I need thoughts from all of my Coli brehs...

Try to keep the format(not necessary but appreciated)(Also, all questions do not have do be answered, just the ones you're compelled to answer:

  1. If you could describe this season in 5 words or less:
    Brutal but necessary
  2. What was one of your favorite moments of the season:
    Mitchell going from his back to blocking a corner 3
  3. Are you feelings on Knox similar, worse or better than the beginning of the season(post summer league):
    Unfairly worse. He had a solid season for a 19 year old number 9 pick but i got duped by that 26 point outburst in summer league and raised my expectations in him.
  4. Would you be willing to give Frank Ntlikina one more season to develop:
    I’m willing to give Frank my life.
  5. Morant, Barret or other if we don't get no. 1 pick:
    I’m very high on Cam Reddish. Like all in. If we got pick 2 I’d be willing to trade down for future picks to get him. My top 5 are Zion, Reddish, Barrett, Hunter, Culver
  6. What is the one thing that you DO NOT want to see moving into the start of next season:
    Wasted money. If we don’t get Durant, i want to buy low on young guys and use the cap space to acquire more assets.
  7. Will next season be the first season in years where it's okay to root for wins every game:
    I sure hope so.
  8. Disregarding salary implications, if you could override salary cap, which of our free agent players would you love to keep? Vonleh
  9. [Trigger Warning Question] Would you, if he were on board with a limited bench role, welcome Carmelo Anthony back on the team for a retirement year: YES

In my eyes there is only one player worth drafting with the number 1 or 2 pick.

I really feel like RJ Barrett is overrated something serious and I'm truly hoping we don't draft him. As far as Morant goes he isn't Zion.

If we receive the number 2 pick we should trade it, start frank at the 1 DsJr at the 2.

At the same time I do not want Kyrie or KD on the team.

This off season is a make it break moment for my viewership of the Knicks.

I haven't had a thought process beyond us getting Zion.

I don't want a bunch of superstars that won't take us to the promise Land, all that is doing is detering us from our goal. It's a emissive distraction that will keep us happy for 2 to 3 years. Ive been a fan too long for these games.

You guys see how much of a cancer Kyrie is with a so called Genius of a coach.
You guys also see how much a quiter KD is, his mindset isn't killer. Now I'm not saying their play isn't exciting or productive but
What have they done by themselves?

Building our team around the pieces we found added with a person with Zions mentality would be the ultimate accomplish in my eyes.

I've seen RJ Barrett's soft player 2 ass mentality. Do you want to deal with passive aggressive chucker type of player. I can't speak too much on Ja but he is similar to DSJr an athletic PG. We already have 3 solid PGs or 2 and one that is 2 years away from 2 years away.

This development of players shyt is getting tired, the same shyt was said about Frank and I told yall we need to win now or draft the best player now. This nikka had no skills with a weak overseas mindset he will get cooked in the league. This passive nikka thinks way too much. He is comfortable being ...alright you get the point I'm trying to be positive.. he will come through.

For me it's like this

Zion or bust.

If we draft RJ(water down Melo) , Nasir Little(Justin Winslow) or Cam imma SNAP!

If we draft Ja my patience will be thin.

We need a game changer this is the fukking Knicks.

Let's draft the most exciting college basketball player ever.

We will happily deal with the consequences later.

(And if it takes time for him to develop which it won't because he is a proven basketball player I know we would support him. shyt we giving Frank who was a fukking lottery pick and been playing ball his whole life 5 years to get right.)

I never do this...

But I'm being completely serious...
I was just having a conversation with a breh who I know is very close to Melo...

Melo told him he will retire a Knick. IF they bring in a team. If they are tanking, then he won't entertain it.

Neg if proven wrong

:dwillhuh: Woah sir! Frank has only been in the league two years. We can agree that both coaches have done him no favors.
