You gotta love this guy. He truly doesn’t have ill will towards the Knicks organization, so much so he didn’t want to give exact details to slander them, when he could have easily done that. As a Knick fan I’ll always have an appreciation for Porzingis and I wish him well. I even rooted for him on draft night simply because of the toxic Knick fans booing him. We are not all bad, and we are not all delusional. One day the Knicks will taste victory and it will be one of THE most glorious championships in all of sports, honestly the only championship that will compare is (Cowboys 6th, Mets 3rd, Bulls 7th (first Chip post Jordan) , Jets 2nd, NY Giants 5th, Lions 1st, Yankees 28th, Nets 1st , and Magic 1st)

Diehard Knick Fan, I will always root for KP. Was hoping we would land him this past offseason, he is a generational talent. Hope he stays healthy & one day, you never know..

As for Rich Kleiman, I remember when Durant was at his Hamptons home listening to offers for his talents. He didn’t even take a phone call from the Knicks before signing with the Warriors. Yet Mills chased after him again like a clown. Just cause Mills had no shot (as we all know) doesn’t mean he didn’t try because that WAS his 1 and 1A plan. When he failed, that’s when Perry panicked, loaded up the Knicks with short-term contracts called “assets.’ One of which Julius Randle. End of story.
Here is a fun fact about where Kristaps Porzingis grew up : Latvia has a population of approx 1.8 million people, or about *500 000 more* people than the Memphis and New Orleans metro areas, and about *500 000 less than the entire Orlando metro area* (three of the "small market" NBA cities).
They already have - Porzingis is who came in and asked for a trade - they had already made an extension offer to him - Porzingis is the one who doesn't have an answer as to why he did what he did
Right now I think he’s exactly where he needs to be…a 3rd or 4th option on a premier team. You gotta go through some stuff before you find your stride.
@@Krezo200Kristaps should be the Celtics *3rd option* . No slight to Jrue Holiday, but Porzingis puts a different kind of pressure on the opposing teams' defense.
Watching the celtics this year, he is the first or second option. Not the 3rd or 4th and the celtics have a chance to win if he stays healthy. Without him they are not a contender.
How does that stunt growth? It teaches you a lot about basketball. Its not smart to run in the modern NBA but theres a lot of skills & fundamentals that can help players grow
Whats the offense now that he HAD to learn as a rookie?🤣 Its just pick & rolls and jacking up 3’s. Takes 10 minutes to learn that. Porzingis had no problem doing that
Wow I thought i was subbed already! I swear last time i checked, about a year ago, yall were at 340,000 or something. Insane growth. Well deserved. Great content. Finally media personnel with exceptional basketball knowledge.
I had the highest hopes for KP to become a superstar in NY. I know he's a great player inside and it sucks to see him not be a 1 or 2 player on his team now.
I love how he answered the questions about his time in NYC. He could of easily bashed the Knicks but he didn’t. As an active player on an NBA roster you have to be very careful about what you say because you never know when you’ll find yourself in the free agent market or being on the trade block. People see and hear everything these days
met him shortly after he was drafted by the knicks as one of the many fans who didn't like the pick. he instantly swayed my opinion of him, just a cool down to earth stand up guy, having a normal conversation with a fan. went onto become a fan favorite then was pushed away by a dysfunctional front office. every knicks fan booing this guy is not a true fan. he deserved better than the situation the knicks put him in
KP left his heart in NYC because of his love for fans. He clearly points out to bad communication with FO at that time leading to bad blood . FO made quick decision for a trade not giving themselves and KP enough time to make things work
I was mad when they traded him but sadder still to think how incompetent the front office was at that time for having a guy who was a young budding star before the knee injury….
Figures always 1 !!!!! Randle is a BEAST. FACTS. This Guy Stays HURT. !!!! Knicks fan all my life !!!! DONT DISRESPECT MR RANDLE EVER AGAIN OKKKKKK PEACE
I was never a fan of this guy however I admire how he handled not throwing shade at his brother’s advice and Knicks brass. My only gripe with KP as a long time Knicks fan was that he was never clutch in crunch time and the timing of his injury. The Knicks were horrible as well but that’s how I saw it.
I was sad as a Knicks fan, once traded Knicks became irrelevant and betted everything on free agency (Kd & kyrie), lottery for Zion or Ja. We back to being competitive but i wish we don’t end up always trading ppl we draft. Got nothing
The trade had to be done. He wanted to play when they were essentially out of playoff contention. They didn't want to risk reinjuring his knee. Also, this was the season were KD and Kyrie became free agents and their was a chance that the knicks can land them. The needed to clear the cap space which is why he was traded to get rid of Tim Hardaway and Courtney Lee's contract.
This guy feels like a better version of Robert Parish for the Celtics, and how he fits in to the team. Big difference is he has the long range shot. But the skinny, good defense/rim protection, ability to score in the post, and not needing to dominate the shots all game really harkens back to the way Parish fit with the Celtics in the 80s.
Reading between the lines, it sounds like he's trying his best to not come out and say directly that his representation at time of the injury/trade request was not the best, or maybe didn't have his best interests at heart.
your cheap shotters already tried when he was overseas, knicks fans are a different breed go for the pistons and ull be real. spike lee is anti karma + stephen a
What Zinger tried to say .. they messed up .. plain and simple I mean him and his team .. they played hard ball and learned it the hard way .. once you’re out of NY you start to appreciate your city that you lost much more .. it’s one of the best places to be .. I don’t mind his return as a Knick fan
He’s still playing it close to the vest and not revealing what actually happened. I think he was just arrogant and his people messed up the situation in NY and it backfired on him.
He's always been a good guy. Worst day of my life as a fan when the idiot Knick management traded him for nothing. The second day was when the idiot Knick management passed on him and let him go to the Celtics.
Yeah, you guys received dennis smith jr., which your management thought he was going to be a future allstar lol, and two throwaway players in We Matthews and DeAndre Jordan, as well as 2 picks, which the 1st one was Quentin Grimes, who's not bad and possibly our 2024 1st round pick assuming we don't get a pick lower than 11, so you guys still have a chance to win that trade bc we turned Dennis Smith Jr. into Kyrie Irving
Kris wanted a trade because we was going in the wrong direction the Knicks was lost it’s a lil better now but we are still not there yet I just hope we will continue to build
Some people not built for NY 🤷🏽. More respect to those that took the criticisms and bullshit and still thrived like Melo and Randle right now. Instead of someone who ran when it got tough.
They already had a trade in place because the front offce found out before he asked to be traded do the research that's why they traded him along with the of the court things that where going in in his life it was the best for both parties to part ways.
Y'all trippin with the "i'm a Knicks fan and i root for KP.". Dude requested a trade while he was hurt and missing an entire season. AND was still on his rookie deal. AND hadn't really done ish in the league yet. The balls on him. Efff this dude foreverrrrrrrr. P.S. LETS GO KNICKS!!!
You can blame the NY front office like many Knicks fans are in the comments. And you know I’d be almost willing to accept that but bruh they gave KP away in Dallas. Didn’t even try to boost the value or demand equal value. Two teams sent him packing early on in the process. Knicks offered him an extension and I’m assuming his camp said no so why wouldn’t the front office have a trade package on standby. They’d be dumb if they didn’t.
Kp: said were going to request a trade Knicks management :your already in the trading block 2mins after that he already traded hahahahahah knicks is a comedy show
On draft night Porzingis was all about how he wanted to play for the Knicks, that it was his dream, that he wanted to be in New York specifically and now we know, years later, that it was all a smokescreen, that he really could've cared less. Kind of eye opening when you think about how it all turned out. It also is a good window into why it's so hard drafting the right players for a franchise when these players have been prepped and rehearsed by their agents/teams what to say to NBA front office personnel. It's never just about talent -- KP clearly had some character issues coming in and those are really hard to suss out and maybe now, after several injuries and trades, he is much more his authentic self and comfortable -- however it doesn't do the Knicks any good. I'm thoroughly convinced now even if Phil Jackson wasn't train wrecking the Knicks FO, KP would've ended up asking his way out eventually since his ego was in the pilot's seat back then.
Can't believe Tommy took the 100K subscriber plaque lol. Here is the full KP interview. Thanks for watching: th-cam.com/video/zq9PXclzFjc/w-d-xo.html

It’s really funny how people criticized him for focusing a perimeter oriented game but now every team wants a stretch 5!
As a Knicks fan I opened the video looking to bash KP. But, gotta respect his humility! Wish it worked out, glad he’s thriving!
your cheap shotters already tried when he was overseas, knicks fans are a different breed go for the pistons and ull be real. spike lee is anti karma + stephen a
Did my part, I subscribed.
respect to KP foreva a legend in my book
What Zinger tried to say .. they messed up .. plain and simple I mean him and his team .. they played hard ball and learned it the hard way .. once you’re out of NY you start to appreciate your city that you lost much more .. it’s one of the best places to be .. I don’t mind his return as a Knick fan
Seemed like his brother had a lot of influence at the time as well but who knows
he was still a kid ofc his family was looking out 4 him, family support is what got him to nba after all.
@@moka5377Yeah but his brothers were unprofessional
u were there? none of us knows.@@clutch7548
@@moka5377 Who do you think is a better shooter Kristap or Nikola Jokic 🤔
Dude’s about to win a title for Boston ❤
Why should anyone have to answer endless questions about wanting to get away from the worst owner in sports? No justification needed.
He’s still playing it close to the vest and not revealing what actually happened. I think he was just arrogant and his people messed up the situation in NY and it backfired on him.
btw JJ you can order multiple TH-cam plaques for your team members on the awards site
He has a superpower in which he says a lot of words but he is not saying anything at the same time
Still welcome to NY let's go!
Wish the Wiz kept him. He really played well for us
Dudes a creep. If not for the fame and money he’d be in jail.
Congrats on the million JJ!
For the rainbow book spread. Did you draw the book image free hand or is it a stamp? I love it.
The Knicks f’d up imagine if they still had kristaps🤦🏾♂️
Had high hopes 4 KP ...
He's always been a good guy. Worst day of my life as a fan when the idiot Knick management traded him for nothing. The second day was when the idiot Knick management passed on him and let him go to the Celtics.
Yeah, you guys received dennis smith jr., which your management thought he was going to be a future allstar lol, and two throwaway players in We Matthews and DeAndre Jordan, as well as 2 picks, which the 1st one was Quentin Grimes, who's not bad and possibly our 2024 1st round pick assuming we don't get a pick lower than 11, so you guys still have a chance to win that trade bc we turned Dennis Smith Jr. into Kyrie Irving
@@godspeedgideon9178So Knicks get the Mavs 2024 pick? Guaranteed?
Kris wanted a trade because we was going in the wrong direction the Knicks was lost it’s a lil better now but we are still not there yet I just hope we will continue to build
Some people not built for NY 🤷🏽. More respect to those that took the criticisms and bullshit and still thrived like Melo and Randle right now. Instead of someone who ran when it got tough.
That was the “ahhh I’m not going to tell you the truth cause it will make my brother and I look bad so ahh yea that’s how my career went”
Magnitude? The Knickerbockers only won 2 chips in the 70s. That's only one more than my Trashblazers.
You sound stupid… Its still by far the biggest domestic market, and the lack of rings only adds MORE pressure & angst from the fans
My undying hatred for TingusPingus will forever be lifted. Thank you JJ
He wants to be back in New York in the worst way, you can just tell. Imagine
C Porzingis
PF Randle
SF OG Ananoby
SG Divincezo
PG Brunson
They already had a trade in place because the front offce found out before he asked to be traded do the research that's why they traded him along with the of the court things that where going in in his life it was the best for both parties to part ways.
Look at the coaches KP had while on the knicks. Can you really blame him for wanting out?
Last I checked he had 600k and I subscribed at like 50k
Oh wow, you should get a commemorative plaque.😂
KP Grin when JJ talks smack about the knicks lol
He did not answer this question at all
I'm grateful he's a Celtic
What about that girl that lived in his building who brought allegations to the knicks? Nobody speaks on that situation
Whats the point of hiding stories if it happen a while ago.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GOOD TINGUS PINGUS WAS
Should still be a Knick Dummy….your brothers f’ed that situation up! Bravo
Y'all trippin with the "i'm a Knicks fan and i root for KP.". Dude requested a trade while he was hurt and missing an entire season. AND was still on his rookie deal. AND hadn't really done ish in the league yet. The balls on him. Efff this dude foreverrrrrrrr.
P.S. LETS GO KNICKS!!!
he would look good in a Warriors uni
You can blame the NY front office like many Knicks fans are in the comments. And you know I’d be almost willing to accept that but bruh they gave KP away in Dallas. Didn’t even try to boost the value or demand equal value. Two teams sent him packing early on in the process. Knicks offered him an extension and I’m assuming his camp said no so why wouldn’t the front office have a trade package on standby. They’d be dumb if they didn’t.
Kristoff I like him we had a super star to play with Carmelo, heart broke to see him go I wish we bring him back to ny in 2 years
No, please, call him Tingus
Did I miss it, did he say exactly what happened exactly?
Kp: said were going to request a trade
Knicks management :your already in the trading block 2mins after that he already traded hahahahahah knicks is a comedy show
On draft night Porzingis was all about how he wanted to play for the Knicks, that it was his dream, that he wanted to be in New York specifically and now we know, years later, that it was all a smokescreen, that he really could've cared less. Kind of eye opening when you think about how it all turned out. It also is a good window into why it's so hard drafting the right players for a franchise when these players have been prepped and rehearsed by their agents/teams what to say to NBA front office personnel. It's never just about talent -- KP clearly had some character issues coming in and those are really hard to suss out and maybe now, after several injuries and trades, he is much more his authentic self and comfortable -- however it doesn't do the Knicks any good. I'm thoroughly convinced now even if Phil Jackson wasn't train wrecking the Knicks FO, KP would've ended up asking his way out eventually since his ego was in the pilot's seat back then.
How to avoid answering what went down without saying I don’t want to say
Porzingis was too cold in NY
