No way. Once the talk picks up we'll blow through 100 pages in no time. We're hitting at least 12 before the trade happens.


OK but if Im right you have to broadcast on your no blood no foul podcast :D

Even the Magic have more playoff appearances then the Knicks.

Jazz were a decent team, but fell short. The Melo Knicks were ok, but also pretty mediocre in general. True, better then most Knicks teams but ultimately I want to see us at least attempt to build a real contender and not aim for mediocrity. Maybe thats asking for too much.

The Knicks had a window for championship contention but they botched the execution in crunch time.

The 2012-13 Knicks laid the foundation - it just took the Knicks a couple of yours to build some depth after the trade. The Knicks trade for Lowry instead of Bargnani and we could be having a completely different conversation today.


There was a series of bad decisions following the Melo trade that totally locked them into hell. They could have had CP3 they took Chandler and re upped Billups. Amesty Billups instead of Amar'e. Bargs trade. No Lowry trade. It was endless mistake after endless mistake his entire time here. It ended in a flurry of more mistakes.

This DM trade cannot be handled the same way. It's already on shaky ground going forward. Who's the next star? Do we have the assets left to get that player? When is that player going to turn up?

Fun times.

If Ainge was a real estate agent, he would list a 200k valued home for $1mil lol Then he would stir up a bidding war and sell it for 1.5 mil

True, they could have def built a better team around Melo and they had a few ways to get to contender status. There was a slim window and they botched it.

Right now, I think either way its going to be really tough for the Knicks to get to the next level without a lot of luck anyway. If we don't trade for Mitchell, there really is not much of a window yet.

If we do trade for Mitchell, we will probably be closer but probably have to wait at least a few years to add the necessary pieces. Just depends what we have left. The team as is really isn't a great fit for Mitchell so there would be a lot of work to do. Mitchell would not doubt bring more excitement. If we make the deal just hope they do a better job of building around him.

I don't believe none of these rumors they're all bs...

Wtf does that even mean "NOW" the Jazz are interested in RJ as if they weren't before? **** don't even make sense. I hate this bs, **** ainge call this **** bluff already. He can't keep spida on the roster and be one of the worst lottery teams.

Then he’d wake up, only to realize that he needs more than 1 team to create a bidding war.

Maybe.
Who knows.
None of us.
None of the reporters, so called.
Certainly no one GreenArrow quotes from Twitter
Absolutely not Robert Randolph


Pretty sure I'd rather lose RJ than Obi. Especially considering contract and positions.

Damn, we can't even get Westbrook for Randle. Knicks are pretty much doomed as long as they have Randle.
