I’m diggin the updates with the background!!
This dude Waffles more than Eggos
OH SH@T OH SH@T OH SH@T
Giannis doesn’t want to be on the Knicks. Dude is just throwing jokes, and drama baiting. Dude loves waffles/waffling more than anyone …
Been telling everyone he already told everyone he wants to go to New York. That's why no trade yet! Knicks can give more in the off-season and if the Knicks don't win it all it will go down
Thank you, Troy
We just need too keep Kat he need to tighten up if we win one with him we won’t be having these convos anymore .. Giannis stay yo ass in Milwaukee buck .. seriously
I don’t think that’s a admission to want to play for the Knicks, but would be cool if it was
I'm tired of all of this Giannis to the Knicks talk. I'm focused and committed to this team right now. We are one of the deepest teams and I'm looking forward to the second half of the season. Leon Rose was able to add talent without disrupting our core players. Let's see what this team can do. Also, Giannis has been having issues with his calf which is not good. The Knicks' organization needs to be careful. Nice background Troy.
This new update to the background is fire also great video as well now I know once he's a free agent he will come . That way they don't strip the team and have to give them anything to come to NY it's going down .
Well he is going to have to wait until the off season because the Knicks are going to the finals and going to win the NBA championship 🏆.. and right now we're jellin and he would mess up things if he were to be traded right now
If its not coming from KNICKS FANS TV….i treat it all as spam..
All you other channels be wrong so many times
So much hype over the summer with this. I’m over it
It ALL depends on if the Knicks bring home a chip and if they do Giannis will be looking for another team!!! Say something different!!
You read it the way you want to hear it
I can see why he would say that as a 16 -18 year old cause it is MSG the Mecca. Kobe was on the Lakers and LeBron was on the cavs. I'm not reading to much into it. Let's see if there are any other outlets saying Antetakoumpo said he wants to go to the Knicks.
Giannis remembers his interest in the Knicks again. If I recalled I said he would regret his amnesia when he won in the beginning of the season 😂😂😂.
Dope new setup!!
Hello l knicks fan l gree wiht you what you say this real trust my frien l Giannis hos to say l wuant be And knicks l gree wiht you what you say l knicks fan thank you very much guy bles.
How come you always seeing something different? I just saw where he said he’s now committed to the Bucks going forward from now on.
He sounds confused to me, he doesn't know what he want
Giannis always stated he was angry that the Knicks didn't draft him because he grew up a Knick fan. Makes sense since NYC has the largest Greek community in the United States and most of his family in America live in NYC and NJ. That's why Phil drafted his brother. Giannis showed up for his brother rookie Knick games when he was injured.
Didn't he do a documentary about all of this about 9 years ago?
That's All Clean Up Troy, he just cleaning house on his way out the door!
Dope new track
Tired of the Giannis talk
Im good on this type of talk we need to worry about the team we got now. At this point we're headed into the second part of this season. We need to get healthy and start working on playing better defense. Need to build better team chemistry. Let all this other bullshit play out the way it do in the off season.
I think you have you understand. He is being asked this by a reporter. He knows his words will go public. In saying that, I believe he is trying not to get blacklisted by the NBA for disrespecting the organization (the Bucks) he is with by saying I WANT TO GO TO THE KNICKS or SOME OTHER TEAM.
He's playing it down the middle and bring politically correct. But right after the Bucks' season is over, he'll probably state his position without equivocation.
It may not be the most honest statement, but it is undeniably a smart one.
Next summer he will be free agent
Man if we get Giannis! Man that would be crazy. Brunson would become a huge off ball threat. He would have a type of freedom he hasn't had since the mavs. Giannis would become number 1 in Jersey sales instantly lol.
It's NOT going to happen. I'm tired of this Giannis situation if he really wants to come this summer he has the leverage to get traded to the Knicks if NOT plz let's stop discussing this. I'm satisfied on what we have now. LET'SGOKNICKS
Fire setup bro!
Stop with the click bait nonsense, Giannis is a troll dude doesn’t want ny smoke.
Music to my ears yeaaa buddy .
I will see that story keep changing all the time
Giannis don’t understand this business I seen Westbrook harden and kd all leave hell kings trade boogie there no loyalty in NBA
please stop the Giannis to the New York Knicks and how much he loves to be in New York Knick, do us a favor, please Stop. “ dreams are free, Stop with the groupie B.S. “ we don’t want the Greek freak❗️❗️❗️ this is a whack and corny podcast
He's getting old though and the price is too high . Knicks have to make due with what they have. The Knicks have a solid team that if healthy could win the title 💪🏽 Let's go Knicks!
If the Knicks don't win the championship in June, Giannis will be a Knick before next season starts.
We don't need him we are ok
Him is too old
Honestly win are lose i don't think the Knicks will get Giannis and thats for the best really even though if we do win i see a trade happening anyway with KAT who as good as hes been has huge mental breakdowns on the court displayed by his offensive fouls and his lack of defensive discipline at a key defensive position i feel will eventually get him moved for a Banchero and Wagner or a Scottie Barnes or a player with more upside in his career at a cheaper price mostly due to Age because unless the cap increases dramatically next season it would make no sense to keep our free agents ie Mitchell Robinson and by the numbers hes been the better Center especially over this winning streak since he should remain a Knick as should Alvarado McBride Shamet and now Diarwa all looming Free Agents and where we will be picking think 20 – 30 in a very guard heavy draft so unless the next Mitchell Robinson Willis Reed Nikola Jokic are in this draft then i would say pick him because now if we do keep everyone intact KAT Mitch everyone we would still be missing either a Forward that can play everything or in my mind another Big that can defend rebound run the floor good with the ball scoring should be a good free throw shooter thats it just block steals rebounds good turnover ratio and free throws would trencend the Knicks going into the future how about you me even if we win im looking at KAT and possibility of OG trades with OG due to Injuries not play KAT doesn't defend the point of attack nor does he make the offense as good as Brunson and prefers 3pts over getting easier positioning in the paint due to his heavy legs and his lurching style of hustling
