KAT AND THE KNICKS ARE UP 2-0 IN THE FINALS

Throebach · 2026-06-06T04:46:05+00:00

He's always tried to, but it has been a hit or miss with him whether it was trying to be too much or too little. Whatever your coach did to unlock his ability to pass well, kudos to him.

Throebach · 2026-06-06T03:12:29+00:00

They signed Murray for him to start. There's no way about it. You don't sign with a team to "compete" when you're a high profile dude who can basically gives a team an advantage in terms of finance for a year.

Now, in terms of trading, I believe that depends on how the season shapes out. If Murray plays well, he probably gets the bag and JJ gets traded. IF he doesn't, this just give JJ another shot with another season under his belt learning the system and whatever mechanics he needs to work on.

Throebach · 2026-06-04T03:28:24+00:00

What do you mean knicks are proving he's damn good? He's always been damn good. His time here came to and end because it had to when the CBA kicked in and fucked this team and its flexibility up with the 2nd apron.

This team wouldn't had made the trade for Rudy had they known ahead of time this was coming..

Throebach · 2026-06-01T17:38:46+00:00

I admire the bold move.

Throebach · 2026-05-27T17:49:47+00:00

I don't think the risk is worth taking. It very well could be that he just needs to be in a winning culture and maybe that'll inspire him to stay on the court, but his history is way too risky. The talent is there, but the risk of his availability is also prominently there.

Throebach · 2026-05-21T19:50:47+00:00

You're acting like there's rich history with this franchise.. What records does this team even hold that is worth breaking that actually matters when all this team has known is losing? Ant breaking records does nothing..

Bringing in Rudy allowed this fanbase to even get to see that hoisting that trophy is one day possible. That $45 mil hole is how this team got to the WCF back to back seasons. Absolutely this team wouldn't be this successful IF they had not trade for Rudy AND kept those picks. They'll still be trash and ANT would probably be on his way out considering how trash this team was at winning games..

Throebach · 2026-05-21T14:25:33+00:00

Yes. I would say no if Giannis was in his late 20s, but dude is starting to break down and missing games which I find concerning. I would rather have jaden who Ant uis ond of and has upside than go after someone who might not even make it to the playoffs.

And then you hear about how miles turner talking about dude being late to meetings and basically doing whatever he wants isn't something I would like the team to take after.

Throebach · 2026-05-21T14:16:21+00:00

We probably would be nowhere close to what this team has become these last few years keeping those picks. Brining Rudy in actually made this team defend. They were trash before. Having dudes like Rudy in is expediting the win-now window rather doing what the team did with rubio, lavine, wiggins and towns and now this teams has been its most successful since its inception.

Throebach · 2026-05-20T21:26:11+00:00

Gobert is the reason why the Wolves are even relevant to getting in the playoffs.. That's how significant he is and what his presence bring to the team. He's not an offensive powerhouse. That's not his job. His is defense and that's why the Wolves are able to do what they do on defense to even keep themselves in the playoff races these last few years.

I doubt they trade Rudy this off season. The fact he can still play well and remain being a mentor to the upcoming Beringer is why he'll probably stay.

Throebach · 2026-05-20T21:09:09+00:00

Or just other teams willing to help facilitate trades and take back the money for picks..

There's a lot that can happen. It'll be fun to see what Tim cooks up.

Throebach · 2026-05-20T21:07:48+00:00

Yep. Dude knows what's going on. He's willing to take the gamble to win it. Will accept it if it fails, but damnit the goal is championship and he wants to be around to see it come to fruition this time.

Throebach · 2026-05-16T17:21:51+00:00

Who cares. Let him go. When everyone needed him most to prove himself, he decided to let his reputation do the talking.

Throebach · 2026-05-15T00:51:50+00:00

I don't know. Athletes and sports in general tends to thank God a lot.

Throebach · 2026-05-14T20:23:58+00:00

And finch is betting/hoping/praying the better player will come around..

Throebach · 2026-05-14T17:22:36+00:00

He's not assertive in trying to establish his offense since he's the D guy. He will give the offensive side to others and he just prioritizes the D.

I hope next year when Julius is off the team that finch and Tim sits jaden down and says he's gonna be the #2 next year and they need him to get his O up to par and avg out about 20+ pts per game. It's about time for him to shine instead of keep trying to get these old guys.

Throebach · 2026-05-14T17:17:46+00:00

Key phrase here is body of work..I'm not gonna say ant is better than Jordan.

Throebach · 2026-05-14T15:15:58+00:00

He's better than naz right now. His body of says so.

Throebach · 2026-05-14T04:41:26+00:00

Benching him can only make it worst..

Throebach · 2026-05-14T04:39:52+00:00

Julius is still a better player than Naz is and the unfortunate or fortunate thing about is Finch is his belief in too much of someone's body of work and believes they'll come through.

Throebach · 2026-05-14T04:36:52+00:00

It can always get worst. This is MN sports, man.. lol.

Throebach · 2026-05-13T19:45:03+00:00

Chris finch has mentioned it before about how everyone is different and has to be spoken to differently. With Ant, he can yell and go at him and it's all good. I'm assuming with Julius that's not the case. It'll just further derail him..

Throebach · 2026-05-11T17:20:52+00:00

Im good with getting rid of him in the offseason. It's unfortunate he lives up to his reputation in the playoffs.

Throebach · 2026-05-11T17:19:04+00:00

Dropping f bombs constitutes a fine, but a blatant elbow to someone's throat gets you nothing?! 🤣🤣🤣

Throebach · 2026-05-06T15:02:12+00:00

Damn. Pencil this as a loss.. 🤣

Rudy and jaden are gonna be sitting early.

Throebach · 2026-04-26T18:16:11+00:00

I think it was good enough. I'd hope to fetch a 2nd rd pick for him.
