Noel is a good signing, but considering the idea to lose as many games as possible with the elf signing..it doesn’t make sense

Pelicans just got Adams. They don’t need Mitch. Offer would have to start with Zion’s former teammate, RJ.
RJ & Picks most likely. It’s David Griffin after all.
Ingram is an all star.


This was my thought process when I didn't put Mitch in my hypothetical. They just traded for Adams.

The fact they know we needed shotblocking off the bench is a good sign.

I think trading Mitch is mega stupid. Why would you trade him? Too big, too impactful, too cheap, too young? What? Don't do that.

This Quickley kid can defend. Elfrid can't. Obi has work to do and we don't know. But if they build with some D, which we have a headstart on actually (both personnel and coach) that's a good step in the right direction.

I like Burks and Noel as cheap back-up players. And they are less than 30 years old.

at this point you hope they just sign someone with no connection just for the sanity sake for future years. :lol:

Here’s the thing tho, no one would want to come to the Knicks otherwise. That’s the sad truth


i'm just saying, you have to be able to evaluate talent past "yeah, i know that guy. let's get him". it's not even about noel. that's not a big deal. the picture adding up now is just a little off.

I would have rather threw the bag at Aron Baynes on a hefty 1+1...somebody to challenge Mitch and beat him down in practice.

We got Noel to fill the Mitch role so Mitch is redundant. Send Mitch out now in a trade for Bledsoe or Monk and then sign Cousins and MKG.

but does every move have to be relationship based?


Apparently it's the only way to get someone here. They tried money last year. Next year is probably begging and 1,000 rosaries. :banghead:
