Because their FO doesn't suck like the Knicks?



the front office that just got fired? Or the front office before that got fired?


The FO before that got fired was b/c of pressure from the NBA regarding their blatant tanking.

Pretty sure no one looking at Sixers now thinks he did s bad job.

My bigger concern is that they’re trying to move up for MPJ and not Doncic.

I wouldn’t do it but it’s very tempting to try to move up for Luka. Did you listen to today’s Duncd On pod? Deep dive into Luka. As I was listening to them go through his profile all I kept thinking about was all the useless wins that the vets helped us get.

Teams in Luka range (top 2) are not the same teams in MPJ range.

Duh :wink:

If we’re going to try to move up, moving up for Luka would be my preference

I still believe that Porter will be there for us if we want him at #9. There are 9 or 10 top prospects this year and Porter is the only one with health questions so why would a team ahead of us take him?

Depends if one of those teams happens to be the Kings. I think we are confusing teams wanting to trade down as Knicks wanting to trade up. Reports have been that the Kings and Mavs are trying to move down, so it wouldn't be surprising if those two teams were the ones calling the Knicks. Maybe not even just the Knicks but other teams around us like Chicago and Cleveland and Philly have probably all received calls. But yeah, if the Kings are one of those teams then Doncic would be an option

If Knicks are trying to trade up 2-3 slots, then I would only do 9 + 36 + Burke. If we're going after Kyrie, then we're not going to keep Burke around

lol, the headline def got me to click

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/2018-nba-mock-draft-bamba-falls-to-knicks-sexton-and-young-battle-for-top-pg-in-latest-projection/

9 KNICKS
Mohamed Bamba | Texas | Fr | C

The Knicks aren't giving up on Frank Ntilikina or Emmanuel Mudiay just yet, which means they have the luxury of grabbing Mo Bamba -- who surprisingly falls to them at No. 9 and is the clear-cut best available prospect on the board at that spot. Bamba's a rim-protecting big man with an endless wingspan who, alongside Kristaps Porzingis, will help make up the most terrifyingly long frontcourt in the league.
