What Knicks fan said that? :ohhh:

Understandable.

Who are the big names this Free agency?

KD, Howard, Horford.

I'm trying to remember other names.
Exactly why I'm not liking these knicks threads popping up over the weekend. It's not even Knickstape posters saying anything outside the official thread:snoop:

How breh?

Knicks are literally in the process of shedding the bullshyt from the past.

AND they are going up against GSW and Spurs...
Because a team of Rose, Melo and Porzingis, even in a weak Eastern Conference is probably not a contender.

Not because these three players are not GOOD but because Rose is injury prone, Melo is has been hurt and is playing in the Olympics this summer and Porzingis is still green.

So realistically speaking, what is actually being built here??

A team with big names that can tank for #1 overall while putting butts in seats. Dolan's idiocy is actually working in favor for the Knicks here.

Realistically?
Next year, top PG free agents are in the mix.

With Hornacek... he's going to use the sample size of Rose playing - whether that be 20 games or 70- as a brochure with what he can do with a driving dynamic guard.

This is a retooling.

Trying to capitalize on the weak East while having options to move forward.

Ok. I can see them making the playoffs in the ECF with this rooster. They might definitely give the Cavs hard time next season with Melo, Rose, and possibly Dwight.

However, I still see the Warriors, Spurs, or OKC finishing them in 4 or 5.
:dwillhuh:
We not making the finals, breh.

still need a center, 2 guard and a bench. they have pieces but they need to hit some home runs in free agency.

Some of their bench (Galloway, Thomas, Early, Williams, Afflalo if he comes back) could flourish in more limited roles now that Rose, Melo, a slightly more mature KP, and hopefully a competent 5 can take the pressure off. A lot of those dudes have talent, but were expected to do way too much with the garbage roster we've had in the past years.

Yes, his defense will put them over the top :troll:. Correct sir

You moving goalpost like a muthafukka breh. Act like that wasn't his rookie year. Act like everyone and they mama is saying he's gonna improve/ act like rose ain't a solid penetrating point guard. Act like melo ain't a top scorer in the league.

You in for a surprise.

Only people gassing this are rose stans.As soon as rose was traded they jumped on the knicks dikk with no shame :smh:

Rose with jimmy and pau couldn't make the playoffs now going to the knicks team with holes all through the roster catapults them to east contenders? :mjlol:

Lebron aint losing no sleep
they made it with thibs so moot point
