On the court, Mitch gets you offensive rebounds and rim protection. What is often under appreciated is that among bigs, he is also one of the leaders in steals and box outs.
Mitchy better be in that film room everyday and 50 made FT a day. Thats all we need is a defensive center that can knock down a FT and able to get 10pts a game. He is a willing passer and moves better without the ball than Rudy. We gotta see how he plays with the first unit. Im a betting man and its safe to say Mitch is hungry, looking at this roster you have to taste a ring.
@@seds94 nobody wants Sims, man. And we can't trade Mitch to get a SF. If Leon trades Mitch, it should be to get a healthy center. Like Valanciunas or Walker Kessler.
If the Knicks were to trade basically their entire defensive front court for another Wing player, I would classify that as gross negligence. KAT is gonna get COOKED on the inside every game. Ride with Mitch, we got him for two years and there is no real reason to trade him now.
I think you should trade sims and Precious for a wing. Keep Mitch and Hukporti and roll with the veteran wing you trade for. That bench and starting unit should get enough rest going
Marshall you used to be a trusted platform for me to listen to - hint used to. Have you been watching the games? Sims is not the answer and holds no trade bale what do ever. Mitch is a Thibs guy all the way. Yes he's injury prone but as a backup he's awesome and a keeper
Pacome DADIET could be our other wing and if we don’t get Tyler Kessler Hukaporti is Fine at Center. In order to win Tom Thibodeau needs to play our very talented rookies.
The great twin towers of Kat & Mitch will help our star point guard Jalen Brunson and the team to eye them for more scoring & assist I'm not a coach but this will definitely work and you don't have to get rid of no one you have the backups on the bench, put the news out there.
Towns at Center unlocks not just his but the teams offensive potential, the problem is that he is not a rim protector. Mitch at the C works but it's not what Thibs or the FO wants, what needs to happen is that Precious needs to start at PF for his defense and rebounding. The shooting will take a hit, but defensively it will be better because Precious will make up for Kats shortcomings. It also allows OG to move back to his natural position of SF and it will help the perimeter defense, where we have been getting killed all season. The sacrifice here would be Josh moving back to the bench, he's been terrific but it needs to happen for the sake of the interior and perimeter defense. He'd lead the bench unit with Miles, Mitch, Cam, Tyler, and Pacome. In the long run it strengthens our bench and fixes our defense.
@Rafael081296 Too much moving around Kat would do good at power forward for defense, scoring and rebounding and Mitch Robinson our rim protector for rebounding, blocking, and defense it would work and they have the players on the bench to rest them.
Not saying these are the exact players we should get, but a trade like Mitch Robinson for Nick Richard’s and Cody Martin would be ideal. Get a solid (not great) big who can start alongside KAT and play ~20 min a game. Then an another wing to come off the bench who defends and hits open 3s. The only reason I say this trade isn’t perfect is because Martin isn’t the ideal size. A 6’8 maybe Jeff Green build would be best.
We need a wing only because of injury. Payne and Shamet are good off the bench with deuce, Precious, Robinson. For this season I’m not sure any trade helps us. Did anyone see Sims rubbing his right leg all night on the bench?
We lost to DET because Kat was out and Brunson wasn’t 100% . They have about some player’s that were high draft picks from recent years that are panning out . They beat us flat out .
Preferably a player that can do the following 1) Plays multiple positions(5 and 4) 2) Plays great defense 3) can hit free tgrows! 4) could get 15 points per game 5) can grab 10 boards
@ why not? I think it was reported two weeks ago that Minnesota was looking to trade him. He wasn’t happy coming off the bench although that was the same bullshit. They said about the Knicks and he said it wasn’t true.
Blowing out who you're supposed to and looking horrible (overall and defense) against teams that matter is not a recipe to beat Boston in playoffs! Starting to lean on Thibs being the problem. Why wait until 2:00 minutes left in a game to start removing starters up 20!! Don't risk starters. See what Detroit did without KAT.
They blew out Orlando stopping their 7 game win streak though😂 That was only a couple of games ago. Look I do need Thibs to lower Mikal & OG's minutes, but let's stop with the hyperbole tho. This team has won 11 of 14. We're not in dire straits 😂
They need a big long rim defender and rebounder. Kessler or someone like that. I would trade Mitchell out and precious if we can get a good player Simms and other new center is good. We just need more defence up front
Idk Mitchell Robinson is better than all of them not to mention give ashuoa too it's really complicated though becauses I really believe Mitchell will get traded anyway because we can count on kat hakporty sims and ashoua in that 5 spot
Idk why we need another Wing defender. Dadiet is a fine player and if we’re worrying about Bridges playing 40+ minutes give the young guy 10 min a game. Thibs is just super stubborn while throughout the league so many rookies are playing really well. Mitch is never gonna be 100% and that sucks but none of the players named are worth the trade imo. Keep this team and let’s see how far it goes this year, and trade everything for the last all-in move in the offseason
No trade i think they doing it right with Mitch letting him fully heal then come back off the bench playing 15-20 per game and build the minutes up slowly and Mitch will stay healthy
They offered him in a trade for star players if it’s not for someone significant the trade dose t make sense. You keep Mitch and leave him alone for the rest of the season. He’s will fits his role.
Sims needs to go. Not sure why he is ever put on the floor. Knicks have extremely poor defense and inconsistent offense with the exception of Brunson and Hart. They are center poor. They need someone the likes of Wilt, Patrick or Kareem for a center as well. I had high hopes for the Knicks before the season started but now totally disappointed. Things might change, I hope they do. But if this inconsistency continues forget them getting very far in the playoffs if they make that far.
Hmmm...I didn't know that DeAndre Hunter was that good. I think going for him would be a good choice. Not only that, Clint Capela is a good option as well. The Knicks could also try to go for these guys: Jalen Duren, Wendell Carter and Nic Claxton. Personally, I think the Knicks could improve the team by moving KAT to power forward and starting Ariel Hukporti. Thibs is stubbornly refusing to play him consistently despite the fact that the Knicks is struggling against teams like Utah, Detroit and Toronto. If Ariel Hukporti starts, that would give the Knicks an advantage. They would have 2 seven footers in the starting lineup. Most other teams have one good 7 footer that is slow & is reluctant to go to the perimeter. This would allow KAT to shoot more uncontested 3s or shoot over shorter defenders. As for Ariel Hukporti? He can rebound, block shots, defend, drive to the rim, finish on pick n' rolls, finish on ally oops and give assists. The bench would also be stronger with Josh Hart. He can get out in transition, run a one man fast break, speed up the pace, shoot 3s, give assists, rebound and drive to the rim. It's a win-win.
Combining Mitch and Achuiwa in a trade… Is fine.. but this won’t play huckporti(way better than sims), and sims isn’t the answer.. They would need a C presence there between Kat and Sims
(2/2) Hawks) Can get off of Hunters Contract , they can cut or Keep Precious next year , they have a very Valuable piece in McBride they can pair Daniels in defensive rotations . Then Trae and Clarkson could be a great scoring backcourt as well . Clarkson can always be moved next year if necessary. Jazz) Get off of Having to Pay Clarkson anymore , Mitch’s Contract is a reverse deal so it will go from 14mill to 12 mill next year . Zeller can be cut depending on need and The Jazz not only land Picks but go into full tank mode . More minutes for rooks the don’t have to reup Kesslers Contract in 2 years which the don’t want to do and they can Revive Mitch’s Value to trade him later . Knicks) They mortgage their Future for 2 quality Starters that can fill in for any injuries in the starting lineup . We will have the best 7-8 man rotation in the league . They are all young so this gives them real 6 year championship window. The rooks get more time to develop with more open spots then they will be ready by year 2-3 . Maximizing our chances and development .
Do the Knicks need to make a trade? Y | N

Cade Cunningham decided to play yesterday and Malik Beasley had the game of his life
They were on fire and we couldn't buy a bucket
Defensive Big that came protect the Rim💯 … Play Kat at 4 and Hukaporte at 5 and keep Robinson and play part time till he’s ready 💯
I think Herb Jones would be the perfect wing for the Knicks.. he’s an elite defender, can shoot the 3 and has a team friendly contract.
We have soo much wing players we need a solid big man C
That would cost Mitch, sims and picks
Do it
@@seds94Fine
@@seds94 nobody wants Sims, man. And we can't trade Mitch to get a SF. If Leon trades Mitch, it should be to get a healthy center. Like Valanciunas or Walker Kessler.
The Knicks they are not ready
They need a true power forward which they really needed after losing Julius Randle a power forward a scorer and a rebounder.
If the Knicks were to trade basically their entire defensive front court for another Wing player, I would classify that as gross negligence. KAT is gonna get COOKED on the inside every game. Ride with Mitch, we got him for two years and there is no real reason to trade him now.

Put Precious in the starting lineup and you will have a backup for bridges in Josh Hart
Hart should start

Wing is the biggest need because Bridges is playing too many minutes and it's affecting his defense.
We cannot be fully pleased with our Roster. There are holes to be filled.
I’ve wanted Kessler, still do.
But I just dont see how that match comes together right now…
Danny Ainge gonna want a haul. Not even worth it
Pacome DADIET could be our other wing and if we don’t get Tyler Kessler Hukaporti is Fine at Center. In order to win Tom Thibodeau needs to play our very talented rookies.
Stop putting mitch in trade scenarios. We need what he brings
True, we need a rim protector badly
Toumani Camara. Can Trade sims straight up nd picks for him idk if Portland would tho.
Factsss haven't heard any Knicks channel speak on him they sleep
Portland is doing that tf 💀? Sims cannot hoop to save his life
@@cleanfresh6718 lol they'll want Duece or dadiet stead of bumass sims
Simms and Robinson for another 5 thats a defensive beast? Is that possible
They definitely need a Power Forward or switch karl Anthony back to power forward and Mitch Robinson at center.

Sims got pulled after 6 minutes against DETROIT

We need a big asap
N......No if mitch can stay healthy hes an excellent asset and he plays well with brunson

Nikola vucevic
Mr. has been great when able to play. He has been the longest-tenured knick.
Sims most be kissing thib ass to get some minutes cause he sucks. 😅
I think we need a stronger defensive presence and more rebounds
Let’s trade to get Dante the Big Ragu back
We can’t
@ why not? I think it was reported two weeks ago that Minnesota was looking to trade him. He wasn’t happy coming off the bench although that was the same bullshit. They said about the Knicks and he said it wasn’t true.
@@Jonnyrammsin a three team trade we can but the odds are low plus we need a big
I don’t think we can afford him back rn
@@redbankross can’t trade a player you traded in same season
Yes definetly
We are inconsistent at this point.
Knicks need a BIG!!
Hottest team? We lost to Bulls, Jazz, Pistons and struggled against Hornets 2 weeks ago.
Jalen Duren on the pistons has the best upside out of big men & only 23 or walker kessler
(1/2) My trade idea is
Knicks) Get: D.Hunter , W.Kessler
Jazz) Get: M.Robinson , C.Zeller (Was )1st round pick protected, (2-3) 2nd round picks
Hawks) Get: D.McBride , J.Clarkson , P.Achiwa . Possibly (1-2) 2nd round picks
The knicks Just lost to the Piston 😢we aren't that good 😅
He knows nothing
Pistonsnare 10/15 they aren't that bad and were still 14-9
Just pick your on team you bugging
@@Football-gd7mi4Delusional man
I hope the Knicks get a good backup Centers by trading Robinson and Simms.
It's "NOT" working!
All they need is a big center and the knicks would be stacked.
Give Mitch a shot in the rotation.
No you want to KEEP Achiuwa. You want to get rid of Mitch and Jericho
Robinson’s not going anywhere. He will be apart of this championship run this years!! He’s the final piece
Mitch - walker kessler
J. Sims - Zion W.
Mcbride
The biggest need we have is Thibs needs to play the bench more and not play Brunson for 44 minutes
Fr but yk he ain’t gonna do that tj Warren would of been nice rn for the moment
A big and defense

Defense is a issue
They need to take playing defense serious.
Steve adams,Robert Williams, marcus smart, Chris paul, pj tucker
Chris Paul is done.
Didn't PJ Tucker retire? 🤔
The wings are still small no one is over 6 10 or big enough. They need better defence
W 6’9”
Walker Kessler would be the missing piece for me.
As long as we’re dreaming…. Gimme Brandon Miller ! 🤩
They are not the hottest teams you is a liar
Lost to the pistons talking about hottest team😂😂😂😂
They need a big long rim defender and rebounder. Kessler or someone like that. I would trade Mitchell out and precious if we can get a good player Simms and other new center is good. We just need more defence up front

Bring mitch in play him at the 5 put towns at the 4 and OG at the 3 heart and brunson fulling out the line up.
Just cuz we don't need Mitchy against the Celtics doesn't mean we won't against the Miamis, Phillies or Orlandos

JB played 44 mins to lose to Detroit…. This can’t be it
No mitch can rebound for the second unit, that haves shooters
Valancius can score but his " D " is poor.
