One thing I’ll say about Perk is that he always has good things to say about the Knicks.
This was a good take by Perk ngl
Stephen A on the Knicks: 🤬
Stephen A on the Cowboys: 🤣
Perfect balance as all things
Shaq was on the show a couple of years back and said to Stephen a that the Knicks were the cowboys of the NBA lol
Clown
The difference is Stephen A is not deluded about the Knicks as Skip is to the Cowboys.
@@sdcazares1980 but when the knicks mess up everybody laughs at him but only the delusional cowboys fans laugh harder than anybody else
Knicks should just keep building on what they already have. They’re a good team
This team hit their ceiling last year. You not gonna make the ecf with randle and rj on the same team
@@ozg78how when the younger players gon keep getting better ?
@@ozg78 yeah but randle and brunson are on insanely good contracts. Def better to build around the two of them than trade them for dudes making 40m+
I can tell none of ya watch the Knicks if you think Randle should stay. They should’ve got rid of him last year
@@ozg78you are right. This is as good as they get. They’re not going any further without a roster improvement
If I’m the Knicks you definitely trade Randle for Siakam if that deal is on the table, Perk was right on this one
It's basically a even trade the Knicks aren't any better with siakam he's not taking them the a ECF or NBA finals
Absolutely. SAS once again showing he’s never played ball.
@robertspinks9509 I'd argue it's a downgrade. Randle was hurt. But I think he has a higher ceiling still than Siakam especially with him bring so physically strong and he's typically very reliable
Stephen A’s facial reactions got me crying 😂😂😂
The Cedric the Entertainer bit about delicious always has me laughing. "YO DELICIOUS!!" 😂😂
Franchise finally being fairly sensible. Slowly build the team and use your assets for a player thats worth it and move the needle to a ECF.

Stephen A's face when Pascal Siakam came up lmao
He immediately looked like he clinched his but cheeks like he caught instant diarrhea. 😂😂
Julius was hurt. I can’t blame him. You get more comfortable in the playoffs the more you get there. Give them some time, build on the foundation you already have
I hear you brother but I can’t agree with that as a Knicks fan in the postseason his numbers drop horribly
Body language is a problem, he has to be better
@@blacczaid7211 as the leader of that team, that’s true
Him being hurt doesn't explain why he gives full effort one play, misses a shot, and then is non-existent on defense the next 3 plays
@@coreyhansen9711 I’m sorry, when was Julius ever considered a defensive star or even an average defender?
@6:25 there you go. That's the only flaw I got with Randle. He needs to stay positive and not look mad every time something goes south. It's a game of runs and it always won't go your way.
He's a choker
He needs to stop forcing shots also and lhas poor handles
@@Legieyna your mom is,I know from experience 😉
@@AustinWilliams-sp7oq great counter
Pascal on the knicks would average like 9 assists per game. Extremely underrated passer and he can guve you 27-10-9 a night
Lol ESPN be milking that Stephen A Smith Knicks rants
I'm always happy when a broadcaster is yelling at their favourite team.
Learning he played the whole time at Kentucky with a broken foot is crazy too
SAS response :
YEAAAAA, HE COULD PLAY!!!😂
As long as Randle is on the roster the 2nd round is the ceiling
"I Ain't calling no grown man delicious"🤞🏾💯😂😂
I really hate this narrative of players needing to be enemies all the time like the old days.
As if Micheal Jordan wasn’t golfing with other players during the offseason. The only difference is back then you didn’t see it because of social media.
You can have friends off the court but on the court your my enemy. Idk why it’s hard for these analysts to understand
Yes…. BUT… MJ was also nasty on the court against guys he played golf or cards with off the court 💯 They all understood what it was, and many of them were nasty on the court too. You don’t see that much at all today 😂
Golfing with them and playing pick up ball with them is two totally different things.
@@SupaNatural28you really think players back in the day didn't play pick up against each other in the off-season?
Watch the Last The Dance. Michael Jordan played golf with Danny Ainge in between PLAYOFF games. As long as you compete when the ball tip. Who cares who are friends with who when they are off the court.
I think we're all missing the point here. You can take opposing players out with your mom for dinner outside games but what players then did was to want to kill each other on the court. Not dab each other up after games and talk forming superteams.
Yo… Molly just outed SAS with her comment about being called “Spicy.” 💯😂😂😂
Randle literally had surgery right after the season, but sure let's hammer him
What has Ty Lue done as a coach since he won that title with Cleveland?
Ty Lue is one of the top 5 coaches in the game that's what he's done.
Umm be one of the best coaches in the league.... Hmm maybe something else 😑😑😑😑😑
@@QUEReacts How has he done that? Mediocre regular seasons? 2 series won over 3 years? He’s won 50 games twice, both of which happened with LeBron in Cleveland, he’s won 2 series in 3 years as head coach of the Clippers. He’s a good coach, he’s yet to prove himself as an exceptional one. Just this past postseason I watched him march an all-guard lineup towards the suns in the closing moments of those games, to matchup against Kevin Durant and Deandre Ayton in what were winnable games yet.
Can’t blame Ty Lue for PG and Kawhis health. They never play
@@nicholasadams5023 Absolutely I do feel for him with that, it’s been a horribly frustrating reality for that squad.
Facts SAS,Perk speaking truth too!
Lol that "dammit" 😂😂😂
Pascal is a lateral move
Yes Perk. Get Siakam for Randle. Tell Hartenstein to work on his 3s and chain Mitchell Robinson to the free throw line so he can hit at least 60 percent, and the Knicks are back in the second round easily with a legit chance to make it to the ECF.
🤔
Everyone including the cavs gonna get better u back too first round exit
@@Fatboyjo2.1😂😂😂 shut up yall got that gentle sweep foh 🧹
@@Fatboyjo2.1... Seeing how the Knicks are Jekyll and Hyde... I wouldn't be surprised if they missed the playoffs next year because Brunson has been put on notice!
Why would the raptors trade for a worst player than Siakam
2:21 can agree more
2:00 lmaooo
@7:51 Spicy P 😂😂😂
Stephen A is not a true Knicks fan. What a joke
I totally agree with you having them replace Thibs with Ty Lue
Keep building NYK
😂popcorn 😂
Yea julius was avg 21 a game in n.o but was only 23 years old kid developing once he turned 26 he started performing on a all-star level i think he'd become better in n.o this time around in a trade package for zion which many people compared the 2
We are doing well so far, but we need another star and give Tibs one more year. We have to get rid of Randell due to the toxic mentality he has when he doesn't feel like playing or has a meltdown. Im just saying!
Facts
How was the question how much better can they be and they just slander Randle instead of mentioning how we could upgrade the roster trading for another star or solid role players lmfao
What could he be ranting about now 😂
He's so emotional about the least important things
LOL poor spicy P!
Knicks fans have been in pain since the 90s 😂 it's starting to look up with the Brunson addition though..
We’ve been in pain since 1973, man! 🤬
@@PharaohLawLess1that statement is disrespectful to Patrick Ewing
@@usman5140 Did Ewing give us a championship???
@usman5140 no he didn’t as a Knicks fan since 1991 it still hurts to say that every time I see PAT RILEY I GO INTO A 😡
Julius Randle for Damian Lillard is insane 😭
Lillard is 33. Bradley Beal, who is 4 years younger, was traded for an ancient CP3 and some 2nd round picks, so insane can happen. As I would strongly consider taking Siakam for Randle. Same age and similar stats, but Siakam shoots better and gets more assists. Randle gets more boards., but he's been real bad in the playoffs (34% FG!)
Julius Randle is an ALL NBA player
@@TruthSpeaker4 so 😭
@@polofrost5078 top 15 player umad 😆
@@TruthSpeaker4 nah I like Randle but he doesn’t even compare Lillard in any capacity lol
Been a while we got any ny rant
As a knicks fan i would randle for siakam in a heartbeat
9:30 zion?????
9:35 perk: oh?????
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
kendrick perkins sayin he saw growth out of grimes in the post season is wild. he averaged like 5 a game on 27% from the field or something like that 1-6 in game 6
8:20 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Raptors aren't giving up spicy for Randal 😂
9:40 bunch of "PPPP"ick!
Hard "P's" 😂
randle for siakiam is crazy
When SAS is crying, Cowboy fans everywhere feel this little joy inside out of nowhere 😂😂
Knick’s need more fire power
And how you a die hard Knicks fan but you boycotted???? Stephen is a character
They didn’t mention that randle was playing through a injury. He got surgery immediately after the playoffs.
Everyone injured in the playoffs lmao 💀💀
Perk's laugh at the start is so funny
Lmaoo this rant goes to Jaylen Brown as well
Funny how they bring up a raptors player in a trade talk but willl jever think about raptors when a free agent available or a good player to be traded like Lillard or any other
They slept on Brunson after his run in Luka’s absence, they slept on Brunson after he received his contract and, now it seems like people still haven’t learned. Jalen Brunson is a Jamal Murray level player and, he has plenty of room to grow. Jalen Brunson is a great piece to have. The Knicks have plenty of assets and, they are in a great position for success. The Knicks are not far off from being serious contenders, they are just missing a few pieces.
But they should stay away from brown the turnover machine xith barniehandles
Yeah it's crazy to say now the league will notice after a full season and playoffs were Brunson went crazy. Elite teams wouldve been stopping Brunson before all star break if it was possible.
It’s not just Julius. It’s RJ as well. They both need to work on their right hand frfr to improve their game
Hey at least we swept the Cavs 😂😂😂😂😂😂
All we need is for randle to make QUICKER decisions when he gets the ball
He needs to be traded asap,you can risk zion but there is also siakam..another superstar SG is what knicks need..randle is holding barret back also
SA really never stop screaming man😂
Siakam is basically Julius Randle. And I'd rather have Julius honestly.
THE NEW YORK KNICKS ARE A SUPERB TEAM THAT HAS BEEN BUILT THROUGH THE DRAFT AND VERY CAREFUL FREE AGENT SIGNING. THE KNICKS SHOULD CONTINUE THE TRAJECTORY THEY HAVE TAKEN SO FAR. IT WILL LEAD THEM TO A CHAMPIONSHIP.
At this point Stephen a Smith just playing a character with these knicks rants 😒 this rant makes no sense
He’s such a casual
You get out there Steven A and show Randle how to do it.
Perk is delusional again Masai will never trade Siakam for Randle
Molly is such a troll lol
I love that he's saying this because SAS is wrong about the Knicks 100% of the time
So tired of his bs on the Knicks
Podcast P is one of the best podcast out. Chill
Averaging 25 and 10 with his left hand ain't bad.
He can plaaaaaaay 🤣
Spicy P
Knicks need to stay the course. Take the experience from this season - get growth from IQ, Grimes, RJ and now Dante for depth in addition to BrunsHIM and randle they can be a playoff team and wait for the right deal with all their picks
Knicks needs a stretch 5 to open up the paint and keep opposing centers from double teaming. End of story.
Perk Randle Ankle was hurt
RJ Barrett as a number 2 option? Yeah ok, he's nowhere close
The Knicks should trade Randle and get whatever they can get for him. We played better when he was on the bench anywY
shaq and kobe was chemistry, jamal murray and jokic is chemistry not brunson and randle; thats a one sided carry by brunson
its called a ✨point guard✨ julius.. thats why they are important on a team
Problem saying Spicy P, but you've been calling a man Magic Johnson and never bat an eye
Thank you for making these videos. I am a baseball fan at heart, but I like all sports in general. However, I do follow the NBA during playoff time. And Stephen A. is a hoot!! LOL He is so emphatic with his opinions that you could almost misconstrue them as fact.
Perk literally only speaks facts about the Knicks. Refreshing
He almost dropped the N Bomb at 2:14 lol
Siakim is the most underrated player in the league
Spicy P for Draymond 🎯💯
as a knicks fan, it's important to point out the team is not his
Siakam is better than Randle though so it would help the Knicks
The fact “SA” thinks Pascal is not better than RJ is crazy it’s straight hate but I give Perk the credit for acknowledging Pascal
I hope he show some humbleness. You can't win them all.
I like randall as a number 3 guy
Put Siakam on the Knicks, just watch Stephen A call him "Spicy P" in no time 😂
Spicy P (pause)
Randle or Barret need to go..one or the other it don't even matter which one the Knicks need consistent shooting and defense to get better
Listen up SAS! Toronto isn’t taking Julius Randle for Siakam 😂
There's no way in the world you can watch basketball and say you'd rather have Julius Randle on your team over Siakam 😅 We serious? So SAS just admits he doesn't watch anybody but big market teams
Yes fool, Randle is a way more useful player. Siakam simply had a great season on a mediocre team. Randle could have averaged 30 playing on that wack Toronto team. The Knicks need 3point shooting, not a roster overhaul
@@pattycakes1439acting like siakam isn't a more accomplished player than Randle.
perc rly said Siakam gonna make the knicks better 💀
Say what you want about Randall’s playoff performance the Knicks don’t go to the playoffs or have the year they have without Julius randall. He balled out this past season but he gassed out in the playoffs. But the Knicks don’t get to the 5 seed without him
He didn’t gas out, he had a BAD ANKLE.
I’d trade RJ for Pascal but not Julius Randle
As a Knicks fan born and raised in NYC, once you accept that they will never win a championship in your lifetime, it becomes much easier to watch them whenever you can.
😀🤷♂️😅😭
Julius Randle for Bam Trade is the only one that makes sense !!!!!
Randle was literally hurt. Brunson is an absolute star. RJ is rising. Mitch is a dog. We have a team of gritty players. Honestly, if the Knicks had Pop or Spoesltra as their coach, they would've been playing the Nuggets most likely
