Why frank caught a stray tho?



I’m leaning bouknight….do whatever you can to move up to get him. Also, have we thought of putting IQ in the starting lineup? I mean what are the Knicks plans for him? I mean I wouldn’t mind putting him at the 2.

He needs a big pg (Lonzo or Frank) next to him if that’s the case. Or else you run the risk of becoming the Blazers no matter how good your two guards are.

Trade all these picks, you know Thibs won't play any of those kids

Not if the plan is for IQ to be part of the bench unit long term and I think it might be. Two small guard off the bench could do some damage. Especially if they have starter talent.

that’s not accurate, he won’t play them a lot is actually the way he coaches

Unless a report comes out they are coming to NYK …. Neither

Who are some unexpected teams that can trade for Dame and he’d want to go play for? Lakers don’t have the assets whatsoever. I guess the Clippers could trade Paul George but idk. Don’t see him wanting to play in Boston. Golden State could get it done but i don’t see him wanting to play with Steph either. Honestly feel like we have a real shot at him if the rumors are true. (Haynes is his boy so everyone feels like whatever he reports is coming from Dames mouth).

Our biggest competition imo is the Sixers. Ben Simmons is a better trade chip than anything we can offer. They’d have to be creative to get to the money tho as they’re $10+ million apart salary wise. While that’s a better trade for Portland, if what the rumors are saying are true and Dame is concerned about the optics, coming to New York who have “nobody” is a better story for him than going to Philly to team up with Embiid.

Why do I feel like he'll be our IQ this year

What u mean the Blazers never had no good forwards that was their crutch not the size of their backcourt.

I rather be the Blazers (we would actually have forwards with Barrett and Randle) than have some bum ass tall guard like Ntilikina or Exum starting being a offensive liability just because they can defend.

shyt, dudes gonna pay for the Knicks mistake in not giving him burn this season. He feeling some type of way, they done rocked the dragon

 

[nyknick]

I don't follow college ball at all so I have zero interest in this off-season period.

Somebody @ me when Frank signs an extension though

If the Knicks draft Tre, we gonna need a Tre Mann/Trae Young, turning bad boys to grown men type of bar for a title. Its at the tip of my tongue () but I can't come up with it so one of y'all hold me down.

Rodney Hood and Zach Collins were good. They just weren’t healthy. I just don’t think you can get away with having to hide your entire backcourt on defense. The only way it could work i guess is if your whole team is putting up 130 a night but in the playoffs none of that shyt matters cause teams attack your weaknesses.

Anyway, I just listed examples of realistic options for next season. shyt, maybe the long term solution could be Josh Giddey. But i agree with breh who said earlier that Quickleys destiny might be super 6th mans. I have no problem with that either.
