There’s a reason the suns let him go

Dont think Suns are doing anything with a reason at this point but could start to say that about Knicks too pretty soon myself

There is no long term plan here. They are not even commiting to be bad for better picks. We'll be perennially picking in the 8 to 11 range.

The one thing that they do well is sell hope. The fan base always believes that it will get better, and we'll be in contention in no time.

Yeah, I like the odds we have now vs. what you’re talking about. 2 of the top 2 picks should’ve been in the 8-11 range and you’ve yet to respond when we bring that up. Thanks though.

What's the point of a KL meeting when there's no shot he was coming?

Let's not do this again. He wasnt coming. Period.

If the Knicks can find someone that can teach or motivate Randle to play defense consistently he could be an All-Star. He's extremely, extremely talented offensively.

So what's the starting 5?

I would guess Robinson, Randle, Knox, Barrett, Junior.

What does last year have to do with any lotteries in the future? They are completely separate events, and have no bearing on each other.

What if this year the 3 worst records get the top 3 picks? Are you gonna say tanking is worth it again?

I'm sick...

Even if signing Kawhi was a long shot, it’s a shot you need to take. This is disgusting. 2010 said this is what happened too. Props to him

I don't know what the knicks are thinking. You never turn down a meeting with Kawhi. We spent all this effort clearing cap space and not even taking meetings

Despite the constant media drubbing on our actually respectable NORMAL rebuilding off season moves, if we waited for Kawhi to meet just to miss out (which we would have), it would only be worse.

at some point we have to be honest with ourselves. We have to start putting a competitive team out there. Another 17 win team is not helping to build a winning culture and is not attractive to players; our own or others we may want.

If the Knicks really did cancel the meeting... well. **** the front office.

Bucher reported it too.

TBH, why waste each other's time? He's not coming by himself to a 17 win team.

we couldn't get the guy who wanted to be in NY. We should sit around and wait for the guy that wants LA?
