This off-season is pissing me off 

Post#1 » by Piston Pete » Sat Nov 21, 2020 1:10 am

Should have been building around our young core: Sekou, Wood, Svi.


Instead, we seem to be building around Blake and DRose.


Every time I watch Wood making plays somewhere else while watching guys like Okafor, Plumlee, and Ariza stinking it up on a nightly basis will be hella infuriating.

Should be going with a youth movement.

Instead, we’re throwing bags of cash at two backup-caliber C’s straigh out of the free agency gate when we don’t need more C’s.

Guys we just drafted (Stewart, Bey, and Lee) are buried on the depth charts already and likely won’t play 100 minutes for us COMBINED this season.

This team’s “direction” has been questionable for the last 10 years.....but this off-season takes the cake. Total failure. We can only hope Hayes turns out to be decent....

It's the NY Knicks approach -- tanking by loading up on mediocre big men

Looks like its gonna get ugly
In a no-win argument, the first poster to Let It Go will at least retain some peace of mind

I was about to say did Gores sell to Dolan bra cause I’m starting to feel what it is like to be a Knick fan.

Nah, this off-season is straight garbage.
