So are the New York Knicks! Sure, the NBA is likely to push the draft back to mid-November. And the 2021 regular season may not even start till actually 2021. And the Nazi pawn in power in D.C. looks more likely to launch a civil war than concede the election to the Republican the Democrats have nominated to replace him. So who knows if we’ll even still be healthy, sane or alive enough in a few months to fight over who the Knicks draft (or don’t)? If we’ll last till day one of the Thibodeau Era? We may never see another Julius Randle spin move.
So let’s mailbag. Ask a question. Offer a hypothetical. Get into narrative. Statistics. Big picture. Small picture.
