Only reason I thought that was because it was reported yesterday that we had been talking to Charlotte about him

No.


If you think this is a good trade then more power to you.

Here's a news flash, though: Monk sucks and so does this trade

You took a 2nd rounder and developed him into a player, something worth more than a 2nd now - a late first or another young player. Instead you trade him for two more 2nds so you can draft another Cleanthony Early and Slavko Vranes. Do you know how difficult it is to find a player in the 2nd round and have him become valuable? This is an awful trade in all aspects. We got ZERO return on a prospect we developed.

He wasn't opting out. I just hope they don't give him a long term extension. He should have some decent value next year as an expiring contract.

Hate SAS but he's right. In terms of Ws and Ls, KP has had no impact.

This is type of trade you make to get a malcontent off the team. You're better off playing Willy the rest of the season and trading him at the Draft. This is one of the worst trades I've ever seen.

I think you're a littler overreacting here. I don't like this deal, but this is not a fleecing. that 2nd rounders can be pretty decent. of course if we dealt him in the offseaon we could've gotten a midfirst.

I figured something like this was the best we could do but that was why I was against trading him. Now I gotta pray that this is step one to a flurry of moves that will add up when it's all said and done...in short, I doubt that.

Really hard to imagine we couldn't get a better player or deal for Willy. I would have moved KOQ first. We got older.

Our only hope is we are using the picks in a larger deal. But knowing our team, it is just hope.

NYKnicksFTW wrote:There's absolutely no defending this deal. Even if you think Hernangomez is ****, he still was an all-Rookie last year AND he's on a bargain deal. They just GAVE him away. Second rounders mean ****. Even high second rounders. Look at Diamond Stone and Stephen Zimmerman. They were waived not even a year after they were taken with high second round picks. Teams pray that second-round picks become first-team All-Rookies, as Hernangomez did last season.

This is wasting an asset, which the Knicks are pros at.



What is your point about those second rounders who were waived? What about Draymond, Jokic, Whiteside, Parsons, Crowder, Middleton, Brogdon, Crabbe, Clarkson, Deandre, Powell, Isaiah?
