I hope we do better than that.

Great draft to Bo.
Gives us a choice of my 3 main realistic targets.
I think Okongwu is going to be special. 
TyH could be the next Beal, but better handle.
While Vassal fills one hole perfectly, giving us 3's & D from the wing.
(Even could consider Hayes, who fills a great need but also a risky pick on par with Franc and Knoxville).

I'm hoping as many of Toppin, Wise Man, Okoro and Pa Williams as possible go in the Top 7.
Hayes also.
I'm not expecting Okongwu to be there at 8.
More likely we get a choice of Vassal/Hayes/Okoro, which to me is an easy pick.

So... trades happen today? 

[kidcarter8]

So if you are Brooklyn can you really give up all of Dinwiddie, Prince, Allen and LaVert, plus picks, to get Harden?

You would still have Jordan and the ability to re-sign Harris. 
Bench would be mostly min deal vets.

Kyrie, James, Joe H, KD, DeAndre

Wins the East?

[bodiddley]

Kyrie, James, Joe H, KD, DeAndre

Holy Shit, that would never work.
The defense would be a disaster; while the offense would implode.

No one likes playing with Kyrie or Harden for long -- remember that.
Would you want to be a vet role player on that squad?

[kidcarter8]

Long shot but deal with Warriors for the number 2 is said to possibly hinge on Knicks grabbing a veteran such as Jrue to FLIP to GS along with the #8 and other picks, taking back Wiggins in the process

So, do we want to look like this -

Ball
Barrett
Wiggins
X
Robinson

for starters?

Thibs likely says no.

I detest Harden. His game, what he has done to the game, and what a choker, nonetheless, the Nets should do that deal in a second, tho trying to hold on to Allen if possible. Easy to fill in the gaps around that big three.


*** They are already all in on now, no way you don't go ALL THE WAY ALL IN. Fun to see Nash play with that.

Ball
Barrett
(Bullock)

Fixed.

I really think we are keeping Reggie.

yep - good analysis

Allen is looking to be the sweetener, the "if we had to" player they really prefer to keep.

[kidcarter8]

Dzanan MUSA to Detroit for Bruce Brown

Could be a nice piece for the Pistons

[kidcarter8]

More Knicks possibles?

Not linked to any rumor - but WES MATTHEWS and KENTAVIOUS CALDWELL-POPE have turned down their player options with MIL and LAL, respectively.

Crisis averted

Chris Paul headed to the suddenly interesting PHOENIX SUNS

[chipstern]

Shams Charania: OKC has traded Chris Paul to Phoenix for Ricky Rubio, Kelly Oubre, Ty Jerome, Jalen Lecque and draft compensation, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. – via Twitter ShamsCharania

Since it was reported that Westbrook wants out, the Hornets have emerged as the most likely team to land him. Front office sources tell me Michael Jordan wants the 2016-17 MVP, which is unsurprising and understandable. Westbrook would put eyes on televisions and fans in the seats (once they’re able to safely return). Charlotte would win more games, too. But those same sources add that the Hornets won’t put the no. 3 pick in Wednesday’s draft on the table for Westbrook, so the organization is clearly not overly zealous to make a deal. – via Kevin O'Connor @ The Ringer

Mavericks star Kristaps Porzingis will not be ready when the NBA season resumes on Dec. 22, GM and President of Basketball Operations Donnie Nelson said Monday on 105.3 The Fan. – via radio.com

I'd be curious to see how Westbrook fares in HOUSTON should Harden be shipped off to New Jersey.

But CHARLOTTE or NEW YORK would also be fun.

Knicks playing "let's see how much his price comes down", since we have other avenues to improve.  Brentwood Mitch vs Leon "We're Doin' This" Rose.
