That was just chilling to watch, Lebron looked nervous pacing back and forth how could he not be.

A too often overlooked part of the KP trade was dumping Timmy on the Mavs. He's such a dead weight player.

If the first round picks hit for the Knicks, then the clear cut winner of the trade will be NY, because KP is not a star, but he's being paid like one and not by NY.

Right, I see how you are winning on this trade All the cap space, all the great draft that NYK acquired from Mavs that Pills will use year in and year out To make Knicks great again. To sh..it on KP when he has a great night. How deep some will sink? Alleged intellectuals. The results of this trade will be seen in 2-3 years.Not now. It does not need a psychologist to understand it. Boxscore Warriors without watchinf the actual game. May I suggest that it can be the current NYK name?

I wasn't commenting on KP's game tonight as if one game has any bearing on considerations of a player's overall value or the long-term net gains and losses of trade packages, but go ahead and express your pusillanimous self to your heart's content. I don't mind

To be clear, I was fine with the Knicks passing on MPJ due to his crazy injury concerns, but yeah... He's really good :-?

Nuggets beating Bucks right now, they've played 9 guys and they all have 10+ points. Their team play is insane.

Exactly, anyone who gets on the Knicks for passing on him is totally downplaying the injury factor. There's a reason he dropped to Denver who had the luxury of a no risk pick. If he stays healthy that's great, but the likelihood is low.

I've never seen anything like it:

says several factors go into it

Explain to me, what are the long-term net gains? Dumping salaries for an imagined cap space? Because I see no other gain in this trade. No sane big-time player will come to NYK in this awful atmosphere, under this management or with this owner. Partially because the franchise is being mismanaged by 2 fools (and lying about KP trade reasons, btw), who still live in early 90-ties and partially because no sane big star black man is coming to Dolan's team when Dolan is funding Trump's campaigns. (This aspect is under-discussed on this board, btw) With this front office, you may draft the next MJ yet you will not notice. because he will be benched and underdeveloped. I am in here because I still love the Knicks and wish NYK well. A certain fantom feeling. But don't **** on KP when it is undue.

Haha fund campaigns?. I bet you that at least 97% of the owners do, and how do you know that even MJ doesn't contribute to Trump's campaign. MJ is a billionaire with capital gains that for that range is making buukuu dollars right now with all the tax breaks.

While some players don't want the bright lights, there have been others that once they come to NY, don't want to leave regardless who's running the team.

Also I still haven't understood your "sane big black man" part of your post.

What is not to understand? Many folks in this business are highly opinionated on many political, racial, social, etc. issues. KD , LBJ, you name it, Kobe (God bless his soul) have been quite outspoken on many of that. Do you really think that nobody noticed that Dolan has/is funding DT's campaigns? None of my business anyway, I am not American, but isn't it right? I could even bet my morgage that players know and follow this ****.

Still don't get it. 99% of all American team owners, Corporate CEOs, etc are certified Republicans. No matter who's in the office. :crazy:
