Knox just needs to reduce playing Fortnite

Really don’t understand how Kenny Payne changing employers can change Knox.

Really don’t understand how Kenny Payne changing employers can change Knox.

I’m guessing it’s the whole “X coach used to coach Y player” connection thing

But yeah Knox is just broke at this point he ain’t gonna explode on the scene or anything like that

 

[ballinsam23]

Knox should've been a 3 year college player. He hasnt improved at all. We'll see a couple of flashes then he'll fall off a cliff again.

 

[donewithjs]

Here’s how the scenario is going to play out. The T Wolves are going to have another bad season. There are going to be Rumors KAT wants to reunite with Kenny Payne but doesn’t want Thibs coaching him, then Half the Knicks fans will be calling for Dolan to Fire Thibs if the Knicks aren’t a sixth seed or better so we can trade for KAT. Eventually Dolan will break down and fire Thibs halfway through season 2 and KAT will be traded to another team or remain with the Wolves.

I’d give my left nut for someone like Dame Lillard man

Good lord

 

[pr0phecy718]

He could've been a knick in the past but that ain't happening anymore. Same thing for Booker lol

What about Frank?

 

[floodarea]

What about Frank?

He already a Knick for life

My son don’t require a sacrifice

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I like that we’re focusing much more on a robust staff and development. That’s all I really ask. Development has always been our problem. I’m hopeful that, at the least, the tough love Kenny Payne and Thibbs brings can only help. We’ve tried the players coach thing to develop our guys and it didn’t work.

 

[ny mavurs]

Can’t develop players if we keep trading them away

Acc. to @cleantheglass, last year RJ Barrett joined Ben Simmons, Jared Allen & Rudy Gobert as the only players to see over 1500 minutes & be in the top 10% in both frequency of shots at the rim & shooting fouls drawn.

Yessir KP! Nobody works harder and more committed to the players. Love it!

 

[Mark Antony]

As ****** as we are I dig their commitment to adding black decision makers. That's where the real diversity begins.

 

[floodarea]

I miss STAT too

 

[8pm at msg]

Randle can still get the hell out though, playing like LeBron with a lobotomy. Tired of him.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I dunno man. I want to see what each of these players look like with this new coaching staff. Even Julius at this point. I think the main issue last year was the structure of the team and the coaching seemed to rely too much on him. Hopefully Thibbs is more thoughtful than isolating Julius Randle at the key.

 

[Hahahaha]

Zero interest in Randle, he's gotta go.

 

[donewithjs]

Zero interest in Randle, he's gotta go.

Need Randle to be our new Zach Randolph

 

[8pm at msg]

If Randle realizes he's at his best 15 feet and in then sure. He obviously isn't supposed to be a number 1 option.

I'm not really worried about RJ or Mitchell. RJ just has to work on his shooting touch and that'll do wonders for him. Mitch needs to stop with them over the top crossovers and work on not fouling out lol.

I've lost hope for Knox. Frank works hard I think guys like Thibs and Payne could get the best out of him.
