Them keeping Randle is key. He can absolutely mess stuff up. I find it absolutely hilarious that Knicks fans/podcasters throw him in as a substitute for Barrett like he has value.

Dude really overdoes it. Like, I could believe him having a source that throws him some small tidbits, but he constantly acts like he knows every detail of what's happening.

He didn't even know other teams also hold free agent mini camps.

He also said Rudy's pick and roll defense is horrible... he's hilarious... but in a way that is completely unintentional... very much like the last few Fast and Furious movies (I love them but the unintentional humor is level 10).

I'll take either tbh. They should really be trying to keep Grimes over Quickley... they may try and keep both and keep throwing in picks. I think we get Toppin for sure and a **** ton of picks and likely Fournier. The other pieces I am less confident on.

Also, Thibs won't be the coach there in 12 months. With Brunson/Don/Randle/Barrett... I see a lot of guys that want the ball... I see a lot of dudes who might help teammates a little but not a lot... I see 3 dudes that don't play great defense (though you know Don will play much harder for them). Robinson is cute but he's a cat chasing a laser pointer and has been super injury prone. I think their floor is like a 35-40 win team if healthy.

IF they decide to bend to what Donovan wants immediately by not trading Quickley I will laugh a bit.

I wonder if the Jazz prefer Grimes as well. There’s was a lot of chatter about him during the draft. As much as I like Quickley, I like Grimes too. He’s got three years left on his rookie deal and you have to feel good about him eventually playing 25+ minutes on a playoff team. He fits that mold well.

And might have a little more juice than just 3 and D guy... I also like guys that have shown ability to improve in college like he did.

That’s kinda of central importance:
-He doesn’t make his teams better and his game doesn’t really synergize with others’ games.
-He’s also just not very good.
-His best trait is hustling, but he needs incentive. Unfortunately for the Knicks…
-He got/is getting paid, so the hustling is in relative short supply AND he’s starting to noticeably age. Will be difficult to move. Maybe impossible to move without their picks, so let’s ****ing get them.

He will be our unwitting saboteur.
