[@everydayishalloweenhaunted5543]

I'm saying this if Knicks were healthy they would've won it all this year! The January team was the best!

[@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo...]

My stand stays the same as it always has, we just need *SIZE* an athletic BIG threat maybe.. and a floor general for off the bench. neither has to be superstars but has to be super efficient at what they do. And we run it back!!.. Ingram a nice target and Markkanen if we don't have to lose size to get him.

[@UnderdogDyanasty7]

I agree. I feel the Knicks need a 5 that can shoot it from 3 and be an offensive threat. They need a 5 that has a marc/pau gasol, brook Lopez, KP type of skillset. I think an ideal piece at the 5 for New York is Hartensteins grit and rebound ability but him being able to shoot it 35-37% from 3 and could occasionally post up. It’s not a another star just a well rounded player at the 5 with JB, Divo, OG and Randle. I would love a naz Reid type of player on this team. I just don’t know who’s the player to target without breaking up the core of the team

[@WeBleedOrangeNBlue]

I'm good on both there both soft how you pick both these undersized players as your goto idk G

[@EBuckNY]

We’ve got Deuce for backup PG. It’s not really running it back if you’re trading for all-star caliber players. What we’d send out would change the team significantly.

[@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo...]

@@WeBleedOrangeNBlue you have to take into the Athletic part.. Not just tall.. viable and available options are at play here.. I can say better names but what's the reality of it happening? .. especially with an East coast team we have to face every other day.

[@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo...]

@@EBuckNY Deuce realistically isn't experienced enough to run an offense yet. Also, we still have expendable assets like Alec Burks, Bogey, Charlie Brown Jr., Shake Milton, and a ton of draft picks.. and if things get crazy good with available players, there's 2 more we can add to that list like Simms and Precious if the size and skill is right.. And we'd still have all of our core and real team! 💪🏾🗽🏀

[@thomasdreher8221]

Note Randle's career numbers are 23 ppg and 9.4 rpg...he does produce. If one wants to replace Randle one has to get at least equal to those stats. Again make Brunson and Randle work on a pick and roll game. They create enough offensive options to give defenses trouble.

[@bemo-wq8pr]

I think you HAVE to run it back not because we are necessarily as good or better than Boston. But because we NEED to assess what we actually have at full strength in order to figure out what we need for the future. Who has to stay, who needs to go. We have to figure that out this season.

[@AYjoy93]

Exactly, there’s still an unknown that’s fascinating to discover about that January squad.

What about Marcus Smart?

[@rafalberry3328]

I listen to people talking about getting all these players but they never talk about what we would have to give up. A super star will cost of too much and the only way we should do that is the player is so good we can't lose.

[@Bless0ne]

After comparing the average NBA height by team. The Knicks had the 2nd shortest roster only ahead of the Golden State Warriors who had the shortest roster. The Knicks could address the off-season by getting taller 3&D defenders at the guard and wing position. I wouldn't mind if the Knicks could somehow keep Hartenstein, draft Zach Edey (2nd unit), and trade Mitch.

[@just.do.something]

Really hope the Knicks hang onto Donte. He showed alot of toughness and not afraid of the big shot. Also, he averaged 15.5 PPG even after coming off the bench to start. He still has room to grow as a player.

[@christylamoure7996]

If he not developing his 1on1 game he cant start . Simple

[@lonniemeeks3852]

GREAT MONOLOG CP

[@KnicksFanTV]

thanks!

[@thomasdreher8221]

I would submit that, unless Gianis is available or moderate prices and pics can secure Bridges, the team should remain the same.. Further I suggest Brunsin and Randle watch Stockton - Malone pick and roll tape all summer, work on that all preseason camp and Kulis develop post moves. Julius can score from the wing, pass and drive to the hole, Brunson cam drain threes, score in the lane and pass to positioned 3 pt shooters. This would force defenses into very difficult choices

[@deshaunwilson4422]

Hey cp i dont think its crazy for you to want Julius or lauri last time i check jules is a 2x allnba performer 3xallster and i think its laughable to even think he's in Julius s class

[@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo...]

CP, you keep saying Jules and the playoffs are a different outcome... Leaving out the fact he's a completely different player than he was last season! Him losing his cool all the time was the distraction.. no sign of that this year and no reason to think he wouldn't have continued that progression and success in the playoffs. His mentality was legit on point! Lol... You gotta let people live and learn. He put in the work and should get a lil more respect in your trade talks. He did all that for *US!!* Ya digg lol

[@KnicksFanTV]

I hear you fam. Mentally he's different but physically? TBD. I'm here to see how this plays out

[@YardOut]

I think the Knicks are going to go into the second apron to keep this team together for at least the next 3 seasons. I think they’re going to draft upperclassmen to develop at a couple of key positions and fill out the roster operating on the fringes as they have so far.

[@wilmaso]

Why would they hancuff themselves?

[@angusmacgyver4894]

The Celtics are always healthy. That helps make tweaks because you can see your flaws from year to year. I hope the medical staff performance gets reviewed. Maybe it was bad luck. If it’s not, let’s adjust that.

Lmao...are u ok? Kemba hurt... Timelord hurt... Brogdan hurt... KP hurt....

[@angusmacgyver4894]

@@jimmyjay689 have you seen other teams. Relatively healthy, if you want me to be precise. That’s a year’s worth of injuries to some teams this season. Memphis had more than that.

[@robertp411]

Who would I like ? JJ Jr and Backup of Jonathan issac. Sure, we need scorers but when it matters it’s about boards and D. If not, get Randle a 6-10, 6-11 backup w a touch and who can bang.

[@Cynthia.W.]

Great show CP and I agree with all your points. Respect to Randle, but I am not sure about him & da playoffs. However, everyone deserve a 2nd chance so unless someone else is available that is better then Ju-Ju, keep him. Though one thing Ju, please dont keep compalining to the refs...just play da game!!😊 NY4Eva

[@davidl8620]

I just don't think we should sell out our stars for other stars. Brunson, Randle, OG, Hart. Donte, IHart. these guy proved to have excellent chemistry and got so much accomplished in a half season of playing together. But I also think we need some more solid roll players. we need a bench PG. Mcbride was great but struggled moving the ball when he was on point. Robinson is a great center but only great when he is on the floor and seems like there is always an injury issue. So Im in the run it back camp but I do understand we need at least some small changes.

[@barbaracaroll]

Id keep Randle we can improve the roster/bench

[@RobertBaricanleynes]

CP Our Knicks must add more versatile players Players that can help asap

[@crystaldevore9676]

We need more size, athletisum, a wing & a big able to defend and create their own shot.

[@RedMayan2012]

Caller says they have to stop chasing injury prone players but wants to keep a 35+million dollar OG. If he's signed he needs load management and Thibs is not the guy to deal with load management he's the opposite. OG will never make a full playoff under thibs. He cant play more the 25 mins consistently let alone 30+. Original Glassman is an amazing piece that makes Knicks a contender but he is fragile as fuck.As a raptor fan we used to think it was just freak injuries and he would be fine for the first few year but thats not the case he is simple not a durable man.

[@DrDetfink]

Salute 🫡 to CP the Franchise & Knicks Nation. The issues is the cap. If you’re going to add the missing piece the Knicks have to make the cap space and part with the pieces. While Randle’s injury is not related to minutes but a freak accident I don’t think the Knicks have to panic but…the Knicks made it to the second round without him. If Randle the difference? Against Indiana sure but not sure against Boston. Is he worth another 4 years at an estimated $191M? 😬 OG Anunoby can’t be trusted to play a full season. Depth and size is also a concern.. what about back up point guard. Leon is gonna have to meditate on this…do the Knicks package their picks and move up to jump in the 10-15 draft slot? Dunno. This isn’t the deepest draft. No easy answers for Blue & Orange.

In my view Donovan is too ball dominant, too small and not a good enough defender to pair with Brunson. I think Bridges is the best addition. Similar to adding a second OG. Can guard 4 positions, hit threes and slash to the basket.

Dumb decision giving away Obi for nothing, if u had kept him, there would have been Julius Randle replacement, Knicks have bad habit of giving up on young guns too soon. After championship seasons in the early 70's they tried to buy titles i.e. Spencer Haywood, Bob McAdoo, George McGinnis, it didn't work then and it will not work now. Follow the blueprint of what the city game is all about. It starts with a foundation, your center,u can't build a house without a foundation,it will collapse,you need strong pillars, your forwards, structurally sound, your guards, put it all together, you've got a mansion. Thats what the Knicks of the late 60's& early 70's did, and look what happened. Real Talk, Facts from a life long Knick fan, since 1968🎉

Thibs is a good coach,gets u to play hard, gets u to buy into his system,but he grinds his players into the ground, burns them out, look at the last 2 years, players could not close the deal when it mattered most. Julius Randle had no business in that Miami game up 25 points in the 4th qtr. Mitch had ankle surgery in Dec. You cannot have a center have surgery in Dec. And try to play in March, O.G. nice player, but to injury prone, do u really want to pay him 40mil? He didn't even play the year Toronto won the chip, look what happened to Jalen Brunson, no help,no depth behind him too many minutes, broken hand, Josh Hart, same thing too many minutes, IHart playin on a ruptured achilles,C'mon fam, and who can forget the great Bernard King,not a Thibs guy, but the end result Burn Out and almost a career ending injury,rehabbed and u still let him go,got nothing in return he had 5 more productive years. I'm just sayin,take a hard look at your coach. Its time to give Sam Cassell, Mark Jackson, a chance, either one would be a good choice, tap into your legends,i.e. Frazier, Monroe,King, Lucas, Bradley before they are no longer here, we've lost to many legends lately, and have not tapped in to that resource.
