Only a few wanted Monk. A lot of people feel we didn't get enough for Willy and/or didn't properly raise his value, even though he's a no defense playing center who can't shoot in today's modern NBA. It's a fine haul, not great, not bad. It's a minor move being portrayed as a travesty.


He was already knocking down the corner 3 at the end of his rookie year. FOH with he cant shoot.



He hit 4 threes his entire rookie season...4.

4/15 for the season.

He hit 1 three after January 7th. So I'm not sure which Hernangomez you're talking about, but it wasn't Willy. Stop making things up.

Then they don't play him all year, and move him for peanuts when his value is at an all time low. They should have moved O'Quinn, who has value, and showcased Hernangomez for the rest of this year, and traded him in the offseason. Lmfao at this **** franchise. We're always going to suck. KP will be gone as soon as he can get out of this circus.

Joke of a trade.... can’t wait until Willy puts up 20 and 10 on the Knicks and the Hornets make the playoffs.

Having Kinglee in your corner isn't the best for your argument.



I can disagree with 99% of a person's opinion and agree with him on this. Others agree with me. This isn't a travesty. 30+ pages for WHG is astonishing to me.

SHowcasing willy or not you weren't getting a 1st rounder for him. He is what he is.... a low ceiling bench big. He has too many flaws right now to project him to be anything else than that...


I never said I expected a first. Hell, I wouldn't have traded him at all.


That's fine but we have to see the next moves after this trade before we judge it. All-Rookie teams mean nothing to me. Actually watching WHG tells me he destined to be a bench big. Getting 2 2nds and another young player to me seems like at least a non-loss on that deal (in today's market) regardless of whether we played him or not.

Only reason I thought this was because it was reported yesterday that we were talking to Charlotte about Monk. If that's never reported I wouldn't have assumed it was for him

Exactly, i've come the realization that knick players become overvalued here. I mean, the guy had splinters on his a** due to him sitting on the bench so damn long. He's a decent player, that ceiling is a poor mans Marc Gasol

We're resigning KOQ now. After we get rid of Noah, the center position will be manned by Enes and KOQ. :D
