We'd have to expect Randle is part of any deal to acquire KAT though

It would make our offense way more efficient.

They both are super suspect playoff performers and KATs contract means he would have to be the legit #2 behind Brunson.

I would be on the fence. It really depends on what else we would have to give up alongside Randle.

i hate that we have such a hard on for kat man.. i mean i acknowledge he’s probably a much better fit with brunson than randle is but i just don’t see the championship caliber intangibles.. much rather go after a more sure fire 1a type sidekick
our FO knows more than us but what if that player just isn't out there?

I mean name the 1a that are still in there prime and available? No one...maybe giannis in a year but that would be putting all your eggs in one basket

I think the KAT stuff is bit overblown and lazy journalism, the cap conscious Knicks blowing their flexibility and bloating their cap on KAT doesn’t seem to make sense when you look at how this team has operated, you make a deal for KAT you essentially committing that Brunson and KAT is your one two punch, and the rest of the roster is set.

With the 2nd apron your team building has to be more deliberate and delicate. If Minny traded Towns it would be for that very reason, why would Knicks want to put themselves in that same position.

Doesn’t add up.

Why attach any picks for KAT. If Minny wants to trade him, it is because of a salary dump. What other team will want KAT and is willing to give up an ALL-Star, all-NBA player like Randle plus picks.

Okay... so Leon and his crew is gonna go up to Thibs and say.. "Are you okay with KAT or not?!" Thibs is so stubborn, you need to ask him this very question.

If he's not okay, lets just move on

We probably already have...but it gets clicks to pretend otherwise.
