Official New York Knicks Season 2023-2024 Thread - page 163

All star votes are international. Mikal plays for the only Chinese owner in the league.

bruh

You can’t be serious

Taking less in comparison to their other offers man you kidding me?? No sh1t Damian Lillard is making more than a role player 🤣

My point has never changed you just can’t comprehend what I’m saying after 7 pages

I told you difference makers don't take less than what their offered - you started talking about superstars who got commercials and shoe deals

then you started talking about Bird rights

Players in OG bracket rarely take a discount, they take their highest offer. It is the key reason he was traded in the first place in a contract year as he's asking for 40 million dollars. If he's such a great player about to be on a great deal why the fu#k would the Raptors trade him?? A) he wants too much money or B) they got more value in the trade its as simple as that man

I would say fine but what about Jaylen Jimmy and Bam. Heat fans don't even go to games.

They're more popular and liked more than Randle

Idk about bam and Jaylens popularity maybe Jimmy with the Jimmy buckets and preseason antics. I'm just shocked that knick fans ain't turn out to vote but when you watch road gms we there

You changed from players never play for a discount to rarely take a discount.

This was the beginning of our conversation and everything I said still stands. I haven't wavered or changed.

You mentioned sources saying OG wanted 40, I pulled the full quote from.the source that stated he'd be willing to take less to play in NY.

You mentioned players never take less than the max, I gave you examples of star players who took less than the max to give a team cap space and save the owners money.

You said non star players, I again conveyed you to look at NBA history and all of the players who took less for a chance to win or for some other reason.

Nothingbinsiad changes. Having OG instead of RJ does do something for this team. Does losing Quick hurt, yes, but that was bound to happen in any move the knicks made to get better. I rather the team committing to paying OG 100 mill over the next four five years then RJ. Quick was never going to get to play for a max contract like he can now in Toronto.

We still have room and draft equity to make a real trade for a star, I don't see how this is a bad deal. We maintain cap space and flexibility to either resign Hartenstein and keep mitch or package him for a potential star. Even if we miss out we have money to throw at young free agent bigs who wouldn't eat a lot of space.

show me the difference maker who left millions on the table

no the fu#k they don’t they can’t recoup that money like stars do 10 mill is nothing to KD in his 30s but it’s a hell of a lot more to OG Anunoby in his 20s

Those guys are also at the tail end of their careers sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars already full of outside endorsements their own shoe lines

it’s a terrible analogy it’s not the same

OG making superstar money is a horrible contract

you keep saying the same sh1t about fit everybody knows that we been saying RJ and Randle cant play together because they have no floor stretcher at the 5 and got 3 lefties

the fact is they traded their 2 best young trade chips for somebody they have to pay 40 million for in a walk year, the same dudes they refused to trade for Donovan Mitchell

again??



for the 10th time it's not about star players star players have tens of millions coming in nonstop







same sh1t for 15 pages now

you dudes just ignore whats being said and start talking about whatever the hell comes to mind

he solid dude an expiring after this year so could be used in a trade but not moving the needle really

for someone 4 years younger making 15 mill less fool yeah

stand on your square and plant your flag that OG at 40 mill is a good contract

Bam has played in 2 NBA finals and Jaylen has played in one. The h0es who follow basketball love Jaylen Brown. Also, both the Heat and Celtics get decent to great coverage.

Hoes dont vote on the all star game

I still dont see the popularity you speak of for bam even after 2 finals. Once again the heat fans dont even show up to games. No asian owner at play here.

I'm surprised that you believe that Julius Randle is just as or more popular that Bam and Jaylen Brown.

Ive been listening to wfan and i wish Evan and tiki would talk more about the Knicks and less about the Jets and Giants. Football seasons been over in New York. While were at it im sick of hearing about Tommy Devito as well

That big market sh1t all hype

Randle & Brunson get covered like we the portland trailblazers

That 3point contest performance last year didn't help. Ju looked bothered to be there.

Oh look a Randle interview
