Oladipo?

Doesn't add up. 

Due for a big new contract.

Coming off major injury. 

And I mean, where we give up Randle AND Knox. 

Hey, what do I know.

Marc Gasol to the Lakers. 

Great pickup.

Why are you seeing Knox as such an asset?

McGee better than Gasol at this point. Neither is our problem, so that’s fine.

I have to look up Jacob Evans.

Alright. Evans is a 6’4” SG who hasn’t accomplished much in two years.

Competing with Powell and Harper to stay on the team. Omari is a very useful player on the other hand.

Mitch Noel Spellman
Randle Toppin Knox
RJ Bullock Iggy
Burks Rivers Quickley
Frank Payton DSJ

Rivers being a smaller actual commitment by the Knicks than DSJ.

He is 21 and has barely scratched the surface of his talent.  Long, athletic, still gorowing into his body, good stroke, showed growth on boards and shot blocking as year played out....too early to give up on him.

I mean for the earthly remains of Jabari Parker.

FUCK Jabari Parker.  Fake Shing Object.

But Buddy Hield?

Mmmmmmm....That would be fucking DOPE. 

But with Bogdonavich likely out the door, Buddy gets the starter's nod he wants.  And likely stays.

Still, Knicks are primed to do SOMETHING, that seems certain. 

PS: That's FOUR new second round picks for those of your keeping score.

I’d still be looking to move DSJ for someone more useful.

Something is in play. 

Barrett, Bullock, Quickley, Payton, Rivers, Ntilikina, Smith, Harper, Powell, Pinson, Burks, Evans.

That's 12 points, combos and wings. 

Plus

Robinson, Noels, Randle, Toppin, Knox, Brazdeikis.

That's 6 bigs. 

Eighteen total.

Okay, Harper and Pinson are two-ways. 

That brings the number down to 16. 

So, 13 in uniform and 2 in street clothes. 

Logic dictates some package of players and perhaps some draft picks. 

Not feeling Westbrook or Harden [Chuckle]

Love Kiid's notion of Hield, but my crystal ball is cloudy. 

I love the pickup of Spellman.  Kind of a Baby Wes Unseld body, and a great outside stroke.  He and Toppin could redefine our PF presence.  Julius not the outside stroke to match up with them. 

WHO THE FUCK KNOWS. 

Rose's curve balls break harder than Sandy Koufax's. 

PS: Somewhere, somehow, World Wide Wes has been surgically attached to James Harden's foreskin.

John Wall.

Hmmmmmmm....Interesting

Thirty Years Old. 

Strike One.

Major Asshole Coming Off Bad Injury [Played 41 Games in 2017-2018, 32 games in 2018-2019, ZERO in 2019-2020]

Strike Two

2020/21    $41,254,920
2021/22   $44,310,840
2022/23   $47,366,760

Strikes THREE FOUR FIVE AND SIX

Just for GIGGLES....

Went to the REAL GM Trade Checker

Randle, Knox, Smith, Bullock

For

James Harden

Trade Accepted

Let's Assume some of those #2 picks, and one or both of the Dallas #1 picks. 

Or some sweetning on some of our recent aquisitions.
