[Popper] “Whispers around the league have begun to speculate on the possibility of the Knicks moving Towns. His name surfaced when the Knicks discussed the chance of a deal involving Antetokounmpo, but now league sources say talks have involved other teams including Memphis, Orlando and Charlotte.”

Never should’ve traded Randle and Donte fml
$55m a year for a 7ft Trae Young with rebounds for assists
Never want to see his horrific straight line drives and whining for fouls while not getting back on D again
JB
Mikal
OG
JJJ
Mitch #BringDefenseBackToTheGarden
Memphis is definitely JJJ related
Orlando? For who? WCJ?
At least Jaren Jackson Jr won a dpoy. Orlando has some defensive players. Get me a lock down defender. I don’t care if we trade Kat for a CONE on offense. As long as he can stabilize our defense then he’s better than this fuck. I have supported Kat for a long ass time. But there is only so many times this team can disappoint me and disappoint me and have embarrassing effort related losses and tell me that this is a championship core.
I’m done with him
Honestly W-L record aside, looking at this team the coaching is bad and the players are soft. We could’ve been 9-2 the last 11 and we’d still need trades. I don’t believe Kat is a player that will win a championship unless everything goes right. I will root for his success as long as he has a knicks jersey on but he makes the same mistakes he used to make as a rookie and that will not change. Then he is just one of our many problems and this is coming from a fan that is a die hard knicks fan who like many of y’all has watched almost every game when we had zero hopes for a champion.
Moves need to be made. Consolidation moves, i’d even move Kat, Mikal, potentially even OG for any assets we can. Yes the giannis talk is overdone now but make those trades get young guys, picks if you can, make a package that the bucks can’t refuse. Yes our “depth” will be ass but a player like giannis is more valuable than those three combined.
GET ME FUCKING GIANNIS
would love jjj man
Christ
I never would’ve thought Mike Brown was going to turn into the world’s fucking largest pumpkin after the nba cup. We were top 3 (I think ) offense, top 10 defense? Wtf happened???? Like, this is fucking BAD and idk if different players make any bit of difference.
Thank Christ.
If we want to move KAT, might as well move him back to Wolves for Gobert and Donte and reinstate Thib as the coach cause now he got a good defensive center lol.
I think FO and fans has been too obsessed with the idea of 5 out offense that they completed forgotten defense matter.
Real talk, Metal bats 2023-24 Knicks (the season before IHart left) was better than last season and this season roster and we did it without Randle, a 20ppg player.
Bring defense back to MSG.
Do it
Start whispering about firing mike brown into the sun
Charlotte?
I’m ngl yall I love me some KAT. I really do. He’s a great person. I love listening to him speak, he loves and cares about his fans and people in general. But he just has not been playing good basketball and it fucking sucks 🙁
Crazy nosedive this year has been for him in NY
we’ve moved past whispers
Charlotte is interesting, I’d be keen on both Lamelo Ball and Brandon Miller. But especially Brandon Miller due to Lamelo’s injury history.
Charlotte? 😭
There’s no way they pull anyone of value out of a deal for him
We need to put defense first imho. Put more trust in OG,Mikal deuce etc offensively
Where is this from??
Good. Go. Get rid of him.
wow makes me want to THROW UP!!! You have to trade whatever it takes to get Giannis, why are we discussing another KAT-esque trade. Jaren Jackson??? That’s the answer? Cmon
The bucks ain’t taking towns in a trade for Giannis now given his garbage performance this year but I’m definitely in the get rid of him at all costs camp and also fire brown .
Damn, rumors of KAT for Giannis to KAT for maybe some other dudes you’re willing to part with…
Big fall in 3 weeks.
Bridges is going under the radar with KAT getting all the blame. We traded more assets for him and he hasn’t done shit. This just proves what I was saying last year. Leon made a mistake on both of those trades. Thibs took the blame, but firing him was probably mistake number 2.
I like it. A lot of people saying bring back thibs but honestly a starter only rotation will never win a chip. Not saying browns system will either though
Maybe thats why he’s falling down on the floor all the time because he wants to stay, and the team doesnt want him to leave so their morale is down. Now that makes sense.
Honestly, I’m not against KAT. If we can get Giannis for KAT do it. Otherwise I say we keep him and fire Brown. Whole team is down bad, not just KAT.
It’s funny how everyone is blaming Kat, and he truly does deserve some of the criticism, but the current issues go beyond just one player.
We already don’t rebound the ball enough why go for JJJ who averages 5
at this point I’d be fine with JJJ for KAT
Send KAT and Kolek to Memphis,
Grizzlies send Ja and filler contract to Bucks,
Bucks send Giannis and Turner to Knicks for Ja, Bridges, Diawara and couple pick swaps we have in 2030 and 2032.
ok so lowkey i think these whispers have been around a while…I mean, aside from all the Giannis chaos fantasy madness, some parta me has been wondering if KAT got word a while back that he’s potentially on the table. Would help explain his general disengagement
This shit escalated quickly
Need to spam call the Bucks 🥸
We are about to get fucked heavily in this trade
KAT is a good dude and I don’t blame everything on him but our defense is trash. We can’t waste this opportunity to make the team better defensively to make a run. These boys out here playing sad as hell wtf
NOT ORLANDO, I BEG YOU NOT ZION
Ill only accept this if he’s moved to Charlotte so I can still wear his Jersey if I’m at a Hornets game
I don’t think any of these teams could really help them. Kat has his issues but this reeks of scapegoating. Also him declining this much in a year I feel like is more on the coaching.
Why would anyone trade for that contract? I can’t see how we get JJJ straight up for KAT
Is KAT the worst defensive ‘center’ in the league?
Genuinely who tf we trading for? Orlando and Charlotte dont have players to KAT caliber unless they are willing to trade Banchero and picks or knueppel or Brandon Miller. Memphis is obviously JJJ but that is not a good trade for us. I hate to say it but it might be best to fire Mike brown see how far we go and then try to go for giannis in off season. Its pretty clear KAT and Brown do not like each other and it might push KAT to play better. Its insane how fucked this team is all because of the Mikal trade forcing Thibs out (FUCK BRIDGES). I’ve said from before that trade it would be a mistake and I was right.
Nobody from any of these teams could be our #2 unless we’re getting Paolo or Franz
Send him to SAC for Sabonis. Saves us $19m next year and we can resign Mitch without issues. Sabonis is a much smarter player, none of the constant sulking/complaining. Better passer, better rebounder. KAT only shoots better but he isn’t doing that this season anyway so.
We’re so tired as a fanbase fam…. Don’t get our hopes up, idk if we can take more disappointment
