Russ has been very effective in the playoffs on both ends of the floor. Why no love for this guy?

He has done so much to help LA win the series!

The film on him charging and chucking while PJ Tucker just sits in the corner with nobody within 5 feet is hilarious.

Hopefully Frank is strengthening his groin in France right now. But seriously, Frank is Marcus Smart without the clown car. Certainly can be better than Dunn.

The PG position here is RJ until he can credibly shoot at an 8th grade level otherwise he can't play, that's just how it is.

PG - Frank's Groin
SG - ANYONE ON EARTH WHO CAN SHOOT IN THIS DRAFT OR DOTSON OR REGGIE BOO-LOCK
SF - RJ
PF - Knox and a bag of sand on his back
C - Mega Mitch

If this is opening night we should be thrilled beyond belief. It means this front office has a plan.

IF KNOX is in there, the plan is to tank.

Watch on YouTube

LOL did this guy get his source on the Knicks interest in Westbrook here?

Randle, Frank Nikita (lol), Wayne Ellington and a first rounder for Russ.

Trade for John Wall and draft picks. That team will be horrible for years to come. Take their assets and don’t look back.

Sign me up. I am def. a fan of any move that adds a #1. Westbrook could win it all. The rest of the Knics can't. Thibs can win it all, as well. Thibs + Westbrook = Titles

A little like Bargnani's infamous missed dunk.

Westbrook is 31 and relies on athleticism, he’s washed and doesn’t fit our timeline

Person who wants Westbrick to lead the Knicks = Person who hates the game of basketball

Maybe Haliburton or Hayes will be available at 8th in the draft.

FVV is better and even him I'd only want at a certain rate.

Probably, yes. I don't see any type of shortcut for us.
