Which has lasted longer:
a. Knicks search for a legit pg
b. war in Afghanistan
c. war on drugs
you get the point (pun intended).
Yes Quickly will help when he is back on the court, but the Knicks need two PGs (who needs two, who needs two...). Payton is not a starting PG -period. DSJ is not an NBA backup. Franc is not a PG. I give Burks credit for pitching in, but c'mon.
It is not a secret how badly the knicks need a real starting PG. So am I wondering what Rose's - and his huge braintrust - plan is, their vision?
This situation sort of reminds me of Gettlemen's tenure with the Jints. When he came on all he talked about was improving the O line - which everyone knew was essential. And it took him three years to finally get to it. Him and his hog mollies...idiot...
Rose had cap space and picks and should have addressed the PG issue at the top, not toppin. A solution - well understanding that most top tier FAs are simply not coming to NY, maybe be creative. Bo's suggestion that drafting both Halliburton and Quickly and then unloading either DSJ or Franc, for Chip's proverbial bag of beans, is, if nothing else, creative, naively optimistic, and outside the box.
Going with Payton, DSJ, and bringing in Quickly - who can play with or off the play, is not thinking but merely going through the motions - it took no effort or deep thinking to do that.
