I know we put another nail in the Zion coffin, but nice to see our young players leaving it all on the court and get a win.

Got to say, pretty happy with the Knicks. Going to take two years for this to gel but I can see things coming together…

I’d say Lou is an all around offensive player for sure

Seeing Mudiay get as much time as he did (deservedly so tonight), is not a good sign for Burke.

I mean, yeah, he’s a poor defender at this point, but he’s also a 19 year old rookie playing his 9th game of the season while averaging 19.5 / 6.3 /4.4 with decent efficiency in a bad team. What more do you want? Rookies are generally bad and specially defense is a big struggle early on, specially for a kid whose body is clearly still not in 100% NBA shape. If any rookie not named Doncic, meaning without the hype, was playing like this people would be going crazy. Hell, we’re here gushing about Trier, rightfully so, when he’s producing a lot less on average.

Knox=TBD

And our #9 pick is coming back next game?

And our #4 pick from 2015 will be back not too long from now?

I need smelling salts…

How does Trier’s contract work? Is he UFA next year?

RFA, so more likely, they’ll tear up the two-way contract and agree to a two-year minimum deal, unless Trier is super confident in his ability to get a huge contract as a restricted free agent.
