- The New York Knicks have seen a resurgence under coach Tom Thibodeau, especially defensively. But through the moderate success, Kevin Knox has seen his minutes rapidly decrease, despite having his most productive season of his young NBA career (so far). In this video, we take a look at what's been going on with Kevin Knox. Hope you enjoy!

Imagine being Kevin Knox and this video shows up in your recommended
His reporting this video then
Then after 10 years when he thought he got over this video, TH-cam algorithm recommended this again...
He tried to click on it and fumbled.
He in the gym working hard 🥶
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
The city of dreams has become the city of memes. I... Loved.. That
Yeah because you’re lucky to not be force to be born a NewYorker
This hurts
U could diss us just don’t make it rhyme bruh
This was poetry
The Knicks are in the playoffs tho?
He should try and carve his game into a solid defender and good corner/solid 3 point shooter. It’ll be enough for him to stay in the league as he can be a Jae Crowder guy that bounces from team to team.
Spurs, Raptors & heat can develop him. But you can't teach effort.
He was playing ok this year but he got cut from the rotation
He was solid corner shooter this year but he just shows no effort on defence. Basically everyone else has at least tried to play hard on defence but he just never did.
Jae crowdee ultimate role player and journey man every teams need
@@andrewboganbasketball7126 Yeah and I think that’s what he should focus on. Not playing defense with his skill set will get him out of the league in a few years, he needs to train to get into that PJ Tucker/Crowder niche
Knox plays like I do when I’m frustrated in 2k
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
The fortnite suit ruined him
Lol
What is this joke about sorry I don’t get it?
@@MaxAndersonn He wore a fortnite suit on draft night.
@@aynt_2065 I completely forgot about that... Lmao.
@@MaxAndersonn same
Yo I beat him at the park in 2k maybe he should be practicing more lol
I do hope he gets better all jokes a side
LOL
That's the only place where he gets real practice.
Lmfak might as well be on there he get more shots on there than he does in real life
I thought it was funny how in 2K20 he was on the team picture but he wasn’t even in the starting lineup anymore
If Kevin ever learns to play harder on both ends of the court consistently, he is a difference maker. His offensive skills are strong for such a young player. He is the key to this team being able to compete with teams in the playoffs. This team will not be injury free and that's when Kevin must show out. Payton, RJ, Knox, Randle, Mitch lineup to me makes alot of sense if he just stepped up. Knox can space the floor and use his length defensively if he developed.
Tbh he was shooting really well from 3 this year but Thibs benched him so Burks could shoot 30%. I think this year actually isnt his fault. Just losing minutes like alot of the Knicks young guys due to Thibs system.
@@MrJman967 His time will come and he must play harder. At times his defensive effort is lacking and Thibs is not a fan of not playing hard on that end of the floor.
Put him on a team like the raptors n youll see how good he can be
@@lilxsoldier Who knows? We will see. Kevin is young and needs to mature. That takes time.
I believe this.
Every time I see the Knicks play I realize how low his bball IQ is..
He got shooked by Zion in that pre-season game...
Ain't a Knicks fan, but remember he blocked Zion I think, but was completely forgotten, none the less, crazy dunk by Zion
He snatched a piece of his soul away
summer league*
but Knox went crazy that game 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️ something u dumb fans don’t know
@@badasscaptown3851 i mean, where is knox now? it's the summer league, his opponents are probably eating cheetos while watching the lakers game rn
I remember zion man handled him in that pre season game
Lmao
Yet Knox played much better than Zion this game
@@greenshotty3364 you salty
@@greenshotty3364 yea and jesus came back to earth
@@devilishfrost4795 and pj tucker is the best center in the league
Props to him to respecting his coach and not whining for not getting big minutes but he should step up and make most of his plays even with limited minutes.
What prospects have the Knicks actually developed? a change of culture is what's really needed to stabilize his career. He'd do well on so many other teams just because the environment will lend itself to him improving.
Right
He looks like he's playing 2k myplayer on a bad team where no one will pass the ball so he tries to do everything to get his teammate grade up, but with low ball handling and shooting ratings
I wonder where did he spent his VCs tho
@@karltheintern6531 clothes and shoes
Man Knox really did look like he had a lot of potential for the Knicks , and most of his rookie year , but yeah he has really been disappointing for them, but yeah it's absolutely just sad for him, and it's really depressing to see , total knicks fans like myself , talk total shit on him because he's not even consistent anymore and it's also the lack of playing time
Hey at least your new draft pick looks nice hopefully the knicks can keep building and go from there
@@denzelkoe yeah that’s true and i do love Immanuel Quickley tho
Why do you think Porzinky wanted to leave ?
@@TeRraAwTisM The Knicks knew he was made of glass, both physically and mentally. They wouldn’t have given up on him so quick if that wasn’t the case.
@@sega32xxx14 so isn't KD don't make him not the Goat
It shows the importance of culture and structure when building an organization. A dysfunctional one will make it very difficult for young prospects to learn and develop. Fortunately they have thibs now so there are already some improvements in work-ethic and culture.
Exactly!
He’s definitely a much better coach than a lot of people have given him credit for over the past several years. But one of his defining traits seems to be a solidified opinion on a player during what would be on the early side of the judgement process of most coaches. This can definitely be bad for someone like Kevin Knox.
When the Knicks drafted Knox they were told that he would be a project. I feel because he was brought on by the old Phil Jackson regime he's being punished.
Kevin Knox: Future throw-in on any attempted Knicks trade.
I knew he was done when he said I don't need a shooting coach, mtmy dad is my shooting coach 👀🤭
He said that! When?
Who is the character from your profile pic?

However abyssmal he play, he always become an all star in nba 2k after 5-6 years into the league. I don't know why lol
They give everyone in 2k potential
Lmao yeah
because you need to edit him yourself because the developers are too busy sellt card packs to do that

Mitchell Robinson is shlumped at 3:20 lmaooooo
He’s was up all night running 2s with Julius all night on 2k
I feel like knox needs to go to the pistons.
They already got too many young wings that they don’t play. He needs minutes
Doumbouya already isn’t getting minutes
Trade him to the Cs. He'll prosper there
He needs to go to the gleague
@@jamesartemio1312so true
All the people in here commenting “lol Knicks” haven’t watched RJ take a step further , Mitch Rob become our defensive anchor , and Immanuel Quickley be a steal of a pick. The same jokes that have become played out over the last 20 years can’t be used anymore with this new regime
fax the knicks starting lineup would be a great bench for contending teams
Lol the knicks are depressing
@@TeamRocketWes lmfao are they? Have you watched basketball at this year ? Because it sounds like you haven’t lol
As a cavs I can relate. Knicks definitely on the right track going forward .
Being drafted by the Knicks sometimes an organization can ruin a kid career b4 it starts player development is very important to young players.
"Kevin Knox sucks" is a massive understatement
watch the video knox doing good this year
@@29vetopium21 Not now
If he was like on the Spurs, he’d be good where their young core looks promising
Coaching in San Antonio is different.. They can take a nobody and turn them into a dominant player..
Yeah, maybe they could turn Horton-Tucker to a Kawhi 2.0
Definitely..Some coach doesnt know how to use players sometimes.
Knoxx For Derozan
Bro we all know ON GAAAWD!!! if he was with the Spurs his skill would be great and shooting and defence
Dejounte Murray (2016 29th pick) , Derrick White (2017 29th pick), keldon johnson (2019 29th pick{pick from a kawhi/derozan trade}), lonnie walker (2018 18th pick), Devin Vassell(2020 11th pick).these are all spurs draft picks that are showing signs of having a great future...
This is why having vets are important for a young team.
A Vince Carter type would've been perfect for their development, but the knicks thought just overpaying guys for a season would do its job.
As long as he stays in the knicks, he won’t progress to his full potential. Too many young talents.
@@elpresadorjr.6620 wym stop blaming them? It’s the organizations job to develop him and they’ve failed like the knicks tend to do very often with gifted players.
@@gavinb2891 I hate this "organization's job to develop someone" bs. Good organizations are good at finding good character guys with a good work ethic; that's with it. You're only at the team practice facility for about 4 hours a day and what are you doing with the rest of your time? That's where the real development is...
@@gavinb2891 you cant teach effort
@@elpresadorjr.6620 he’s made it this far to a NBA court ,so he can’t be too bad bro. Just give him time.
@@elpresadorjr.6620 knicks suck also drafting busts. toppin,ntilikina,knox
I think he can be a solid role player, but not here. The biggest problem with him is that he like frank shouldn’t have been our picks. Mpj n Donavan should’ve .. imagine that team. KP is probably still here
Would've could've should've man james dolan fucked you guys from many great players
How are you guys saying great video when the video was literally posted a minute ago???
lmaooooo fr
@@goldlion9066 its a andy hoops he goated
I still have hope for Knox as a Knick fan, but like you have stated it’s more of a negative to have him on the court. Don’t think he will become a started but he works hard and hopefully one day it pays off on the Knicks or not.
Who is Kevin Knox?
💀
Don’t know, never heard of him before, must be a new guy
@@zzgaming29 I’m just not a Knicks fan lol
I guess the NBA version of NFLs Nathan Peterman
Ill do you one better. Why is kevin knox
He's such a nice guy. :( I am gonna root for him.
Zion snatched his career away in that preszn game
🤣🤣🤣
Shout out to you Andy Hoops! I am a Knicks fan too!
Here's hoping that RJ and Immanuel don't end up on the long list of prospects that have failed in NY
RJ has taken a huge jump this year
@@virtualanimegirl he took a huge jump from the beginning of the season lmao
His game is becoming a little bit of everything like a Jimmy Butler type of player
From what I've seen you won't have to worry about RJ.
Knicks have never been good at developing players since the Isiah years
I find it funny how mpj a player the knicks passed on is everything knox was supposed to be and then some while he’s not even a viable nba player anymore
That's what happens when you give guys time to develop. He was hurt but continued to work on his game...Knox was made to sink or swim
The Knicks aren't the only team passed on Porter, I would of took Knox as well Porter was damaged goods!
Porter wasn’t hurt he had back surgery a full season prior to the draft but the nuggets sat him for precautionary reasons not out of necessity I made the point because the knicks picked a guy who was exactly the same type of player (long lanky athletic with touch) when the clearly better prospect was on the board they aren’t the only ones to pass on him but if they’re staff was looking for a wing they picked the wrong one porter even with the injury risk is still a better player and most people could have told you that confidently on draft night
Porter goal is to get buckets shooting, cutting, and attack close out. He show some effort on defense in guarding his man on ISO. Jokic is the player main offense initiator and decision maker, and Murray is the secondary. Porter is just a piece to get buckets.
@@WorkBundle that’s the role he’s filling because there are so many other offensive options you can’t tell me he wouldn’t have a greater impact if he switched places with knox on the knicks that’s the exact kind of player the knicks are missing
I went to the 2018 draft i remember knowing the knicks were going to take one of the Kentucky players (knox or SGA) Im a huge Kentucky fan and knew SGA had a higher ceiling and they needed a pg drastically
I bet u weren't too happy with the pick especially being physically in the building when they announced the pick. Seems pretty cool to be able to go to a draft instead of watching it on tv.
He’s been fine as a role player he’s shooting 39% from 3 on 3 attempts
That glass breaking at 0:26 😂
As a Knicks Fan I Love Knox But He Will Never Grow Here I’m Just Ready to see him on another team
Yes me too.
He needs new team to be on like Dennis Smith Jr. He needs a chance in this league. He has all the tools to be something special, but he just has to prove it.
I agree.
Kevin Knox is still young, he can produce, he needs another chance, maybe in Detroit, but not in NY
Wtf detroit gonna do?
Detroit LOL
@@subzerofromny735 They are gonna give him minutes, and allow him to make mistakes, to improve his development. Just like Josh Jackson, they are cool with losing games, but they really care about the development of the young guys.
The fortnite suit doomed him
Spurs
Knox still has the tools to be somewhat successful but he needs a shooting coach, a new trainer and a strength and conditioning coach and any other type of coach
make more videos about NBA history
As a Kentucky fan I watched him play 37 games in college and he wasn’t ready for the nba. He was most definitely at least a 2 year college player. He averaged a good amount of points and rebounds but his shooting was inconsistent and his decision making was suspect. I think he’s the kind of kid that plays basketball because he’s 6’9” and pretty good at not. Not because he enjoys playing it
Damn that title is savage lmao
Love what you do Andy, but it would be nice to see another “how good was he actually” video/:
I hope Kevin Knox does what's best for him and his career if he's in New York, or not. BUt I do hope he'll find out what will help him keep on playing in the NBA.
Back in college man was a beast. If he can find what he did then and translate it over he could be a really solid player but it seems he’s lost himself
I was waiting for this one! Thanks for all the hard work into making this video!
Good Young man I disagree with the assumption that he’s lazy sometimes when you not sure what to do . But his attitude is wonderful and the fact he’s only 21 also Tobias Harris didn’t step on the court and was this version he put in the work Knox will still be younger then some of the guys that will be drafted i think he’s a keeper
If Knox was a lock down defender he'd definitely get some burn. He's definitely improved offensively...picking better spots, spacing the floor.
Side note: Mitch needs to develop an offensive game as well. His back to the rim, a hook shot with both hands, a 15 foot jumper...something!!!
All of the knicks young guys are BALLIN rn he’s a bench guy at best rn
The shade is just oozing more than normal lol
Kevin Knox will be out of the NBA in a few years if he doesn't turn things around. Mark my words.
As an NBA fan and a Bulls fan, I want you guys to come back up. NYC is the meccah of basketball, NYC is the only city where basketball is king and everything else is second. I grew up in the 90s and loved the fierce rivalries with my Bulls and you guys with the HEAT and Pacers. And who can ever forget that organ rip at the Garden! Good times!
People forget how young these dudes are. Before this past august Kev couldnt even drink alcohol, its silly for people to think a guy that could still be on his parents insurance plan should be putting up insane numbers
no one said that
""People forget how young these dudes are. Before this past august Kev couldnt even drink alcohol, its silly for people to think a guy that could still be on his parents insurance plan should be putting up insane numbers""
We dont expect him to put up insane number. however, We do expect him to keep improving while making a better effor on D.
Glad you are a fellow Knicks fan like myself. I have hope we can turn things around with Thibs and some.of the young guys we have and the picks... Unfortunately I don't have hope in Kevin Knox... Hopefully I'm wrong on that tho.
I find this video hilarious because I know someone who was messing around with Kevin Knox his sophomore year in the NBA for a while. Dont know if she is still messing around with him or not but remember her telling me that he will become an all star within the next 2-3 years and looking at it now its never going to happen.
For me I can laugh my ass off making fun of Knicks fans
While as a kings fan we draft Sam Bowie 2 instead of Luka
Mavs fan here, Bagely is not nearly as bad as Bowie was. Plus the kings have some interesting pieces. Y'all either need to trade Hield or preferably fire Walton's ass and get a coach that is willing to utilize the team to the fullest possible potential. Also good luck with Ranadive as the controlling owner. Some of his choices esp hiring front office personnel is the work of a cocaine fever induced racoon.
6 points on 34% is awful
Enough is enough, if a young player can't even put effort send em packing out of the league, give other guys chance to play n improve, it's sickening seeing guys like knox, lonzo among others wasting roster spot just because of hype
Bro LONZO balling you don’t watch the games 😂😂
Knox never had hype
@@jordanjohnson1019 how is he by any definition balling?? His production is nothing special for all the hype smoke, i guarantee you u give any avg guard the same touches and they'll match his output if not outright surpassed it
@@GuRReN1495 he may be the best defensive guard in the nba rn
Point guard*
He’s only been here two years
Great video as always, Andy! Love your content.
This was a great report
The city of memes is good lol
He needs a team with veterans that can help him learn and pick and choose his spots
It’s good he’s with Detroit after getting the green light in New York to then be drafted to hawks and get humbled being a free agent to then be only 22 years old after leading Kentucky in scoring he gotta be hungry and ready to learn the right way
Hey Andy
Would you consider making a video on how RJ is doing? You may have touched on his game recently (I can't remember) but I'd like to see what you think in more depth. As a Knicks fan I'd figure that you'd know more than well ... most NBA fans since the Knicks haven't been too watchable these past few years (to put it nicely)
Knox is miss used. Slow down game is not his style. Knox went backwards because of playing time. 3 minutes at a time is bad For development.
He’s a professional and young he’ll get it together in Detroit
Knox is definitely a good young piece and the stats don’t gauge full potential accurately. Knox did well in his first season because he got the free reign to develop, year two was more crucial because Coach Fiz was in the hot seat, so his freedom diminished. Thibs doesn’t have time for developing players, because he’s experienced high success in his Boston and Chicago days, so again Knox finds himself in a predicament where he doesn’t have much room for error. Frank Ntilikina also finds himself in a similar boat with Thibs. The only weakness Knox shows in his game is keeping his man in front of him and that’s because he seems to have issues with lateral movement. A lot of times on drives Knoxs legs seem to just give out on him, so that’s why his on the ball defense always looks suspect. I think he just needs more devolpment and he will be just find. He has a lot of the offensive tools Quickley has but he’s a hell of a lot taller. The Knicks would be stupid to give up on him so fast.
At least he’s showing SOMETHING. The fact that his 3pt shooting has been good is a good thing. He just needs more minutes. I trust Thibs’s judgement.
he should added to the derrick rose trade
I haven’t seen him since 2k19
knicks,bulls and some laker fans make THE best nba videos
His ceiling is honestly donovan Mitchell's rookie year
That’s really good but he won’t get there
Great vid!
Uploaded 7 mins ago . You commented 5 mins ago , 11 min video .. your ass didn’t even watch it
@@lile4life713 he wanting those useless internet points lmao. Barely got through the intro
There was one stretch that he was playing better but now he is irrelevant.
They could have drafted mpj or sga instead lmao
Anyone could've drafted MPJ, they were just scared
@@ashtonphoenix3894 cool story
Knicks would have broken mpj, thank god they didn’t draft him
He's still only 21 so there is plenty of time for him to improve. He's shown some slight progress with his shot this year too. He still has much to improve. Needs to get stronger, improve defensively. I think cleaning up his shot profile would help him too. He shoots the corner three fairly well but takes too many above the break threes and long midrange shots.
The problem starts with college hoops. You get all these tall long athletes that can jump out of the gym and they get national media attention and so they think they can just live off their athleticism like they have previously, and then when they get to the nba they don’t have skills like shooting or handles or even a basketball IQ because they never bothered to develop one. That’s the difference between scrubs in the nba and good players is the skills they developed instead of living off their height and athleticism
even bums like sabonis eventually put the work in to become better thats what makes nba players. When you don't change your skill set or improve the little things such as knowing how to catch and shoot under the rim for an inbounds play you won't be in the nba for long bud.
I think he'll be playing in Europe soon...
Get this man in a thunder uniform. it's his best chance at a prolonged nba career right now. if he can change his mindset (which is extremely difficult to do) and expectations are sufficiently lowered, he could still be a usable rotation guy. but time is ticking.
In my opinion he will develop into decent rolle player of the bench, but you never know maybe he will be a starter after all, there is talent in him...
The sign julius randle that's why his role as a player decrease.
The way I see it he should be a stretch 4 not a 3, if he can space the floor at the 4 and develop his post scoring and defense he should stay in the league for a while
With the mistakes and shots he takes, he looks like a player who was just bigger than people when he was younger so didn't need to try to look good.
I think a change in scenery can revive his career, Houston might be a good spot for him. Coach Silas could help on his development alongside KPJ.
Yeah maybe he could do what Ben Macklemore did
Unless they can find another use for him, they either can sign him for a bare minimum deal or not sign him back. My guess is, they'll just not sign him. Some players that looked promising in college just are cut out for the pros, and there's no shame in that. He can still work in the basketball world as a coach or an executive.
yeah that iconic knicks kid still hate on Knox on draft night , not surprised
2:14😯 wow . Poor guy. All I know that the NBA would be such a better brand if the Knicks were in it. It would be awesome.
Maybe he just don’t have it everybody puts these expectations on these players and nobody say maybe he was never that good don’t say he’s not trying out anything he’s just not good
Why I found different RPM than you did ? I got Kevin Knox ranks 54 out of 88 players in SF. I guess this ranking would change daily basis and it does change a lot base on your recent performance?
www.espn.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/page/3/position/5
This is the link
Ah nvm it’s 19-20 season that you showed
He’s not been horrendous this season. He’s realised his role I think. Shooting 39% from 3 off the bench with an effective FG% of 51.2%. Barring an explosion I think his role will be an off the bench wing player who will hopefully be a reliable 3pt option.
You need to do a video on John Starks! He had so much potential and a hard upbringing only to retire relatively early!
2:14 haha this kid knew what was coming..
I still hold tiny bit of hope he can be the 20ppg scorer I hoped he could become. I have his jersey as an okc fan. I loved his game but like now it’s uncertain for him in general sad to see
huge fan of Knicks so im a big fan of Frank and Kev, huge fan of the Kev pick and liked the Frank pick. unfortunately both need to develop. I hope Knox and Frank can have a good career. Knox needs to work harder on defense and stay aggressive. If Frank can develop a offensive game it would be great
Good vids bro 🔥🔥🔥
Payton is one of the best defenders on the NBA. Bad comparison.
