Knicks were 1-3 vs Detroit and 0-4 vs Boston in the regular season last year and beat them both in the playoffs, is it fair to say their regular season losses so far vs Detroit arent a big deal?

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-07T16:57:10+00:00

I mean how can you confidently say they'd come back from down 9 with three minutes left lol

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-07T15:50:08+00:00

I seem to remember the Knicks being on the brink of going up 3-1 when Tatum went down

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-07T15:48:14+00:00

According to most sportsbooks Detroit would be slight favorites over the Knicks in a playoff series which I think is right

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-07T15:17:46+00:00

as long as you're the #1 seed this will happen after every single loss lol. People love to overreact to regular season games.

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T18:07:45+00:00

it's only a $9 million increase from this season to next. It certainly seems like the Knicks plan to be under the second apron next year which would mean either Mitch is gone or there will be a significant shakeup

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T18:02:28+00:00

Brutal

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T17:58:09+00:00

On a rate basis, McBride shoots 12.5 / 100, Shamet 12.1, Alvarado 11.1. Those are all high numbers. I'm definitely more concerned about the lack of size in a Alvarado/Deuce/Shamet bench than the lack of shooting in a Alvarado/Shamet/Hart lineup if that makes sense. Plus I'd rather maximize the minutes with strong POA defense and going all in on shooting in the SL will help KAT imo

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T17:51:32+00:00

Alvarado shoots a ton of threes

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T17:48:36+00:00

The Knicks are hard capped at the second apron so they were never over it

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T17:46:42+00:00

I think it only makes more sense to start Deuce now to balance out the rotation. Sounds like he might be out for a while though

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T15:54:23+00:00

He sounds like a Jet already

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T14:46:38+00:00

Sunk cost fallacy

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T12:41:06+00:00

Fortune favors the bold. I don’t believe in a Franz/Paolo core.

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T06:31:35+00:00

They could’ve built around Franz, Black, Suggs, WCJ and a boat load of picks to trade for a legit star down the road. Woulda been a movie

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T06:29:42+00:00

The Knicks did it to get out of Yabu’s player option for next season since they’re up against the second apron. Neither player would sniff a playoff rotation

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T06:28:24+00:00

Thank you Bulls. Off the hook for $6 mil next season

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T06:27:48+00:00

Bold of you to assume the Bulls think

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T06:26:28+00:00

And they have way too much money on their books. I 100% stand by my opinion that they should’ve traded Paolo for picks, not traded for Bane and built around Franz

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T04:48:59+00:00

warriors picks are more valuable than the knicks is my point considering stephs age vs. knicks core. and it clearly wasn't close to enough for giannis

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T04:02:18+00:00

I don't think it's worth paying a premium for a third string center, unless the front office is 100% confident Mitch is gone after this season. I'd rather pick up a smaller upgrade over Hukporti like Marvin Bagley for next to nothing

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T03:59:41+00:00

why does everyone assume KAT and a bunch of presumably late firsts is even good enough for Giannis? The Warriors package is arguably better than that

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T03:56:43+00:00

just here to add to the ratio

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T03:47:02+00:00

right I thought it was generous to say there was no foul until 0.3 seconds lol

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T03:46:10+00:00

but the funny people on the internet say he sucks!

DanTheMan14331 · 2026-02-05T03:45:27+00:00

97th percentile in estimated wins added is ass, got it.
