I see a scenario 76ers get top pick and possibly trade the Knicks for their pick with hardaway and maybe gallo for the first pick =( They keep embied they get Russell and they also have Noel that's a formitable top three for years to comes if they all pan right also they will have so many draft picks and other young prospects. I truly hope this isn't correct but I have predicted many things before like trades and injuries look at my Twitter.

In the scenario you laid out, I see Philly getting better offers for that than what we can come up with.

And nah, we got this. Stop inviting negative vibes. If you are this 'powerful', then hope we get the first pick instead. The actual lottery process should start anytime soon.

Stfu.

The sixers have no stability. They just keep trading all their players away. I'm pretty sure they just want every single draft pick for the 2050 NBA draft..

This is quite literally the biggest moment our franchise has had since the original Melo trade. And he's not willing to face the music in a no-lose situation? Does he realize how important this offseason and draft class is for this franchise?

Just show up, shut up, and acknowledge what we all know-- 1 summer will define his entire knicks legacy as a president.

TBH, I think Phil would rather go to bed early

PJ slowly turning into Donnie?

"It’s a system that works. If you don’t believe it then say it to Phil Jackson’s rings," Towns told ESPN New York on Tuesday afternoon while signing autographs at Lids in Manhattan.

I'd be in a state of euphoria if we get Russell
I'd be happy with Towns
I'd be content with OK4...we just better build the right team around him
I'd be intrigued by Mudiay
I'd be like "typical Knicks" with anyone else

Hell ya

Has a guy ever begged so much for a team to draft him like Towns with the Knicks? Will he even work out for any other team? Everyone said the Knicks are that ugly, acne faced girl during the season, but all these top picks want to take us to prom.

that part of the story broke my heart. i hope he gets to be at the garden 41+ times per season. No fewer than 49 times at least once, if you catch my drift.

As long as our last game in the playoffs is a W, fine with me.

there you go. you feel me.

This has been really good press. I've been surprised by it.

I really really want to come out of the top 5 with one of
Towns
Winslow
Okafor
Russell
Mudiay
Johnson
WCS*
Hezonja

* I can't turn down WCS and the intensity he brings on defense and crashing the boards. Think 7ft Rodman/Artest.

Towns has been quoted several times saying while he grew up as a Knicks fan and it would be nice to play here, his dream is to just play in the league. Therefore, I believe he'll workout for any team with a top 2 pick. Make of that what you will...

it's probably that minnesota is also ugly and acne faced but also morbidly obese.

The bolded four have lower upsides than the other 5. And you forgot Porzingis, who I rate as having a higher upside than the bolded four as well.

I wanted to post D'Angelo pics to bring us luck but then I decided against it. I dont want to be a selfish lad. I prefer Russ for my personal tastes mainly. I am sure most of the people will prefer Towns or Okafor so I should think for all the Knick fans, not just for myself. With this new found belief, I am rooting for the top pick and top pick only. I can get back to individuals when we learn our order in draft.

GO NY GO NY GOOO Come on Milllllzzzyyyy

He was playing it nice for the camera when he said that. Everyday I hear bout a quote from Towns and other top prospects regarding the Knicks. I haven't heard one thing about Minnesota, Philly, Sacramento, Orlando etc. The Knicks are looking real sexy right now
