Nah I rather give that money to porzingis than someone like randle or portis, and for porzingis issue about hot at the start off the season and cold later on, we all know that porzingis has anemia and our beloved gm not only didn't give him any help and let alone load management him,and that show us how inept our management is, we run porzingis to the ground, asking someone with anemia to do everything on offence and at the same time asking him to play dpoy level defence every night is like asking someone to digging they on grave.
Nobody is saying Porzingis isn't better than Randle or Portis or Smith. I'm saying he has issues and I'm glad he's not signed to a major contract here. If they signed R, P or S long term I'd be mad too. If you lock up $30 mill in cap long term and it goes south you are freaking done.
Jesus H. why do people have such a hard time understanding Porzingis has some big red flags, as talented as he is. One of the red flags being he's not the shooter as has been advertised. He sucks at rebounding. He has anemia which is going to be a life long problem and his tiredness from that leads to injuries later in the season. He's also a diva who's defied management and went out of his way to embarrass a coach. Yeah, **** that guy. Stop pining for your lost love the sex was never that good anyway.
Nobody is saying the Knicks had to sign him to $30 million. But making the trade for nothing when they could just wait and see if they could get something made all the sense in the world. BUT they took it up the poop highway on the trade because they were day dreaming about KD and Kyrie. They got taken for fools for starphucking.
1) KP wasn't going to play last year, he, the Knicks and the Mavs were all aligned on that.
2) KP was signing a deal no matter what, it could have been a sign and trade at end of season ala Brogdon.
3) At that point they'd know we weren't getting Zion.
4) At that point it'd be clear KD was cooked (though those morons would still probably have blown their loads over signing a to be 32 year old with the worst injury in basketball). Even better that neither of the stars they'd been jerking it over were coming.
5) Nobody was coming ever. Especially after no Zion and no 22 year old All-Star top 3 rim protector.
So nothing changes except you have more information to make a decision on. But again this front office is run by fools, amateurs and people whose resumes are just pure failure. This is business decision making 101, make the decision when you have the most information if all other things are equal.
The Mavs would make the same trade, they'd take on KPs max deal or upon seeing DSJ is trash or injury riddled and that nobody was coming in free agency you just keep the asset longer. Maybe you flip KP for a high draft pick to a team like Atlanta instead of the trash we got from the Mavs.
