      IQ (Immanuel Quickley) is back! I love his signature skipping celebration for its uniqueness and playfulness

        Knicks fan here, I miss IQ and his infectious smile when he was playing well. And Barrett too. Two excellent young players and young men.

        But I can’t complain since we got OG, who’s an absolute stud, and Precious has also been a really useful bench piece for us.

        The rare trade where everybody won, imo.

          I like IQ’s on-court celebrations, like skipping. Or binoculars after dropping a dime. He’s not doing it to anyone, like ‘too small’, but just being joyous. RJ’s great - I know him from Team Canada.

          OG was my favourite. It’s nice to see him doing well, and being recognized, in NYC. Precious too. He seems to be playing more within his game and shining brighter now.

          It qualifies as a mutual win; you’re totally right. I want to see how Quickley looks. Right now, I think the Knicks fared a little better, but if Quickley plays like a top 20 point guard I’d re-evaluate

      I love the way Raptors’ TV pbp announcer Matt Devlin says “three” when a player on the Raptors makes one. It’s really “throat-y” lol but it hits
