[Mecca]

Can Jackson play SG so we can start Kuz

[god shammgod]

greenie, let it go. he's too old at this point. he's got only a few years left. they're not gonna put it together anytime soon. they probably won't figure it out afterwards either but that don't really matter. all things have an ending. except realgm unfortunately.

[sushibear]

This is all probably speculation. Carmelo still have the upper hand here. I think it will take more than just losing for him to waive that ntc. Phil gotta give the ok to horny to bench him or reduce his minutes dramatically.

[Greenie]

Just to let you all know. Phil is keeping Rose.

LOL

Eloquent, hard-hitting, intelligent post.

Right back at ya

[Meat]

how sad this is


apparently most of the knicks fans here are so excited to see a move that they are not looking at this with open eyes


Melo is actually playing quite well - passing, rebounding, defending
the media has been up his a$$ about trades and he's been all class



meanwhile

Melo makes 5 mil a year more than Noah but there is zero talk about Noah and his contract
Phil has been invisible this whole time, which to me is really unacceptable
Phil has totally spoiled the relationship now and its gotten to the point where we dont have the option of trading Melo we now have the urgency to do so and that never leads to a good trade
Teams see this mess and players see this mess and none are gonna bend over backwards to make things better for us


Phil has screwed this up, not melo

and fans who just want Melo "the crybaby" or whatever gone are not thinking clearly
nor are fans who think picks are some magic bean that can't fail

Trading Melo to LA won't get us anything valuable
Trading Melo to Clev won't get us anything valuable

and then all of you crying for a trade will turn your attention to screaming for Phil's head for the bad trade

the only destination worth anything is Boston and that should make every real Knicks fan nauseous

unless we get BKs pick, Crowder and one of their guards like Smart or Bradley {with Amir Johnson to make salary work} then we are getting a bad deal

you dont make a deal just to make one
Id have thought knicks fans would understand that by now

It's not, no one here is clamoring for a king's' ransom, more so there's almost 0 enmity being thrown melo's way. The knicks cant offer him a ring anytime soon, it's literally a win\win, the knicks are doing him a mitzvah by sending him to cle or lac

It's not a win for us.

We look stupid yet again.

only in the short run

Plus 1/2 more tank years and LOL at rest of the league

Or get next year's Brooklyn pick

Ball
Doncic

If Phil pulled that off, I would put a put a paper bag over my head, paste a picture of Jeannie on it, poke a hole through the mouth, and give Phil the best BJ he's ever had in his entire life.

my **** what? ayo

Jeannie too old for Phil's tastes now...Phil only eyeing younger winners now and has his eyes set on...




Kellyanne Conway.

Im not too fond in getting back what the clipper have to offer but how does Melo not be intrigued by LA. I mean If he doesnt win and Paul and Blake leaves, then he's in LA for 2 more years chillen like he would of been doing in NY anyway.

[delvec19]

How am I stuck refreshing one of these damn threads again??? Hasn't been this bad since the threads when we we're rumored to GET melo.

Kuz is already 27 years old. He cant be a starter SF with his defense. On offense he's not that good either.
Backup role fits him well.

I already said goodbye.
Melo is leaving. Bye Melo.

Rose is staying...
Why? Knicks.

Every FA is going to say no and Phil will keep Rose.

We havent had a tweet in 10 pages lol whats good with that.

This franchise has been disappointing for the longest fkin time. There's literally only been about two seasons in the last 15 years where I had some real long-term hope for the team, and each time that hope was smashed, so it's always best to take a cautious approach with this fkin team.

I wanted to believe again when Phil was hired, so I got on board just based on his past-success. Going into the Okafor/KP draft, I wanted KP because I thought Okafar was a no-D scrub, so KP coming to us only got me further hyped. Was totally on board for KP's rookie year and accepted the growing pains, but then I had to instantly jump back off the ship when Phil signed Noah to that ridiculous contract. Literally at that fkn moment, I knew that the Knicks would be stuck as a .500 team for 2-3 more years at best. Couldn't even believe that chit contract when I read it. Had to jump off on principle.

Fast forward to now, and it's obvious that this team is trash. WELL DUH! Da fook. So now Phil wants Melo gone huh? Now bro?! Whatever dude. It's true that Melo's play has dropped this year, but it's been dropping every year for like the past 3 years, so what, I'm just supposed to think trading Melo is THE GREAT STEP to getting some new version of the Knicks?

What, I'm just supposed to forget that Phil thought DRose + Clee + 16 mil Noah was supposed to make this chit a superteam? fk dis. I ain't stupid, I ain't forgettin none of that, and I ain't forgetting that Phil has been trash.

There ain't gonna be some new version of the Knicks if Melo gets traded because trash moves like trading Chandler and signing Noah were Phil's moves--and guess what--Phil is still here.

So fk dat. And also, all of these passive aggressive leaks by Phil to the media have been childish as f. I've never even liked Melo that much, but he's getting trashed on his (potential) way out, just so Phil gets to hide some of his trash moves. And honestly if I had to bet, I still think the odds are in favor of Melo staying because he won't waive his NTC. More than anything though, the exit that I'm most looking forward to is Phil's. Melo can bounce and I won't love or hate him in retrospect. Phil though? Man, as a Knicks fan, I want that dude gone. Can we get a competently run organization for once in my life or what? fk dis team

Ok president Trump, I'll fact check your posts from July when I get home.

This is also good for Melo and the NBA. Who doesn't want to see Jordan/Griffin/Melo/CP3 go up against the Warriors? That'll be the real NBA Finals with LeBron getting ready to leave Cleveland right now

[Rasho Brezec]

It's time. Let the Old Yeller out in the woods. Tank for two years. Draft this. Championship.
