Are people serious when saying trade Rolo to sign Noah? Noah is done as a starting center, let alone an impactful one. KP is not ready nor should he be a starting center. Noah to back up Rolo? Absolutely! Noah to replace Rolo? No friggin' way.

Noah might be the vet presence/locker room present that we need, ideally as a backup for Lopez while he builds his value back up.

I wouldn't mind him for a one year contract if we still have money left. Here's to hoping Noah signs for the hometown discount.

Knicks have a center, a backup center and a backup backup center. Don't need. Let Noah go title hunt somewhere for the vet min

Guard has to be the priority but if there is loot left after that I would love for him to be a Knick.

netw3rk is actually a great follow on twitter. He's a Knicks fan who used to write for Grantland. I wouldn't take anything he says that seriously on twitter. It was just a joke. Although I kind of agree with his sentiment.

Noah would be great in the event that we actually traded Rolo, but he would have to come cheap to make it worth while.

Noah spent most of his years contending with the Bulls. He's not going to want to finish it off coming to this outfit at a discount where there's no clear indication if we're competing or tanking and many of the fans are actually rooting for the latter.

To boot he's currently watching the organization dick around with Melo's twilight years. Tell me again why we'd even be anything close to an option to Noah again?
Those last 70 seconds, Randle in a nut shell.

Awful 2 for 1 3PT attempt when we are up 2
Doesn’t close out on Sabonis --> open 3
Takes another side step off balance 3

We got sucked into the Randle vortex where all good feelings go to die.

I know he's in the NBA media world. Forgot who it is specifically.

These dudes who don't watch the games are getting paid for hot takes that get them clicks. It's pathetic. The worst part is there is a huge part of this fan base that actually give credence to these opinions. These guys are morons. There are maybe 5-10 guys I've found who actually discuss the game in a way that you can apprecuate. They don't have to love the Knicks or Melo. But at least they'll discuss the basketball reasons instead of feeding the masses their garbage.

It's totally possible we replaced Calderon with Noah at PG last year, our pace would pick up and team assists would improve despite poor spacing. :P

So another Knick fan making our organization look bad again? What is with these self loathing Knicks fans?

HOW DO WE HAVE ENOUGH BIGS! I DONT GET IT!

Our backup big men right now are Kyle OQuinn, Kevin Seraphin, and Lou Amundson. Hold on, let me say that again. Our backup big men are Kyle OQuinn, Kevin Seraphin, and Lou Amundson.

We absolutely, 100%, need a COMPETITVE backup big man. If Noah is down with with playing in New York on a somewhat cheap contract and doesn't mind being a spark off the bench, then he's ours.

And fine, if you don't want Noah, that's fine. I get that he's a little older and has some injury concerns, but we absolutely need a REAL backup big man. Maybe Ian Mahinmi? Just please god no to Kyle OQuinn, Kevin Seraphin, or Lou Amundson. Please.

Id rather have Robin as the starter. Noah no doubt still thinks he can be a starter in this league so he isnt coming here anyway. If hes truly open to being a backup at a cheap price, im all for it. But thats highly doubtful.

Almost every team has cap space. Noah isn't coming here on a discount. It's not happening.
