I like Quickley and think that he could be our future pg but I think that this year’s focus should be on him just acting as a shooter off the bench. We first need to figure out our mess with Frank and DSJr before we add another pg to the mix as the future. Quickley likely will not get more than 10-12 minutes a game this year unless he proves to be a Steph Curry type shooter. Let him work towards learning the pg position for a year in practice before we force him into that role.

Yeah, I would love to see 24 minutes of Quig.

I’d have to see something to believe that he can play PG.
Just play him in his best position and let him work from there R. The Future is Bright!

Lenny and Squigley from Laverne and Shirly -- sadly Squigley recently passed away. kidding aside, Thibs is not locking minutes for anyone -- they have to be earned Squiggy has played and can play point. that said, i think if he played point RJ would still run the offense (5)(7)

He was a pg in hs and a good passer. All he has to do is bring the ball up find the open man and make his shots. The difference between him and the sht we have is he can shoot— that’s Important. Doesn’t have to start but give him the ball for 2-24 mi utes. He’s a good pg for Barrett cuz Barrett can’t shoot— none of the others guys can either

Can't believe he didn't get any minutes in Game 1. We need shooters and he's one of the few we have. Play him now.

The funny thing is that Quickley has more gravity on the court than any of our other point guards even though he has yet to even take a 3pt shot in a game. As soon as he caught the ball, the Pistons were trying to run him off the three-point line. In fact, he was the only one they really seemed to try to run off the 3pt line. Now that is respect. This kid hasn’t even hit his first 3 and they are defending him like he is Steph Curry.

Sorry fellas. This is pure homerville. Just goes to show how bad the Knicks have become. The board is filled with unrealistic hope. Reminds me of Jet fans.
 Fact of the matter is that this kid should not have gone in the first round. Everyone here is also ignoring the fact Quickley has been seen by coaching staff EVERY day in practice. They know what he can do. This reminds me of every other Baker, Jimmer, Willy etc etc bull****. How bout we give him some time to develop. There is no rush with Obi and Quickley. They are on rookie contracts and will be here for a while. So there is no urgency. Fact is the Knicks are doing the right thing. They need to invest time in Dennis, Knox and Frank. All who are on the brink of getting the boot. And that is not 2 pre season games. It is the only way to improve their value if the FO feels they are not part of the future. Or if they do not improve, cut ties with no regrets. Think that's the plan. Use the beginning of the year to evaluate what moves should be made by trade deadline or in the . We can start the "We Want Baker" chants at the end of the year when the young ones are doing most of the playing.'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020
