I see jokubaitis basically replacing Drose on the roster next year so we will go in with Brunson, quickley, Rokas and McBride.

I think so too. It’ll be super fun to watch.

So... Where do people see Rokus fitting into the picture here?
I've been openly Roka-skeptical.
Can someone who sees a path to Rokas having a role with the Knicks outline what that would look like for them?
Currently, we have 3 deep at the position, if we keep giving minutes to IQ at PG (which doesn't necessarily need to be so, can backup just the SG) and we're all giddy with Deuce playing 15 mpg like the Tasmanian Devil that he is. So look into your crystal ball, what do you see?

Who knows at this point? I think they are trading IQ at some point, it's just a matter of when. Rokas is about 6'5", so I wouldn't worry about finding time at " PG" or "SG".

Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right. - The Tick

If you look at his numbers, he is not playing better than IQ. That’s all I have to go on, I don’t watch any euroleague. Based on that, he isn’t taking IQ’s roster spot unless they really do trade IQ for a future FRP.

I can see him being the Drose replacement on the roster.

I’m saying the roster spot as the 4th lead guard essentially behind Brunson, Quickley and Deuce.

Rokas fits perfectly with IQ, McBride off bench.

Dude can shoot and handle and pass ball. Tough player. Thibs type player.

Insurance if they move IQ.

You think he's going to come here to be a 4th string PG?

Maybe he’d like to be part of the winningest team in the NBA.

No, he’d be better at running PG position than IQ IMO. Running Rokas, IQ, McBride off bench would be wild D by our 2 guys with solid management and shooting by Rokas. Those 3 guys fit perfect.

Rokas can’t expect to be a rotation player right away, but if any of Brunson, IQ (who plays mostly SG) and Deuce miss time, Rokas would have the opportunity to fit right in. As a rookie, that’s all he should expect.

That’s definitely my expectation for him if he makes it to Knicks. He is worlds better than IQ for that role right now.

But Thibs is prioritizing the things that Quickley brings to the table. Great defense and theoretical shot making. Rokas doesn’t seem like he will have that defensive impact or offensive spark they need. He seems like more of a game manager, at least early on.

In the same way Rose and IQ fit in first season, Rokas can fit too.

He is a baller and good distance shooter.

All these things fit, you are talking like the players are mutually exclusive somehow.
