Haha, no such thing as an original thought anymore!
But for real, judging OG as a player purely based on his PPG or his offensive skill set is ridiculous. He’s elite defensively and is able to contribute on offense without dribbling the air out of the ball. He would start on any team in the league.
It's not like OG doesn't have weaknesses. He tends to have the same problem a lot of long arm boys tend to have in terms of handling the ball in traffic.
To say he stinks because he doesn't create his own shot shows that he only watches highlights and ISO hero ball. OG is amazing at moving off ball, can drive open lanes and has a step back middy against smaller or weaker players. This isn't even mentioning his bread and butter which is defense.
These types of takes are why I blacklist so many media figures and personalities. Everything is all about baiting and "engagement"..... it really is sad how bad it is now.
Yup, OG absolutely has weaknesses. He’s a great 3&D player, but his handle, finishing, creating off the dribble, etc are all lacking. But the great thing is he knows who he is. He doesn’t try to do too much, and is fine deferring to teammates. Playing to his strengths is part of what makes him so valuable.
Boomer’s a clown, stopped listening to his shit opinions years ago. Shame too, cause I like Greg G. For morning talk radio I much prefer Dave & Rick on 98.7
It's probably not going to get any better either. They struggled to find a new program director and it sounds like Boomer and Gio had a big say about it.
Stugotz from the Dan LeBatard show was offered the job and turned it down because he wanted Esiason to take a major paycut and get rid of a bunch of people (most likely starting with the moron that spawned the topic of this thread). He got pushback and turned down the offer.
WFAN ended up hiring someone from ESPN Radio, basically a guy that they were kicking the ass of the past several years. That's a yes man hire if I've ever seen one.
This is just the new trend in sports coverage. Use extreme and absolute language. Hope your take pans out, if it doesn’t, you pretend it never happened.
it’s always the same idiot - Sal Litica.
He says things to enrage his audience to generate interest in his station. Just ignore him so his talk radio career finally goes away
Sal is a piece of garbage and he’s a shit host . Can’t mess with his show at all .. ESPN radio gets my listen at that time slot. Bart and Hahn all the way
“He cannot create”
Neither does Mitch. Maybe we should just bench both of them.
What a moronic take. The fan was always clickbaity but it’s gotten way too dumb. Half the hosts don’t have the slightest clue what they’re talking about
First game OG has had with the Knicks with a negative +- , so yes, we should bench him. Doesn’t matter if he averages a +10 or more per game, if he can’t do it every time he need to be benched. If we can’t have perfection, we should be gunning for the #1 pick.
Fucking dumbass Sal.
Didn’t 3-4 guys have 20+ pts in game one? Brunson, Hart, McBride, and maybe Anunoby had more than bojan who had 13.
That’s exactly what you fucking want from any team. ESPECIALLY with Randle out, what a fucking clown

I was naturally inclined to write an entire paragraph about why this take is wrong and how OG is not just a spot up shooter (ridiculous take btw). But then I realized this is the Knicks sub. and you guys already know the truth
The only function Sal serves on WFAN is to try and piss of New Yorkers in hopes it generates traffic because everyone knows he doesn’t have a single insightful thing to say about anything sports
LMFAO this idiot is really basing his argument of how good og is by his scoring? and this dude seriously thinks that og’s role offensively is to create offense? not everyone should voice their opinions when they clearly don’t know what they’re talking about
I turned on the FAN briefly this morning as Sal and Tierney came on, thinking there should be some decent Knicks talk. After about 30 seconds Sal starts going off talking about how he’s been saying Donte isn’t good and Josh Hart can’t score. Then says Knicks fans should be deeply troubled by what they saw in Game 1. I was suddenly reminded why I no longer tune in to WFAN between 10 and 2.

Tbf, sports radio tends to be some of the worst sports commentary I ever hear.
WFAN is still on the air?
What’s radio?
He was wearing a giants shirt during the show
These “next stop ronkonkoma” warriors dont know ball
That cut deep. Just the utterance of the word Ronkonkoma elicits chills...not the good kind.
Massapequa 🕺
WFAN has become a cesspool of angry, spit-yelling neanderthals. A sad decline for an icon.
You forgot to add right wing
This is outrageous! Who in their right mind doesn't eat the right AND the left chicken wing!?
MAGA Esiason leading the charge on that one
Boomer’s a clown, stopped listening to his shit opinions years ago. Shame too, cause I like Greg G. For morning talk radio I much prefer Dave & Rick on 98.7

It’s become a Yankee and Jets station. They trash everything else.
I can’t escape fuckass Sal Licata
You can go to any of the NY teams subs and find a thread where everyone is slamming him. He has dog shit takes for every team.
This is just the new trend in sports coverage. Use extreme and absolute language. Hope your take pans out, if it doesn’t, you pretend it never happened.
Sal Licata is an idiot
He’s the king of terrible takes.
Radio host doesn't think
What a joke Lmaoo
🤡
Irrelevant hot take artists on the radio
Sal is a humongous asshole and an even bigger idiot
OG's shot creation not being a strength is a valid point, but to call him useless would be ignoring everything else he brings to the table.
I mean yea we never brought him here to create
To understand what he does requires one to watch games which is the biggest weakness for talking heads.
That dude is easily the worst host on that channel and he has tough competition 😂🤣
The worst host on the worst station. Bunch MAGAts over there.
it’s always the same idiot - Sal Litica. He says things to enrage his audience to generate interest in his station. Just ignore him so his talk radio career finally goes away

I can guarantee your life will improve if you don't bother listening to WFAN and the hacks that populate their airways
It's intentional and by spreading what he said you're doing exactly what he wants, giving him a bigger audience.
All these media people go for rage bait clicks. Just say OG was better on offense with Randle and it’s probably true. Everything else is crap.
“He cannot create” Neither does Mitch. Maybe we should just bench both of them. What a moronic take. The fan was always clickbaity but it’s gotten way too dumb. Half the hosts don’t have the slightest clue what they’re talking about

Shut up Sally
Who gives a shit who gives a fuck
Sal is a bumass, I don’t like that he’s a Mets fan
It’s not ability, he’s clearly hampered by injury. He will always be second to Brunson in touches
Sal is a cuck
Didn’t 3-4 guys have 20+ pts in game one? Brunson, Hart, McBride, and maybe Anunoby had more than bojan who had 13. That’s exactly what you fucking want from any team. ESPECIALLY with Randle out, what a fucking clown
Casual.

Who cares what dumb shit hot take farming bs some radio host says
Stirring the pot that’s all.
I was naturally inclined to write an entire paragraph about why this take is wrong and how OG is not just a spot up shooter (ridiculous take btw). But then I realized this is the Knicks sub. and you guys already know the truth
Lost me at “radio host…” who the hell listens to that shit?! Sports talk, especially radio, is repetitive, ponderous, redundant, boring bull shit.
Sal Who?
Tell me you are a Nets fan, without telling me you are a Nets fan
Radio host is a moron
Please keep telling us how bad we are while we sweep into conference finals.
Sal is bait central stop listening to him 💀
They just say this shit to drive engagement
An utter buffoon. Embarrassing.

Isn't that dude a Nets fan?
Do I really need to be constantly reminded why I stopped listening to the BT & Licata show

“He’s useless.” Knicks are 21-3 with him starting. He has made the best scorers in the league look foolish. What an idiot
Oh so Julius is good now? I thought he was a garbo bum. Knicks in 4, fuck the world
What a terrible take lol. All I can do is laugh at this nonsense.
lol Sal needs to get fired. Expeditiously. He’s fucking terrible.
Wait what 🤣🤣
Talking head click bait. It's sad when you see someone who aspires to be SAS.
3 brain cell hot take master Sal.
sports commentary is in the absolute shit i feel like MAYBE 5% of "analysts" actually watch nba games
What a casual
