The wolves thought they were going to get KAT in a two player deal With Randle being able to score points like him and dontae 3% but KAT is out doing them both
Twolves had it going the built it up right and finally got the duo they needed in KAT AND ANT. I don’t know what they were thinking. The spacing is so screwed now.
The Knicks have been getting fleeced for decades. It's nice to see finally they got one.
KAT is soo good, he's averaging 14 boards/g
You addressed two major concerns with Minnesota right now (lack of shooting & Randle's bad fit with the team on both ends), but it's incomplete without also pointing out two things:
– Mike Conley has regressed big time. Went from 11ppg/6apg to 8ppg/5apg and his shooting went from 45/44/91 to 33/35/90. He's the only "true" point guard on this team and if he plays horribly the entire offense grinds to a halt. – The defense completely collapses without Gobert on the floor, because without him Minnesota plays Naz Reid and Julius Randle as their two big men. They provide no paint protection and their rebounding is terrible.
Minnesota needs a legit point guard and a legit big man (preferably a Conley-lite and a Gobert-lite), but trading for their needs is extremely difficult because they're in the second apron. It's gonna be a long season for them.
Knicks winning the title while the T-Wolves miss the playoffs would make this trade the most Timberwolves trade that's ever Timberwolves traded.
They should bench Randle and play Naz instead. He is a way better baller at both ends. Come on finch, grow some balls would ya
Wolves are full of talented ball hogs… every single one of them think they are the man.. none of them are.
this is hard one to watch… KAT COME HOME😢
As a nuggets fan, I highly respect the wolves and ant. That KAT trade was sad to see, the chemistry of the team was beautiful to watch. I also highly respect Tim Connelly and can’t believe he allowed that trade.
KAT going missing when it mattered was another reason he got traded. They are trying to increase Randles value trade before naz in the starting lineup
KAT had his chance. If he'd got the big pay day. No guarantee he would play for it.
Last year I thought it was OKC and Dallas in the conference finals. sheesh
Not a big fan of Kat but seeing him in knicks with that kind of hustle and grit, he is progressing there! I feel so happy for him 😊 Kat in Knicks is just different! A total beast ehh
To be fair to Dante, he went from being a starter which he worked has asf to get to, to getting traded and coming off the bench. That would affect anybody's mentality on the court. The new team doesn't respect you.
KAT was just simply a better fit. Take away KAT and Randle and the knicks still have a better team.
🧞♀️👾😈
KAT can shoot, no doubt. But “generational shooting”? LOL
the original sin was thinking that Kat wasn't capable of playing the center position. If they wanted to experiment as a power forward they could do it at no cost since they had taken Kessler from the draft. I've been saying it for years: Kat, as we had also seen in the playoffs the year before, was ready to explode and dominate as a tactical center, similar to Jokic. Once Gobert was taken, it was too late, we were stuck with the salary cap and the transfer was inevitable.
KAT was too expensive. Trading Kat wasn't the mistake, the trade the Twolves made was. Randle and DiVincenzo are literally a coin flip on them showing up or not. Twolves suck at passing overall.
Too much talent to not be a good team – ANT has to shoot less threes the same goes for Randle. If they find that ball distribution balance the IF refers to the coach and the quality of the game planning. If that happens then this team is elite.
………..
They fuxked up thinking J.Randle would give them anything more than 20 a game. Donte can only shoot you out the Arena if he is wide open or coming off a screen, Gobert is going go give you rebounds sure but can you outscore the opposition?
Ants gonna diminish his legacy and waste away if he doesn’t leave the wolves.
I still remember sooo many people saying the Knicks f’d up and that the Wolves won this trade lol. I still can’t believe the Wolves made this trade
Check the numbers they had no choice but to make the trade you couldn’t keep towns, Ant-man and the Frenchman because it’s gonna take up like 70% of your salary. Do your research before you make a stupid video.
Trading Kat and keeping Rudy Gobutt is crazy work and one of the dumbest trades in NBA history
It's not a mistake until we see the final outcome. Was Randle simply a pawn to be traded later?
As a lifelong Knicks fan I am so sorry that your front office got fleeced. Having to watch Ju and his absolute SHIT attitude and demeanor the last few years was brutal. We wanted to love him but he is just a stat filler. Doesn’t make anyone better, stalls the game to a grinding halt. If I were in Minnesotas front office I would move him IMMEDIATELY.
Kat was a mixed bag but trading him for a Julius downgrade was not the move
5:07 I need one of you hoopers to explain what goes through Julius Randles mind when he does this shit 5 times a game😂 It can’t just be lack of effort
Easy drop Julius and start Naz. This was an abyssssssiiiimal trade
As a knicks fan, I, honestly, didn't think we won the trade at the time because we lost D in the trade, none of us really cared about Randle but D was a hard hit. Now seeing it, I can't believe we won a trade lol.
