I'm thankful for tanking

I'm thankful that I live in Texas and have access to good basketball( Spurs).

Good luck man

I'm 100% in favor of tanking. Lets get Mudiaye or Okafor.

dynasty in the making

 

[big j 33]

Russy

Unintentional tanking

 

[art vandelay]

Russ is a fan of the league, therefore, he wants to help the Knicks return to dominance.... mediocrity, and get in the 1st round, of the draft

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Land one of these studs in the draft, use our cap space for 2 all stars, maybe trade Shump, we could build a very good team quickly.

 

[nick.]

Outside of Okafor/Towns/Mudiay are there any real difference makers in the top 10?

 

[ballinsam23]

Mudiay and Okafor are the main prizes here. I'd be shocked if we land either.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

philly doesn't deserve any of them hopefully silver freezes the envelopes in our favor.

 

[ballinsam23]

when philly lands the #1, maybe we should trade them our #2 for embiid

 

[clyde the glide]

think this might be my fault.  haven't been able to catch many games so far this year but in the ones i have watched were 4-1.  gotta get my box score checking skills up

Don't watch anymore.

 

[flyeed]

Word son is gunna start watching thinking he's helping, and we'll wind up in 9th seed mediocrity Bolivian again

 

[art vandelay]

^^^ 8th

Many emerge as the season goes on i.e Embiid.

Hoping Phil moves JR and others before the deadline. Get some pieces in the draft and do work next year.

Didn't watch the game, saw the box score and shed a tear

 

[acemaster193]

I'm down with the unintentional tanking

 

[art vandelay]

Here's my question, say they can succeed at the tank, they move a piece here or there, and they land a free agent, what if they still don't win? Where do we go?

We may or may not win a ring, but we'll be in much better shape than we have been since the JVG era. I don't see us being this bad once we land a stud in the draft and sign quality free agents.

 

[art vandelay]

I'd be fine with keeping Calderon and Larkin, if we can get Dragic that'd be awesome. I'm fine with trading Shump, Earl, or even THJr, not all three, but any 1 of them or two of them, likely Shump and Earl, better yet, trade any member of the team not named Carmelo Anthony that ever performs a step back jump shot or step back defense. I'd keep STAT, at significant discount, he will back up the FA 4 the team can get. I don't see Gasol leaving, the Griz is already where the Knicks should be. It would be nice if there were some serviceable centers. Laugh if you will, but when the Heat signed Oden last season I really wanted to see what he had left, but never really got a chance and plus his good guy rep is gone because of his domestic. Let's discuss the future.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Monroe is probably the most likely free agent big. Ideally, draft Mudiaye, keep Caldo and Larkin, trade Shump, keep Timmy, sign STAT for the vets minimum, bring in a big body/defensive presence at the 5, keep Acy. Idk what big name center we could get. Really isn't much out there.

 

[Air Pope]

Trade everybody. That's my solution.

 

[art vandelay]

Trade everybody. That's my solution.

Almost everybody, especially Bargs, it was a dumb trade to me to get him to begin with, if he never suited up for the Knicks I wouldn't care
