Not so much that he doesn't want to play, he is just enjoying collecting that paycheck while not playing.

Then watch him turn cancerous riding the bench behind Randle and Hart. Yall act like you don’t know Thibs by now.

Guy is completely unreliable and IMO isn’t and wasn’t that good when he did get on the floor

He was an intriguing prospect like many others, e.g., MO Bamba (and all of our lottery pick, who simply didn’t materialize

For the record, I like him as player for knicks but can't stand religious Zealots as they can disrupt a lockerroom.
I read a fake ass blog suggesting Mavs could move Timmy for him but Timmy off the bench is kicking ass for them.
How great would Issac and Kyrie have lockers next to each other?

Is he "disgruntled"? He want more?
Orlando is doing very well. Why do they want to move him? Who takes his minutes?
Does orlando have a bit of a glut at guard? Why bring in another?
I know you guys are spitballing, but what motivates Orlando to move him? What do the want or need?

He is making 17mm a year and they won't want to pick up his option for next year. Fournier could help them and given he's stuck behind a few guys it makes sense to move him. I think they will move him, not sure what they will get our if Fournier's enough, but as we think about moves we could make with Fournier's expiring, Isaac offers something to our bench that could have value. The idea of a backup 4 and someone can help us with matchups against Kristaps/Giannis is what I think is interesting.

Ok, what is the make up of the locker room? We got family guys like JOsh Hart and Randle so I take the Zealot.
If we got hard young guys that party hard and listen to objectionable urban tracks and Issac will get upset about it then I go
with the wife beater.

Thank you for responding. Interesting response btw!

I wasn't thinking about Miles Bridges as an option, but why not.

The goal is to build a championship team and if Bridges is the missing piece, go for it. But I doubt Leon would do that.

You think the FO are kicking themselves for not including Grimes? Todays game will dictate a lot about this team. How they rebound? Has Thibs lost the locker during moments of controversy / losing. It's easy when you winning. Lets see who steps up. Lets see if Randle continues to play like an All Star.

Brunson is our rock and should be an allstar this year.
But how far we go is on Randles broad back. His health, his attitude, and focus is the biggest factor.
When on point, he is a massive force. Not saying he can carry us all the way. He can carry us to conf. finals.
until then, fair or unfair he will be measured and judged by that.

Over the summer was the time to take that flyer on Isaac. Different player on the bench that reduces positional scarcity to a small degree. Now, you are just blocking that salary from being combined in a further deal. On Feb 9, we can discuss it further.
