Draft Thread 2: The Electric Draftaloo

[Worst_to_First]

take RJ, guys!

He loves basketball and plays w passion. He isn't someone who plays just bc he's tall and athletic. He loves the game and will put in the work to improve.


Telling you!

Out of curiosity what would you guys be willing to give us in exchange for bringing RJ to his home team?

If Kawhi leaves? I would listen to Pascal for #3, DSJ and future 1sts. Our GM would ask for lots for Pascal but RJ could get him to listen. Especially if Kawhi leaves bc RJ will sell tickets while we rebuild.


works good for the knicks if Kyrie and KD are the targets bc you keep all the cap space...actually open up almost 8 million in cap space fo the knicks this off-season since Pascal makes only 1 million, DSJ and #3 will be 9 million combined. you could sign JJ reddick too.

Kyrie, Dotson, Frank
Reddick. Tier
KD, Knox
Pascal, Knox
Robinson


Solid team imo

[DrCoach]

I would trade Frank for #26 if Darius Blazey is available

[NotMyKawhi]

If I'm the knicks you keep Robinson and Tier bc they make so little.

Trade #3, Knox, Frank and DSJ for an elite star on a rookie deal. Keep all your future 1st round picks

[BLACKFEET 2010]

I would trade Frank for #26 if Darius Blazey is available

I like that kid’s upside.

[YouthMovement]

take rj

Thank you for your profound contribution to the argument

just my opinion. it’s that simple to me

a lot of his struggles had to do with the configuration of dukes team imo. i think he fits well into today’s NBA. strong work ethic . People are unnecessarily low on him

I like Spicy P but if we would need to give up all of those to get him then I don’t think you hold RJ in very high regard.

Instead of Kyrie and Reddick I’d go for Kahwi and Rubio.

Rubio, Frank
Kahwi, Dotson, Trier
KD, Knox

Robinson

[Worst_to_First]

In a trade down scenario it would be great to get an unprotected 2020 first rounder or at least a pick swap.

James Wiseman may have pulled out of the pack in terms of being #1 but still a lot of good guys here, a handful of which are local kids who am sure would be proud to don a Knick jersey.

You don't mess around and trade down if you think RJ is better than players you'd pick later in the draft. You just don't. His value is higher for a reason.

Agreed.

I think there’s arguments to be made if you’re not sold on RJ.

What I think is curious is if they’re not sold on RJ they’re trading down, and I say that because they haven’t shown interest in Garland who will almost certainly go 4 or 5. Unless that means they really like DSjr and I can’t see that either.

Because of this I assume RJ is their guy

[Reign23]

I don't like a trade down here... we need top level talent, not another 2-3 above average kids.

[Tron Carter]

For the Garland fans...

Watch on YouTube

This video just makes me want to sign Kyrie even more.

facts. and dudes would rather sign kemba gtfo

[awy]

He’s trolling at this point

how is it trolling when it's simply true.

not my fault many knicks fans are getting hyped over this dude despite reality.

It’s trolling because we get it. You hate Barrett. There’s not much else you’re adding.

y’all shutting out contrary info isnt trolling?



anyway it is so cavs to show supreme interest in a canadian player. get it done pills

[KnicksGadfly]

If they really think they have a shot at Durant (100% chance he's coming), I'd trade down, especially if NOP says no to a Davis trade.

2020 is pretty weak imo as well.I watched Mobley just dominate Wiseman

if I were to rank HS prospects.

!. Bates
2. Green
3. Mobley
4. Jalen Johnson
5. Scottie barnes

No one in the 2020 or 2019 class

[Context]

RJ should at least grant the Grizzlies’ request for a workout.

He can tank it like what Jabari Parker did for the Cavs but that thing could bring very bad karma.

with all do respect to you worst to first- f thaaaaaaaaaat! business is business...its with in his right to
to do it...they need to just take Morant and run with it- i always say to people why would you want to be with
anyone you have to beg to stay with you...

[F N 11]

You take RJ or JA. Point blank period. They are top talents. Stop overthinking this

[HerSports85]

Take RJ and be happy

You are right of course but if I’m the Grizzlies I would still do serious work on RJ regardless.

He really seems like a good fit on their squad.

[Marty McFly]

we have several of those average potentially above average kids. you tank a whole season to get a top 3 pick and you've got people fien'in for more picks.
