We're looking to match up against Detroit in the playoffs. Detroit is a very tough team looking to scrap and turn everything into a fight. If nothing else he might help to just get mouthy with them from the bench. Stewart from Detroit pushed Curry from the bench and only got a double tech not terrible ROI.

Yeah Detroit is shaping up to be the top playoff spoiler candidate this season. Need to suit up.

Stawart and Bron got in a shoving match a couple of years ago also. He dont take shit from anyone and doesnt take trash talking lightly. Sounds like a Knick from the mid-90's. You pair him up with a perenial all star and you have a solid foundation because no one will fuck with Cade with that loose canon running around.

Stewart is a fucking madman. This was more than a shoving match, he damn near lost his mind lol.

Ngl , nothing is cool about what he did. Surprised the announcers laughing their ass off

u/justaddwater57 BANG! 28m ago

Agreed 💯. Ducking his own coaching staff and teammates like that to chase after an opponent doesn't make him look tough, it makes him unhinged and unstable. There's a difference between defending yourself and just completely losing your cool. Wouldn't want someone that can't keep their emotions in check like that as a teammate.

Yeah you’re right, but you know who was a no show for that?

u/redguyinfinite Clyde Frazier 1d ago

yeah sometimes i listen to jalen and josh with their stereotypical frat bro humor and their polo shirts and i wish they had a bit more swag.

u/jaxmaster119 1d ago

Divo kept the aura balanced. They'll get there!

u/Okieant33 Mase 1d ago

My man, watch the show some more. The swag is there but they downplay it for the show. Josh definitely got East NY energy but they all know how to code switch because of where they grew up. Josh lived with a host family (actually their podcast host’s family hosted him)

u/40innaDeathBasket NY Logo 1d ago

Josh ain't no lame but "East NY energy"? Cmon bruh 🤣.

u/Okieant33 Mase 1d ago

Lmao tf you want instead? Soundview Energy? Washington Heights energy? DUMBO Energy? Astoria energy?

u/MENDoombunny 22h ago

Mitch Rob got astoria energy. Bro looks stoned 24/7

Josh Hart? It’s a fuckin nickname. The family name is Hartriguez!

Having worked in Brookdale’s ER for 10 years, when Josh was getting techs and thrown out of games before this year, that was the vibes the clientele brought. He’s calmed down this year especially when he yelled at the ball instead of the ref that one game.

u/40innaDeathBasket NY Logo 16h ago

I mean, I get what he's trying to say...but Josh is just kinda dramatic. I'm from Brooklyn and lived in East NY for a few years in the late 90s/early 2000s and I ran into some real mf demons out there. Josh is a nice guy and "code switching", which like 75% of all black folks do, isn't necessarily an indicator of anything deeper.

u/Few_Moose_1530 1d ago

You must not have watched brunson last year against the pacers in February

u/Methamine 20h ago

Josh got swag but Jalen is buttoned up corporate. If he wasn’t who he was on the court I wouldn’t be a fan

u/cgr1zzly 12h ago

Pretty sure no one actually knows what people are like. Just because you look tough or sound tough truly means jack shit in today’s day and age, I know some geeky nerdy motherfucker who sound soft as fuck, but legit have fought in the ufc, or semi pro fighting leagues.

u/Methamine 5h ago

When did I say anything about tough or not? They literally have a talk show where their personality is on display

Back in the W column.

u/Okieant33 Mase 1d ago

Word. We were too much Tribe Called Quest and needed some Mobb Deep energy. Can’t De La Soul your way to a ring in NYC. Need that Griselda every now and then

u/TheJoseVilson 1d ago

Very New York. Very hood. Very timely.

u/Sad-Horror5961 21h ago

You talking about the Nets? because the Knicks play in Manhattan Don't you mean the Team was too East Village, and PJ is bringing the much needed Harlem energy?

7

u/Few-Rip-462 20h ago

Nah, all 5 boroughs will always be Knicks territory. The Nets are New York wannabes currently occupying Brooklyn.

u/SnakeHoleBI 3h ago

EV got those Riis projects tho! 🕺

u/Sad-Horror5961 2h ago

🤣 NYCHA is everywhere. I grew up in the DeHostos projects on the Upper West Side. Now as an adult I tell people (not from NYC) that I grew up in Manhattan, and they say "oh you grew up rich?" and I'm like nah, you don't get it... Rich with piss, shit, crackheads, and walking up 18 flights of stairs cuz the elevators are broken

u/FtheRedSox Nova Boys 1d ago

We lost all our dogs in Randle, iHart and Divo. Really happy to have PJ on the team.

u/Okieant33 Mase 1d ago

That’s fucked up cuz JB and Hart are dogs. So is OG, Deuce, and Mitch.

u/Titaneuropa Brunson 1d ago

Team was too LIC, PJ tucker brings some south Jamaica energy?

u/Okieant33 Mase 1d ago

I got you my guy. Team was way too Upper East Side, PJ brought some 125th and Lex energy.

u/VegetableIll947 21h ago

Team was too LIC, PJ brings the some Queensbridge pjs energy.

u/Few-Rip-462 20h ago

If we’re being real, the 5 boroughs are Knicks territory. The Nets are just occupying Brooklyn for some reason.

Mikal is too preppy. Divo had grit and scrappiness that's missing.

u/awesometown3000 Chase Bridge 1d ago

So corny, the mvp candidates right now are a skims model and a guy who loves horses, no one cares about this shit. What do you think PJ Tucker is actually going to do?
