Actually, maybe we're drafting now for Westchester and didn't announce it?! Can we turn next year's first rounder into two 40 plus second rounders?

The problem with Rose is that he is a 33years old career injury-prone. And his game style relies on athleticism. Its a risky sign. Especially if we cap out this season and try to build a team to compete for the next 3 or 4 years. Besides, he should not be a great asset in a trade for a true star.

Goddam right. Looking for 2 years. The nerve. Besides, offering Rose to Thibs is like offering a bump to a coke addict. Can't tempt him any longer. Better for everyone.

Remember one thing: Thibodeau’s rotations aren’t more than 9 deep. In the playoffs he has an 8 man rotation.

We are not going to be in on a bunch of guys. Just 2-3 guys at most to complete the 8-9 man rotation. I don’t even think McBride will even be a rotation guy with how Thibs runs his rotations but who knows.

Maybe he'll learn u can't have an 8 man rotation that's only 3-4 scorers deep.

As long as those players are cheap, marginally talented and on 1 year deals, I'm fine.

If the Knicks starting backcourt becomes Schroeder and Fornier, that doesn’t seem like the worst thing in the world. At least we’d have the shooting and playmaking we need at those spots, though the defense could get ugly.

I think Reggie and Alec goes to a championship contender.

Simultaneously, they don't seem to want anyone 27 or older

They don't even want to give up anything more then Knox Frank for star players.

Weird rumor of us being interested in Richaun Holmes when he's seeking 4 years, $80 million and we already have Robinson..

That short rotation is asking for trouble down the line. Look at all the injuries happening around the league

Best move is to sign guys on one year deals like last year. Need to save the cap space for 2022 free agents

You have to understand we have the most cap space. Every agent worth a damn is going to link us to there clients to drum up interst.
