Rumored that New Orleans is exploring the trade value of Naji Marshall. I like him as a player.

Naji and Garett Temple for Cam Svi and a future protected first, preferably one that started with some other team.

Gives Thibs two quality bench options with positional versatility. I know Temple is cooked, but he is a tough bastard and his salary makes the deal work. Marshall gets paid Svi money.

Bring on the Nyets.

Be careful what you wish for.
I also dislike the fin Nyets.
Just dont wanna jinx the Knicks.

Oh well.

At least we tried to make it look like a basketball game in the second half.

We are two games ahead of where I thought we would be at this juncture.

I am not mad at them.

Kyrie was a beast in the fourth. Nets three point game was ridiculous!

We have the second hardest remaining schedule in the league based on opponent won loss records.

Take this with a grain of salt. 

Except for Facil, who can take it with a side of fries. 

"Knicks Targetting OG Anunoby"

Okay, I'll bite.

Multiple #1 picks, Obi, Cam...minimally.  McBride. 

Just spitballing, for fun. 

2023 Dallas #1
2023 Washington #1
2024 Knicks #1
2026 Knicks #1

Obi and Cam works because Raptors are under the cap. 

So...

Creates a conundrum at SF/SG, though theoretically, OB could sllide over to play PF with the second unit when Julius rests.  And Jericho could also play some PF. 

Meanwhile, we have RJ and Grimes playing minutes at SF/SG, IQ at SG/PG. 

C: Mitchell, Isaiah
PF: Julius, Jericho
SF-PF: OG
SG-SF: RJ, Quentin, Evan, Svi
PG-SG: IQ
PG: Jalen, Derrick, Ryan

That would be nice, but he is not coming that cheap.

Ergo, he's not coming.

crazy m'fers want to give up 3 picks and players for a glorified m'fn role player, but don't want to pay up a lil more for a game changing offensive juggernaut....

that some ill shit,

Rose better do something meaningful this deadline after one of the greatest whiffs in franchise history this summer.

Clean out your litter box. 

I'd be fine with Rose doing nothing, rather than satiate the BLOOD LUST of MFs like you, insisting that he hit one oout of the park and get us A FUCKING SUPERSTAR. 

PS: Meanwhile, something for everyone.  Remember how Kiid was mocking the Knicks for passing on Bones Hyland for Quentin Grimes?  WELL, the NUGGETS are looking to trade him.  Former Coach Karl said he is a great talent, but very immature, and that his shot selection would torpedo the team's playoff aspirations.

I don't think Lester, or anyone else, imagines we're picking up a superstar.

That ship sailed last summer.

Meanwhile, would be interesting to hear from someone who has seen a lot of OG Anunoby who might explain or justify some of the deals circulating. I don't get it.

Meanwhile. Part 2. I'm still absolutely bullish on Grimes. Predictable that he's getting fried for some missed shots.

He's playing a role right now, but he's got tremendous upside.

Come on, man. Knicks have likely dangled IQ in trades too. Question of particular needs in other areas, not necessarily that  the team has soured on the player.

Yeah, maybe Karl has inside info. Maybe. Or maybe it's just how Karl feels about this kind of baller.
