Wait did y'all expect rambis to leave? You know he's still under contract right?

Often, when a head coach is deposed, even an "interim" head coach... they seek employment elsewhere, because 1) It's too much of an insult to stick around, and 2) You realize your ceiling has been hit, you'll never get another shot at the lead job.


I really really really don't want to spend 120 million on Conley.

I really really really like him though. I'd live with it.

I'm starting to warm up on a contract with Conley that ends when Porzingis is fully moved into superstar mode.

I understand @I.V. and other level headed Knick fans who want to wait for better moves though.

I just don't mind giving Melo the best we can get now and when Porzingis reaches the beginning of his maturity as a superstar having those contracts expire are bringing younger stars to come in with him.

I mean when you put it like that:patrice:

But I'm still worried about his durability, age and the money it'd take to get him.

That's a huge mistake. Melo will be entering his 14th season and only a few years left. To make moves to appease him makes zero sense

Every move from now on should be with KP in mind and building around him


You can build around both melo and kp

No one tryna wait years 4 kp development to start winning

Why not? Knicks have been bad for years why not wait a few more? Where not contending while Melos here anyway

The quick fix moves haven't worked for the Knicks why not show patience for once?

You can be patient but with the team currently constructed

And the weak conference its in

Ur a good pg away from a 8th or 7th seed

Probably get swept or lise in 5 games in 1st round

But atleast ur in offs and not irrelevant

You forgot the team was actually 20 and 20 at one point in the playoffs hunt (7th seed)

Being a 7 or 8 seed and losing in the first round in 4 or 5 games is not relevant
