Nah, trade the pick for Kyrie and give the man his super max. Trade Frank, too. We NEED Kyrie.

A KP, Doncic, Frank, Willy, Timmy core is stinky poo poo. Totally boring. I would much rather spend most of the Knicks' money and assets on Kyrie who carried LeBron to a title with his sick crossover.

Keep KP in NY by surrounding him without REAL players who know how to win championships!!!!

Porter is going 1 even if Bagley reclassifies.

The Knicks should trade Frank and Willy to the Suns for their first round pick lol. The Knicks should do everything they can to tank this upcoming season to get a top 2 pick.

Only way we're bad enough to get Porter is if KP doesn't play at all this year
BaF Lakers:

Darius Garland/Cory Joseph
Klay Thompson/Shaedon Sharpe
Keldon Johnson/De'Andre Hunter
Evan Mobley/Tari Eason
Nic Claxton/Draymond Green

Bench: Leonard Miller, Jett Howard, Markquis Nowell, Kennedy Chandler, Day'Ron Sharpe

He needs to work on his handles, especially if he wants to play the SF position in the NBA. Will get easily stripped by serious defenders.

Wingspan also seems short relative to his height, which will limit his advantages if put at the PF position.

i'd rather he make the third season jump and make the all star team then keep perpetuating a losing culture for the currency of hope.

people need to detach themselves from prospects like donic and porter because they are pipe dreams we will not be in the position to draft. focus on possibly landing a prospect like bonga or other mid-late tier lottery prospects.

We need to expand our international squad outta Europe. Next spot: Japan :lol: .

I'm definitely gonna keep an eye on Rui Hachimura, he should get some good run at Gonzaga this year. Dropped 20/11 at U19's. Poor mans Jabari?



That dime at 1:30 :o .

Knicks fans do the same **** every year. beg for what they can't have, then cry when they dont get it. I mean you got cats saying if there is a year for KP to get injured it I want it to happen this year. :lol:
