That is mediocrity at its finest!!!!!!!!


Again, I get a kick out of some of you.

I wouldn't want to max out the team with those guys, but each one is probably a better player than anyone the Knicks have on the team now, and had on the team last year, besides Randle.

So, and this hurts some, but:
Fournier, Oubre > RJ.
RJ is cheaper. RJ is way younger. RJ will get better. But right now, those guys are objectively better. Shocking, I know.

Duncan Robinson a tougher case. He's a good shooter. I don't think he's an overall better player than Bullocks or RJ.

Scroeder probably better than Rose is at this point, based on his ability to go out and play 32 mpg.
However, Rose cost DSJr and the rest of 7 or 10 million, while Schroeder is going to get 20 million somewhere.

Funny how this mediocrity at it's finest is actually better than the mediocrity the Knicks rolled out each game last year.

Again, I'm not advocating for these players, but I swear, there is almost no one good enough for a lot of posters.

Everyone says this FO doesn’t leak anything but they leak EVERYTHING. They leaked Toppin. They leaked McBride.

Now are leaking Fournier and Dennis. Disgusting. Stay away from those two. I’d much rather have Lonzo + Duncan Robinson.

Talent wise I would be all over Schröder (one of the best slashers like Tony Parker) but I just dont like his character, especially next to our young guys

Gawd I’m not gonna lie I been excited at the thought of Sexton coming to the Knicks. Should have known better than to ever have any hope in this franchise. Dennis Schroder is soul crushing to me.

These are just rumors by the agents. Knicks have the most cap space and every agent will use our names to drive up interest and price.

Man listen.. I’ve been a Knick fan long note to know that these will be the signings.. that’s it.. that’s the team..

At this point let’s just hope they are inflated 1 year deals.

1 year 25 mil a piece? I’m fine with that.

Yep we can keep rolling over in hopes that the mythical free agent comes here/ wants to be traded here and here only or we can go for it and start building a team. Time for rolling over and complacency is over


Lmaooo, it also appears like teams don’t even want to trade with us. That’s why RJ is important to me. He wanted to be drafted here and is already a better player after 2 years. Melo and Amare gets props from me too.

Haven’t signed a 4 year deal since Timmy I believe.

We couldnt even trade up to 5 from 8 with this front office, yet somehow people think this front office is capable of trading for a franchise player with the assets we have. Time to start focusing on the development of rj and the youngsters on this team worth a damn while building a team that allows thibs to coach like he desires. Clearly this bare bones strategy aint doing anything but getting our names in all the rumors.

If this turns out to be the case I’m fine with it, but I doubt both of them do 1 year deals

If I expect to be disappointed can I be even more disappointed by what happens? I guess with the Knicks anything is possible....

guys don't agree to 1 year deals on day 1. you gotta wait to see who falls through the cracks to sign guys to 1 year deals. they're giving multiple years to schroder and fournier.

Good point but maybe we have eyes on saving money to bring a guy like Rose back.

Idk, can’t they go over the cap to bring back Rose?
