If he didn't have that NTC, who would be lining up to make a deal?

Austin Rivers is living the easy life, he gets paid by the same employer as his father. Why mess with risking millions of dollars there?

Family comes first, I bet you Doc trades multiple 1st rounders before he parts with his son.

I'm actually dead goodamn serious, too.

Well if Phil pulled that off and he gave me $100,000. For $1M, I'd be willing to be the catcher.

agree to a certain extent but Dolan loves that Phil is getting all the **** and he is sitting counting his $$$. As long has KP and whoever we draft are an attraction and have high jersey sales, I think Phil has longer than you think.

But you never know Isiah can take over at anypoint.

Probably not too many more teams, as we'd still pretty much have to trade him to a contender to save face with other free agents

Kings getting D.Rose for injured expiring Gay+WCS.

Knicks recieve: R.Gay+Johnson+Zeller+filler + 17 Nets Pick

Celtics recieve: Melo+Willie C. Stein

Kings recieve: D.Rose


Make that Noel instead of WCS I think it may be possible, need to tempt Sixers with our shİte though

Reddick/Crawful plus two future first round picks unprotected. I think we should do it and bring Crawful home. Let him retire as a Knick. Heck, we can even extend Reddick. It is not even tanking if you think about it. Move Lee to three, start Reddick at two and bring Crawful off the bench.

I can tell you the next step.. Melo will come out and say he wants to stay in NY and he's not waiving his NTC. And round and round we go.

why would the knicks want to take on those contracts?

And CBA wise the clips can on deal out 2021 pick. They can't deal a 2023 pick.

Not getting legit first rounders is bad in any Melo deal.

If we get Fultz, that buys Phil another term. 4 more years :D :D :D


nah. because we'll still be bad for awhile. you can only suck for so long no matter what else happens. hell hinkie let them know his plan was to suck and they still fired him. everyone answers for their wins and losses eventually.


Fultz plus a stronger KP with some versatile wings and Willy as a bench big is already a decent team.
