Another look:

Send some draft capital to NO for Ball in a sign and trade. Make a big splash offer to Norman Powell. Then use exceptions and whatever remaining cap space to bring back Rose, Burks, and Gibson

Mitch Taj Pelle
Randle Obi
Barrett Knox
Powell Burks Quickley
Rose Ball Viladosa

Get two of Virginia’s Murphy III or Nova’s JRE or Pirate Sandro. 

We’d add shooting, scoring, and fluidity without sacrificing on D 

I like it and I think it’s far from impossible to pull off.

For those looking into trade possibilities this chart ranks each team's draft capital for this draft.

Knicks own the 9th best draft when all picks are considered while the Kings own the 10th best draft value. 
So in theory the Knicks could trade their draft picks (19,21,32,58) for the Kings picks (9,39) and it would be considered a slight win for the Kings
That's just an example.  And of course doesn't consider other assets that could be used in a trade like players, salary dumps, or future picks.
Sacramento would obviously prefer to deal down with New Orleans while the Knicks could talk to the Magic about the 8th pick.

They assign a value to every pick in the draft and rank teams based on the sum of their pick values. Data from previous draft picks' performance, playing time, and salaries are factored into a pick's score. The height of each pick in the chart is a loose representation of its value.

Some somewhat surprising observations:
The NETS own 4 picks in the draft
The Bucks 31st pick has more value than the Suns 29th pick and Utah's 30th pick (shouldn't the NBA look into fixing that?)

Brad hires Ime Udoka as Celt's new HC.

Fruit from the Pop tree

Reportedly received blessing from Tatum Brown & Smart who knew him from TEAM USA in '19.

Good luck Mr. Udoka

Good hire. I wish him well except against us.

I don't know if Simmons has a flawed character, that seems a little harsh, but he has lost some swagger, he's playing scared, and he needs to find his confidence if he wants to be the player it seems he could be.


Castrated by his coach, who then has the balls to say he can fix him.

[kidcarter8]

Anyway, you wanted a plan.  Sustain our cap space, max out our draft assets and remain patient in terms of developing our culture.


USE the cap space by maxing our draft assets.

Look at what your beloved Suns did.  J Jones didnt bring in ultra young guys or rely on newly drafted players.  They were experienced.

Go to work, Leon.

The priority in the off season should be  to acquire some shooters.  X's and O's are important but without some dependable shooters it means nothing. 

[kidcarter8]

Knicks need a stud, period, Jerry

If you want to hope we get it at 19, well......

good luck with that

Good hire. 

MEANWHILE, a tree grows in Brooklyn.

Bank, just in case you missed it, poop coming out of Nyets Central is that the owners and management are not pleased with Kyrie Irving's shenanigans.  And might be willing to shop him. 

Can a ludicrous Brad Dressler Knicks trade fantasy be far behind. 

Unbelievable talent.

Enervating douche. 

I'll take Dimwiddie.

My

GOD

Somewhere, Meadowlark Lemon and Pistol Pete are smiling.

Castrated, lol, he got called out, exactly like he should have been— after costing his entire team a spot in the Eastern conference finals.

“He doesn’t work, he doesn’t listen, and everyone around him is family, and he’s constantly babied,” the source told Smith.

It's fully on him. He's got the chance now to fix himself.

Cinderella is still dancing

and Hawks flying high

Trae's making a name for himself

Thank you. 

Again look at Jaylen Brown. 

A MAN.

Then look at Simmons. 

A PUSSY.

Injuries happen, but he's no-showed so many games the past few years, and left teams stranded. Add that to his prima dona me-me-me attitude and I could see where he wears out welcomes, so I'm not shocked Net mgmt might re-think their commitment to KI.

"Million dollar arm 10-cent head" was said years ago about some stud pitcher, but that's Kyrie, except adjusted for inflation its more like

Forty million dollar handle-10-cent head.

What's really infuriating is that one second he'll do something selfless and spiritual and generous, and in the next, the actions of a self-absorbed martinet.
