Knicks Preseason Presser

drkavarga · Post by **drkavarga** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 2:20 pm

Alright, alright, alright, it’s back again for another season of New York Knicks basketball. As usual everyone is cowering with fear of facing us this season. But then again we’re the Knicks and our haters are usually nothing but salty crybabies posting memes on social media with cookie crumbs on their stomach with they drawls on while sitting in their grandma’s basement. We’ve got Jokic, Harris, Dooley, Aleman, Locklear, McCall, Vick, Rubio, Stambaugh, and Kowalczyk. We’ll be good to go. Bringing in Rubio is the key. Defense wins championships and despite his age and the fact all anyone looks at is colors I think we can go far this season. If not we’ll at least be a playoff contending team. Don’t underestimate us or you’ll end up looking like a clown at the circus or worse, Hue Jackson coaching a football game.

Sham Smith, Bulls.com: Multi-part question...first, the commissioner has asked me to ask you to if there's anything preventing you from using TeamViewer instead of PM, and if there are any questions on how to best use it, the dude who referred to is happy to answer any questions.

Second, what is your plan for ducking the tax? The Knicks are in their fourth year over the tax, and as it stands, you'll be set to owe around 120 points (100 more than are in the bank, which still needs an update to account for some missing points from trades and some unclaimed points from last year which would end up netting you one extra point).

Why do you think the Bucks GM has targeted you specifically in his quest to trash talk your team to death? Do you have any plans to back down from fighting back?

Do you find talking smack talk helps your team, or do you think it gives a roster that could finish last in it's division and potentially not make the playoffs feel the pressure even more?

Between the points in the sign and trade and the contract you gave him, you paid a hefty price for Ted Adams. What led to you souring on him after one season?

To answer the first question, same thing as last season. Stuck in the past and won’t update to the present. Might need it rebooted or something along those lines.

To answer the second question it looks like I’m going to have a fire sale and get cheaper players, picks, and points in them. That’s the only way I see around this. However I’m not going to do any “bitch moves” in the process if you catch my drift.

Because he’s a whiny crybaby just like his team’s fan base. I’m not going to back down. Seriously he should spend more time worrying about his trash team than worrying about me. But then again he’s GMing in a crap hole like Milwaukee so if I were him I’d be mad all the time too.

I think it helps. It tells them I’ve got their back. The pressure only breaks the weak. Bring it on is what I say.

He didn’t fit the system. He’s a system guy. He’s either going to fit very well or not at all. His roller coaster career stat lines prove that. Our other PFs got the job done so I made the move.

There’s an update file that you have to run. No ones node is stuck in the past from my understanding.

Nick Melon; The Advocate: What do you think will have to be done to make the playoffs this year and have you had any progressive trade talks with other GM's on finding a new home for Gary Harris or Chet Dooley?

Big changes need to happen, either trading wise or strategy wise, that's number one. To answer your second question nope no progressive talks are happening.

If my team is trash... what does that make yours?

Welcome to the bottom of the standings, bro. How's your outlook past this season? Mine's looking good!

My team is struggling and still doing better than the Milwaukee Bitches. That sums everything related to that bullshit you just said quite well. Go back to trying to fist people for draft picks like you’ve been doing.

You might wanna take up that hobby since your team is going nowhere fast. Or you just gonna up and quit after your team has no talent to show and you rack up your unpayable tax bill?

Going nowhere fast is something you know all about. It seems like you know about unpayable things considering that sucking at games isn’t [edit by commish].
