At no point did I bring up his contract. It's what it is... It's not gonna change. My concern is whether he's bringing more positive than negative to the team
I don't think he is. Considering the role he has to play on this team, I think it is impossible to consider him net positive.
But i'll still root for him, because I know how bad he wants to win.
What drastic "win now" moves did we make????
Literally the entire off season.
I'm a Knick fan too. Born and bred in washington heights.
I love you breh.
Y'all focusing on Noah. Is no one else seeing what I'm seeing?

Listen, I don't think we really have to talk about tanking right now. Honestly, we're not even a .500 team at the moment. The problem is, of course, that the explosive guards we're going to want, will be gone by 15th pick or so. However, the front court could use help too, and there are a number of bigs. Jarrett Allen, is an athletic big, who runs the floor, tries to dunk everything, and could end up being a very good defender. Bolden, who's at Duke is another who could be there in the mid round, has great size and tools, could be a plus defender, if not a stalwart, but can finish and pass and move his feet well, too. Some people like Thomas Bryant, but I'm not sure... he always looks a little like one of those guys at pickup who WANTS to play the most, but just is not quite a good basketball player. And I wonder how much effort/length is getting him over at the college level, which won't necessarily translate in the pros.
You could also go with a guy in the Harry Giles mold, and just make him KP's front court mate, and instead of looking for more defense, get more offense.
