Obi and IQ shining :ohlawd:

30 point triple double :wow:

Obi career high :wow:

the future is bright if we get rid of the vets


We really can’t mess this up. These dudes literally spend time at each other’s homes.

Help me come up with a Fournier trade brehs. He’s gotta go too to make room for the wing we’re drafting at 12. (Whoever falls between Davis, Sharpe, Daniels or Mathurin). I think the Jazz for Juancho (expiring) and Rudy Gay (2 years left) works.

I like story’s idea for a back up 4 with Jalen Smith or Eric Paschall.

We could probably attach second rounders to Burks, Noel and Kemba pretty easily.

Julius to Portland makes way too much sense and is actually a good fit for him. I’d ask for the NO pick but I doubt we get it, I’d take Keon and whatever picks they give up.

Inject this roster into my veins:

IQ-Rose-McBride
RJ-Grimes-Keon Johnson
Cam-Shaedon Sharpe-Rudy Gay
Obi-Jalen Smith-Juancho Hernangomez
Mitch-Sims-Taj

I was thinking about games lost due to free throws:francis:. The team isn't that bad or that far.


based on how rose was talking, i dont think randle is going anywhere. obi is going back to the bench

First game back and Randle goes back to his iso spin cycle ball and the Obi chants start, :patrice:.

Think they move Julius and Mitch.

I.Q. has range and can be very dynamic out the P&R he’d outproduce R.J. if he had the same minutes and usage.

R.J. most likely ain’t making no All-Star teams dude unless the Knicks are damn good…there’s always going to be wings better than him in the East let’s be real.
This nikkas always low key hating on RJ :mjlol:

Knick fans will probably hate me for this and I agree because I don't know if this guy is a fit for anyone at this stage but I would seriously consider a swap of Randle, Noel, and Kemba for Westbrook. If it fails with Russ. Bench him asap. Randle contract is too long and he's a net negative.

To me, I would do that, do a SnT for Mo Bamba as well as resign Mitchell Robinson.

To me, that's what I would do.

I wouldnt move Evan. I still think he got value.

HONESTLY, I’d do it if there’s nothing else out there for Randle. But I’m cutting Westbrook. I’m not even bothering. I’d demand a first and make them take Burks too just to create 8 million in cap room this summer to sign a young back up 4 like Smith or Paschall. That’s how bad i need this guy off this team.

Mo and Mitch would be interesting. That’s a lot of money for the center position tho. We paid about 12 mil total annually for Mitch and Noel. Paying Mitch and Mo will probably cost 25-30 million. That’s alot when we can just sign Sims to the same 30th pick rookie scale contract we signed Mitch too.
