If we take either of the bridges at 8 that draft is an absolute home run fest for us. Knox was really the only bad draft pick by Perry

Mikal Bridges would of fit perfectly at SF. Mikal and RJ Grimes defensivly on the wing would of shut teams down

FIXED

I convinced Mikal here would have been frustrating with the amount of FO an coaching changes. He was my choice. He was the safe choice.

Watching the Memphis game, I was super impressed by Adams. Leads the league in offensive boards and top 4 in screen assists. Even that screen assist number underestimates his impact because he plays fewer minutes than the guys above him. Mordant owes him a Patek Phillipe when he signs that max or super max extension.

Robinson is almost there but he's just not as good of a screener yet.

Nobody guards Mitch, nobody's running plays for him, he's avg 8 pts and 8 rbs, 0 assist and 1.5 rb. Taj can avg the same thing given the minutes...That's his Ceiling

Trying to blame Mitch for the fact that basically everyone on the roster’s three point percentages are down this year is comical. Our players are getting decent looks they simply aren’t hitting. Is Mitch also to blame for our free throw shooting being horrible?

If Mitch stays healthy and keeps playing like a man possessed he is definitely looking at 18-20M per. For a Center, that’s a lot.

We have no choice but to pay him. Letting him walk is the next great Knick debacle

He figured out that defense and rebounds wlll get him paid, not publicly clambering for 3pt shots and changing Agents.

Here is the issue lets be real about who to blame. He is just getting into shape this season after three seasons of Inconsistant due to injuries, on court foul/defense issue, and off court agent drama. The last 20 games or so he is really looking good.
We pay for that and forget all that occured?
We did not extend him for 12.5 over 4 seaons for two reasons:
1 It was not prudant
2 he rejected it.

We don’t know.

I like this version of him and if we are to pay him more its as an unrestricted FA and we can go over cap but only after the season.
WE risk getting out bid or he wants to play elsewhere. Shit happens.
“Great debacle”? Maybe. That could be paying him big money and then he falls back to where he was prior?
This **** is not easy. second guessing is. Won’t know for some time his worth.
We all saw this potential. Question is what is his market value and do our coaches sense he is the real deal or a kid working short term for his payday? Tell me this now and then what the next 4 years are. This **** is not easy.

Hold up, The night before AD schooled this kid on offense, dominated him, over powered him for rebounds.

The only time Mitch has these type of games is against lesser talent.

He still missing clutched FT's (missed the entire rim on one of them).

Still think he's a decent back up at best

I've kind of not allowed myself to get attached or too hype about Mitch cause I have a gut feeling he's getting traded soon. I don't think this regime wants to commit to him long term due to his durability issues. Mitch will probably demand Clint Capela type money around $90M/5years. Honestly, do we really want to spend that much on him when we have so many other needs and are so far away from being a good team? I'm not so sure.

When you compare Mitch to one of the best players in the league he is not as good as that player and therefore a backup?

This is the summation of your thought process?

"The only time Mitch has these type of games is against lesser talent." Thats some high end genius level statement right there.
AD was named top 75 talent. Mitch was not.
Last night he dominated against back up talent.

I am on the fence about him mostly because of the money. I don't care what he wants, its what he can get?
As for being subject to redundant 1248 rants it gets old.

Dude we're not winning games with no mitch Robinson, were like 40+ games under 500 with him in the line up since he's been a knick.

Considering last season success with out him, like 10 games over 500, I don't know how you can ignore that.

I remember when Phil decide to trade melo and basically said "MELO isn't a bad player, we're just not winning games with him" and you agreed 100%.

The difference between you and me is that I really couldn't careless who's on this roster (1 through 15) as long as we are winning.

That's not the way you feel, you want to win with home grown talent..

You think if we won 30 game last season this roster would have stayed together...

Telling another how he feels is not strong debate skill.

that logic would apply to Anthony Davis and his career with New Orleans. The failure of the franchise to win games is the fault of the front office for not putting enough winning players together. Dude has just started to learn his craft.

Mitch is his new Frank.

Followed by IQ being his newer Frank. Or maybe IQ is his backup Frank?

Let's keep ignoring Mitch's stats against the entire league and just say he's a backup because AD ate Mitch's lunch. Sounds about right.
