I get it.
That makes sense. I'm saying, people won't be saying no to NY because of ineptitude. They will say no if they like their situation... that's a step up from the past.

triangle can work with a PG like conley breh
conley can be the ball dominant guard and just sign a three and D point. hell kobe basically was the point and d fish just spotted up
you cant possibly be trying to compare Williams to two nikkas who only played 23 games last season. At least dude plays

It can work with him I never said otherwise , but a player of his caliber is not needed for it to succeed to its full potential. Not worth the contract he would want.

Because Al Horford's coming to Minnesota to link up with Towns and be the GOAT PF/C combo in all of the Western Hemisphere

He's being paid to be a bench player. In 20 mpg, he makes plenty of sense and he'd give Melo flexibility to guard 3's or 4's which could conserve his health. Not that D-Will is anything on defense, but he technically can guard either Forward and that's nice to have with Melo.
joking... kinda

honestly brehs really looking at Phil's roster moves of acquiring Afflalo and D.Williams. Those contracts are the exact kind of contract you want to have on the roster if you were thinking your going to move Melo later in the season
More or Less both are expirings or if they take the option short term cheap deals. They can be easily packaged with Melo to get something more back/salary match or they can leave on their own at the end of the season or they can stay for 1 more year for a little bit of money. That Afflalo and D.Will contract just screams "This shyt aint built to last as is" to me because they are short/cheap deals. On their own teams probably wouldn't want them but both deals would be great trade filler.
RoLo was the only really good acquisition because he's young going into his prime Center and can be the starting C regardless if Melo stays or leaves. Even then RoLo could be moved too if Phil thinks that is the plan.
Anyhow once Melo has shown the league he is healthy and teams come to realize they are a player like Melo away from being a legit contender I wouldn't be surprised to see him get moved for a packaged based around youth and picks. I mean the only goal this season is to not give the Nuggets/Raptors a good pick. Thats a shytty goal for a season, even saying that its to learn the triangle is questionable because outside of the youth only RoLo and Melo will likely be here in 2016.

Knicks are not moving Melo......the Afflalo & Williams signings are low risk, high reward situations.
And NOBODY expected the Knicks to be contenders in 1 off season. Phil did a very good job with the cap that we had & with who was available. Gasol & Aldridge were not coming here. They both gave signs of that during the season

Yeah those are great trade pieces. I'm not even caught up on the knicks not getting a star player or being a contender. Just look at the make up of the team and outside of a RoLo's at market deal Phil added 2 guys with extremely movable contracts. Either or both those deals would be great filler in trades.
Phx, La, Houston, Indiana & Charlotte...
All teams that are going to be on a spectrum of desperate - willing - to make trades this year.

He's going to Houston or LA.
