I like how everyone becomes GM's on here talking about what the Knicks should of done but having zero idea on what other teams were offering but they somehow would of gotten a better deal for Willy. lol

Positive would be "the Knicks are making calls." This ish just feels like the old fake hustle days.

yeah agreed...perry will probably not pull the trigger and say we didn't get enough value when he traded the better asset away for poop on a stick

No.

If you think this is a good trade then more power to you.

Here's a news flash, though: Monk sucks and so does this trade

You took a 2nd rounder and developed him into a player, something worth more than a 2nd now - a late first or another young player. Instead you trade him for two more 2nds so you can draft another Cleanthony Early and Slavko Vranes. Do you know how difficult it is to find a player in the 2nd round and have him become valuable? This is an awful trade in all aspects. We got ZERO return on a prospect we developed.

Monk sucking right now doesn't mean WHG nets anything close to that type of player, a highly touted rookie in the middle of his rookie season. I don't think this is a good trade or a bad trade. WHG has gone from underrated to overrated. I'm not going to celebrate the deal or say it's the worst thing ever like I am sure some posters will do. WHG is an absolutely atrocious defender and he's been overrated by this board to the point where people were actually expecting a first round pick for him.

The 2nds can also be used in trades. People wanted picks, we have a lot of picks now. And our drafting has actually been a strong point. It's a minor deal, let's not make it out to be a major one.

Man they have some explaining to do. How do you say yes to that trade? They really owe the fans an explanation.

I have been saying ever since Sean Marks and Kenny Atkinson were hired that they will rebuild the Nets quicker than the Knicks and that's still on track.

might be the only way to get a top 5 pick with all the bad teams this year; have already won too many games that it might be too late to get higher than there 9th worst record

Now that is interesting, maybe they are going into the tank. I'd keep noah though. Run Noah and Kanter till they expire and get rid of Lee and KOQ for picks/ young guys.

kanter is definitely here next season, but his expiring could be a good asset for a trade.

I agree, like lots of people I prefered a kanter'a trade and keep willy. But now with this trade I do'nt know if FO is really stupid or if they had verbal agreement to keep kanter and KOQ next year ? Because if we trade willy, KOQ tomorrow and noah , we have nothing inside (or maybe they think O bryant will stay ?...).

I'm afraid with the deadline now...

Still trying to trade Noah.. I'm scared for our current an future 1st rounders...

My point precisely...don't you think they would have taken a better if ANYONE was offering one?
