I’d say decision-making/flow is basically tied for his best attributes with strength.

lonzo is like a slightly suped up frank. He doesn't run an offense in the half cour.t He is great in transition but is extremly limited in getting into the paint and creating for others. More of a "sytem" guard then a engine. Is that really what we are looking for?

He's an improvement no doubt...but he isn't getting us buckets when we need it so whats the point?

Burks is more a sixth man role. Bullock would be the starter...

Second time SGA has been mentioned and I love it each time.

Of course we all know it's wishful thinking. Too bad.

You guys mentioning Ingram and Lonzo and getting excited. I’m thinking about Bledsoe and sweating bullets.

I'm actually ok w/ making a play for Bogdanovic b/c even w/ him, I still think this is a bottom 5 team. but he's an RFA so unless Kings just let him walk it'd probably have to be a S&T. definitely wouldn't give up a 1st for him, I'd give them a singular 2nd rounder (not enough). I do want to keep the tank intact

i'm just saying if it doesn't, fire these guys. if they even make it to then.



RJ, Obi, or next years pick have to be legit for us to bring anyone here. Which means most likely these guys are getting fired.

I love RJ, he's my favorite Knick by far and I hope he plays his entire career in NY.

But I think he was gone the second Leon Rose entered MSG.

I don't see how they're keeping him unless he becomes an All-Star in his second season.

Rose's mandate is to bring stars to MSG. That's what James Dolan hired him for.

The front office did a brilliant job signing Payton making a Payton/Randle package for Westbrook or John Wall something where Knicks fans would celebrate getting rid of them rather than being in likely cap hell. 4-D chess at its finest :lol:

That’s what I’m thinking!!!!!

:pray: :pray: :pray:


I think we have 26M available, dont we? We can sign Burks, Noel, Ed or Payton with the MLE.

There arent expensive players without contracts except for Bogdan, Ibaka, Ingram and AD.

There something going on...

We need a starter PG and SG.


Even if it's not for a staring PG, feels like either DSJr or Frank get put in a trade, either with Randle or Davis or whatever.

It's 3 guys who can play PG and they drafted a combo guard in Quickly.

I guess it's possible they anticipate a trade later on and prepared ahead of time, since you figure they'll be an attempted to move to trade Frank or DSJr or both at the deadline.


Yeah, people seem to think Thibs is going to play 12-14 dudes. That ish ain’t happening.

Hmm Burks played better last season so I’m assuming he’s going to start.
