I wonder who we're sending out for him. We have like 20 centers. Hopefully there is a corresponding move coming.

Really like this, but curious what it means. Dwight on the move?

When I heard he was available, I really wanted us to get him.

What the heck how did you to fleece my organization? A 2023 second top 59 protected?

WH only makes $1.4M, so you're looking at sending out someone like Stone or JOB.

Kind of a weird move on the surface for both teams.

And so it begins

Odd time for the Knicks to be trading a big after KP went down. Patiently wait to hear further details.

We hate second round picks.

We made a real effort to get him though, one of our bigs is heading out.

I'll take that.

JOB + 2 seconds. Eh.

This has to be a set up for further trades to come. JOB is going to average 20+ shots a night for NYK.

Well, those 2 seconds would never become anything here, so I'll take it.

I mean, I guess since we don't like using our 2nd round picks this is actually cool.

I really really really hope this means we are trading Dwight to the Cavs or something, but I have a bad feeling that Clifford just convinced the front office that Willy and/or Cody can be PFs because he just wants to play more centers (seriously, our big rotation could literally be four centers, Dwight/Cody/Frank/Willy...)

Trading two 2nds for a 23 year old backup C doesn't feel like a precursor to a rebuild.

Any in put on JOB?

He's not the worst. Sometimes he'll hit shots, and he isn't awful in the paint. He loves his mid-range jumper though, and he's not much on D. Not clear that he's roster worthy, but he's had some decent games for us. He definitely has contributed to us having the league's worst bench with Cody out.

How's Willy?

Not good, but he isn't the worst option to occasionally play 8-12 minutes. He has some ok scoring skills and can shoot + rebound a little, but he has bad IQ on both ends and is just an overall bad defender.

Knicks fan here, I have no clue if Willy will play much on your team since Dwight and Kaminsky are there and are better than him at the moment.

This seems like more of a punishment for Willy. He can't really play good defense and he didn't come into the season in great shape, so he might be riding the pine for your team too, I guess

Well he got beat out of camp by Kanter and KOQ. We all presumed WHG was going to start and improve off his rookie year. His defense is pretty bad, but he's a great low post player, incredible foot work. It's pretty much like a Jahlil Okafor situation tbh
