Kevin Durant’s demands:
Sign DeAndre Jordan
Sign Kyrie
Start DeAndre over Allen
Fire Atkinson
Hire Nash
Trade Allen & LeVert for Harden
Hire Nash
Trade Harden
Nets: ok, we just want Kyrie to show up
Kevin Durant:
Ok, well fire Nash & Marks or trade me
**KD IS OUT OF CONTROL**
Jets have Aaron Rodgers
Mets & Yankees are contenders
Giants were just in playoffs
Knicks legitimately can make a run
Nets were just in the playoffs
Islanders, Rangers & Devils are all in the playoffs
The NYC sports market is absolutely on FIRE
Enjoy this bc it NEVER happens
Joel Embiid at 25 years old can’t play in a PLAYOFF GAME bc his knee hurts and the pain was too much for him to go.
Patrick Ewing at 38 years old played 79 games for the Sonics looking like this:
I love how many Knicks alumni have been at the playoff games & how into it they are
Off the top of my head I’ve seen Ewing, Melo, Starks, King, Camby, Kurt Thomas, Tim Thomas, Larry Johnson…am I missing anyone?
Great to see the family come together
Knicks drafted Obi 8th overall
He averaged over 25 a game in the 10 games he played over 30 mins
He always raised his game in the playoffs
Three years later they trade him to an Eastern Conference rival for two future 2nd Round Picks
Don’t you dare tell me this is smart

To summarize the Candace Parker situation…
Parker on TNT:
Jalen Brunson didnt play well in the 2nd Rd
Knicks fans on X:
Huh? Yes, he did.
Parker on X:
Don’t take it personally, Giannis cant hit FTs, I’m a Bears fan & I hope Kyler Murray fans aren’t offended
Knick fans:
Huh?
“If you lose on purpose, you’re a loser and you don’t deserve to be a champion…we don’t do that, we’re not scared of nobody….everyone was like ‘we shoulda lost!’ nah…we win and we gonna win the next one’s too”

@Roommates__Show
LeBron forced the Cavs to trade Wiggins for Kevin Love, ran Kyrie out of town, demanded the Cavs sign JR Smith/Tristan long term and he’s STILL gonna sit here and act like he has a leg to stand on by critiquing the Knicks for drafting Ntilikina over Dennis Smith Jr? Stop it, bro
The entire Knicks franchise turned around when they acquired Josh Hart and put him next to Jalen Brunson
They are now 54-35 since acquiring Hart (with a round won in the playoffs too)
Put some respect on his name, it’s NOT a coincidence
Trading Melo to the Thunder and trading Porzingis to the Mavericks set up what the Knicks are today
Scott Perry deserves a lot of credit for the success this team is having
Dolan hired a basketball guy and it resulted it good basketball results
Give Perry & Dolan their flowers
Knicks are on the verge of two straight BLOW OUT wins with both Julius Randle AND OG Anunoby out with injuries
Jalen Brunson is 110% in the NBA MVP conversation and may get REAL MVP consideration if this continues
Yes, I’m being serious
1. Biggie was a Knicks fan
2. The Nets don’t play in Bed Stuy
3. Brooklyn is not the same Brooklyn that Biggie rapped about
4. 75% of the Nets fans are under 25 years old and can’t even name his albums, let alone recite any of his songs besides MAYBE the first 10 words of Juicy
“I gotta deal with some dude named Hartenstein”
- Stephen A. Smith
SAS is NOT a Knicks fan
Hartenstein is good and is in his 2nd year as a MAJOR rotation player for his “favorite” team
H/t
@knickstake113
Leon Rose is a God damn joke, the Knicks are a joke
Screw everyone
You don’t trade these guys for Donovan Mitchell but you do for OG?!?!
Congrats on being mid for life
“Trade Obi Toppin bc he’ll never get a shot to play consistently with the Knicks” is such flawed logic
The Knicks should be trading the player we all KNOW won’t win a championship (Julius Randle) and see what Obi can do HERE in New York
Hartenstein was kicked in the nuts
DiVincenzo has a black eye
Mitch Robinson had his ankle deliberately targeted and re-injured by Embiid
The Sixers are playing dirty
Knicks need to rise above it and smack them in the mouth with buckets, not fists…save it for the parking lot
Obi Toppin was the 8th pick in the Draft by the Knicks in 2020
His stats in the 9 games he played over 30 mins in his career:
25.1 PPG
5.7 RPG
4 APG
1 SPG
1 BPG
84/145 FG
57.9 FG%
28/31 FT
90.3 FT%
30/69 3PT
43.4 3PT%
Knicks don’t NEED to trade Obi, they need to PLAY HIM MORE
Mets suck
Jets suck
Giants suck
Knicks suck
Nets suck
Rangers suck
Islanders suck
Devils ehhh
Bills don’t count but they suck too
The New York Yankees are LITERALLY the only team in the Tri-State area that are any good.
Has there ever heen a more pathetic NY sports era?
So the botched Porzingis trade by Mark Cuban has cost Don Nelson and Rick Carlisle(stepped down) their jobs…
Meanwhile, Julius Randle is an All Star and All NBA 2nd Teamer for the Knicks and his coach won Coach of the Year…
It is ok to apologize for the slander
I have been saying it for YEARS now but the Knicks need to make trading for Zion Williamson THE priority
Stay away from all of the 30 year old supermax players that dont raise the ceiling high enough for it to put a capper on the teams progression…like Bradley Beal
The Nets had zero points from their bench last night and they had the audacity to try to steal the “Big 15” nickname from the Knicks…
Enjoy Cancun, see you there
The Knicks are now 51-31 (in games he has played) since acquiring Josh Hart midway through last season and he has only missed one game
Respect this man…
Romeo Langford could easily have a better career than R.J. Barrett.
Langford is going to the Celtics (a great place to develop), Barrett is going to the Knicks (not a good place to develop)
@BillSimmons
You were in college last year when the Knicks traded Dennis Smith Jr and a 2nd Round Pick to the Pistons for Derrick Rose?
These Knicks jokes dont land anymore
The Knicks really turned the corpses of Dennis Smith Jr and Kevin Knox into Derrick Rose and Cam Reddish
Things are different around here
They are no longer taking on the retread busts, they are dealing them for actual rotation pieces
Take a step back and just enjoy THAT
Friendly reminder…
Julius Randle was hurt & out for Game 1 of the Knicks, Heat series
In Randle’s absence, Obi Toppin started & had 18 points, 8 rebounds & 1 steal when Thibs benched Obi for the final 9:38 of the game…the Heat won
We still have no idea why Obi was benched
While Oakley & Isola try to tarnish his name for book sales, let’s not forget who the REAL Patrick Ewing was & how much he meant to the Knicks & this city
My official prediction…
Knicks are beating the Heat in 6 games
If Herro & Oladipo were healthy I would feel a little diff but who is guarding Jalen Brunson? Gabe Vincent? Duncan Robinson? Max Strus? 😂 😂
What’s your official prediction?
Remember when Julius Randle was out for Game 1 of the 2nd Round playoff series vs the Heat?
Obi Toppin had 18 pts, 8 rbs, 4 threes in 31 mins
He was then benched by Thibs for the final 9:38 of the 4th Qtr for NO reason
Obi has had no chance in NY to succeed & it’s bc of Thibs
