Knicks FO’s Plan for Towns, Mitch & Yabusele Revealed!🍿👀 #shorts
So, Knicks fans, now that we have our new coach, here’s something really interesting. According to Ian Begley, the Knicks front office actually valued Gershan Abuselli’s versatility off the bench behind a starting lineup of Carl Anthony Towns and Mitchell Robinson. And that means that there’s real internal support for a Towns Mitch front court with Yabuselli as that backup piece who can guard multiple spots and stretch the floor. So, this shows that the Knicks are not planning to start Deuce McBride in the rotation and they’re planning to start Mitchell Robinson instead. Look, we don’t know exactly what Mike Brown’s rotation will look like, but the fact that this was part of the Knicks thinking during free agency, that tells you everything about the kind of size, defense, and versatility they want around this core. So stay tuned. This team might not be done
Knicks fans, the front office’s vision for Karl-Anthony Towns, Mitchell Robinson and Guerschon Yabusele is becoming clearer after Ian Begley’s latest report.
Here’s what it means for the Knicks lineup and what could come next.

Seems like the starting lineup has been revealed… are you on board with it? 👀🧐
Would prefer the bench to be McBride, Clarkson, Yabu, and Robinson and then any of the SF can play with those four.
Who tf thought Deuce would be a Starter 😅
I'm loving this new bench depth.
Sure up Delon and Shammet and LesssGOooo!
KAT as the center was a nightmare for the teams defense. Can’t rely on that for half a season.
Guard multiple spots?? He is NOT a good defender at all.
Hart cannot start. Period.
Don't be surprised if Yabusele starts because he can stretch the floor and shoot the 3.🤔
I think so far with the additions of Clarkson and Yabusele to the bench are great pickups. We needed depth. And also Hukporti will be a great back up Center.
I thought that was the plan all along. We have two bad defenders. Surround them with all good long defenders. 🤷🏾♂️ then run the Princeton offense with kat at the top, allows Brunson to dribble and bridges to cut. OG is one of the best corner shooters in the league and Mitch is one of the best offensive rebounders in the league.
Knicks going to be a problem
I’m not sure the Yabusele signing is a surefire indication of Mitch starting. Their big depth isn’t any better than last year, when they had Precious, Huk and Sims (for 2/3 of the season).
Their guard depth hasn’t changed much, so it’s not like Deuce starting is off the table. I don’t see that happening, I’m just saying reading anything into signing one big while losing others is pure internet speculation. The coaching change is a far bigger sign that lineups may change.
This team is much deeper than last season and I want results immediately 😂
I still wish they wouldve got a dead eye 3pt shooter like a donte was. Which was why i was hoping they wouldve traded up for kobe brea who would be on a cheap 2nd round contract. He was a vanderbilt aaron nesmith-like 3pt shooter in college
McBride needs to come off the bench with Hart
Im not going to lie i dont like mitch with kat full time only because mitch health i would save mitch by having him back up towns. They guy the pick up is actually a better fit next to towns he spaces the floor but he physical in the paint on defense and offense he has the speed that mitch doesnt. Or they would have to keep hart in the lineup and get a back up sf they have options but i dont think its going to be karl and mitch together
They just building trade assets before the deadline.. Mitch will be gone eventually
They need to trade McBride and Robinson
Still need a back center, cuz Mitch will be down with an injury just like he is every season
I think you start Mitch and have Yabusele end games, Mitch is too much of a liability down the stretch
Need to trade Josh Hart for a bigger wing tbh, He’s too small at times and teams don’t respect his shot. He also makes bone headed plays
Knicks need a 2 way shooting guard that can shoot 3s high efficiency! Like they had with Divi!
Booooo
So the players off the bench are Deuce, Clarkson, Hart, Yabu, and Huk. I likey.
Estoy muy ilusionado con este nuevo equipo, el cual debe tener una nueva mentalidad; ya que el sistema de Thibodeau era muy predecible.
Respectfully trade Robinson
If mitch still on this team at the beginning of this next season I'm done with this team. That man is a liability, his defense doesn't get close compensate his lack of offense. On defense it's 5v5 but on offense it's 4v5.
Lmao yabusele looks like current charles barkley playin ball😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They can't be done until they move KAT
