FA/Offseason Thread: Perry not an idiot! Right? Right?!

[moocow007]

trier and Dotson are replaceable. Trade them for 2nd rounders

there's literally no reason to trade either of them.

Theyre young.. but they aren’t game changing and easily replaceable. If you want someone like Reggie, he’ll be someone off the bench, and it’ll mean Trier and Dotson less minutes, I’d rather get picks then waste someone off the bench

Why would the Knicks, who are trying to develop a young talented team sit the two younger and more talented players over a journeyman?

outside of not getting kawhi or signing someone to a long term deal, there's nothing to be that angry about. this is an overreaction.

if he doesn't jump on the take on bad contracts to the t-wovles desperately trying then its a fail...u didn't clear cap space not to use it on the two best ways to use it

sign A level talent
use it to collect draft capital

if you just sign mediocre role players...why clear cap space at all?

i doubt minny is giving you an unprotected 1st. they've sucked too much for too long to do that for d'angelo russel.

then they don't get russell...no one else has space to totally clear 30+ except us now...

Let it go man... he's a good 3 and D guy

Lmao, not even that. He’s 28 years old and we have 4 guys at the 2/3 already.

This is the worst post I’ve ever read.

We did need big forwards, that's the only part I agree with them on. I would have ran Knox at the four though, just to keep his minutes up. Now you basically stuck your own draft pick on the bench. Utter silliness.

Knox will be a bust if you make him a 3 and we just spent 30 million on 2 4’s. Y’all don’t realize how clueless this FO is.

Honestly, I have no issue with Taj and his deal, he's a good vet to have around. Good signing to help the young guys, primarily Mitch. Cant field just 20 year olds.

But why Randle? Makes no sense. I know Fiz can so much to say about him, but damn. Might as well trade Knox then. he's buried now.

I'll try. I'm not that sold on these ideas, just trying to understand the process

Knicks needed 4/5's badly
Knicks scouting and analytics etc decided that Randle was the kind of player they could include as part of the youth rebuild
Knicks still don't have THAT long a commitment to Randle (since uncertainty around 2 or 3 years)
While Knox MIGHT profile as a 4 eventually, the Knicks may still see him as a 3 - guessing here.
Knox seems to need about 2 years to grow into his body to play 4, which is - Randles contract!
If they like Randle after 2 or 3 years and Knox does become a PF, they can use Randle as a 4/5 off the bench and he'd still get 30 minutes

I dunno. There are ways to see it.
I'm on the fence about Randle.

For now on, I’m only conversing w people I like on here lol

I am %95 certain we are getting Kawhi 2010 working the phones as we speak

[Polk377]

Well, you're looking at Plan B.

We're always looking for the savior. First it was LeBron, then Stat, then Melo, then KD, now it's Giannis. So now, the franchise is on hold in finding savior mode again. Hope they know what they are doing.

Hopefully by 2021 we don't have to and will have developed our own star or two from DSJ, Knox, Barrett, Robinson and Frank. Remember Perry's main goal was to make this team in the mold of the Pistons. A team full of very good players that mesh well together.

If we sign Bullock, Perry gotta go

Bullock gets me to go complete heel turn on Perry

We need his shooting so i'd be fine with a Bullock signing as long as the years and price is right.

they probably won't. he'll be a laker again. and the lakers won't have to max him now as his options dwindle.

An actual 95 percent or a Stephen A 95 percent?

[DOT]

What is Minny situation? fill me in guys.

They want to sign DLo but need to clear 30 mil to get there

Some are proposing we take on Dieng and Teague to get either picks or Culver

Nobody wants Wiggins under any circumstances

wiggins got 4 years left...no one taking that one

teague is expirnig
dieng is trash but fits the 2 year deal mode

we get assets.

We get Wiggins and a lotto protected first

I can imagine the shouting matches with Uncle Dennis now.

[Jeffrey]

Trier and Dotson are worth a whole lot more than 2nd rounders. In fact both those guys are better than Bullock.

I'll take Dotson over Bullock (if he cost us a lot of $$) and Trier.

Time to let go of Trier, thought we needed him for KD. If he doesn't start passing or learn how to pass, he gotta go.

[Stannis]

I am %95 certain we are getting Kawhi 2010 working the phones as we speak

He has been absent for some time.

I'm hopeful he's part of Kawhi's team and busy doing some serious recruitment

[KnicksGadfly]

We need some damn shooters.

they're assets. trier has the potential to be one of the best 6th men in the league, and dotson is a prototypical 3&D player. they should be considered part of the future unless used in a deal for a star player.

[robillionaire]

We need to sign some dogs we should use the MLE on a solid 3 and D guy like deshawn stevenson

Me reading this board when the KD news came out:

This is the worst post I’ve ever read.

If someone’s opinion about trading Allonzo Trier and Damyean Dotson is the worst post you’ve read, that’s an issue ain’t no big deal baby, they ain’t nothing special. We tryna get a real squad now boyo
