ingram is also an often injured player. rather aim for more durable targets

[Fury]

I think we're going to get Bridges but I also think it's possible Randle gets traded. I hope not, and we're able to have both.

I don't see the fit with Ingram (especially with us bringing back OG) unless you are moving Randle and at that point I think Randle does more for this team than Ingram would.

I don't know if they plan on movin on from Randle or not down the road but an Ingram move wouldn't make sense to me or the fit.

[WargamesX]

I still think the most reasonable off-season is resign IHart and OG, extend Brunson and Randle, Trade for Mikal, sign a waived CP3, draft an extra center or PF/Center combo.

Nothing crazy, but when added together all great steps toward becoming a better team.

I think this team needs to figure out how to prevent the defense from falling off a cliff when OG misses games. It's like as soon as he goes out we can't keep anyone in front of us.

While I think Bridges is a pretty ideal and seamless fit from a ton of different perspectives, I just don't see Brooklyn actively helping us out. Especially when the demand for Bridges would seemingly be pretty high. It's not a situation where we can make ourselves one of the only true suitors for his services...

For example, if the Cavs offer Garland for Bridges how exactly do we go beat that? Maybe in a scenario where we can offer more picks but even though Tsai has positioned publicly that he's ok with a rebuild, they don't have control of their own picks going forward... Tanking and asset collection just doesn't make a ton of sense for them right now which is probably what our packages lend themselves to doing.

I don't think trading Julius for Mikal would be smart either.

[DaGawd]

randle for mikal would be a disaster.. you want to add mikal to the current crop but subtract a huge piece for him

[sol537]

Bogs + McBride + two or three 1st rounders for Mikal. It's a pretty big offer for a guy who doesn't want to be there.

I'd put OG and Mitch into Yoga + Swimming programs all off-season to improve their durability.

So, so far, Ingram is not good on defense and people do not want.

Bridges people like, but the consensus is he won't be made available by Brooklyn, to the Knicks.

I'd say it's another year before Booker becomes available.


Apparently, the Knicks accumulated draft picks for no reason, since I'm not sure who's left that's an upgrade, that any team would realistically trade.

Like, Anthony Edwards would be nice, but he's not leaving Minny.


Time to explore the Tari Eason's of the world.

We could do what we've been doing and what Dallas did. Just find guys who are undervalued and fit.

We been doing that and that’s Mikal.

I know I said we've been doing that.

But Mikal isn't that anymore. He will cost a lot.

Spend less, get Eason.

I'm out on the stars guessing game. There's no fit with anyone available.

[thebuzzardman]

Eason, Murphy III, Herb Jones, Derrick Jones....

[robillionaire]

I agree, if I’m trading for mikal I’m going bojan McBride and draft picks, not trading Randle. Randle only goes out for a star not for another role player

Brunson
Mikal
OG
Randle
Ihart or Mitch

Donte 6th man of the year
Hart comes off the bench

there would still be a couple holes like backup PG/PF, could draft some, bring Rokas, keep precious, etc

All those are great choices but there teams know they are good. We need some good ole insider trading when it comes to pulling our next trade.

Mikal and Caruso

They would be great I just don't see the Nets doing business with us.

Name the last team that won a championship where their #2 offensive option was a 3 point shooting big man that did NOT have a good post-up game. If you're a 3 point shooting big man that can't move well laterally on defense (like KAT), you have to be able to get your pound of flesh by posting and PUNISHING a smaller player guarding you. The Knicks have seen this before (remember when the Bulls would play Pippen on Oakley - because Oakley had no post game - and it enable Pippen to leak out on fast breaks, play centerfield on D, etc). If you're a big man, play like a BIG man.
