Sometimes it’s not about stacking scorers. It’s about having the right couple of stars who are healthy for playoffs and having the right role players around them. We need to get Randle healthy for playoffs. And we need one more elite role player. I agree though having the 3&D is so critical. And I do see Brunson as a butler type whose impact is far greater than meets the eye.

We play them March 3rd. I’m looking forward to that game.

I’ll be there. Looking forward to it

This guy mimicking Brunson so much. They gotta team up and be Wonder Twins and active a championship run for the Knicks

He’s probably the best realistic target out there. I still believe OG changed everything because of his size and defensive gravity to make up for a small backcourt. Brunson and Mitchell do overlap but I think it’s still worth it.

I agree. But would also say they overlap in a way that is beneficial, not in a way like RJ Randle Brunson all needed the ball in hands to be effective and so that was a more detrimental situation for all.

With Brunson and Donovan, you have one of those creators, ball handlers on the floor at all times, they both can also play off ball. They BOTH can be an 1A guy in any given game. They both can be closers at any given time. They both can break down pretty much any defense at any given time.

I LOVE the story line and better fit at the SG position that Mikal brings to the table. But I think Donovan is the better higher ceiling player for the Knicks in a championship run.

Completely agree.
