Just saying.

i have no issue taking on bargs


I HAVE A HUGE ISSUE GIVING THEM CAP RELIEF AND PICKS


WE'RE THE ONE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO GET PICKS IN RETURN FOR TAKING ON GARBAGE CONTRACTS


you didnt give up cap relief. if anything you saved 5 mil in 2015
the 2016 pick is the pick as a result of the knicks and nuggets swap.
if the pick was decent and had value itd belong to denver


everyone needs to get their heads out of their asses and see the trade for what it is.


this is where we disagree.

Bargs has 1 big contract that's literally immovable


Camby and Novak are 2 smaller contracts that can be throw ins for any future trades you guys attempt

near term we save you much much more money

Bargnani allows the Knicks to pull Hibbert out of the middle.



LOL u dont know any basketball by saying such nonsense

if anything, barf is gonna pull Hibbert INTO the middle.

I cant believe how many of u so called knicks fan could be happy with this news


bargnani has talent. he can play he was in a bad situation in toronto


how the HELL was he in a bad situation? In fact, he was in the best situation of his career. He was the star player and the first or second option in the first unit. He was allowed to shoot as many gotdamn three's and no matter how many mistakes he made, he was still allowed to play like he usally does.

He can no longer shoot like he did a couple years ago. TOR was going to amnesty him in a week. But ur comment confirms that u dont know much about basketball.

I'm sick of people rationalizing us giving up a 1st round pick for a guy who was about to be amnestied next week. Do you not realize how dumb this is? Who gives a **** if his contract expires one year earlier than Novak, it's not like we're going after a superstar FA that year and it's not like Novak's 3.75M deal can't be traded. Heck, I bet Ujiri is gonna flip Novak's contract to whoever gets Dwight and make Grunwald look even more stupid than he does right now.

Only way Bogut would come here is if Amare went there.

incarcerated bob is the fake guy, right?


he's routinely wrong and right,

and doesn't ever reveal his sources or who he was/is. He's gone after people for questioning his sources.

guy is a joke, and his followers are some of his alt accts (yes he follows himself with probably over 100's of accounts)

Nvak is a nice player misused by a non-adjusting coach. Hes going to go somewhere else and thrive.

in a team riddled with injuries it actually makes sense to give up a first round pick for a charmin soft power forward who has been riddled with injuries for the last two seasons.

i swear you can't make this **** up.

The moment Nets traded for Pierce and Garnett I knew we were going to do something stupid, Knicks never dissapoint you if you put yourself in the worst scenario.

But a future pick for a guy who's played less minutes than Amare in the last 2 seasons is just really really stupid. At least we didn't trade Shumpert for Fields.

By culture change I don't mean never trading picks. I mean not making short-sighted moved for washed up garbage that involve us paying significantly more than market value.
