Lol

Yeah, I mean Schroder isn’t one of my top options but he is still definitely a big upgrade

He did average 17.7 PPG 8 APG on 46/40/86 splits without lebron. So there’s some potential as him as a lead guard

Would you even say he would become the best Dennis to ever play for the Knicks?

People still don't get it. It wasn't to create room for FA.
It was to create a cost free asset that can be put into a trade either this year or next year.
Once you pick, a) The player is defined and the other team that will receive the pick can't pick their own guy and b) The asset how has a cap hit, not matter how small. Not for the KNICKS but for the other team.


Yes, this. I thought we got terrible value on every trade we made but I also understand that the long game is to acquire picks because they are worth more than players in blockbuster deals. And I also agree with that plan… if that Charlotte pick is packaged for Dame I won’t even remember the original trade on draft night.

I only come here for draft, FA and trade deadline and I can’t handle it… how have you been doing this for damn near two decades?! Props old timer, props

Don’t really need the Lakers numbers in a small sample size as we have seen him on different teams in much bigger sample size. We know who he is as a player at this point and it really depends on the contract. If it’s market value for like 2 or 3 years it’s not bad and we can move him if we have to

I would say he would be our best international point guard 8-)

At this point I'm okay with just bringing Rose, Bullock, Burks, Noel, Taj back on one year deals. Just run it back.

Zzz Dennis Shroeder and Oubre. I get why they might be good, cause they performed 2 years ago but they better be taking a discount.

I think we are the only team seriously going after him, so hopefully we aren’t bidding against ourselves

Deuce McBride already serves that purpose and doesn't destroy our cap.


Unproven rookie

You know better


Yeah we are just gonna roll into next season telling Thibs to start a second round draft pick at PG after we cleared up 60M in cap space for no reason

Who plays PG?
It's not going to be Vildoza + McBride.
I guess there could be a vet stop gap

So, Knicks are going to entrust PG to a 6'2" combo guard who is a rookie?

Sounds like a recipe for success.

We can add them to #3 option Randle and #4 option RJ. Blueprint.

Then don't sell the fans a dream you can't deliver. If we are shopping at target so be it. But don't sell us this CAA direction that we are shopping on Saks 5th.

If your goal is to just maintain playoff basketball with zero upside I can't be down with that.

It's a star driven league. Either get me a star or find the best avenue to do it. Again Steve Mills could do this. He was just fired for this 2 years ago.
