the report said that dame thinks he could attract other players here to play with him and he can't in portland. that's why he likes new york. maybe he doesn't want to join a team as much as wants to put his own together.


do i think it will happen ? nah

Which report? I musta missed this

I'll tell you what, the idea of Tatum down the line is very interesting. Players only seem to want to leave Boston lately

I was hoping they hired someone like Jason Kidd as their coach to speed up the process of him leaving :lol:

I would give up our whole roster for him right now

SAS knows his stuff, and has his sources..I’m not blowing it off what he says, and I still believe KD was coming to the knicks pre injury, and when he got hurt Dolan was hesitant, and Kyrie convinced him to change his mind..with that being said, dame wanting the Knicks as his #1 option would immediately drive down the price of what the Knicks have to offer..we will see very soon in free agency and how the Knicks respond to determine if the Dame stuff is real

If the Knicks don’t extend Mitch before the end of next season, he becomes a unrestricted free agent

Name them.

Right now the Knicks don't possess the following:

A starting NBA PG
A starting NBA wing
A real backup Center

And honestly, there is probably an argument for another veteran wing, but that's less likely.
Oh, and Vildoza is unproven running the NBA point, McBride is rookie and IQ isn't a PG. But we can assume one of those are the backup PG.

I have 6 names on my list that are realistic:
Lonzo, Lowry, Powell, Trent (via FA) and Sexton, CJ (gettable via trade)
2 of those 6

Resign Burks, Rose, Taj and Bullock. Save for 2022 season.

How about going after Steph Curry who is a free agent in 2022!?

He initially wanted to play here to start his career and what star player doesn’t want to play in THE MECCA!?

His GM Bob Myers has said some really dumb stuff as of late and it appears they won’t be able to build a real contender around him going forward in GS.

Not a top tier contender and Klay hasnt played in 2 seasons AND has had the two Worst injuries a basketball player can have.

He’s gotta:

1. Be good enough or close enough to what he used to be.
2. Not fall apart

Carmelo off the bench as a backup 3/4 would be great in his current role as essentially a spot up shooter. Bring him home.

It all makes sense now. Get ready for dame time


Actually, IF this turns out to be true a lot of things really do start to make sense.

Clearing more cap space, gaining a future pick (as a trade asset) instead of using it at #19, etc. Also, rumored names such as Melo, Oubre, etc. could all be Dame's choices. We'll soon see...
