Will the Knicks play OG-Randle at the 4-5 spot with the Bench players?
Will the Knicks play Tyler & Deuce in the backcourt together?
Will Precious or Robinson play the Center when the Knicks go small with Hart as the PF?
Who will be the designated Center for the All-Villanova Knicks lineup (feat. Brunson, Bridges, DiVincenzo and Hart)?

Kolek will not be getting regular mins this year, unless through injuries or he goes crazy in practices and plays his way into a rotation spot
The Pistons could win like 20 extra games with this starting lineup.
Think Precious gets the backup center minutes (if there are any). Could look a bit dicey if Mitch misses time tho.
Simms erasure. He’s going to play this year. Kolek will ride the bench
best in nba history
How many games could that squad win if it was a starting lineup?
OG with the villanova boys will be scary come playoffs
I love Deuce, but if Kolek can run the offense the way everyone says, Deuce will probably get traded for a big man
If we can get a center that’s not precious and use precious as a backup PF, it is a perfect bench. 1 dude away, excited to see what Chef Leon cooks up
Greatest bench of all time
Deuce getting traded for a big
Gaping hole at center.
You mean extended starters?!
Would love to see a big center in the mix too. I liked that guy who looks like iHart. (Dimitri I think his first name is; he was on the G league team)
0 size off the bench is a huge concern of mine. it was bad last season and is even worse going into this year. If Mitch goes down, everything is out of wack.
Forgot Cam Payne!
Where’s Cam Payne?Kolek doesn’t have a chance in hell to win the backup PG spot unless he learns how to play defense.With the way his defense looked in summer league;it’s gonna be a long road until he’s up to Thibs standards.
Best bench in the league imho, I like others may just want to swap Precious for another big
Just a few seasons back we also had an amazing bench, in fact sometimes you wished the bench would come in to save the starters lol
Keep in mind I feel Thibs may play with the lineups a bit, and you will see a few mash ups of starters and bench players
I think we quite easily have the best trio of bench players in the league with Hart, Divo, and McBride (two of which could have started for more than half the teams in the playoffs last year) but after that things get shaky.
I expect them to make a move for a center at the deadline even if Precious exceeds the expectations of him.
My hope is Nick Richards. He is a guy who has a lot of defensive potential that just hasn’t been used right, he’s a lob threat and his rebounding is great.
Small but elite
I hope Kolek gets some minutes. His vision translates regardless of the level he’s playing at. He could seriously be the key to the bench unit.
Pretty mid
