Would you take RJ over these past #1 picks?

2013: Anthony Bennett
2014: Andrew Wiggins
2015: Karl-Anthony Towns
2016: Ben Simmons
2017: Markelle Fultz
2018: Deandre Ayton

Another take away from the article.

Player A: 22.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 45.4 FG%, 30.8 3P%

Player B: 21.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 50.1 FG%, 31.8 3P%

Player A is Barrett — at age 18 at Duke.

Player B is Wade – at age 20-21 at Marquette.

I think we should keep the pick and build with our draft picks. KD is the key, he will bring other free agents.

All the signs are pointing to Kyrie and KD coming to the Knicks. I'm tired of lying to myself. Those guys are gonna run NY. Our third pick is probably in training camp with them, Knox, Trier and Mitch.

Good basketball players with good bball I.Q. see the potential in our front office. Kyrie and KD will get a max contract for multiple years plus our draft picks and a supporting cast. The Zion thing was a lotto, this shyt right here is plotting. Y'all sleeping on Fizdale and Perry hard. Guys like our team. P.S. A.D. is not coming.

:whoa:

I'm not believing none of that shyt until I see them in uniform for game 1. All of these reports and sources are a bunch of bullshyt.

It just came out that 'people close to Jeanie Buss' advising her to trade LeBron were people in her spin class :dahell: ESPN and all the networks and debate shows have been running with it for weeks. Same with all this manufactured Zion refusing to play for Pelicans bullshyt.

So after a year of reporting that KD and Kyrie to Knicks is a done deal, signed and sealed, if they don't come everyone will be saying 'omg delusional Knicks fans believed they would come to NY". The same people who were reporting it was a done deal.

The situation is ripe and the timing is aligned. The franchise is positioned perfectly, unlike previous dreams we had.

Not that the AD trade won’t happen. However, I still think the Celtics sending Tatum and Brown just works better for NO if they know they are getting Zion.

Plus Ainge is looking to gut that Celtics team and maybe entice Kyrie to stay. Whereas, the Knicks would probably want to keep Mitch.

Let’s not get to ahead of ourselves.

1. Draft the best player available. Which is RJ

2. Target KD and Kyrie. If they come, you have so many options on what to do.

3. If KD and Kyrie say they want AD as well, then you trade whoever the fukk they want without any hesitation. Knox/RJ/DSJ/Frank/Mitch/picks. I’m not saying trade the whole house, but whatever it takes.

4. Target sold veterans who will take the MLS to play with AD/KD/Kyrie. Target players like Reddikk, Wesley Matthews. You can always fill out the roster with shooters and defenders.

Kyrie
Veteran
KD
AD
Deandre or Mitch

Glad your not coach, that's fukking aweful. I'm not gutting a team for 1 player. fukk that. I will leave this thread if all we have is KD, Kyrie, AD and nobody especially when there's a bunch of promising young PF out there that could help Mitch for Frank, Vonleh, Dotson/Trier, Thomas and 2 mil. AD will be a free agent soon, why are we rushing? Have we even thought about Julius Randle?

Pretty sure Towns, Simmons, and Ayton would go over him in the same draft.

Julius about to get at least 15 mil a year when he opts out, I think Dallas goes for him as a local kid and because as I use to say here he could work around KP in the front court on offense/defense.

For the knicks one of Markieff or Marcus Morris make more sense, Some toughness, and undervalued because of their tendency to get in trouble together. Markieff took a minimum to join OKC, Marcus took 5 mil for Boston. The 5 Mil MLE should be enough for either of them at this point.

Kyrie
RJ
KD
Markieff or Marcus
Mitch

The bench needs to all play reliable Defense and shoot the 3. So the stars can be subbed out and the offense can still work and defense could be played all game.


Bench
Frank
DSJ
Dotson
Knox
Mario

Also I would take a flyer and see if Kyle O'Quinn would come back. We're a better team and he would get legit minutes here as a backup to mitch.
