fukk them picks! :mjlol:
We really couldn’t compete with that trade because none of us want to trade our young players . Cleveland gave up none of their core and he fits in with the defensive young bigs. I personally would of done the trade but that’s because I’m banking on the fact that thibs has to push Randle down in responsibility with all those options . hopefully If this season goes left we jettison rAndle and any vets and live with the young guys

The Knicks are not in position to contend in the Eastern Conference for the next decade.

Somehow Knicks fans are cool with this. :laff:

That trade wasn’t about players. Ainge wants draft picks to make moves and limit teams ability to improve. Look at the Cavs. They got a small back court, caris Levert who is injury prone is their best wing, and then they run three bigs in Levin Love, Mobley, and Jarrett Allen. If you don’t see the potential for that team being bad based on a injury idk what to say.

:yeshrug:
This is wishful thinking.

They got one of the most dynamic backcourts in the league now Garland and Mitchell are filthy and the bigs (Mobley, Allen) and guards (Rubio, Okoro) and defensive scheme to cover for them.

They were good last year in spite of injuries where they suited up 26 guys.

The Cavs are another team in the East to leapfrog the Knicks for years to come.

I don't think that team as constructed comes out the second round.....:yeshrug:

Okoro is Frank Ntilkina status and Rubio and Caris are injury prone.

I think you're bugging if healthy they can stand with the top teams in the East. None of this changes my opinions on Mitchell he's dumb nice, this is a significant upgrade for them.

So? That would be great in year one.

Some think Mobley is a future MVP level player. Perennial playoff runs and contention are in their future.

Knicks have a 35-40 win team on their hands with no signs of improvement coming.
