Without him they will only beat 76-ers and on a good day at home nets, Pelicans, lakers but with him playoff is realistic. Hope Rose starts playing so they can be top3 east
as a latvian i had to support him and im glad he has worked hard and is just a fantastic athlete, i never thought id enjoy watching sports untill he joined the nba
I thought that he was the best player in the draft, no joke. I even predicted he'd win ROTY - Towns took it, but I'm at peace with that. This season he's shown just how high his ceiling could be. If he can bring a title back to MSG, people would fall over themselves to start a church in his name.
Raptors fan, actually, but anyone who saw his tapes prior to him being part of the draft knew that in terms of pure ability, he was already ahead. Towns may have had the physicality and the talent, but go and watch a few of the scout videos on Porzingis and compare them - not to Dirk - but to Rodman's technique. I still think he was the best player in the 2015 NBA draft. You don't GET 7-footers with range and a penchant for ORs. Even Nowitzki wasn't this good in the early decade, nor was Pau. Still, it's early days, so maybe you'll still have the last laugh.
1WayBraso to bad he's leaving and most likely he be a Celtics 🍀 with the way they're building the future. Kristap sees how fact NYC fan base is. What y'all did to melo you'll do to him.
Its votes and Basketball is more popular in Europe now. He is allstar lvl and all fans love tall players. Not only chinese fans voted for Yao(he got more votes than Shaq as a Rookie). He is a popular player young and future mvp. Unless he plays shit he will be allstar he dont need 30ppg. Just a couple more like this and 22ppg
I felt so bad for this kid on draft day when all the Knicks fans were booing him. Nobody deserves that, on what should be one of the greatest days of their life. Glad to see him being successful and putting all those fans in their place.
Felipe A. You don't need to say literally.. You would only say literally if there could be some misunderstanding about whether you meant it *literally* or in some other kind of way. Like if you said you were thrown out of a bar. If you said you were *literally* thrown out of a bar then that would mean you were actually physically picked up and thrown out as opposed to just being asked to leave.
^ GTFOH It wasn't just about the people who booed him that night. There were a lot of tweets from Knicks fans about how it was a bad pick, and Stephen A bitching about it non stop as well as reports that Melo wasn't on board with it either. The general consensus among Knicks fans was that it was a bad pick quit lying.
Well we all know that Stephen.A doesnt have any basketball IQ, but still why did Knicks fans even boo him in the first place, because his white and european, yeah gtfo. They shouldnt judge by looks but actions.
Years from now after kp retires a knick and left a footprint of multiple chips ppl who comment on youtube will have the 'last laugh'..."they still booed him tho"
Then I don't think you really understand Triangle because Triangle is all about pick and roll... literally in three ways.. Just ask Steve Kerr and the GSW
we're witnessing history.A 7'3 20-21 yr old who even with his game last year he's took it up to a whole nother level.He can dribble like a gaurd and shoot the midrange jumper with ease .he can finish around the rim like a gaurd and with his length can finish like a beast .yeah he looks skinny but doesn't play like it. but Kevin Garnett didn't need to be jacked up to play like he was . he'll get stronger because he's still basically a kid .The potential is higher than anyone possibly ever .but is the human body made to play like he does and stay healthy .that's why I wouldn't want him to gain much more weight to keep stress off his knees and feet. that's the million dollar question I sure hope he has a long career he can't play like this but for maybe 5 to 6 years or he may not last long adjust like Dirk has to conserve his body .New York deserves a healthy Kristaps Porzingas .Hell if your a basketball fan how can u not be rooting for the man ..
^ And Stephen A threw a bitch fit about it, and Melo reportedly didn't like the move either. The general consensus was that he was a bad pick for the Knicks don't try to rewrite the past. Also all you Knicks fans who are sick of hearing about how shitty you are as fans well TOO BAD. If he leaves and signs a max contract somewhere else it would be exactly what the Knicks franchise deserves.
it's impossible, he can score from ANYWHERE on the court. What l love is that dagger look after every made shot. You can see that look of satisfaction, like every one of them is for the doubters who used to make fun of him. ln a few years, he will be stronger and wiser, he will own NY, and this league.
Cavaliers Owned Larriors 3-1 true, when I was watching the game today.. I was like pass it to Kp.. but Melo isn't doing that much ball hogging as he used to
What's wrong with D. Rose seems like he don't like to pass the ball to KP at PnR look at 2:51. Same thing happens most of the time they do PnR. He must be salty because he ain't the 1st or 2nd option. LOL
bangbang shashimi I think your thinking wrongly, he is clearly setting up KP. They also focus on drose too much when he drives than when he passes it out to Noah or mostly Jennings they have the easy job of just passing it to KP. btw idk if you saw but most of the times he would have a mismatch
Heard it here first because nobody else is stupid enough to think he'll make the All Star team because he's on the Knicks.. He clearly is doing enough to make it on his own merits.
Its funny, because right before watching the interview at the end, it made me think of Dirk and how good his english was and kind of made me wonder how good KP's would be. I just didn't expect it to be that good that quickly.
Michael Simmons well after all he is the PG and can playmake.....and after all they did set KP up majority of the game....but a few points was on his own
Culley DaGawd I'm talking about scoring and taking more shots not facilitating 😒 in the beginning it was forced triangle with Melo and Rose taking more shots than KP. When it should be KP taking more or as many shots, he should at the very least be the second go to guy behind only Melo.
People Gotta understand Knicks fans booed the fact the Knicks didn't pick the obvious available drafts.....we didn't exactt hate KP specially when real Knicks fans pulled up his highlights right away.....we booed our luck and curse of not picking the obvious available players in the draft.....Knicks fans knows that always happens to Us
Who was the obvious pick for the #4 spot? The draft was pretty top heavy at the time. The "obvious" picks were Okafor and Towns, and anything after that was kind of a crapshoot.
I think Porzingod is a shitty nickname too. There's something wrong with NBA fans where they absolutely HAVE to force a nickname on any good player even if that nickname is garbage. Blake Griffin for example.
Am I the only one that thinks Jeremy Lin and him sounds alike? lolol. The league is tough but give him a few year or two, he definitely be in the top votes for MVP. Right now, it's like Harden, Westbrook, Lillard are pretty much people's top choices.
When they first started calling him Porzingod they were being sarcastic but now, they mean it.
Krismelo Porthony true, I been meant it and always had faith in him since he played his first game in the NBA
Kristaps is the main if not the only reason i watch the Knicks play
Without him they will only beat 76-ers and on a good day at home nets, Pelicans, lakers but with him playoff is realistic. Hope Rose starts playing so they can be top3 east
as a latvian i had to support him and im glad he has worked hard and is just a fantastic athlete, i never thought id enjoy watching sports untill he joined the nba
Porzingis came a long way from people calling him a bust, the development is crazy🔥💰✊
I thought that he was the best player in the draft, no joke. I even predicted he'd win ROTY - Towns took it, but I'm at peace with that. This season he's shown just how high his ceiling could be. If he can bring a title back to MSG, people would fall over themselves to start a church in his name.
Adrian Arshad Delusional knicks fan at its finest
Raptors fan, actually, but anyone who saw his tapes prior to him being part of the draft knew that in terms of pure ability, he was already ahead.

faedf
1WayBraso to bad he's leaving and most likely he be a Celtics 🍀 with the way they're building the future. Kristap sees how fact NYC fan base is. What y'all did to melo you'll do to him.
Those Dirk contested turnarounds are fucking gorgeous!
I said this earlier and imma say it again. KP WILL BE AN ALLSTAR THIS SEASON MARK MY WORDS.
Kristaps Porzingod yeah maybe
Its votes and Basketball is more popular in Europe now. He is allstar lvl and all fans love tall players. Not only chinese fans voted for Yao(he got more votes than Shaq as a Rookie). He is a popular player young and future mvp. Unless he plays shit he will be allstar he dont need 30ppg. Just a couple more like this and 22ppg
lol
Some BS lol
I've been through so much pain watching the knicks but now we're finally doing good it feels good to be a knicks fan again
Knicks still suck ass lol, but at least you have a future as long as KP stays in NY.
@@NyQuilDonut he is in Washington now after Mavs not using KP properly
he can make a career out of that one post fade spin
Parker Ball i feel like he should learn the skyhook. With his size and length, having that shot would make him unstoppable.
Eddie Thomas yea. i think he plans to work with dirk this season so hopefully he can learn a couple moves
Parker Ball fr it's soo smooth too
So basically Dirk? lol
Porzingod 🔥
porzingis that guy!!! the new dirk!! Nice!
Best PF in the East #StayMe7o
GodMelo Anthony W
GodMelo Anthony Milsap is better
Good Man Just stfu
Kevin Love
dropped 27
Averaging 20+ points per game
and 10+ rebounds per game
GodMelo Anthony Millsap and Love are still better
KP went off tonight with a career high 35 points. Carmelo finished with 22, D. Rose with 15.
Next Dirk with defense and more aggressive
Defense?
JAMES HARDEN 3time dpoy Just something Harden doesn't have...
JAMES HARDEN 3time dpoy okc took that W
JAMES HARDEN 3time dpoy lmao
Dirk ain't nowhere near Porz..Dirk only can shoot that’s it.
PORZINGOD. Atleast we're 5-6 now. closer to .500
7'3 with a fadeaway? HAHAHAHA. Literally unguardable
Him being so humble on/off-court, that makes me a huge fan of KP! Also the fact he is indeed the closest thing to a unicorn.
I love you Kristaps. Not gay.
lol
Maybe just a little bit gay.
Future mvp, future all star, future scoring champion, future nba champion, future finals mvp, future hall of famer
He told y'all when he got drafted that he wasn't soft!
Awesome, talented and intelligent
About time
I'm excited to see him help the Knicks get a championship. This guy is special.
KP6 to allStar 2017
Who else notices someone say OUUUU when the Knicks score ?
I felt so bad for this kid on draft day when all the Knicks fans were booing him. Nobody deserves that, on what should be one of the greatest days of their life. Glad to see him being successful and putting all those fans in their place.
Member when the knicks fans booed this god of a player? Cause i do.
Frank everyone's happy for you
Bruh I would have been like boo now bitches and I'm using this time to say fuck the Knicks I'm out the Warriors
oooo i member!
he is so underrated
i still remember back when this dude was drafted and Knicks fans literally booed him
clutchmamba I remember how people wouldn't let that go
Knicks 4 Life I'm guessing you participated in that
*Literally* booed him? As opposed to metaphorically booing him??
how do you not literally boo someone?
Felipe A. You don't need to say literally.. You would only say literally if there could be some misunderstanding about whether you meant it *literally* or in some other kind of way. Like if you said you were thrown out of a bar. If you said you were *literally* thrown out of a bar then that would mean you were actually physically picked up and thrown out as opposed to just being asked to leave.
Porzingis + Melo= best scoring duo in the East
Wish we could turn back time, to the good ole days..
Knicks fans dont deserve this guy
^ GTFOH It wasn't just about the people who booed him that night. There were a lot of tweets from Knicks fans about how it was a bad pick, and Stephen A bitching about it non stop as well as reports that Melo wasn't on board with it either.

Casey Palmieri ^
Casey Palmieri why so?
on my birthday will never forget!
I still remember new york fans booing him, when he got drafted
1:12 Dat face though
They Booed this Kid, remember that.
Years from now after kp retires a knick and left a footprint of multiple chips ppl who comment on youtube will have the 'last laugh'..."they still booed him tho"
MURASAKIBARA REBOUND DUNKING!!!!!
straight up dominating 1:54
A future NBA legend! Give him 2 more years and no team will have an answer...
MVP PORZINGOD
See what happens when we use the PnR instead of the dumbass Triangle, Phil?
#freehornacek
lol
damn right!
Then I don't think you really understand Triangle because Triangle is all about pick and roll... literally in three ways..
Just ask Steve Kerr and the GSW
Triangle is not dump, they just haven't learned it yet, the Triangle is like a super PnR beast
wow....
Tnx for vid ;)
porzing is so good
B Kri-Staps! 💯✊
Moments porzingis on 2k going to be god like
come again?
When The Knicks figure it out its going to get interesting to see them play against the Cavs and Warriors both potential championship match ups.
face at 1:12 LOL
Future star of the NBA
Latvian legend !! 😉👍

Beast
Pass from Jennings was class ;)
Yo he's on fire
KP should join BOTH the 3 point shooting AND slum dunk contests this year!
Remember when the knicks all booed him as he was drafted lol?
Frog remember when people kept bringing that up oh wait..
Frog remember when talking about this was funny? Me neither
Frog that was like 10 fans
yea like 20 or less people booed him , i geuss those 20 count as all knick fans
^ And Stephen A threw a bitch fit about it, and Melo reportedly didn't like the move either. The general consensus was that he was a bad pick for the Knicks don't try to rewrite the past. Also all you Knicks fans who are sick of hearing about how shitty you are as fans well TOO BAD. If he leaves and signs a max contract somewhere else it would be exactly what the Knicks franchise deserves.
MVP
PorzinGOD
My favorite NBA team in the eastern conference is THE NEW YORK KNICKERBOCKERS!!! since 1964.
How the FUCK are you supposed to guard him????
santino anthonyz you cant.
LOL just like Anthony Davis, and KG..... you foul lol, but make it look accidental as much as you can
it's impossible, he can score from ANYWHERE on the court. What l love is that dagger look after every made shot. You can see that look of satisfaction, like every one of them is for the doubters who used to make fun of him. ln a few years, he will be stronger and wiser, he will own NY, and this league.
Accidental elbows to the ribs, stepping on his toes and knees to the thighs. Scraping your cleat down the back of his foot is also an option.
food poisoning is another too LOL
PORZINGOD
so cute i love it
7 feet tall but that turn around fade room temperate butter. Too smooth
That's what happens when someone other than the one who has failed for the past several years becomes the main scorer (for a night anyways)
he's made 20+ points for like a couple games right now.. it's definitely not just for a night
AnJ B I'm saying ballhog Melo keeps trying to be the guy when it has to be KP
Cavaliers Owned Larriors 3-1 true, when I was watching the game today.. I was like pass it to Kp.. but Melo isn't doing that much ball hogging as he used to
AnJ B Must be in the games I haven't watched, because on the game opener the ballhogging was at an all time high
Cavaliers Owned Larriors 3-1 well compared to a couple of years ago the ball hogging has gone down
His New York accent was the highlight for me!
LV Beast
and Knicks fans booed this man. smh.
From a country of less than 4 Million, Latvia has produced a beast.
Good times
give that boy the ball more
This dude has potential to be as good as my boy Scal.
KP6 !
#KristapsForPresident
seeing a 7'3 man do a spin move, then hit a fall away is fucking terrifying.
Jā mazāāa!!!
Drake trying to smash Doris Burke 😂😂😂
Sweet Tweet 😂😂
Sweet Tweet it's not Doris lol
He has no confidence. At least he could hit on Kristen.
who wouldn't want to lol she's cute af
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What's wrong with D. Rose seems like he don't like to pass the ball to KP at PnR look at 2:51. Same thing happens most of the time they do PnR. He must be salty because he ain't the 1st or 2nd option. LOL
bangbang shashimi i thought it was just a part of the triangle offense, the D will be pulled to the extra player, leaving the roll/fade man free
bangbang shashimi I think your thinking wrongly, he is clearly setting up KP. They also focus on drose too much when he drives than when he passes it out to Noah or mostly Jennings they have the easy job of just passing it to KP. btw idk if you saw but most of the times he would have a mismatch
thats how the triangle works. They still need to master the game but this night, it was kp6 night
run the offesne threw KP. Rose and KP Pick and roll all day. Make melo a second ir third option. They'll never win with him at the helm.
from chanting ''booooo'' to ''mvp''. What a shame NY
Красава!!!
Today Latvia & Latvians all around the world celebrate
the 98th Anniversary of the Proclamation of Independence!
Happy Birthday Latvia!
Did someone say ouuuuu at 2:19
Baby Dirk
Jokic vs Porzingis - Serbia vs Latvia,September Eurobsaket 2017,opening game
#porzinGOAT
Lets hope Porzingis can keep handing L's
Let see if you can hold this L
Kevin DurGOAT Your name alone is an L
The whole "hold this L" thing is gay as fuck.
I NEED TO SEE EMBIID VS POZINGIS
That's one tall Latvian!
we got an all star in NYC
Just because he plays in NYC he will make the Allstar team this year.. You heard it here first
Heard it here first because nobody else is stupid enough to think he'll make the All Star team because he's on the Knicks.. He clearly is doing enough to make it on his own merits.
I'm not trying to be mean but wow he speaks English better than I thought
CELTICS BABY
Is it just me, or is his accent so much better than it was last year?
Its funny, because right before watching the interview at the end, it made me think of Dirk and how good his english was and kind of made me wonder how good KP's would be. I just didn't expect it to be that good that quickly.
KG fused with Dirk. This kid is going to be good...
I said this days ago that they needed to run the ball through my boy more and people disagree saying D Rose needs to do it, smh.
Michael Simmons well after all he is the PG and can playmake.....and after all they did set KP up majority of the game....but a few points was on his own
Culley DaGawd I'm talking about scoring and taking more shots not facilitating 😒 in the beginning it was forced triangle with Melo and Rose taking more shots than KP. When it should be KP taking more or as many shots, he should at the very least be the second go to guy behind only Melo.
Michael Simmons oh yeah I rather they run triangle plays thru him if that running the triangle
Unicorn spotted

Who was the obvious pick for the #4 spot? The draft was pretty top heavy at the time. The "obvious" picks were Okafor and Towns, and anything after that was kind of a crapshoot.
#proud
i do not like the kp6 nick name, keep it simple with just porzinggod
Daniel Cooney u think we like porzinggod ?
I think Porzingod is a shitty nickname too. There's something wrong with NBA fans where they absolutely HAVE to force a nickname on any good player even if that nickname is garbage. Blake Griffin for example.
Daniel Cooney I like "Zingis Khan"
Tingus Pingus
Am I the only one that thinks Jeremy Lin and him sounds alike? lolol.
The league is tough but give him a few year or two, he definitely be in the top votes for MVP. Right now, it's like Harden, Westbrook, Lillard are pretty much people's top choices.
did the Knicks win if they didn't I was about to say
JAMES HARDEN 3time dpoy yeah, almost lost from those bullshit 3s KCP was hitting
PORZINGOD IS THAT YOU?!?!
