That said, I'd rather stay the course with the rebuild instead on the star feeding frenzy happening. I want to be a top 4 seed consistently, not battling for 7 or 8

Prepared for it to take 3-4 years?


buddy as long as we do it the right way and not continue the last 20. I started as a Knicks fan in 94 at 10 years old. I've seen the glory and the many many many mistakes. This team isnt ready for Beal yet

Think of Lavar as a Checks and balances type tool for Dolan’s nonsense . Say what you want but Lavar spoke out on Magic Johnson and the Lakers when they had problems. He caught a lot of heat and ire fromthe media. Only to be proven right when magic stepped down. Lavar Shutting up dolan alone would be worth bringing Lonzo into town

That's cool but we don't need this guy putting it out there publicly like that.


Let’s be honest they asked to him to dial it back after signing LeBron. For most part he did you barely heard from him compared to his prior year. Lonzo dropped BBB and is more his own man these days. I would rather gamble on him hen gamble on Westbrook. At least Lonzo can make people around him better

I'm more or less ok with the KD, Kyrie decisions (I would've been waaaay more disappointed had KD been healthy) but what bugs me is that DeAndre told them Brooklyn would be the better option. What didn't he like about the Knicks?

Knox, Frank, Trier, 2020 1st, 2021 Mavs 1st, 2023 Mavs 1st. Who says no?

DSJ
Beal
RJ
Randle
Mitch

that would be a nice young starting 5 that can grow together and IMO make the playoffs, especially in a weak East


Since when does Bradley Beal demand a AD kind of haul? He is a Robin not a Batman.

I'm thinking he thought he wasn't getting enough burn. I read somewhere that he was upset that the young guys got so much PT.

Agreed, he might be underrated but In my opinion that's on him and his sometimes passive behavior on the court.

its still gonna take that kind of deal (plus salary fillers) to acquire him. plus, league opinion on Knicks prospects aren't very high. in this scenario, at least get to keep Mitch, RJ, and DSJ who are arguably the young players w/ the most potential on the team
