KP is in his fourth season that he has actually got on the court and in his fifth season in the league. He has missed 157 games already in his career. George is in yr 10 and has missed 149 games. Lets see how this plays out with KP. He has had good stretches before. He has never sustained them.Sambakick wrote:March 1, 2020 07:16 PM +1, for the billionth time Cue the "lots of players take 5 - 7 years to mature" |

The person rooting for someone else’s failure will never get what they want..
Happy that KP is fully healthy and balling out. Unicorn is back! Will go down as the worst Knicks trade in history (and the Knicks have made some horrendous trades over the years) |

I don't hope KP gets injured but I hope he gets a venereal disease. No one says he isn't way talented but I'm still glad he is gone and it is way premature to judge the trade. And even if it equates to the Bargiani one, the dude is still a tool. Cry a river for the schmuck if you must.

The trade sucked no matter how anyone slices and dices it. Truly, truly sucked. Worst trade this train wreck of a franchise has made in quite some time. We are so jaded and damaged as a fan base we can’t even tell right from wrong. The KP trade was all sorts of wrong. The fact the Knicks even allowed for the KP relationship to deteriorate like it did was bad enough.
The Knicks took one of the most intriguing younger players in the world and turned it into crap. How they got there, why they did it or they had to do it matters not. Fact is, they did it. Brutal. |

It was a bad trade because Dennis Smhith hasn't been as advertised and we have no idea what those picks will be yet. You can't show someone a job half done. We don't know what will happen yet so relax. You can't go crazy after every game KP plays well. He played like doodoo tonight if you want to console yourselves. There's that.

KP was 3-17 from the field with 9pts for those still keeping score...

Our team could not handle KP.
We had terrible managers(Mills) worst owner(Dolan) and bumbling support staff. It’s acceptable to have traded him as I imagine he simply would not workout here long term. We just need to keep that open cap space to our advantage at some point. RIP Crushalot😞

KP is no doubt receiving benefit from playing with Doncic and makes trade look worse.
Dallas stepped up and made a good move for that pairing. Let’s see how it pans out over the next few years. |

KP has a great night? Recency bias is alive and well! Something doesn't jive with your confirmation bias? Ignore it! KP was 3 for 17 last night.

But as Gordan Hayward showed KP could fully recover and have a strong yr next yr after a full season. Time will tell how his story unfolds, he can land anywhere from being an injury prone player to a Steph like development after seasoning over the yrs to become an MVP type. Probably lands somehwere in the middle. Fingers crossed Dallas lands us at least one lotto picks, but Doncic doesn't seem like he will let that happen. Will be interesting to see him in playoff intensity/7 game series. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.
