I was jumping for joy after I heard that the Knicks got KAT. I used to bet and watched a lot of Wolves games so I saw lot of his games. He is even better than I thought, great fit for the Knicks and is having his best season of his career. He is heading to a hall of fame career at the end of his career.

KAT proves that platform matters...the brighter lights of MSG allow this man to shine on the biggest stage and more of the world to see the player and man he is. Salute & Peace. LGK
@@nathanlindahl8336Bro they wasn’t talking about KAT when he was in Minnesota, now that he’s in NYC his career is revived. And you can see he’s happier playing for a big market than a small market like Minnesota.
@alreadycertifiedt.v. you do know he grew up a knicks fan. His mom worked at MSG & he's from NJ 15m away. Yall mfkas just like to get on the net & make jokes
As soon as they traded him, I knew it was going to go bad for the wolves. He literally trained harder than he ever had during the off season working on his game and they were like "He's doing pretty well this off season...let's trade him" lol
@TheBrotherHoodSports: Very true, it’s crazy that people got on KAT for that because Jimmy has an attitude about how everyone should be. KAT & Ant meshed well together, now he’s on the Knicks with a strong leadership around him as well & thriving.
I was hating on the KAT trade from my Knicks… can’t front….. it was based solely on him not being assertive enough for me in the post… and lightweight he still isn’t….but he’s been playing well.. we need that in the playoffs
but he a man now. he is all talk, give it time before Knicks fans turn. They have a game clincher against a terrible Raptors team and now its all celebrations and lights. Same story in Minny.
@@clutchbeyersbro KAT is playing like an MVP candidate, 25 and 13 on 53 percent shooting and 45 percent from 3, stop hating, Minnesota got bamboozled lol.
@@jaydot4956 short-term maybe, but not long term. He isn't worth his contract, you will find out in due time. He chokes when it matters. Derreck effin Jones Jr murdered him in WCF. All you need to know
The two newest Knicks that have definitely grown on me are Cam Payne and KAT. Cam, who was a major pest against us in last season's playoffs with Philly, has now proven to be a valuable player off the bench that fits our system. And KAT, who was viewed as just a stretch 4, is having arguably his best season ever as a pro (with career numbers in points and rebounds), is now in the league's MVP conversation. Definitely playing like he's more 'liberated' since he's back home. Can't wait 'til the playoffs! (still miss Dante' though, ngl).
I love to see his personal success and happiness. I'm happy for the Knicks fan base y'all deserve, but...... Nothing is proven until the playoffs. Keep that same energy IF Towns plays bad, or IF Knicks don't play well.
As boneheaded as this trade was, I'm at least glad the Wolves traded him to the team that he grew up being a fan of and his parents love. We miss you in MN KAT!
It must feel crazy being a Knick and knowing that MSG is your home. Yes the Celtics and Lakers have history and victory on their courts, but MSG is on another level.
Minnesota was where he got drafted, it’s understandable as he spent his whole adult life there. He did grow up in NJ though, so playing for The Knicks is the closest thing to playing in his home area now. Probably makes it easier to embrace, also the vibes on the Knicks are great with this core.
He has always been a comedian. That's part of the reason people called him soft. Always joking and not being serious. but as KAT said, he was a boy and now he is a man.
See he KAT said himself that he wouldn't have ever grew past the birds nest he had to get out of the nest to go from a BOY TO A MAN. He needed that PUSHING because he was complacent with the Timberwolves.
It's so sad that when a player is traded yall think that they was done wrong. What you fail to realize is that CONTRACTS has an expiration date and they could be let go or renew! KAT was a contract holder for a decade. IT WAS JUST TIME TO LEAVE!!!! Plus THATS BUSINESS NOTHING PERSONAL!
@totarambudhoo9788 do you know he lost his mom during those 9 seasons? Why do we think giving millions to a 19yr old makes them a man? Most would crumble now with that type of money let alone for 9yrs. I think it's safe to say if think logically instead of emotionally that whatever he went through has prepared him for the bright lights of NY had he not he would not be as confident to do what he's doing now. Smh
@totarambudhoo9788 REAL recognize REAL only a real MAN would know that. I'm just being objective understanding that fans judge these young men very differently because of the profession they choose & expect the maturity to match. That's not reality
I am so happy for KAT; he looks so happy away from this ungrateful and foolish Minnesota sports personality. How can a team in their right mind build their team around Rudy Gobert and trade KAT? We, the Minnesota sports fans, are cursed. KAT is a walking 25 points 12 rebounds guy, a superstar
In 3 months you reflect and mature, especially when you leave the clutches of a team and fans who do not give you the value you deserve and treat you like a child, even if you do things right. It's good that Kat left Minnesota, a team that they hate.
Yes, but he grew in game-playing mentality after leaving the clutches of a team he hated like Minnesota. But then Edwards left, the Minnesota fans and team tired the players, they took away their love for the game.

People are fake, they just hated on him because Jimmy Butler called him soft.
Knicks just cool baby 😎
He’s having a career high in rebounds & 3pt percentage for one of the biggest teams market wise.

Wow man that's soo funny, never heard this joke before.
You guys need new jokes & to stop focusing so much on dudes voice.
He's fkn Jordan woods stop

True however had he had a dream scenario I'm sure it would be playing for the team he grew up watching & a team his mom loved
That's dope. Shout out to St Joes of Metuchen. Number 1 and 2 of all time from the their school on Prime time. #Jersey

Why tf they trade him when they finally do something in the playoffs?

Get your eyes checked

Right, he was a boy then but a man now. He use his grown man voice now. At times, his feminine or boy voice sneak in though.
Na men. Let’s wait and see his performance in the playoffs

I also think he meant he's gone through growing pains in Minnesota even playing under Thibs in Minnesota. Smh
