YES


then we can re-sign lowry + bargs when the contracts run out, watch melo leave, re-sign tyson/shump, trade for derozan, and we can be the next raptors! LETS DO THIS.

FOH with your "yes." that team isnt a contending team or a team that is a lock to make the second round. im done risking our future.


cool opinion

facts are Lowry is a million times better Felton who is a **** TURNSTYLE on defense and a buffoon on offense


lowry is hardly a "million times better than felton." lowry is an upgrade...but a slight one, at that.

Did you think any of that wasn't happening without the trade though?


probably was gonna happen anyway. that's true.

No. but this board is already crying like it did.


It's posts like your that derail the conversation. Talk about the trade man.


Okay, I won't talk about things unrelated to the trade such as George Hill
And just like that, the lead has been cut to 8!

His last year in Houston, he was playing some of the best point D I've ever seen.


He gets lit up nightly so far this season and Lin dropped 31 on him this year in an overtime win where Houston was even trying to freeze him out.

The thing you can guarantee is if Lowry is gonna come here he's gonna be motivated as ****. First good team he's played for in a while, plus its a contract year.

i wonder about that. they're pretty adamant about no long contracts. otherwise they could get him for free by just taking landry back.

guys another question

would you rather make the trade that could really help us this year an get us an upgrade at pg...rather than giving denver a lottery pick?

i would feel sick to my stomach when they would be picking the lottery balls if the knicks were in it and giving it to denver...wouldn't you.

at least this prolongs our pain for 5 years, got to take the positives

We were comparing Hill to Lowry.. how is that the same as calling fans on the board crybabies?

And what was your previous user account? you had told us but I forgot.. just want to know who I'm dealing with.

I've come to terms with the fact that James Dolan hates the draft and plans on building 100% from free agency.
