Knicks trade deadline haul and the rise of a ‘generational shooter’ in Donte DiVincenzo

Knicks trade deadline haul and the rise of a ‘generational shooter’ in Donte DiVincenzo

The New York Knicks are back in action on Saturday night when they host the Pacers however the injuries continue to pile up for the Nick aakers following the trade deadline so let’s talk some Nicks hoops and preview this upcoming matchup with Lee escabedo co-host of the

Nick of time show joins me now Lee what is going on my man what’s up deader thanks for having me back and as I always at the start I want to acknowledge and thank JIS Ebony and Ryan G three black intellectuals who have brought me into the podcast to Foster

Some heavyweight discourse and our beloved Nicks and also shout out my Pops I love you all right love the shout outs uh always appreciate you guys was hanging with you guys the other night after the Knicks Mavericks game and that was a good time and Lee we got to talk

About this Thursday trade deadline we spoke about this a lot on the show the other night the Knicks acquired Alec Burks ban bogdanovich and the general response around the league seemed to be praised for the team’s moves how excited are you to see both players suit up in a

Nick’s uniform and how do you think they’re going to impact this roster wo before the trade I thought the nits were an out at B’s move away from winning the championship we need a backup point guard and playmaker could knock down the open three and tibs is read and react system

And adding bond donovich to that deal that’s a move I was all about on the podcast two three weeks ago that solidifies the Knicks winning the championship this year nobody would argue that we won the trade deadline but I also want to have a referendum on my

Main man Tom divido last time I was on here I was on the fire tibs train because I thought he hadn’t he had not beaten a more higher seated team in the playoffs except one time last year he did that he was able to be flexible he

Able to roll the hot hand and he trusted the young guys and because of that I now believe in Tom deido look I gotta give you credit man last time you came here you were on the fire tibs movement you have changed now you are on a new train

And that is that the Knicks will win a championship this year no judgment might be a little bit too early but I I see the train you’re on I I see you I I see the change Lee I see the change on Thursday we also learned this OG anobi

He has underwent elbow surgery he’s going to be out at least three weeks Center Isaiah hartenstein is out for Saturday’s game against Indie with an Achilles injury that he suffered on Thursday against the Mavericks and Jaylen Brunson he’s questionable for Saturday’s game with a spraining ankle

On a scale of 1 to 10 Lee what is your level of concern as these injuries for the Knicks continue to pile up here honestly zero the All-Star break would give Nicks around 12 days to give these guys some rest based on reporting none of his injuries are season ending and

Leon Rose has made a trade with Burson bonovich at his of depth at the three and four positions and banovich now bring you 20 points per game 41.5% shooting from three on 7.4 attempts per game now that allows Rando OG to get quality rest while we continue to have a

Second or third option on the point of attack when healthy the nits have the best starting five in the NBA the best bench in the NBA and the best ninan rotation in the NBA Leo and tibs have built a team to withstand injuries on the Nets ManUp mentality as long as

We’re fully healthy for the playoffs we’re going to win this championship and niit fans will be outside forever man you were really out here hyping up the Knicks fans Championship Championship talk all right I like the energy I like the energy now not sure exactly who’s

Going to be on the court for the Knicks tonight we just talked about Jaylen Brunson being questionable and all the other things but they play the Pacers at the Garden second time in 10 days what will be the key to the Knicks bouncing back and beating the Pacers once

Again man if you’re a player when you catch the ball in the open court let that thing fly man I need Bond donovich and burs to be aggressive I need my main man precious atua to continue to ball out but let me tell you something deer

Dante D venzo this kids a fut an All-Star I said on the podcast when RJ Barrett was traded that Dante had a higher ceiling than RJ because of his Elite three-point shooting there’s an All-Star birth in divon Chino’s future we are witnessing the evolution of a generational shooter a lot of lot of

People say this team is built like the 04 Pistons I actually think they’re built like a 1990 Pistons because just like Isaiah Thomas Was Then Jaylen Brunson is now the best point guard in the NBA man a lot of proclamations from Lee escabedo having the Knicks fans hype

Keep letting it Fly that seems like a pretty good strategy for tonight against the Pacers we’ll see if they do that Alec Burks and boan banovich should be in uniform for the Knicks we will see if Jaylen Brunson suits up for this one I’ll be watching I know Lee escabedo of

The nick of time show I know that he will be watching as well Lee good to talk to you I love The Vibes going to have to check in you on you in a couple of months and see if that Championship train is still rolling but we will talk

Soon my friend thank you thank you man I already bought my take to fly New York for that parade uh me and my pops going be there outside live and direct from Dallas Texas baby let’s go Nicks all right man hope I see you there thank you man blessings
