Put Some Hornacek On Our Game: 2016 New York Knicks Offseason Thread

[Typical Knicks Fan]

In their proposal, the "Grizzlies trade Mike Conley, Courtney Lee & Russ Smith to New York Knicks for Langston Galloway, Kyle O'Quinn, Jose Calderon, Derrick Williams, the Knicks 2018 1st round pick (unprotected) and the Knicks 2022 2nd round pick."

I could swear Phil Jackson said something about never trading away first round picks because it would mortgage our future.

Sources: Knicks expressing interest in backcourt help

In talking to people around the league with knowledge of the Knicks’ thinking, it doesn’t appear that the club is on the verge of making a significant move to address these weaknesses at this point.

But some members of the front office recently expressed interest in obtaining a young scoring guard or a shooter to improve the backcourt, sources said. Though, one source cautioned, the Knicks don’t plan, at this point, to make a move that would have an impact on their future cap flexibility.

The club is projected to have close to $20 million to spend in free agency this summer. So the Knicks likely wouldn’t want to trade for a player who is making a significant salary next season, thereby eating into their cap space.

With that in mind, who's out there for the Knicks?

According to reports, Jamal Crawford, Kevin Martin and Brandon Jennings, among others, might be available via trade. Jennings is a 2016 free agent, so he wouldn’t impact the Knicks’ cap situation this summer if they choose to acquire him as a rental. But he’s coming off of ruptured Achillies tendon injury, so trading for him would come with a significant amount of risk. Martin is scheduled to make $7 million in 2016-17, so a trade for the Wolves guard would have an impact on the Knicks’ flexibility this summer.

Jamal Crawford... Even Clips fans don't like his chucking ass.

Jennings is for me. Has potential. I remember that he was balling right before he went down. He's a FA this summer so if anything we don't have any long term commitment to him but I wouldn't want to give up too much for a rental.

Kevin Martin? :mjlol1: that's all I have to say about his ass.

Ughh man this season with no pick is really hurting us smh I'd rather we just build what we get. Those current candidates besides Jennings are getting old and are straight chuckers with no defense.

I'm hoping better options pop up as we get closer to the deadline. Right now, I'd do Crawford or Jennings for Calderon for the simple fact that it unloads salary...but I don't see the Pistons doing that deal. Kmart would be a pretty bad decision. At this point, there's nothing really available that I would give up anything of value for. Is Jrue Holiday expiring?

I wonder if teams would compensate us to take a malcontent off their hands though...I'd take an expiring trouble maker if second rounders got thrown in, we could always waive the dude. Even better if we dump the extra year on Jose with it.

Makes sense, breh. You're easily one of the best Knickstape brehs that post in this thread.


You always post meaningful shyt. You add your input in a respectful way. Even if you disagree with someone, it's always in a good classy way.

Plus those after game in-depth reviews alone are just


You're top 5, just off them reviews


I hope you stick around, breh. :wow12:


A nikka be looking forward to what you have to say after every game and shyt :wow13:


Keep doing your thang, big homie

I don't want Jennings, dont want Lawson, I just don't want anybody who's realistically available at pg right now. If the team really has no faith that Galloway or Grant can step up in place of Calderon, then just sign Conley in the offseason in 6 months; he's having a down year so he'll come relatively cheap at least.

[GhostoftheMan]

why are we trading a young PG for a guard who's going to be a free agent in the offseason. Memphis is probably going to blow it up if they don't look better by all star

Where do people bet at? I missed the boat on Holly Holm and Conor McGregor for fights and bovada stopped taking my deposits after I cashed out my gains to end last nba season.
