Nice how that works out when you make calculated yet aggressive moves. Yeah. Being apathetic doesn't work in any walk of life. What boggles my mind is that the path for Knicks was quite simple, this season. Get a top 3 pick (there are 3 amazing prospects coming up), keep Porzingis and get some max free agent, due to their drawing power. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember a decade ago when Mitch K was brave enough to not trade Kobe and instead make moves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember Pat Riley convincing Ewing to stay too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hootie249 293 Report post Posted January 31, 2019 Picking this time to point out it's not just the losing. Starting with the Fran Vazquez pick, straight through the Rashard Lewis overpay and the Stan Van press conference, we looked like a dysfunctional franchise. The last six years solidified our bottom tier standing. Dwightmare,Skiles,Oladipo trade,Eraserboard gate. We need a franchise reset. I left off a ton of drama and mistakes as well. It's really deep.

Basically hope one of these draft picks become a superstar and the others starters. Stupid plan to utilize the draft when you aren’t trying to get a high pick!

In other sports look at John Elway, Eli Manning. Not a new thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It got to the point that Orlando was the only team I’d watch. Now? I haven’t bother in two years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
