Its fine if they continue to bolster the bench...doesn't take away from trading 3 2nd rounders is a terrible use of assets for a guy that they never plan on giving a rotation shot.

Sort of. They were wheeling and dealing in the draft. They turned a first into 5 seconds. Then two of those seconds into 4 other seconds. Then they traded 3 seconds for Kolek.

Technically but the Knicks picked up 6 2nd round picks that draft from moving all around the board. It was all just moving parts.

Because he’s looking that bag. Probably will cost more than we can afford.

I’m sure but if nobody is offering it to him then he might have to just take what he can get

What's even crazier was OKC trading 5 2nds to the Knicks for Dillon Jones
