I don't think this is similar to Melo's situation.

The Knicks have the assets to make a big deal. They have a bunch of picks and a bunch of solid players. If there is any way to package Randle + two more players + 1-3 picks and get back a star, they should do the deal.

Plus the Knicks already have a bunch of young players they need to develop. They already struck gold in the draft with McBride, Grimes, and Sims, in addition to a couple cats on the summer league team who look good.

Knicks have the assets, they should use them. I'll usually take a proven player over a draft pick anyway, unless we're talking about an undeniable college talent.

It's Zachs team and he's the bigger star. He was planning for a bigger contract which he got. The bulls have a better squad than us. Why would he leave Chicago who made the playoffs to join Randle? There was no inclination of Lavine ever ever coming to this team.
Was Zach getting top 5 votes and taking the shot at the end of games or was that Derozan? He’d leave to be the man.

The Knicks aren’t winning a championship any time soon.

Not sure what the hell it is that Knicks fans want or expect. :mjlol:
What’s fukking hilarious about all this, is about a month into the season after making this trade, while the rest of us are encouraged by Mitchell and hoping for the best, you’ll be the first nikka to zag and remind us how fukking low the ceiling of this team is. :russ:

MVP votes. And why are we acting like the Bulls are legit contenders? They’re not that much better than us… at best they’re 5th in the East and that’s pushing it with the Nets falling apart and the Hawks and Raptors on their heels.
