The Knicks Quickley & Obi Toppin would be 4-0 in the SL Games if the foolish Knicks FO would have selected Jalen Johnson with the 19th pick.

Thought grimes looked better

IQ laid an egg tonight

Quickley has been showing us a decent combo-guard style throughout the SL Games ..
Tonite IQ shot like a blind-man however, IQ hustle-defense and finding Dimes to create several come from behind runs in the game, plus always lighting Obi's confidence on scoring inside/outside as the #1 option .. That was my excitement! I just wish we would've selected Jalen Johnson at 19 in the draft, so the Knicks SL games would've had a trio-scoring-option lineup of IQ Obi Jalen

Cade Cunningham is playing dynamic to get the Pistons their first win in SL Games

We may yet regret bitterly that the Knicks did not tank in the 2020-21 season.

Or we may move on with life, wishing lots of health for a team that when healthy is stacked while also in position for a big trade for a star.

- Kade shot great but rest of his game looks mostly meh (assist #s very low) but I do like this kid
- Quick really needs to slow the blank down and back off on some of his ****iness (that was a brutal floor & shooting game tonight).
- Deuce shot poorly- that’s going to happen
- Grimes I really like his all around game and I like that he’s not all swagger but has some patience to his game. Very solid body (maybe quickness will improve if he loses 8-10 pounds)
- Obi finally showed some mid-range and his rebounding has been solid. Obi like Quick needs to be able to slow down a notch because everything they do is at MAX RPMs. Actual games - especially playoffs are much slower.
- Joku showed toughness, confidence and some range —- great stash ancd grow candidate

Yeah that approach has worked out so well for us in the past

We have been such a dysfunctional franchise that NO approach worked for us for a very long time - not drafting, not free agent signing, not trades. And before we talk about a past, let us remember that right now we have just become middle of the pack. A couple of ill-timed injuries - and we could easily be back in the lottery or get dumped in the first round of the playoffs again.

Actually, even with our current team and its improvements it would take a lot of effort and luck for us to last two playoff rounds. And when this class of draftees matures in 3 years, watch out. All hopes on another major breakthrough by RJ.

My thoughts….

Leadership doesn't show up in the box score but if it did...!

Cade spent every minute talking with his teammates， biggest asset he brings and why he was the number one pick.
