The Knicks Best Shot At A Title Is RIGHT NOW!!

The Knicks Best Shot At A Title Is RIGHT NOW!!

What do you think about this Nick squad? You feel what my squad do? Finally getting their chemistry together. Cat figure out where he’s fit in. I think it’ll be bad decision on their part to try to get rid of any of the pieces right now cuz they’re starting to get get their lather going. They’re starting to get a little bit of momentum figuring out who who need to be where, who taking what shots. They playing good defense. I like Mitchell Robinson getting his getting his [ __ ] together. He getting his momentum going. I think uh Jordan Clarkson starting to find his spot on the team. Um they look good. They look energized. I think Mike finally got what he needed to to to get over to them as far as messaging of what they want to do. I think that’s good on his part cuz it’s early. Usually that happens in the first year later in the season. Um but they look good. They look solid. Think if they sustain it. Male Bridges looks great. Josh Hart get him to rebound a little bit more like he was doing before. I think it could be another breakout season for the Knicks. So, I think they were two and three to start the season. Uh 15 and four since then. So, seem to figure this out. I want to say their offense was fifth highest in the league last season. I think they’re third now. So, Mike Brown is what he’s been known to do. It ain’t 23 and one, but you know what I’m saying? You know what I’m saying? I’m just talking hoop. It ain’t 23 and one. You know what I’m saying? The Pistons ain’t 23 and one. It’s certain. You know what I’m saying? But it momentum is momentum. You know what I’m saying? You when you hoop, you can hoop. You know what I’m saying? All them players. Go out there and go out there, you compete. You know what I’m saying? Play the team that’s on the schedule. Out there look good. You know what I’m saying? Play the team that’s on play Toronto, man. Who plays Toronto? I believe fifth right now, but they’ve been struggling as fifth in the East right now, but they’ve been struggling as a little late. Playing NBA teams. Uh, can they I think I believe all the teams in the NBA other than preseason. Oh, they play the team, right? They play the teams that the NBA made on the schedule. So, they can’t control that though, right? I don’t think the teams are allowed to pick, but they have to play the games though, right? Babe. Yeah. Like they they can’t pick at you like this team. I don’t want to play. Yeah. This team struggling. Like I don’t want to play this team like they struggling. They didn’t do that, did they? Uh not to my know. Okay. All right. Cool. They just playing the team that’s kind of but I’m merely a start out record about the Knicks. No, no, no. The Knicks. Knicks 17 to seven. So they got about uh started season two and three 15 and four since then. 17 and seven. Uhhuh. What about them? Are they going to get to the finals? Uh, I think they can out of East, but they gonna have to find another true score and somebody to get the ball out of Brunson’s hand because we saw last year what happens when they just put a bigger guard on them. They got different I do like I do like uh Bridges and I do like OG. I mean, they average around 14 15 a night. So, that’s fine right there. But, they’re going to do something with Cat. I don’t think Cat fits the offense and the defensive what Mike Brown’s about. I get it, but we talking about when let’s talk who now. We talking about when we get to the playoffs, right? And we put that bigger guard on Brunson. And you know how he get when you know bigger guard. You ain’t got no other true ball handler or no true scorer. So that’s what the Knicks gonna have to go do. They got to give him the ball. They get there. But you know, let’s talk hoot. We saw what happened last year. They got to feature town. I could have swore when we was talking hoot, we was saying that Brunson is not even the number one option for a team like the Knicks. We’ve had conversation before and that’s that’s been the discourse that Brunson can’t lead them to a championship or to a final. People have said this. in in years past. A different Brunson this year though, getting to it early. I think second in the league in first quarter scoring. Changing it up and they need guards off the bench too. Going first instead of fourth now. Getting them off to a a good start. I just tell you what’s going on. But he’s going hosting. So he’s going first and fourth instead of the whole game. Just I think focusing on that emphasis of putting up points. I think it’s if he is doing it that way then yeah it’s cool to still being the closer that he has been but be more of a team player. Come on man. You know, down the stretch, King, they going to need they going they need another TR. Towns only have 14. Let’s talk hoop. Yeah. Towns is average 22 and 12. We know how that get. He’s a what? 22 and 12. He’s averaging 22 and 12. Yeah. Of the center for the New York Knicks. As your second option as a second option. Second option should be averaging 25. Really? Really? Man, that don’t sound like hoot to me. That don’t sound like hoot to me. You’re 22 and 12 for a center in the New York Knicks. For him that plays on the sounds like hoop to me that plays on perime. He’s getting to it. And let’s say he playing bad. That’s 22 and 12 on. He’s not playing great. I thought we was talking. I thought we was talking. How much is Brunson averaging? 48. He being complain. Brunson’s averaging 28. Yeah. It’s not going to win your final. Damn. That’s not enough to win a That’s not enough to get you there though. They get you can get there all you want. They got all you want. They have not they have not got there since 1999. But I think they have experience on their side as well. Like the last few years how it’s went down. They get back to that point with a different voice in the locker room. What? Mike. Oh, Mike Brown. That different voice. And I think guys would be fresher now. He’s not wearing guys out in that regard. playing guys [ __ ] 42 a night uh in the regular season team [ __ ] so spread the and relying on other guys so I think the Knicks have a chance to come out of the east I do um cuz it’s wide open for them to get back to the finals this year facts so facts I think they have a yeah I think 22 and 12 as a second option is good enough when your when your lead guy is averaging 28 to win it all yeah I think it’s 22 and 12 consistently no to win to win it I Yeah, if he’s not getting I’m not saying they going he’s not even averaging that. I’m not picking him if they were to match up. I’m not picking them right today. I’m not picking them Oklahoma City today. All we going to do is put a bigger guard on Brunson. That would be a good match. All we going to do is put a bigger guard on Brunson like OG and uh they will hear bodies to throw at him. OKC is going to whoop. They going to have to throw a lot of bodies. OKC is going to beat them in five. We having two combos. We having two combos. Let’s merge them into one. No, they have a they have a Yeah. Yes. Thank you. What’s up? I feel like uh they have a whoop ass. This is good for New York confidence and make it to the NC tournament. All it’s about to get over the hump. Like this type of stuff they need. Like they never really experienced winning. They ain’t made it to no. They playing for a million dollars. That’s what they ain’t playing for the the for the real crown. You know what you can do with that? Exactly. And that’s what they going to get. That’s a lot of If they keep it up like this right now, if they don’t get cat the [ __ ] up out of there, you know what’s going to happen. They need to get They need a true score, dog. All I got to do is go put uh go put DB or put somebody on Brunt uh Brunson during the finals and you know what time it is. Wow. That’s all Indiana did, too. We going to just keep throwing somebody at you all day. Ain’t nothing changing. It’s the same [ __ ] Stop playing. They got a heart, though. That’s fine. You can have all that. Them other dudes over there, OKC is not [ __ ] around. Let’s Let’s be honest. Come on, OKC, bro. That’s a young team that won a championship, came out the next year like this. Like, what are we talking about? They not They not playing around out there. It’s going to see. They going to play each other. Thankfully. Well, we will see. So, I guess better go get that boy. Go get that boy. What happened to that boy? Go get uh better go get that boy. I guess now we see what that’s about. Get that boy. We see what that rant’s about. It ain’t even hoop talk. He just want his boy to be over there. He want his boy to be over there with us. New York is good. Listen me. This is what I want. We don’t got to get We don’t got to get nothing. New York better do that. I ain’t listening nothing over there. I’m talking about what New York got to do. You see, I got the Rockefeller. I got the real king on me. You know what I’m saying? I’m talking real New York. What we talking about? Go ask about me in New York at Rucker. Everybody Yeah. Hell. Stop playing. That’s not fair. I said that’s fair. Not fair, but fair looking at a never. He was in Brooklyn. He was out. He wasn’t in New York. Okay. He was in Brooklyn. He was with the Brooklyn Nets. Okay. Well, Captain the season said he was kind of struggling to find the offense. Got course side with Brooklyn. But y’all telling me 22 and 12 is a number two option. Okay. Say that. I’m saying 22 and 12 is a number two option in Adam’s modern NBA. I said it’s good enough. It is good. I don’t think it’s enough to win the finals. That’s all. But I’m not saying they’re not going to get there. It’s just not enough to win it. So, in order to average 22, you got to have some game. You know, you got to have a couple 30. Big state averaging. He’s not never average 20 though. He can get 18 boards. Yeah. He average 20. That’s over there up in got that [ __ ] going average 20 like Yeah. Only two teams in the league that have two 25 point per game scores so far. I believe that is the Lakers with Luka Austin Reams and then the Nuggets with Joker and really Jamal Murray. So there’s the third team. Oh no, they got Brunson at 28 and then two 22 25 point sounds good to me. But you feel like Jaylen Brunson can take this supporting cast. Yeah. Oh yeah. And get them out of the They’re not even playing their best basketball right now. That’s the difference when you talking who look at the look at how everybody’s playing. The only team playing really good basketball is OKC right now and Houston. Houston’s playing really good basketball. Those two teams are playing very good basketball right now. Everybody else is trying to find their way. And once everybody start hitting their stride, you going to start seeing basketball played different way. Everybody’s going to be competing differently. That’s all that’s all I’ve been meaning to say the whole time. And Pitchers have also been playing very very well. So Lakers been playing good too. They hit their stride. that other team go be [ __ ] back to this Knicks squad. So we know Jaylen Brunson, man. [ __ ] the Knicks. God damn [ __ ] trash. Be acting like they the Lakers. Come, let’s stop. Move. Want to talk about OG pushing this [ __ ] and come on. [ __ ] Go to Jaylen Brown. I want to hear more of this [ __ ] We’re building up the tension like as we like. We talked about Brunson. Okay. [ __ ] 22 and 12. But we did talk about Brunson in town. That’s my point. So, the Knicks have their their big two solidified. Uh, but obviously when you look at this team, Brunson leads the way 28 points per game, seeking his third straight allNBA all-star period. Cat 22 and 12. 22 and 12. Yeah. Leading the league in rebounding. Uh, third member up for debate. Knicks are 8-1 since Josh Hart entered the starting lineup. He had a season high 21 points last night. OG starting to find himself since returning from hamstring injury, putting up 16 and five. Then you got Iron Man Muel Bridges doing it on both ends, top five in steals, 16.4 four points per game. So, when you look at this Knicks squad, who would you consider the third member of the Knicks quote unquote big three, you don’t need a big three. It’s interchangeable. I like that. As long as the other three guys do their job night in night out consistently and they doing that and you got a couple guys off the bench doing their job, you don’t need a third score to be out there clogging [ __ ] up, ball stopping, forcing it, right? Yeah. You don’t need another ball stopper. You need somebody that’s going to do his job, be able to get you 15, 16 points a night consistently. You got the other guy that’s going to get you 14, 15 consistently. Do off the bench, going to give you 16, 17 off the bench consistently. That’s what you need. I like that cuz when you look at that, they go back to the old school way when you had the two main guys, then you had your corner [ __ ] that was out there. That’s true. We didn’t know who was going to get the corner today, but I I got the block. I I got it. I got to take care. So you got it came my way today. You got You got Clarkson that came my way today. The OG came my way today. Got MueL. Hey, it come But then you got Josh Hart. You got four [ __ ] that might come their way. Two of them might go off. Yeah. And you we might blow a team out if all three of us get going. But we just need consistency from our main two guys. Make sure y’all do what y’all supposed to do. We got y’all back. I don’t think they could have a third score cuz they style of play. They hold the ball too much. They like OKC, everybody shoot the goddamn ball. But New York, you ringing it up. Bronson picking Rose. Very subtle. Yeah, it’s so stagnant. They can’t have a third. Somebody else averaging like uh who was the third score for OKC? The tall don’t matter. Jad, they can’t have the They got Chad Williams and um Shay in New York. You can only have two. The the ball stop too much over there. All the other points going to come off of corners, corner threes and put backs, but everybody is but everybody and but everybody’s interchangeable. So they they don’t need a third option. They Yeah. The other guy just they all just work hard like lighter lighter workload this season too. We talked about tips last year. This season or last season I want to say Knicks had five players in the top 20 minutes per game. Yeah. This season only two. The starting five. Yeah. Yeah. The starting five was in the top 20. All five in the top 20 minutes played this season. Only two of that starting five. But that’s where the confidence comes in. But do that style win basketball though. Well, you got to you got to you got to let it sustain itself to find out. You we can’t never find out cuz team trying to change up. They trying to change up to this. Oh, we need a third score. We need this. That’s to me that’s the bravado that [ __ ] up the team having putting pressure on that one guy who could be the third option. Hey man, you need to do more. But then you got four guys looking at each other like coach is giving us more minutes. Before Before we was all logged in trying to figure out who was going to play. Now he’s he’s sharing the sugar. He’s like look I’m giving y’all all confidence to prove yourself. Prove that you deserve these minutes. Giving them crumbs, [ __ ] That’s what you for Mike Brown. Crumbs. You giving the other four crumbs. Mike Brown. He giving heart the bridges. And so when we on the corner, do we make good of the crumbs that we get? Of course. All right. So that’s what you do. days. You get you take the brick and you make that you flip that [ __ ] Hey, if you don’t flip it, customers ain’t coming around today. You got to figure it out. Bro, everybody fighting for the crumbs, bro. Yes, bro. Cuz listen, that calls like rips in the locker room. That man, I ain’t passing to that. You know what? We always going to have crumbs. There’s always going to be some crumbs here, but but see what happened. It stayed properly on the corner. On the corner, it’s level up. It’s levels. It’s levels of crumbs. I ain’t eating. I ain’t eating. See, what you can’t have is what happened with that’s what people be like, they ain’t eating. They circulating, right? What you can’t have with the corn [ __ ] the [ __ ] happened to Dallas today when the [ __ ] didn’t swing the ball to deal with like that’s when [ __ ] get but long as that you swing swing it and you’re playing good basketball. Listen, you swing swing it. I’mma do the same for you. I have to. Yeah. If you don’t swing, if you swing and you shoot or fake it, Yeah. I’m going to do the same thing the next strip. If you’re in the corner, I’m Oh [ __ ] He did. Oh, he hit me with that [ __ ] Oh [ __ ] That’s all I’m saying. The fake pass. Yeah. But if they don’t do that, they don’t do that. New York going to be on that. But what’s his name? Bridges. Not Bridges. M Br Bridges. The the young one. The youngest of them. Not He come. He got to get his [ __ ] off. He ain’t got paid like Clarkson and [ __ ] Bridges. But guess what? That’s what his role is though. His role is DaVon Mitchell. He in there to hoop. He in there to defend, to turn the volume up. Now, if he gets going, we love it because McBride can he can get going. He kind of like how how uh Gabe Vincent was in Miami, how Kendrick Nun was in Miami. He wasn’t expecting you to do this [ __ ] But when you do get it going, hell yeah. Good job. But if you off, [ __ ] sit your ass down. But you do need that consistency of him coming off the bench knowing that’s his role to shoot the ball and score and be like the six the main six. Look, we got him and Clarkson. So, who’s more experienced at doing it is, but they’ve been bringing in Brian Moore though. That’s cuz he plays defense, right? Clarkson is just blue wheel. He’s trying to shoot that big. But that’s if we need it. I think that’s what Mike Brown is realizing. Yeah, we need this right now. Jordan, go in for sure. We need this right now. Hey Deuce, go in here and get him via pest. I like that kind of camaraderie that he’s bringing to the team cuz before uh Tibido was just telling [ __ ] what just go just I’mma work you. I’mma work you. Quint Dicki Quint Dicki. So looking at these next squad, Knicks have won eight of their last nine games with point differential of plus 137. Second in the East as they head to Vegas for the NBA Cup semi-finals. Sea. Is this Knicks roster enough or should they look to add a piece to finally bring a ring back to the guard? Not make the finals, but if they want to bring a ring back like I said in the beginning, when you talk when we talk hoop and we talk about the the chemistry and and the longevity of every team catching their stride, the Knicks, what they did last year, how they put that [ __ ] together even though they did OG get hurt in the end? What was our I think that was it. OG went down. Yeah. So, you look at how that all happened and we had a coach that didn’t understand playing a full roster. Those things changed. We beat Indiana. We beat Indiana. But it’s coaching too in the playoffs. Trey Cat. We beat Indiana too. And if we beat Indiana, do you think that there would be a better series between OKC? I don’t think y’all beat Boston if they had a different coach. I don’t think you beat Boston if you had better series than a seven game series. Rashad. Yeah, they would have swept the Knicks in a seven game series. They would have swept the Knicks cuz who got hurt in that series? OG got hurt. They would have swept the Knicks, y’all. Holler got hurt. Cat would have went to Come on, man. But remember y’all was down down there 20 points every game in Boston. Remember you had a different tell you not to shoot as No, that wasn’t the reason why. Them [ __ ] was gassed out. They shot threes over they was gassed out. You don’t remember male Bridges before the series is like, “Bro, can we get some rest?” No, I’m talking about Boston and New York. Me too. I’m talking about Yes. That series they were tired. They were tired and they still got over the hump. kind of coaching and sometimes it is. But what does Mike do? What you said? What does Mike do differently? He connects with the players and try to figure out what they feeling, how your body, all that [ __ ] So, if he can give you that going into the playoffs, it’s a whole different game plan, bro. It’s all coaching styles when it come down to that [ __ ] Yeah. Mr. big. You think this uh Knicks roster ain’t nobody in the East is enough or should they try to bring to get to the finals? Yeah, they have enough to get to the finals. I didn’t know. So, to follow with that, who’s the most expendable core piece if the Knicks didn’t want to try to add another star? You know who it is. We just talked about I mean that’s that that’s what you need. You know, sound is the most all that [ __ ] sound good. All that [ __ ] that’s that’s that all that [ __ ] we sounded telling that’s that sound good. Sound like some college level type [ __ ] But what we talking about right here, you got to Sounds like we always want to trade me somebody. Why I’m always getting traded? We ain’t We ain’t Stop trading me. Why I’m always boom. Leave me out of it. That’s cute. Y’all [ __ ] keep trading him, bro. Leave me alone. Leave me alone after all. You throwing me into this [ __ ] man. I ain’t do nothing to none of y’all. For real, though. productive day here in of course this arena no Gil Gil’s arena woo hopefully Gil’s watching wherever he is Gil hopefully he is I’m going be pounds all day today we would no what you mean we have a lot of beef in the streets right now we don’t need to add anymore it’s very hard out here but let’s keep this thing moving I got your back you got my bad I got Hey, it’s a lot of a lot of He come from a lot of different places.
