When the certified bitches Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant decided to not even give the Knicks a meeting and signed with the Bogus Nets it threw the Knicks organization and fans into a tailspin. For months Knicks fans fantasized about upgrading their roster with at least 1 top tier free agent only to agree to contracts with Julius Randle, Bobby Portis, and Taj Gibson, Reggie Bullock, and Wayne Ellington.

What could the Knicks do? Kyrie’s mind was made up already and Durant also decided he was going to Bogus before the Knicks could contact him. That put the Knicks in a tough situation. They still want to be competitive while they rebuild so they signed a few PFs and SGs. Julius Randle isn’t a bum. Neither is Bobby Portis. The only questionable signing I see is Taj Gibson. Maybe the plan is to have him mentor the young bigs on how to defend? That’s a guess on my part and it still wouldn’t be a good use of resources.

In any case, the knicks are here. They’ve signed a bunch of guys to 2 year deals and will most likely be looking to trade them at the end of their contracts. All we can do now is HOPE RJ Barrett, Knox, and whoever else the Knicks draft next year and the year after pan out. That would be the best way to sell the Knicks as a destination. Chin up gents.

Julius Randle Highlights (Guy did average 21 and 9 last year. He does get buckets):

Guess what day it is??? Guess…what…day…it…is. Its draft night! Good day fellas. Lets pray to the basketball Gods for a moment so everything goes the way we need it to. On this mornings “Get UP” they talked about some interesting things regarding Free Agency. Like to see it? Here it goes:

In 2017 Kawhi played 23 minutes of game 1 of the Western Conference Finals before exiting the game with an ankle injury caused by the human hack Zaza Pachulia. The Spurs were up 78-55 at the time. Kawhi was bussin they ASS. In 23 minutes he had 26 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assist. With Kawhi in the locker room, the Warriors took advantage and won the game. The Spurs wound up losing the Conference Finals 4-0.

2 years later Kawhi got his revenge by eliminating the defending Champ Warriors in 6 games and winning the Finals MVP trophy. Congrats to that man.

I predicted Toronto in 7. If they pull it off, what I don’t want to hear is “They wouldn’t of won if the Warriors didn’t have to deal with injuries”. The first time the Cavs faced the Warriors in the finals(2015) Kyrie played 1 game and Kevin Love didn’t play at all. Injuries happen.

The Warriors and Raptors played twice this year. Each time the teams looked different:

Toronto won both times. Regular season success doesn’t mean they’ll have success in the playoffs BUT……I got Toronto winning in 7 (to keep it interesting). What say y’all?

Everyone is projecting RJ Barrett to the Knicks at 3. The kid can play. See below:

I’m still battling the idea that Jones was worth the 6th overall pick. I’m posting his snaps from some of the Duke games in 2018. Let me know what you think:

I’m not bothered by Arya being the one killing him.

It’s just how it happened. You hype this demigod up for 7 seasons, you talk about ‘winter is coming’ for all that time and then winter lasts one night. Daenerys tries to kill him with dragon fire, nothing happens. Arya stabs him with Valerian Steel – whose main component is dragon fire -and he dies.

Dude is a super bad guy and didn’t even take out his sword the whole battle. The whole dothraki army gets killed in 20 seconds but the rest of the army holds up for 200 minutes.

They had the Dothrakis leading the charge before even knowing that Melisandre was showing up to light their weapons up. So the Dothraki were gonna be useless with those weapons and they had them set up for the first strike.

How the fuck did Sam survive this? Tyrion, Sansa, Misandei. They aren’t fighters and were surrounded by thousands of wights a lot of times. Ser Jorah’s armor was able to withstand a Dothraki weapon before but gets pierced by one arrow thrown by a dead mofo.

C’mon man. The holes in this episode were just too much. What was Brann doing the whole episode? You hype him up as this magical Three Eyes Raven and he plays no part in the final battle whatsoever.

And then you got the Night King holding Arya with his hands without consequences for her. Need I remind you that Brann got hurt by the NK holding his arm for 2 seconds? Arya gets grabbed by the throat and it’s all good. They gave the entire cast a huge amount of plot armor. Everyone was supposed to be fair game in GoT. That was the beauty of the show. The fact that no main characters died in the biggest battle is a plain joke.

Now if Arya can skip past an entire army of wights, the White Walkers crew AND the Night King without being seen, what’s the point of the battle of Kings Landing?

Just send this girl alone and she’ll handle Cersei with the quickness.

They ruined the entire show. There were terrible ends to Lost, Prison Break and HIMYM. GoT just joined that list and it’s a fucking shame because it was the only TV show in history who didn’t follow the prototypical rules.

Fuck them.
