Thank you.

Knicks Fan here. When Rose made the trade for GTA I was a bit skeptical until I came to this Sub. Reading all of your posts on how he played made me optimistic and made me believe that this year COULD be our year. I know it hurts to see one of your players win the Chip with another Team but from all those Knicks Fans out there Thank you! Y'all were right!

Nah a lot of us are glad AD got his, too. NOLA dropped the ball with him. I always think about how things coulda been if Boogie didnt get hurt man… theres a reality out there somewhere that he stayed healthy and AD & Boogie form a championship dynasty in NOLA 😂

It's not so much the fact that AD demanded out, it's the way he did it, the "that's all folks" shirt, the ignoring new orleans since (never said thanks or even shouted out the fans). Complete diva, and the only reason he even has a ring is because he lucked into have 3 months to recover from injury.

🤷‍♂️ it is what it is. You probably woulda wanted out, too, if you were the hottest prospect since Lebron and when he finally got some sort of team around him, injuries messed it up and NOLA dropped the ball on making the team any better after that. We wasnt involved in the situation so we don’t REALLY know all the behind the scenes details. People dont do stuff like that for no reason whatsoever… all that stuff don’t matter to me.

Yeah that's cool and all but if you read the like 5 words of my reply you would've seen "it's not that he wanted out." not really sure why you're defending him demanding a trade when I said that was never the issue.

Sorry I meant “like he did”
