Knicks Rookie Tyler Kolek Receives HISTORIC Long Term Contract… | Knicks News

[@kdnofyudbn5918]

When the Knicks nabbed Tyler Kolek, I was so happy! He's got high basketball IQ, strong work ethic, 18 assist in one game alone, which tells you that he gets all the players involved. For three seasons he was top in assist in the East. has a nice step back 2 and this season leveled up on his 3 point shot. But his slick passing is what I like the most while running down the lane which is hard for anybody to do. It means that he has to spend a lot of time with his teammates working on that.

[@Grimmes12]

Let’s hope he is as good as IQ for that matter

[@stephan-kp7hn]

Locking Kolek up for the next 4yrs is a very savvy move. This tells me that the Knicks organization is serious and moving in the right direction.

[@donovanjaden1617]

This kid is the real deal Knick fans are going to be surprised

[@East-sideSavannah.G-streetboy.]

Our fan base said this about jeremy lin Langston Galloway burkes mudiay grimes iman shumpert n every other young guard we've ever had as it that many teams would skip over him twice in draft guys like brunson, Draymond green, ben wallace, n dennis rodmen dont come around in the 2nd rd often .

[@Oz-12]

Doubt it

[@pistolpete7958]

I’m so ready never thought he was falling to us it’s the exact pick I wanted since the ncaa tournament

[@dfacedagame]

@@Oz-12 guess you don't watch College BBall. Best floor general in the draft

[@m.h2839]

Let's go new York Knicks

[@Pharaoh_Lucifer666]

🔥🔥He was one I wanted them to draft.. As this don't surprise me.. I am just happy we got Him 😎😎🔥🔥

[@evenbest4952]

The guy sounds confident. I'm ready to see what he can do. I hope we have a Steve Nash type of player.

[@Rodxyou]

I guess, the NY Knicks see 👀 Tyler Kolek as the next young "Steve Nash" or "John Stockton". They have faith 🙏in Tyler. This "kid" gets "BIG MONEY"💰 from his team. Love it; 😍❤🧡🍎🗽🏀

[@essammozeb5412]

I love this pick I want him we got him thanks Leon and West in thib

[@apap1586]

Tyler kolect looks like an actor from a 1980s slasher film.

[@billseifert8186]

😂😂

[@johnmirzoeff]

omg i watched kollek every freakin second at marquette. he is INSANE!!!!! there is NOTHUNG he cannot do. get ready guys this will be quite a ride

[@kevintaylor5954]

Maybe they gave him the money so if they trade him they won't have to add something to the package to make up for for how much he would normally have gotten. That means that kid overseas turns out to be excellent then when they trade the second round pick that just got the money they don't have to add anything to the pots

[@jeapercreeper6280]

I thought the same but hopefully we keep him

[@djsthemetereman]

Wow! They gotta believe in him to give him a contact like that. Lets Go Knicks

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Absolutely! That's a huge sign for future 2nd rounders as well too. Great moves by Leon Rose & this Knicks front office. Thanks for watching! 💯🙏🏾

[@MournfulNetsFan68]

@@TheKnicksRecap I have a question bro why did you guys trade for Bridges like he’s a superstar?

[@carllemke4622]

This kid might turn out to be something special now if only we could find someway to fleece the Jaz for that center they got over there we would be in good shape

[@seds94]

This sends kolek a message. Great move by the knicks

[@denzomalenko]

Tyler Kolek is a leader! Exactly what a team needs as a facilitator! Get ready to see this kid take this team to a chip next year!

[@EmileoCruz]

Nah he isn't take us anywhere he's coming along for the ride. Brunson is already that guy

Hi Troy, you got hyped on the Knicks. Ready to start the season!

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Absolutely! So excited for the team we have! Can't wait for the season to begin! Thanks for watching m! 🙏🏾💯

[@jimmynibbs6746]

I agree that Kolek has tremendous upside, but it’s possible that the same can be said about the center we drafted, Ariel. Granted, he’s still young but he does look good and he could be the center that we’ve been looking for. Folks need to take a look at him.

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Ariel is gonna be a beast! I definitely believe he has talent. But Kolek getting this contract, he deserves some praise as well. Knicks really see something in him. Him being a 2nd rounder too, makes me extremely excited for the future for NY. Thanks for watching! 💯🙏🏾

[@roblayman9433]

Don't know much about him but thanks for the update I will look at him and I agree we need a Center

[@Nabarexist]

Great signing

[@user8-artI-9167-ama]

If Kolek is the real deal off the bench pg behind Brunson then McBride is expendable for trade. McBride & Sims +2nd round pick for Kessler and Keyonte George. Salaries and pick works.

[@Griff-kf4kb]

Good for the kid . He got paid, but did they think he wouldn't sign a 4 year deal for less than historic money??? We need every dollar for a center.

[@stephan-kp7hn]

The Knicks got it right. Leon Rose and his team has done a remarkable job throughout the entire draft process and they’re not done yet. Go Knicks!!!

[@user-kx2yu3zn4v]

He named JB FIRST

[@michaelcauljr1970]

Something tells me he’s gonna be like the next STEVE KERR JOHN STOCKTON & A YOUNG LARRY BIRD/ GO KNICKS

[@alanalford4702]

Now Thibs gotta play him Troy. Another slamming podcast. What happened to the And Now Head shake let’s get into it lol. Loved it. AA

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Haha. The head shake has evolved since last time! Appreciate your support, thanks for watching! 💯🙏🏾

[@jackbickel4655]

I hope he gets a chance to play

[@timothysnuggs7151]

I’m starting to really like this kid.

[@KevinWilliams1231-w2v]

I see a John Stockton in the garden a few years

[@jiggajayp]

We have to get Walker Kessler to grow with baby Brunson Tyler Kolek!!

[@samuelvillanueva9956]

Bro I just watched a Marquette full game and this kid looks better then what jalen Brunson looked like in Villanova

[@East-sideSavannah.G-streetboy.]

Wheres his championship because brunson has 2 @ nova so he cant be better then brunson by a long shot 😂?

[@Grimmes12]

By your logic Penny can’t be better than Horry cus Horry has more chips than Penny smh@@East-sideSavannah.G-streetboy.

[@crystaldevore9676]

Yes!!!

[@lloydhamilton5304]

Yes indeed

[@melo7351]

Major key 🔑

[@taemac10]

Just the smart thing to do 🤟

[@codee-music]

Those thinking Kolek isn't getting minutes needs to get off that hard liquor. This is a Thibs pick to backup Jalen.

[@outlaw6]

My only thing is are we going to extend Jalen Brunson this off-season because he was set to take $100 million pay cut I don’t know if that’s still on the table

[@en.4392]

Don’t understand why teams are pushing big contracts on rookies?

[@mikemiller2509]

He is a wise investment so let’s watch him go

[@bjmartin1215]

Not worried about those first round picks at all.

[@day-trishad3937]

Not the most a 2nd round pick has ever been signed to.

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Guaranteed money wise* 💯

[@user-kx2yu3zn4v]

GREAT job Knicks but WE STILL NEED THAT KID FREE UTAH

[@latiefthomas1655]

That's why they ready to trade Deuce b cuz they want him to come behind Brunson

[@jasminemartinez648]

If the put him for a center and trade Robinson there I going to be amazing d for the team if he was good in college

[@alanalford4702]

Duran or Kessler

[@acsaiyanbalce4610]

I’m hoping he translates well to the NBA and non injury prone..

[@makulitzky]

It all comes down to Thibs if this kid will see the court

[@hithere9495]

Knicks logic: “Bronny got a contract, so let’s give this kid one too”

[@bjmartin1215]

He'll be better than a lot of first round picks.

[@michaelzavala6619]

You can put him in as a third string center is Robinson gets hurt coming off the bench

[@bjmartin1215]

Thibs needs to let him play.

[@cgivensldr]

He reminds me of Caitlin Clark.

[@TheTruthHurtsPodcast77]

Probably means deuce is on the move🎯💯

[@japnitsingh5521]

Do this mean McBride and 2nd rounder for Kessler?

[@darrengale4429]

Troy, didn't Bronny sign for more money??

[@als4586]

Emmm LeBron impact

[@TheKnicksRecap]

Guaranteed money wise, Kolek is above him. Not sure if Bronny signed for more overall though. Thanks for watching! 💯🙏🏾

[@alanalford4702]

He will be one of the Surprises of the draft. Now deal Duece for Kessler and we need nothing

His passing is absolutely crazy. He is a lefty for sure. But that doesn't mean he can't take someone off the dribble. That shot looks nice too. He his all the skills to be great in this league. IMO. Thanks for watching! 🔥💯
