their doing us a favor as well
not sure if you heard but we are fukkin trash
plenty of teams would love to have paul
Nah man I haven't noticed we're trash, thanks for the heads up.

Yeah they're doing us a huge favor, maybe we will win 35 games instead of 27 and get the 13th pick in a deep draft. All while taking a small market teams biggest handicap off their hands. And give up assets in the process to do it? No thanks. Like I said, you wanna make it to where we just take on salary? Sure. Not giving up assets to not even be a fringe playoff team.

Ok but here’s the thing the Knicks can’t purposely tank I’m sorry . They need to make the necessary moves and let the young guys plsy with guidance and plan . Talent is important in the Nba but the odds of getting the number pick in the draft is so messed up now . Also show me the last team that tanked their way to a title ? We need to focus on improving and developing so a fringe playoff team may be leading us to the right direction. I don’t want to waste two years of rj and three of Mitch for a not sure thing

I didnt say anything about tanking. Im not even against taking on paul, Im just not interested in giving up draft picks/assets for a 35yr old pg making 85 million the next two years.

What are all the mid round draft picks for if not trades ? And if cp3 can help develop the young guys into better all around tough players then it’s worth it . It’s money we would only be spending on players that are comparable to Randle was as a FA . I want FVV or a decent trade for CP3 after that a stretch 4 if we don’t get one in the draft

8th pick isn't a "mid round pick"

The assets are the mavs picks are mid round picks unless they are terrible next year and expiring contracts. Also a 8th pick in a weak draft isn’t exactly lighting the world on fire
The question i responded to was giving up the 8th pick for Paul. And im not giving up next years mavs pick when kp just tore another ligament in his leg

:mjlit: Exactly with that Latvian fakkit missing the next 2 seasons due to injury, we need to hold on to those picks.

BRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKLLLLLYYYYYNNNN
Man, Atlanta would have a nasty squad if they got Trae and Mitch. That wouldn't even be fair. Watch they start throwing some big names put their for him. Trae, Garland, Mitch? I'd be heated.

Edit: Wolves, not Hawks? fukk LaMelo Ball, keep Mitch.
