I will go on the record by saying bad trade. They know something we don’t
The big Ragu is gone and 3 times All-Star Randle is gone. GO KNICKS
I have complete trust in Leon Ross and the front office but this trade I do not like at all.
SAME.
Leon Ross oss ??????
Leon a joke
A joke? He's the best decision maker for the Knicks In 25 years.
Name me a better offensive big man that they’ve had since Pat Ewing. I’ll wait
This deal makes absolutely no sense from a durability standpoint. Yes, Randle's coming off a major injury. However, he's definitely been far more durable and less injury prone than a player with bad knees and ankles in KAT.
I MAY BE WRONG BUT I DO NOT THINK KAT IS BETTER THAN JU HONEST TO GOD I DONT
Kat is soft like cotton candy
He isn’t any more Julius surpassed him 2 seasons ago he is a better rebounder ,passer ,and just as good as a scorer smdh timberwolves might reach the finals now fr
I agree but this wasn’t about who’s better. KAT is under contract until 2027. We were most likely losing Randle after this year. Between needing a center and wanting to cash in on Randle, this happened. I don’t mind KAT for Ju but Divo? I’m sick
You guys look at numbers and say this guy is better lol. Its not about numbers when making a team its about fit. First KAT is a much better shooter than Ju KAT is a 40% 3 point shooter, therefore the floor will be much more spread for jalen, and KAT can play center which knicks need rn. And Ju never showed up in the playoffs
He isn’t
We all loved Donte and tbh Idk how this will work out but We just added another star so let’s go win the east!
Towns is soft.
The Knicks got better. Their floor spacing is much improved and Thibs can now play OG at the 4 with Bridges and Hart on the wings. And looking down the road, they can move Robinson to a team that needs a defensive big in exchange for role players, picks, or both. Call the Pelicans, Leon, see what's up with Jordan Hawkins.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@NuLORD66you’re a clown, this was an excellent trade. Learn basketball.
and they have 0 depth
@@clutchbeyers Which is why I said you move Robinson for role players. I.Q.'s have taken a steep drop around here...
I'm sorry, but I don't like that trade. I don't think it's a good one at all. We lost DiVencenzo and Randle? That's not cool. I'm sure KAT is a very good player, but still, I don't like that trade. That's just bogus.
Great analysis
@@shiznitshnitzel4right? Why do people comment when they dont understand spacing, and fit
@@shiznitshnitzel4😂😂😂
@@shiznitshnitzel4🤣
Big Ragu is just sauce. Kat is better than Randle
Good trade by the Knick front office. I love that they held onto Mitchell Robinson and "Deuce" McBride. Towns can replace Randle's scoring and on the Boards. Bridges, McBride and possibly Shamet can replace DiVincenzo's outside shooting. I want to see how Towns plays with the "Active" Bigs ( Anunoby, Achiuwa, Sims, Robinson, Morris?) The Knicks have. 🏀
Huge mistake! Only thing I can think of is Randle wants max money and won't take a discount. Rather than let him walk in free agency, trade now so teams don't think we are desperate.
We desperately needed a Center that can score and shoot three (floor spacing). Also we acquired MK and have OG to solidify the defense and scoring
lost our best shooter tho.
Randle on a contract year = selfish and will try to do too much, erratic, had issues with fans, didnt perform in playoffs. DiVincenzo i know it hurts but he was coming off the bench this year and it was going to be very difficult to get him minutes. His value is overblown because of his career season last year. Dont get me wrong - i love him. But this opens opportunities for Deuce to step into that 2 guard role, a guy that plays extremely good defense and performed well in the playoffs. It also opens opportunity for Kolek to get minutes, which is very exciting. Also, Randle couldnt shoot 3's consistently, often times being in the lower 30% range. KAT opens the whole floor. He is one of the best 3 point shooting bigs in basketball, and has shot 40% or better in over half of his seasons in the league. This makes Brunson unstoppable. How will teams possibly defend the Knicks now? Think about it. This really changes the identity of the team and makes us match up against Celtics and Pacers so much better. This is a win for both teams, but i am on the side that it benefits the Knicks more. We should legit be thinking - championship or bust. Dont be afraid to say that Knicks fans. It feels good because its true. We stay healthy - we are going to the finals.
forget champ or bust just ecf or bust thats all
Towns is a "versatile" Scorer that's going to fit in well with this team especially running the " pick and roll" with Brunson.
@@joeldawriter the window is now. Ecf isn't good enough. This team is built to win it all
@@1redmazda11 "exactly"
@@shiznitshnitzel4 It's a three-year window. Then the Knicks will become the Suns, Celtics, Heat, Pelicans, and Nuggets and forced to make major changes due to the details in the new CBA
Lots of keyboard GM's here. This is a great fit for the Knicks just like OG was.
Hold on did they win something when they got og?😂
@@Frank-mt2hf Knicks record with OG Anunoby is 26-6 in 32 regular season and postseason games.
💯
Listen man me got Bridges took time away from Donte we needed a big and got a all star caliber player in towns I feel like we are top 2 in the east certified with this trade a healthy og is the key 🔑
Feel bad losing Dante but getting KAT just added the cherry on top.
With the Knicks, it's always something !
M0ron, this was a great trade
Yes it's something good now that we have a competent front office.
I'm not liking this trade at all.
@@Tj11813 You'e a clown and clueless about the game of basketball. KAT is a game changer and easily makes Knicks championship favorites.
@@ladistarthis ninja said Kat is a game changer 😂 casual talking reckless 😂
Minnesota lose this trade.
Gersson Rosas win
Yes we will miss Randle, however we have guys that can play the 4, we didn’t have a center, let alone one that can space the floor, score and shoot 3’s. This now allows JB to make more drives to the basket and the other team has to deal with the inside out game that the Knicks will bring with the line of; JB, MK, OG, Precious and KT!
Randle? i miss Dante more.
Minnesota won this deal. If Kat put his big behind in the paint & not rely on 3s, this may work.
Tom legit had been coaching them same players on different teams his entire career lol
Rose believes Towns is better fit for NY , great idea IF he stays healthy ,!!
Championship here we come Dominicans around the world like me feel it 🗽🫶
What an unbelievable trade!
Leon Rose is an absolute magician!
Acquiring Brunson, Anunoby, Bridges, Hart, Towns plus you still have McBride, Robinson and Achiuwa and now the depth guys Payne, Shamet and Morris make a lot more sense - the team is eleven deep. Maybe Kolek will make it twelve.
Gave too much for a softy like KAT, lost a special three point player off the bench in big Ragu
Al Profit from Detroit???
Not even October yet 😮
tevo is a genius
Big trade
Yeah complete trust in Leon Rose and this front office but sorry I don’t like this trade at all , losing Randle yeah I mean honestly he was gonna be the odd man out but losing DiVincenzo was absolutely awful and our best 3 point shooter too smh
yea man Dante hurts.. Randle was dead weight for me anyways..
KAT shoots over 41% & is a modern stretch 5 & versatile player.
You gained a better shooter.
@@JAHistheONE losing our best shooter hurts.. KAT WITH DANTE would have been great.. now Kat is our best shooter?.. how bout having more than your center.
Trash trade, Knicks lost big on this one and probably cost the ECF. Rose apparently doesn't know when is good enough to stop. KAT is soft and will crack under the NY pressure. Donte and Julius were hardened and proven. Shame I was so hyped for the new season too.
same kat that just shut down the joker in the playoffs randle never did that
Losing Donte makes Bridges and Hart considerably less productive.
I have a feeling they will end up trading KAT for a contender like the MAVS in the future for many role players, because he will not fit in with the Knicks. He is not the type of player they need.
I AM FOR THAT if they is the case.. Losing our best shooter hurts.. Hartenstein too.
You’re silly! KAT is exactly what the Knicks needed!
He’s a floor spacing big who can shoot & is versatile offensively. Massive upgrade over Robinson.
The Knicks need to build better depth at the bench. The starting line up is Elite & championship caliber.
@@JAHistheONE he's silly? well if you have to resort to name calling because of another mans opinion than you are the truly silly one with no validity to his argument.
@@JAHistheONE let our logic speak for you. why call his opinion silly? that shows how SILLY YOU ARE
I think based on UA-cam & Twitter, 100% of fans don't like this trade, but we trust Leon Rose for what he has done. So I guess for now, trust the process. So sad to lose Donte, we really don't have a consistent gunslinger again on the Knicks. Donte was our Curry!
Every body slammed the Knicks for the iq and Barrett trade . The Knicks still got the best player in that deal. Knicks get slammed again but they still get the best player in that deal
I like this trade not because of Randle but because now the Knicks can handle the 76 against Joel and George... but if Knicks were willing to eat a lot of KAT money contract, then why did not keep IHart? Save a lot of money..but business is business ..sad to see D go 😢in the trade..Randle was a great soldier eating minutes, brought a lot of energy, and excitement, but his attitude was always questioned... KAT number 🙏 please...hope he doesn't crash with Thibs and teammates 😂😂😂
Thibbs dont like Dominicans from the north east, just saying.
It appears the acquisition of Bridges may have made Donte available. Tough for him going back to the bench after the season he had. Will he start for the T-Wolves looking at their roster?
I'll say it time and time again. I'm not happy about losing Randall and DD but it's done and over with. I'm more curious to see how we compete irregardless of what we know about Randall and what we've learned throughout the years about KAT. Let's go knicks
I think it was a bad trade. Donte was the best pure shooter on the team. Randle whom I don’t really like is very physical player down in the blocks we will miss that. Towns wants to play the 4, but Thibs wants him at the 5. Now we need another 4 and you don’t put OG at the 4 with his injury history. Bridges isn’t as nearly as good a shooter as Donte. Now we only have one player who can create his own shot. The other was Randle. Philly has 3, Boston has 3. I think Leon overplayed his had this time
The only thing i know with 100% certainty is i need the regular season now 😂
The Knick fans that are criticizing the trade need to understand this. Leon Rose took the Knicks from being a laughing stock to legit contenders. Leon Rose has done a good job up to this point. Why not give him the benefit of the doubt ?
Randle is terrible this trade is epic for New York!!!!
This trade was unnecessary and awful why did Leone do this?
KAT isn’t even better than Randle. Who is being extremely underrated.
It feels like there is more reasons for this trade than the Knicks wanting a center
Only think KAT does better than Randle is shoot 3’s
Ladies and gentleman as usual it's time to move on LFGKNICKS because I'm not losing any sleep.
Huge mistake
This is coming from a die hard knicks fan we are going to regret this… Kat is injury prone and doesn’t play defense… we need three ball shooting and yea he does provide that but at what cost.. he ain’t like Donte shooting lights out… this was my opinion my C- trade not good…
These fans that dont like the trade you can always root for brooklyn you have options😂
im upset about losing Dante im not guna lie. he was our best shooter and played well within our role. we'll see. Randle was dead weight for me anyways.
Julius randle is trash wtf there where no better trades out there
the loss of randle means nothing --- they did better without him all last season- donte hurts
I’m just torn we have good chemistry so why mess with this
It takes two teams to make a deal. Wolves wanted Donte.
Randle is a liability and dante can be inconsistent
The Knicks bent the knee.
😢 this some 🤬
Gg wolves
For people saying Julius is better than KAT yall gotta stop it lol Kat is exactly what this team needed, a big who can space the floor, solid defensively and can switch to the 5 with ease, obviously losing Donte hurts because its a big part of our bench depth gone and obviously the Nova Knicks arent in tact fully anymore but the next guy (shamet i think is gonna be the guy) has to step up and hit shots, the big thing i will say about this trade im kinda iffy about is now having to start OG at the 4 idk if he can hold up as a 4 for very long so thats concerning but overall this trade makes the Knicks better
KAT is soft and doesn’t play D. He also will foul out by halftime. Godspeed, NY.
Not Donte😢
If the Knicks was gonna trade all their picks for Bridges, & trade Randle & Devo, then why didn't they trade those players & picks for players like Booker?
Booker and brunson would of been a tiny ass backcourt.. and booker doesn't play defense.
@@Deasnuts1 Booker is known for being a defender. The Suns were a very good defensive team during Monty's time as coach there.
Booker is a legit first option scorer which takes less pressure off Brunson with his herky jerky style of play on offense. Can you imagine having an offense that has Brunson as a SECOND option? Mitch, Precious, OG, Booker, & Brunson ... that's a solid five.
@@Deasnuts1 And isn't Booker 6"5? That's not small.
@dn2976 i disagree.. not saying i love the kat trade either. I think both booker and kat both soft 🤷♂️
@dn2976 6'2" pg 6'5 inch sg.. thats severely undersized in today's nba for a backcourt.
