00:00Mitchell Robinson signs a three-year deal with the Celtics just so we can be clear here the Knicks
00:04could not have offered this contract to Mitchell Robinson without exceeding the second apron there
00:10was no way they could have done that and listen it's does this sting a little bit because it's
00:14the Celtics well that's the thing yeah it's like I've seen several Knicks fans several maybe more
00:20say anybody but that team but I also if I'm Mitchell Robinson I'm like man I might have
00:28a chance to start I'm going to be on the team that that wants to be a contender uh this
00:32is more
00:33money evidently than he would have gotten anywhere else this is a business it's a business we talk
00:38about the business on both sides I am never going to fault the players for getting their bag and the
00:44limited shelf life that they have and so he did he wasn't going to take a significant pay cut Landry
00:49Shamit who had non-guaranteed deals the last couple of years and had some injury history with his
00:54shoulder yes he got a little bump but if you're going to ask Mitchell Robinson let's say to go
00:58from 15 to 9 no and none of y'all would have done that either like come on nope to
01:05be to be the
01:06backup again right instead of backing up Karl-Anthony Towns where you're like no doubt the number two
01:11like he's going to have more opportunities here but I think Mitchell Robinson definitely makes them
01:16better and now the Knicks have to sort of scramble to figure out this backup center uh position but but
01:21not scramble because they've been preparing for this like they've they've probably known that Mitchell
01:26Robinson wasn't gonna be back but yeah we gotta we gotta salute Mitchell Robinson salute to Mitchell
01:30Robinson a great Nick career it's a loss it is a big loss in Mitchell Robinson what he brings to
01:38the table
01:38but there are options here
01:40you
