So I think the knicks so draft a PG and then take Conley’s 1 year contract to “mentor” the youth and get the 23 pick from the Jazz as payment. Then package that and 27 to move up. fukk around we could come away with Vassell and Kira


I also think we should buy low on Jerami Grant, and Frank and lock them up on team friendly deals



Conley/Kira/
Vassell/Frank
RJ/Knox
Grant/Braz
Mitch/Randle/Taj

Then play the youth heavy

Fixed

Woah talking about trading Mitch and shyt, nah. He’s our best young piece

4/60 sounds like a solid enough deal to me

This speaks more to the abyss that the Knicks are in. Not that I think Mitch is a bad player, but he's not gonna be the cornerstone of a title contender.

oh yeah for sure, our team sorely needs young talent.

I just hope Thibs runs the offense through RJ cause I'll give it the first 5 games if I see Randle freezing him out to spin in the paint before I check out...

frank has played like a bytch in about 80-85 percent of his games. thats not a coaching or a age issue

The more i think about Cole, the more i feel like he’s probably the most likely to be able to have a Jamal Murray/Donovan Mitchell like performance in a playoff series...

Cole is super tough to project for me. Dude's spacing felt worse than even Duke's was last year at points. His season was disappointing as hell, but I was SUPER high on him before the struggles and I wouldn't be shocked if he bounced back really nicely in NBA spacing. It's just hard to say.

Yea. He scares the shyt out of me at 8. But if we do like Macri suggested, and trade for 15 and Aminu, or 19 and Prince and he’s there, I’d do it. There’s always a player in the draft that you need ignore there college season and focus on high school and it doesn’t make sense that Cole was top 5 in his class this time last year and now he’s not even top 15 in a weak draft?

i hate this time of year because i obsess over a new prospect every 3 days. This is gonna be a long ass month and a half to two months.

They really should. Would be a great move. A pick and a solid player (rental probably)

He's going to flourish under Thibs system. You need defenders like him on a team. If his offense steps up a little bit, he'll be a decent Knick and he his the best defender on that team.

Anyone outside of RJ and Frank would be good to trade on this move.

 

[K-Deini]

4/80 for mitch?

Probably less cause I think the cap lowers due to all this covid stuff

It would probably be for Bullock or something since they need the salary dump. Wonder who they want to go after... Bertans or Gallo make sense.
