Uncle Ralph MCD agrees with me in the chat Rick Pennington is questioning you man he’s like damn one and three that that’s that’s just my opinion Man one and three I I think they go one and three this week
Man I think the loss that they get yeah is against the Lakers okay so I think ad I think ad and LeBron is a tough that’s tough without Julius yeah just I mean LeBron’s just been phenomenal man that Laker team is abysmal but LeBron’s been phenomenal this
Season but I feel like we can keep up with the Pacers they’re G be fast but we can keep up let’s see uh what’s what well first off let’s see Halle Burton’s injury so he was ruled out today against the Grizzlies he he was ruled out um he’s missed the previous four
Games this will be his fifth one out of the lineup it’s no it’s not really they’re not really saying uh when he’ll be back now if he doesn’t come back I like our chances a lot better well it’s just no telling that there’s there’s no timetable right now
He’s ruled out tonight against the Grizzlies so no Hal Burton I go two and two if halberton comes back I think it could be a one in three week what if the Knicks trade for Kelly Ock they have him right and ready for that Pacers game yeah that changes
Everything they see Kelly o yeah this week and they’re like you know we need that guy that changes everything man changes everything yeah dead the Hypes is Halbert now three weeks yeah but that was uh he he hurt himself what two weeks ago and he came
Back and played a little bit with SE yakum okay so I don’t know what’s up with his injury yeah um what I saw tonight was that he was ruled out tonight let’s see uh halberton uh injury report this is two days ago when not be playing against the sunu
Left hamstring uh this is going to be a four straight game yeah it’s not clear not clear so we’ll just have to wait and see maybe he’s back maybe he’s not you know maybe he’s back maybe he’s not man what do you guys think in the chat man leave us your predictions in
The chat I see 4 and0 Jay’s junk removal says 4 and0 aliq hickon 4 and0 Sal to aliq he goes we’re good three in one Jay junk Shiloh blunt CP sounds like Stephen A talk one and three okay all right so they they want the pom poms in here they want four and0
Talk in here you know hey you’re just giving your opinion man what you believe will happen this week yeah hopefully you’re wrong hopefully I’m right yeah hopefully three in one and hope or hopefully I’m wrong and hopefully they go four and0 hopefully they they continue to have one
Of the most active longest win winning streaks this season in the NBA because that’s what they have right now yeah for sure for sure man uh who else had a good week this week man our guy JB Jaylen Brunson now after being uh snubbed from the East starters uh Jaylen Brunson was
Averaging a cool uh 32.4 6.6 assists and four rebounds in his last in his last five games and then last week his last three 27.7 5.3 assists and three rebounds in three games man killing light work light work I hear that guy’s pretty good CP yeah yeah yeah
I I hear he’s he’s all right man he’s all right so great job by him um you know definitely expect him to make the All-Star reserves and hey with Julius out just hope they could keep JB upright man because that that’s the thing too was like you know where is tips going to
Go with this rotation who’s going to get longer minutes is it most likely it could be Hart I think Hart gets more minutes but Hart’s got the knee thing that he’s managing but but CP it’s going to be Brunson OG at the Forefront averaging a lot of those minutes because you’re
Gonna need scoring that’s JB you’re gonna need defense yeah and some scoring that’s also OG so like OG’s already been playing 35 Plus minutes in close matchups anyway yeah same thing with Brunson look it’s going to be an uphill battle for the Knicks to a certain degree depending on the matchup
But you got to figure out how you’re gonna be able to arrest these guys man and make sure that they’re they’re healthy for the playoffs too and that’s the that’s the issue man when you’re topheavy as a team you know we’ve seen this in the before especially when you
Look at the Brooklyn Nets when they had Kyrie Harden and and KD yeah those guys were no they weren’t on the court altogether that many times and they were top heavy team that’s the issue yeah you’re going to see that you see that with the Lakers not necessarily this
Season but last season you saw it right that that’s just the issue man that’s why depth is so important for these teams and still happy about the still you know I still like the OG trade but this is where you’re like damn RJ and quick where you

I think we can beat The hornets & possibly The Jazz.
The game vs Pacers without Randle scares me.
But This where Thibs needs to get creative & go with a 3 guard lineup
It never fails
When everything is going great
Boom
Heard pacers would give us back obi toppin for picks lol
Hit that like button for your boys!!!
Start grimes at the 3 og at the 4 i hart center. Off bench hart sims and precoius
No news is bad news. Clearly the mri has been read by now
I think we can go 6 and 3 easily!!!
This is yet another opportunity for the Knicks to take a step forward. Adversity doesn't change who you are, it reveals it. One thing we know about this team, is they have high character players who are gritty so they will compete. Realistically, they are not going to replace JR's productivity fully – but as long as they play hard defensively and move the ball and themselves offensively, they can at least weather the loss of JR – by committee.
(I was #500 on the like)
Trust randle being out is not as bad as you think. Let him rest get better, and let our bench really get more acclimated. Juju was running with the 2nd unit and he had lot of forced turnovers.
How can we get our bench ready to handle these situations if we keep playing these awful rotations with our starters.
CP. A loyal N.Y Knicks fan depending upon who they bring in, remember Mr. Starks and his early impact with the team, trust Tom to motivate.
Grimes & DV if they actually could hit 3s at the same time would be next level
CP be a real fan, Alex. The Knicks will shine..
Could Jacob Toppin make a difference off the bench?
2/2
4-0 this week bro. The offense will be much better and the Knicks will put OG on these teams best player. We got this !!
We played well without Julius last season and we didn’t even have OG. I know we don’t have RJ and Quick but we are also much better defensively
All those Randle haters will now see how important he is to the team. I think we are fooling ourselves that the Knicks can continue on their upward climb without Randle. He is one of the best PFs in the game and Knicks fans have been too hard on him. Feel bad for him because he was playing the best ball of his career and the team was obviously jelling. Just hoping the injury is not as bad as it looks.
I thought Knicks fans didn't like Randle and think the team is better without him? Well now we get to see what the team looks like without him.
😂😂😂 bring back Obi
They did the MRI yesterday. They should have released the diagnosis already. Unless they're delaying as some political trade play.
Pacers are the biggest Knicks threat. They have a good team they beat us already and they’re in the conference. With Siahkim they’re our competition
I'm not a Doctor but I play one on t.v. analysis being given
Is it time to bringToppin up ? ??
Time for Precious and Jericho to step up, and Julius to rest a few weeks
4 and 0
We don’t have time to mess around with Toppin
Boogie Cousins is free and he's healthy……..cheap option…..
I think that if they share the game. Brunson doesn’t have to be the savior. Open up OG bag.
Move the ball and defend . I agree with your lineup of JB, Devo, Hart, OG & I Hart w/ bench of Duece, Grimes, Precious & Jericho.
Thibs can’t yank the bench at the first missed shot. Let them get in a groove. Their defense has been stellar.
I think 4-0 is possible but 3-1 is more likely. If we play selfish hero ball we may lose all of them. Devo, Duece & Grimes have been cooking from deep. Also, Grimes driving to the rack and getting to the free throw line. I like our chances if we share the game!
A guy like randle need the break .. we'll be okay until all star break believe that
