Around the NBA - Curse all of the other teams here

It's like how good of a defender do you expect a guy his size to be? I can remember off the top of my head one player in the years I've been watching the game who could make a difference on that side of the ball who was a smaller player. I'll give anyone a $1 if they can guess.

You forget Rondo my g?
CP3

really like John Collins. he's everything I wanted Obi to be (and only 6 months older)

I don't know what Obi or Mitch may become, but I'd trade one of them for Collins. I think Atlanta would consider it because of their locker room situation, even though they're probably better off with him.

this **** gallinari bum

Why are people mad a team above Knicks in playoff race lost?

Yall know what Knicks actually need deep down stop fronting

I have a question.. what is the #1 skill in the NBA right now?

Being able to go wherever you want on court, easily

If you want LaVine you absolutely have to give up 2 Unprotected First Round Picks.

PPG: 28.2
RPG: 5.3
APG: 5.3

on 52/42/87 Splits. He’s 25.

While the Bulls cannot afford to lose him for nothing, their best offer from across the league is not going to be a 1st + Kevin Knox and a 2nd for example. It’s just not realistic.

You can play hardball with Chicago and keep an offer low. But in all likelihood the Knicks don’t acquire LaVine in that scenario which has an impact on signing him as a FA. Zach LaVine would be another in a laundry list of people who use the Knicks to increase their offer from another team.

If the Knicks truly believe that IQ-RJ-LaVine-Randle-Mitch has be the foundation of a young team (average age 22.8) that plays both ends of the floor then they will do everything they can to get him (within reason).

He’s too good to make a reasonable offer for. Jrue Holiday was 2 good players, 3 picks, and two draft swaps.

That’s the level the Knicks would have to send the Bulls. So probably our 2021 pick, the Two Mavs pick, probably Obi and a vet, and or maybe some pick swaps and possibly our own 2023 pick as well.

..... We did everythibg right this past off season aside from resign Elfraud. Please just continue to stay out of our own way and do things right. Don't gut the whole **** team... again and damage our future... again.

We're so damn close to being in the conversation of having a promising future and being not only a respectable gritty team but an attractive destination. What a difference a real coach makes. As much as Thibs rotations and minutes make u question everything sometimes.

My MAX would be 2 Firsts. I just wouldn’t do 3 Firsts (that’s my personal example of within reason).

I’m not going to pretend that LaVine is some absolute superstar. Having said that, he’s entering his prime and has proven to be not only one of the best scorers in the league but one of the best shooters.

His 52-42-87 to me is not a fluke. This is the same guy that posted 45-38-80 last year and previously shot over 39% from 3PT in the prior 2 years.

I believe the same thing that Sham says often. That even though we have been one of the most embarrassing teams of the last 20 years there is only 3-4 players that this board would trade for.

I look at acquiring LaVine as a step in the right direction. We get a player in his prime, an ELITE shooter, who would be added to one of the worst shooting teams in the NBA in the Knicks. Furthermore, you get a guy who can get a bucket in the last 5min of the 4th Q.

Having another player that can take some pressure off RJ and Randle and even IQ at times would be a good thing.

At the end of the day I want to be a team that makes strides every year.

That and the fact that I want NOTHING to do with Oladipo. That dude is a terrible shooter and is ridiculously inefficient. Other than 2017 he’s proven to be unreliable, overrated and not a difference maker.

If we can’t get LaVine I would throw Joe Harris money at Trent Jr.

There is more than one way to skin a cat.

[knickstape4ever]

Semi Ojeleye would be a nice FA addition. plays good defense and can knock down the corner 3

[Capn'O]

It seems the Heat are good again. And the Raptors.

[knickstape4ever]

Woodard looking solid in the GLeague

couldn't have drafted him at 33?

[Guano]

The C's really didn't deserve Payton Pritchard.
