through the highlights analysis caller reactions the whole nine yard just like we do on kftv but from an NBA Finals point of view hopefully you guys are over there on the NBA report checking that out because that has been a hot ticket no question about it man but speaking of the NBA Finals let’s get into it you know for you basketball fans you guys are tuning in and for you guys that are Celtic haters you know porzingis haters or just can’t stand to see anybody but the Knicks doing anything you guys are probably throwing up but we are seeing the uh the Celtics right now as of you know two games in kind of manhandling the Mavs you know kind kind of manhandling them and this Celtics team is looking like a formidable Force right now up two games to nil on the series they uh beat the Dallas Mavericks 105 to 98 last night Drew holiday 26 points a two-way Force you got the Jaylen Jaylen Brown Jason Tatum going in and the Celtics are looking really really good and the thing about the Celtics that you know you really have to admire at least I do because we’re talking about how do we put a championship Contender on the floor for real for real not not you know we can do this we’re not we’re not aspirational we’re not going from aspiration how do we put a real Chip Contender on the floor and you look at the Celtics team and kind of dissect what Brad Stevens and this front office has been able to do and before Brad Stevens it was Danny a what they been able to do it started with getting the Jalen in the mix and they’ve you know just added and tweaked and tweaked and tweaked around those guys Horford was part of that original core and then he ends up getting traded you know we this is not Boston Celtics history uh day here but just to show you you know they ultimately go out there and get a porzingis get Derek white first get porzingis and get you holiday and here we are this team is looking filthy right now they have starting at the point of attack two of their guards in holiday and white are all NBA defense you have the two jayen on the wing formidable Defenders Jaylen Brown I mean Jaylen Brown could have made all defense I mean look at look at the defense that he’s playing in this finals he’s got Kyrie in jail making it tough on Luka donic you know and Luca’s going to get his but still tough Jaylen Brown’s a tough Defender then in the middle porzingis showed some shot deterrence especially in game one I thought he had three blocks in in game one game two as well had a block in game two and they become ferocious defensively a lot of people look at at Celtics offense and they look at you know the the amount of guys that can beat you offensively but defensively they’ve been locked in starting with white and holiday I mean those two guys you got those two pit bulls chasing you around all night it’s going to be a long night and when they want to they’ll pick you up 94 feet they’ll switch the coverages up and it’s going to be a long night for you so there are a lot of ways for this Celtics team to beat you and then on top of that they didn’t even shoot the three ball all that well last night they shot 26% from three last night but it was their defense that carried him they held Dallas to 98 points so a lot was made about the Celtics and their three-point offense two shot happy two three too much three-pointers well they didn’t need it last night to win they got it in the ski mask way and just got it in with stop after stop clutch stop after clutch stop from Drew holiday almost forcing an 8sec violation in the fourth quarter that turned into a steal which turned into a holiday 3 to the last play of the game now a lot of you guys want to say Jaylen Brown pushed in the back whatever the case is you got a Jaylen Brown and a Derek white block at The Rim on PJ Washington so defensively is is where um they are really turning up here so the question is from a Nick standpoint let’s break this down and again I want to hear from Team run it back a lot of you guys are saying we have enough we could have challenged them if if Jaylen and OG and those guys are healthy we could even challenge them this year that’s what I heard from a lot of you guys is that true I don’t necessarily agree and this is where this thing gets tricky because on a team like this in Boston who can shot create one through five yeah everybody’s not shot creating at a superstar All-Star level that’s impossible but capable where’s their weaknesses on offense where are their weaknesses on defense right now is it Horford okay well Horford can go on the bench you got porzingis out there so the fives are the five in terms of Horford is susceptible maybe they’re bench players but starter standpoint where the holes in the defense we the holes in the offense for the Celtics so when we look at this Nicks team how it’s presently constructed hey starts at the top Brunson number 11 you have a Dynamo Superstar shot Creator Elite offensive weapon that’s a great start but this is why I continue to say the number two yes Julius biggest question mark because you need at least that to have a shot here and we’re seeing for Dallas you know right now if luuk and Kyrie don’t score damn near 70 combined they might not have a shot at this because behind those guys they don’t have enough shot creation at least you know Brunson is guaranteed to get you to that dance and he’s he’s guaranteed to perform or it’s close to a guarantee don’t want to say guarantees no guarantees in life but it’s close to it he showed us two two years in a row that he can get the job done is Julius coming along for the ride that is will once again be the biggest question mark going into the next season 2425 because a lot of you guys on the in the Julius can’t and I’m with you I’m with you run it back with Julius and my point is run it back with Julius unless you can get something better but for the run it backs remember postseason is a different animal we haven’t seen SE Julius perform at an alltime level in the postseason yet and some of you guys want to put the injuries on it you want to put the the the co Year all of that fine but the fact is a fact we haven’t seen it and when you get to games 83 and Beyond it it’s not the same as game three 13 23 33 43 it’s an endurance test so even though you want to blame the injuries are part of it every everybody’s damn near banged up by the time you get to this point but the real ones perform can still perform and if jaylen’s gonna be that guy we have to know we need certainty here that Julius can come along for the ride because against a team like Boston that is deep as deep as they are and not going anywhere injuries barring any injuries they’re not going anywhere for a couple years do we have another guy that can go out there and get his shots and that can create for others because against this Boston team there are no holes defensively and now they’re they’re cutting off some of the Maverick strengths which is the corner threes Mavs haven’t been hitting their Corner threes they are doubling down on the Mavericks on their drives and leaving a lot of these guys above the break these PJ Washington D threes they can have that one thing I like about the Knicks is that we do have better three-point Firepower than a lot of these teams like I like Dante I like ogi Brunson so that’s fine like the the supportting cast I think it’s fine the question is is that second Elite offensive weapon that can make the defense pay is it there number 30 will he be there for this team when they need him the most in the postseason the one thing I like about Julius is that number one he adds to that Nick’s identity of being a strong physical rebounding force that Dallas doesn’t have they’re they’ve gotten better they gotten a lot better but are they all the way there no I don’t see it so he adds to that and another thing I like is that even though he hasn’t been the greatest at it he’s still a guy who can get you some higher percentage shots attack the basket and get you to the free throw line that is going to be important against a team like the Celtics because what is the plan if your shots from the outside aren’t falling you need a formidable inside presence and I think Julius has the potential to give us that I also like in a against a team like this a guy like an iHeart this is why I’m I’m leading more towards iHeart and you know again Mitch is my guy I don’t you know is nothing personal this is just business of basketball because Mitch has been a little bit tight you know he’s he’s hearing his name in the Rumblings he’s he’s commenting on on the kftv Instagrams with the trade rumors he wants Redemption I get it I’m I’m rocking my black nest te today but with ihw but when you’re going up against a a aggressive defense like this that is so versatile and quick you need guys that are going to be quick decision makers guys that can put the ball on the floor guys that can finish at the basket you know that iHeart floater I think that will be clutch against a team like the Celtics so I like some of that supporting the supporting cats that the Knicks have question is just back on Julius man because you need elite shot creation and playmaking ability you need that you you definitely need that along with your depth and this is why it’s such a a a tough off season for the Knicks you need that depth this why I love Nicks fans you got two comments in the chat that I extremely po polarizing Pac-Man Main says Julius is not clutch and two lifted in the chat says Julius is hit many game winners he is clutch enough all of these is in the regular regular season it’s all in the regular season postseason is different in the way that other teams are scheming on you in the way that players enter into these games how they feel we heard Josh Hart talk about and and you know a lot of people are looking at LCA donic same one with the triple double last night look like he he he spent all his energy in the first half and the second half he was a shell of himself got absolutely destroyed and was making bonehead decision after boneh head decision the second half endurance it gets the best of them Josh Harton last night’s postgame show talked about the fact that in the Pacer Series in in the Luca donic context in the Pacer series the Knicks were looking for ways to cover Jaylen Brunson defensively because he had been so spent on the offensive end and remember Brunson was the one saying oh I don’t want to use injuries and stuff like that as an excuse here’s Josh Hart saying hey guys are banged up you have to think creatively in how you get guys a breather while they’re on the court because they are they’re taking a toll on their body when guys are picking them up 94 feet in the playoffs and being physical with him so the question is can he get him there can he get us there and so you know when you think about potential moves that this team can make you know there’s still a couple of guys that that I think about here you guys don’t like the spider thing I’ve push you know fallen off on the spider thing according to reports doesn’t seem like they’re going to be as aggressive but if you think about a guy like a spider who’s Elite at attacking the basket and finishing and can create off of the dribble and off of his drives would that necessarily be a bad idea because that not only gives you an elite shot Creator at close distance he’s a guy that Brunson can play off of and I thought we needed more of that in the playoffs utilizing Jaylen Brunson not just in the ball in his hands and pounding away and driveing to the basket but also in a catch and shoot because he’s such a good shooter that’s where Julius was missed in the playoffs as well he didn’t he didn’t necessarily have a elite playmaker that could find Jaylen Brunson in his spots and get him good looks off the ball so that’s why SPID is still intriguing of course the fit you know two ball dominant guys defensively how would it work I’m not here to tell you be perfect but I’m here to tell you that a guy like that I think offensively could still help dejonte Murray dejonte Murray it’s another guy Nicks need playmaking they need ball handling Off the Bench they need an Innings eater now he doesn’t have that great numbers in terms of finishing but his athleticism his ability to get shots in the mid-range could he be another guy I think he could be another Target for the Knicks you know and a lot of the guys look a lot of you guys like Dante I love Dante I think Dante Dante’s story this year was fantastic I think Dante’s story was fantastic but is he a guy that can go out there and get his own he not the greatest at it he’s a guy that you need to find and you need to assist and he takes a lot of tough shots but when they make make you put the ball on the floor a lot of times we see with Dante it’s difficult for him to finish doesn’t have the wingspan to finish mid-range can be a little bit dicey decision making can be a little bit dicey like that’s what that’s what you need here look at what Boston is doing one through five you know look at what Boston’s doing here 1 through five so it’s not to say Ragu it cannot be your Premiere starting two he’s he was great last year but I think adding more depth where you can have some versatility would be great as well so I think about SPID I think about uh dejonte Murray I think you guys some of you guys are putting Zack LaVine out there I’m good on that passing on Zack LaVine guys I I don’t know you know I mean I mean let’s take let’s take a look at the numbers shall we shall we take a look at the the line numbers here 43 million next year 45 the after a player option for 48 you go get Zack cine and then resign OG Rand I mean you’re in second apron paloa here you having a second apron party I’m not doing that and the bull the Bulls are desperate now they are in desperation mode to get rid of this guy an injury-prone bloated contract player that plays no defense I it’s not worth it you you’re GNA I mean if you’re going to go into second e at least in my opinion you want to go in with a team that you are confident in but to come come and get a guy who’s in the High 40s and by playoff time he’s not available because his knees he’s got to need the bridan or something like that that seems like same old Knicks or the old Knicks the old old Knicks you know so I’m off the LaVine track um some of you guys did like the roosen this was an article from Chicago Sports NBC Sports Chicago on the roosan this was uh their their GM or the owner this is uh what’s what’s this guy’s name I I’m butcher butchering his name here Cary SAS all right vice president of basketball operation uras okay uh I don’t know if he’s lvan or Lithuanian but he he says he wants d r rozan back there was a report that D rozan that they tried to negotiate with d rozan this past season on a on a two-year four at two-year deal as close to 40 per so the tomor wants to get a bag so if you’re the [ __ ] you know he’s another guy he’s in the 40 range you’re not getting the mar for for for the mid level or anything crazy like that are the Knicks willing to do that you’re looking at second apron territory here so I would be out on that I would definitely be out on that see what people in the chat say python ni Zach will tie us up for years pass on that for sure for sure so I mean you know the the all the names haven’t come out yet offseason has not started yet but just a couple of names because like I said yes you need depth but depth alone is not going to get you there you still need talent I mean I mean look at how these finals are playing out right now two games in not over but Boston is is heavily in command and the stars of game one and game two you could argue have been porzingis and Drew holiday the two Acquisitions that is how deep they are you had six Boston Celtics in double figures in game one you had Drew holiday the best player on the floor in game two Drew holiday they got Drew holiday too that’s who you have to contend with you know all the talk about Jason Tatum I think Jason Tatum is out there making winning plays for his team he doesn’t have to play like the superstar that everybody expects him to be he doesn’t have to put those numbers up he’s just doing what he needs to do to get his team wins which is facilitating I think Jason Tatum’s having an excellent final so far he’s not shooting the ball all that well but that’s fine he doesn’t need to but that is how deep they are as a team and that’s what the Knicks have to think about as we’re building this theme it doesn’t mean that you know you need to put a finals Contender out there next year but as you make your moves and and resign Brunson and sign OG and all these guys we have to put that question out there do we have enough to beat Boston and it’s not just it’s not just Boston that we have to think about the other teams are going to get better is Milwaukee going to continue to slide or do they find some improvements with the dam and Yannis and and Middleton experiment does Miami improve you know Riley after after Miami got bounced out he wasn’t too happy do they make a move I think Philly’s going to make a move they’re sitting on a on a ton of cap space they know that you know their contendership status is resting on the legs of Joel embiid and that’s that’s wiling by the year so they need to make a move they don’t have time to stand around my’s not going to stand around they’re going to make a move whether it’s Paul George or whoever the case may be I think Philly’s going to try to upgrade so they’re going to be tough there’s Orlando make a move a lot of guys penciling clay maybe clay or another Wing Paul George as well I think Paul George ultimately stays with the clippers but will Orlando make a move I’ve seen a couple names here people throwing around I again I don’t know where you guys you guys keep dreaming about Macau Bridges hey I could be wrong I don’t see that ever happening as long as he’s in in that uniform I just don’t see it unless there’s some like miraculous three- team trade Where Brooklyn just gets a steal I don’t see them ever trying to help the New York Knicks and last year I mean I mean last show we showed you like the history of Trades between the Knicks and the Nets is few and far between yeah Co it’s not happening what’s everybody throwing throwing out macall bridges for that’s a dream yeah Caruso is cool I’d love to get Caruso I think Caruso would be perfect here but that’s not it that’s not alone that alone is not going to do it that alone is not going to do it it’ll make us a good team a very good team we want to be a great team right now Boston is looking like a great team and they’ve been doing it all year Zach Ed is not saving this team well and and we’re GNA get into draft Series starts up tonight my guy Cory Tula of the no Sealand podcast will be back at it tonight 9 o so this is double header Duty June 10th on the on season double header kftv keep it locked like share and subscribe to the channel and call us up man what do you guys think uh 657 3831 159 Jamal man in the chat on Facebook is throwing Tomatoes at zachie he’s not a fan we’ll talk about it we’re gonna talk about it with uh with with Corey we’re going to talk about it with Corey you know Caruso’s cool like it’s is there another up start candidate that we can get another type of Brunson type you know somebody on my Twitter mentioned t e he’s a guy I always like those are good moves nice moves to add depth I think we need Wing depth we need guard depth for sure Center depth just in case things happen with with Mitch and iHeart we need all of that but the question will always remain do we have enough elite shot creation and playmaking and that stands lies with Julius Randall and potentially if they can get one more shout out to James Baker in the chat d77 says trade for bi put him at the two really have to see like what the uh what the trade package for bi is going to look like I I I mean you’re going to get bi for cheap you can’t get bi for cheap right now Pelicans are still trying to compete in the west Pelicans are trying to compete in the west man can you get bi on the steel I doubt it he’s another guy that gets banged up with nicknack injuries I look at him as a small time player and the call Anthony towns range but he’s got two more years left on his deal and the thinking is that uh New Orleans is going to want to trade him for something before they lose him in free agency and it looks like between uh Trey Murphy and what’s what’s this guy what’s this guy’s name I I got his name at the tip of my head but I can’t uh Fred Jon not no not Fred Jones you guys know what I’m talking about man pause on that as well but between Jones and Murphy looks like those two guys are going to be in there now you guys like bi what do you guys think in the chat man you guys like bi put him at the two depends on the price contract’s not crazy it’s 33 uh 33 36 that’s it herb Jones herb Jones there we go I said Fred Jones her herb Jones salute than thanks in the chat I mean the price is right of course I would look into it um yeah the Price Is Right you know uh New Orleans wants a send maybe you know is valent Tunis going to be looking for that go going back there do do they want Mitch anybody interested in Mitch so you know do does a mitch Buon contract interest to Pelicans it’s going to be difficult man so couple names you guys are throwing out there you got spider potential dejon Murray Brandon angram no I was I wasn’t saying herb Jones in relation to the Knicks I was saying it seems like New Orleans it would keep Murphy and Jones and looks like bi could be the odd man out because I think New Orleans is stuck you know bi is going to be the first guy out and then Zion’s going to be unnoticed they’re limited right now I think the CJ experiment has run its course as well building blocks CP Fred Jones was that high highflying scrub we had back in the day yeah shout out to Fred Jones man once a Nick always a Nick right Michael Porter Jr I don’t think we would have enough you know Denver that that stuff right there I don’t see the the former defending champs or yeah whatever I I don’t see them trading Porter Jr unless it’s a significant upgrade their biggest hit last season or this past season in and when they got ousted was that they didn’t have enough depth and so if they’re going to use him I would think you’re going to want something somebody who can help you in the starters and and get some more depth pieces as well so I I don’t think I don’t see mpj as a realistic option so team run it back what do we think here man uhoh uhoh uhoh I told you guys to call in nobody accepted a challenge so we’re going to go to the phones cuz one person did there’s always that one guy who’s willing to step up to the challenge he’s been doing it for the last seven years on this show we got Ari from Manhattan in the building Ari what’s good man yo yo yo what up CP how talk to me man offseason on season what’s good man how you feeling I’m good good man I’m good I took the game seven loss quite hard I’ve been trying to stay away from uh you know the Knicks stuff for a little bit you know focusing on a you know work in soccer but um here we are I definitely wanted to come support you um you know listen man I’m I’m with you uh you know the names that I hear you know have we not learned from the past when you chase the shiny object you know the Zach LaVine the Carl Anthony towns is of the world you know these overpriced Superstars now with the second apron um things are you know it’s even worse to to to pay for overpriced Superstars right um you know I don’t see the problem I I know the Knicks aren’t going to do it I just don’t see the problem in drafting two players right get some rookie scale contracts on the books give me a two-way Wing who could PR provide some insurance for OG we see how valuable that guy is to our team you know give me some Wing depth right um maybe get a backup big you know in the hopes of maybe moving Mitch in the future um the two names that I do like a little bit again I haven’t I’ve been out of the game for a little bit I haven’t really checked the contracts and all that stuff um but I like you know dejon Murray could be good he could create shot creation like you said um the asking price wasn’t too much for him at the deadline um you know looking back at it with how banged up we were in the playoffs and just the amount of you know you know force and like you know how beat up Jaylen Brunson got maybe making that the D Murray move would have been smart to do last year yeah but either way um you know from my understanding his contract isn’t too bad they’re not looking to um ask for too much I think it was like a pick or two so I would I would be open uh to that another name um and my concern here is about the contract and the extension but I think a perfect fit in a perfect world would be Paul George if he wasn’t trying to sign an extension for Max money and be 37 years old and making $60 million or whatever right he’s a two-way Wing who could play offense and defense um he could create shots and um you know he could guard whatever one through four something like that he is a perfect fit but I don’t from my understanding he wants like a Max extension and I’m just not willing to do that um but what I would do if I was the Knicks man is I would I would draft players I would develop the players right you know I’d rather run it back than make a Zack LaVine or Carl Anthony or some crazy trade like that um and you know the elephant in the room you said it it’s it’s it’s Julius Randall man um you know he has the talent to do it but my problem with we I mean everyone knows my problem with Randall but you know I just figure the guy’s gonna be due to get paid and I’m not paying him so I’m flipping him that’s what I would do um you know so I’m just not sold I want High basketball IQ guys I want guys that can make quick reads in high pressure moments and um Julius Randall is just not that guy for me so just to sum it all up draft your players develop your players get some Wing depth that’s number one get some Wing depth yeah and um you know make sure you identify players that have no injury history right what have we learned from this past year we’re always injured right I love Mitchell Robinson good player but the guy’s always hurt right you have iHeart you know you can draft a big in the in the draft maybe look trading him for some shot creation a backup a point guard whatever the case may be but we have to stop this idea of just trading for a former Allstar who has good PR um you know we’re over that right we have a foundation and my opinion is that the Nova boys and OG are the only four guys that I’m going to uh keep but um thank you keep doing what you’re doing CP hit that like button subscribe and share and appreciate you as always buddy let’s go R Ari checking in salute to my guy Ari man he’s a kftv day one this is Nick’s weekly episode 100 I I feel like AR’s been here for all of them may not call in for all of

anywhere let’s continue to build the team if we can find somebody better and the word the operative word is if because in my opinion at that spot there there’s not too many people that are better that actually want to come play in New York and then obviously playing in New York it has a lot of of of of um I want to say it has a lot of things like going on with it CS want their money they don’t want to pay taxes you got dudes like on no disrespect to his situation but he he on child support he can’t come to New York there’s a lot of things going on where we can’t get certain cats to play on this team and you got to come here to work this ain’t leisure time you come in here to work you come here to watch film you come in here to be at practice then you gotta watch film then you got to train then you got to play 40 minutes like this is not a cakewalk so yeah it takes a certain character of a player that we need to come here and that’s what you would want anyway because in my opinion that’s a person that’s a winner he wants to win at life and he wants to win at basketball yeah and I feel like we have a like n to 10 of those guys I think we need some better bench players that can give guys more of a rest throughout the regular season and we won’t have to push guys so hard but you know tb’s gonna play who he trusts and I think we need a running back same Squad add add a maybe one or two bench players try to you know make all the contracts work because every contract got to work you’re not taking no cash that want extra money for let’s play yeah to be hurt we not doing that so yeah we in a good situation it took Boston eight years to get to the situation they still have not won a championship yet they’ve been sitting on this squad for looking good yeah but it’s not the same not the same squad though get let’s get credit not the same Squad it’s only it’s only Horford Tatum and brown it’s not the same Squad the same core they running around the same core yeah so Brad Stevens is still there the same coach the same mentality you know but that’s it I don’t want to be longwinded at the end of the day we out bro Harlem World stand up appreciate the call man look I’m I’m here to run it back with Julius unless they can get a significant upgrade but the bulls eyes on him the bulls eyes on him can he help us get there Brunson is doing all he can but Brunson needs help he was banged up he doesn’t want to admit it he was banged up at the end of this thing I saw it I was in Philly game four man went to the locker room we didn’t know if he was even coming out for to finish the game much less to finish with 48 points and he’s the same one who wants to tell you I don’t want to use entries as an excuse the guy the guy was literally went to the locker room for a solid 10 minutes in real time maybe more than that to the point where everybody’s looking that direction including the coach to see if he’s even coming out all right I’ve seen this guy after every timeout with a i wrap around his knee then he goes out there and breaks his hand in game seven he needs help by the time he leaves that game in game seven against the Pacers you had no starters left running up and down in court needs real real help needs real help the lunch paale guys and Nova guys are cool you need another guy and the Julius thing is cool I get everybody look you got to respect the guy he wanted to come here and all of that sentiment is only going to get you so far it’s going to come a point where you got to produce this is sports that’s the name of the game so hopefully you can do it I’m rooting for him I I hope so I’m a Nicks fan I hope all these guys win but their success is I think is largely going to rely on him being healthy and being able to produce all that sentiment he can come back to the barbecue when we when we look you saw Legends Lounge Legends Lounge is popping starberry came back they got spre well back Hey listen that Dolan has shown you no matter what there’s always a way to come back and get your flowers so same thing for Julius all right if it don’t work out it don’t work out I we we could talk about how much he embraced New York later right now we need to produce we want the chip you could you could come back to the Legends lams and get your flowers later on in a couple years all right who’s this core in the chat $10 Super Chat says uh trade Lowry for Julius if we can I’m good I’m good on that I’m G tell you like I told the other caller I’m good on that I don’t I don’t think I don’t think New York is a Lowry town I I just say that you know I keep Julie so for him some of you might think I’m crazy I keep Julius over over Lowry you know I’m I’m that’s that’s just me I’m I’m keeping I’m keeping Julius I’m keeping him that’s it so there’s that uh shout out to game theard 16mon franchise Channel member says Booker T says we want the gold sucker shout out to Booker T I’ve been catching a lot of old book a harlem heat Clips on on IG you know IG once you watch one thing that the algorithm just sends you everything so you know from from the from the Hulk Hogan famous bar that he dropped on Hulk Hogan to like just random Clips so out at the book a te I don’t think he gets his flowers enough within the uh the pro wrestling discussion you know may maybe we’ll we’ll we’ll have that conversation another time we’ll bring Cass back and talk about it so we’ll talk about that all right so uh that was that on the Nicks and and Boston something to think about leave me some comments in the comment section salute to the replay gang for sure now you know it’s not clear on what moves the Knicks will make but according to the athletic there is one move that Anonymous execs are unanimous about in regards to what the Knicks are going to do in the off season and that is extending Thomas Tibido the athletic recently pulled eight front office officials and shout out to our guy Fred cats friend of the program the athletic recently pulled eight front office officials who do not work for the Knicks asking uh what what would they deem as a fair extension uh no one said that they wouldn’t no one said he would not extend Tibido his current salary is7 million a year the eight respondents answered within the eight figure salaries ranging from 10 to 13 so a lot of people myself included are thinking that the tibs bag is on the way now as we take a look at some of the highest paid coaches here it’s according to front office Sports you got Steve Kerr making 17 bags welld deserved Greg poppett 16 deserved spoler 15 definitely deserved I thought spoler got a bigger bag than this I thought spoler became the highest paid or does that kick in another time so when spuler got his bag it wasn’t even the biggest deal 120 million extension okay but papovich still makes more money I guess papovich and ker still make more money annually okay then you got Monty Williams at 13 he’s not doing anything that’s free money for him and buen H with the Suns just got 10 I think tibs will be you don’t want to makeing less than Monty because Monty’s not doing anything I think he’ll get about 14 that’s my guess I think I think Dolan I think Dolan gives in the bag 14 for tibs fiveyear deal what do you guys think in the chat hey it ain’t my money give them whatever he wants he’s earned it and it doesn’t count against a salary cap so hey whatever whatever he gives him it will be well earned this is a basketball lifer eats sleeps and breathes Nick basketball he brought us back from laughing stock to respectability we’re going to put some respect on his name we have to so I think he gets about uh what I say 14 that’s my prediction 14 gamit says 14 and a half yeah I think it’s gonna be 14 all right can’t you can’t can’t have him making less than manty with a 381 and 404 record Monty didn’t even want the job in Detroit he just won the lottery keeping a 100 and again you go back on tbs’s resume got us from laughing stock to respectability playoffs three out of the last four years two all NBA players three Allstar appearances well Julius didn’t play but three Allstars a three what’s his record with the Knicks 175 and 143 550 win percentage with the Knicks right now second round in two years straight first time since 899 quickly six man at the year consideration improvements across the board guys getting paid ihearts about to get paid on the strength of tibs Brunson about to get paid on the strength of tibs I mean brunson’s a great player but hey Devan chenzo improvements har Mitch Deuce who would I leave out he’s earned it he’s he’s earned it yeah oh expectations are are definitely going to be high not just for Tims but for everybody after they all get the bag yeah absolutely quick quick about to get a bag so I think this is a well earned extension whenever the news does come doesn’t count against a salary cap they can give 100 million a year I don’t really care it’s Dolan’s money not my money this might mean a beer might cost might cost you a little more my my cost you go might go from 15 to 20 somebody in chat said kind of a low bar I mean you seen improvements with the number of players I just gave you what I just ripped off about 10 players that have improved under this guy I think he’s doing done a great job sure yes he has his weaknesses we know that I I think overall tibs has done a great job so what do you guys think about that in the chat tibs getting the bag soon leave me a comment and let me know what you guys think there Cosmic DK what do I think about news about cat I didn’t see any news about cat but I I don’t want to see any news about cat I’m good yeah I’m good on cat any chance IQ accepts a vet minimum yeah if his agent’s the worst in the world sure IQ IQ is going to go somewhere and get the bag and and uh he he will have earned it as well I definitely think so do scg think do I think they put a games clause in OG’s contract I don’t think they’ll be that strict you know I don’t think they’ll be that strict but I mean anyway to make all NBA anything you got to play 65 games so the NBA has almost put that clause in there themselves so you know maybe there’s a clause there hey make all NBA you get another bonus ha there but that would be interesting for sure I I just don’t see it you know it’s not like football per se where the where the owners are that shrewd in terms of how they Dole out contracts so there’s that with Thomas Tibido so let’s get to our player season reviews The Underdogs if you will man and today’s player you know we covered Deuce we covered heart we covered iHeart and today’s player we got to talk about precious atua man precious atua acquired by the Knicks in the New Year’s Eve block Buster trade for OG anobi in exchange for RJ and quick precious came through for many people myself included a throw in the deal but you know given that the Knicks did need big man depth at the time he said all right you know fine see what he can do and he turned went from throw in to Absolute necessity for this New York Nick team to survive and tread water in the way that they did in the second half of the season and and in the beginning of this 2024 calendar year played 49 games for the Knicks starting 18 and average 7.6 points 7.2 boards 1.1 assists and shot 52% from the field and I remember when I saw this guy first few games I’m like man this guy’s bum juice like real talk you know real talk I was not hiding the guy he had no hands was making mistakes left and right but you got to give guys time to get acclimated gain chemistry and give credit to him he stuck with it and as I said he became a major factor for this team and his best month with the Knicks he had a stellar Stellar February man let me just pull this up look to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up onton for you boys KF TV Nicks weekly presented by manscaped let me pull these numbers up real quick because his month of February was outstanding uh um he averaged in February 12- 10 38 minutes a night his minutes shot up to be first and four bows he went from 18 He doubled his minutes from January to February when Julius went down 38 minutes a night and he averaged 12 and 10 shot 50% from the field didn’t see a three-pointer he didn’t like definitely didn’t want to see him taking him but he wasn’t afraid showed some versatility out there he was guarding fives he was guarding fours some threes you saw him guarding sakam in this Pacers series so he showed some versatility out there but the biggest thing was his grit and just being another player that can buy in to tips’s culture and philosophy and so it he just he just fit right in after a short time of struggling fit right in so we had some impressive games there great job by precious and even in game four against um game four against Philly I was there they they lost they lost buan then they had you had foul trouble between iHeart iHeart was getting worked by MB that entire game the entire series but you know it happens uh Hart got into foul trouble as well so tips had to go to press after all of that I thought precious in that fourth quarter third and fourth quarter he made some big plays on both ends of the Court good job melbon 9 happy birthday man says this his birthday shout out to melb N9 everybody in the chat though happy birthday to Mel besta so that so that was precious man great job the Bronx kid really carved out a roll for himself here and now the question is will he stay because as we look at precious suu’s contract he has let’s pull it up here so to everybody in the chat hit that thumbs up onon for you boy he has a um he’s a restricted free agent he’s he’s he is a restricted free agent so there it is the club option has been exercised 4.4 million cap hit and based on who we talked to I think if you guys remember the Bobby marks episode and if you didn’t watch the Bobby Marx show when it comes to Nicks offseason that is literally the best show that we did all year and that’s the best show you’re going to find if you want to really know the ins and outs to this Nicks offseason every single player every single scenario go watch that Bobby marks show and uh but you know he thought like everybody else did the conventional wisdom is that the Knicks intend to allow pressers and truers to to test the market and go from there because they have so many other priorities that he he’s a low priority player unfortunately great story but I think he’s a low priority player for them right now and in the center rotation iHeart is going to be first what what’s up with Mitch OG’s contract extension is Brunson truly intended to sign that extension early and give them a discount so Randall so you have a lot of priorities there where uh press and cheers deal I think they can afford to let him test out free agency if they’re able to get him back on the cheap cool if not thanks for your service I think that’s that that will be the ultimate fate for press AA but he did great here man he he did great and there just so many guys that when guys got hurt they stepped up he he’s a big factor he was definitely a big factor so what do you guys think in the chat man in terms of pre aoua would you run it back by all means necessary bring him back you know you giving them a a a a mid mid level the mid level’s at like 125 not sure they they can really afford to do that when you can potentially go get somebody in the draft or get somebody on the vet minimum which is where I think they’ll go but we we’ll see what happens there we we’ll see what happens melb says I’m 30 today but I feel like 20 okay salute to you salute to your Youth Man enjoy it embrace it it goes by fast and if you’re a Knicks fan it goes by very fast they’ll Aid you make sure your pacemaking everything is tuned up for the 24-25 season but happy birthday to melb shout out Butter Love on the on the Facebook he says

know I need Nick’s fans to look at me people who are saying well he should really just wait for the Nick job or he’s waiting for the Nick job absolute nonsense there he goes this is another person you had cow herd you had uh uh some somebody else and now here’s another guy Ian o Conor Dan made a very smart decision to stay at Yukon I think he’ll win another championship ring or two then finish the final 10 to 15 years of his career coaching the one team he was meant to coach the New York Knicks I mean how desperate are these people Nick fans please re read my stuff read my tweets it’s ridiculous here here we go here’s another one here here’s another one let’s let’s look at these and and laugh here here’s this who’s this Amy Murray number one Duke basketball fan okay uh she’s got no credentials uh he’ll wait for the Knicks job or Northeast job NB or Northeast NBA job to open all right so there that is let’s see the only NBA job Hurley should consider is the Knicks if and when tibs is gone guess Hurley’s waiting for the Nick job look at all this you can’t make it up you can’t make it up here it is here it is Bozo Colin card I’m Dan Hurley wife is from New Jersey wait until the Nick jobs open up it will it’s the NBA so now is is that before or after Jay Wright I mean listen anything’s possible Never Say Never but uh I just talked about it tibs is here tibs is here but but look at all this man okay here’s here’s a here’s a guy with some sense Sam Quinn CBS I hate all the actual Dan Hurley should want the Nicks job nonsense has been floating around Nicks have a coach a very good one who’s about to sign a long-term extension it’s lame as hell to basically say Hurley should wait for the Tom Tibido to get fired that is it that is it right there Sam Quinn from CBS gets it I mean can we stop the nonsense can we please stop the nonsense here here’s this guy Amo hoops and and people have been getting on him because he’s never right on anything according to Amo Hoops the NBA job that hurle is looking for is with the New York Knicks I mean Nicks for clicks has gotten this desperate it’s crazy they haven’t it’s it’s to the point around where we we we we we don’t even wait until free agency a potential trade season now we’ve got to talk Nicks at all cost the only difference between us and Them is we’re bringing substance to the conversation that’s all
