little knicks kick off tonight, anyone to watch?

https://westchester.gleague.nba.com/roster/

[Kam]

Our two most talented fowards and most accomplished and experienced 3&D guy have yet to check in...

Yup.  We haven't been whole all season.  Even the whole without KP hasn't been whole.

The trick for Fizz will be minutes for Knox, then Lee, then KP.

So if we are adding three to the rotation, three guys gotta lose minutes. 

[Kam]

Unless Knox really shits the bed I see Mario dropping out of the rotation at some point when KP returns.  You can't cater to everyone for minutes. 

[Kam]

If Trier doesn't make the All-Rookie First or Second Team then there shouldn't be an All-Rookie team.

This man can play.  He has forays to the hoop that are "All-Star" type moves. 
He can take any defender off the dribble "shakin and bakin" better than any current Knick (or Knick of recent vintage).

People are sleeping on Trier.  Not us.  But People.

[Kam]

The officials may not have seen enough to call a flagrant but they could have assessed a technical for the push while Frank was in the air and the stepping over Frank as a taunt.

[Nagel]

wiz could a team that blows it up.

so for my first trade off the year i offer EK and Frank for Wall.

on the face we are getting the star but we are also getting a 5 year contract.


Wiz get to rebuild.

we go into next year with Robinson
KP
Knox
Hardaway
Wall

and who knows who else.

Nagel

You want a Wall and to drain the Wiz?

I had you figured wrong.

I'm red-faced.

I understand that corruption and incompetence runs deep in DC, but I'm not sure its so prevalent it would allow the Wiz to ok a trade as 1-sided as that.

there's gotta be a HUGE kick-back, and I'm not seeing it.

Besides I'm pretty sure Chip won't allow the Knicks to trade the 1s you'd need to swap to snag one of the best PG in the league.

umm no #1 picks will be included.  Only Frank.  this is strictly a salary dump by the wiz getting out from the 160 million they owe him over the next 4 years.

in fact we might be overpaying.

this is just a musing.  more will come and none are that serious.

one thing is serious.

NY aced the fucking draft.

if the draft were held today Knox and Robinson might both be top 10 picks.

[kiiidcarter8]

Miles Bridges looking every bit the top ten guy...

But its early

[bodiddley]

Embiid went for 39 & 17.
Took 23 FT'.
Now that's a game!

DET started the season with 4 W's; followed by 4 L's.
As usual they have a weak bench.
And their starting lineup seems shaky.
At least Blake is competing.

EK and FF are not remotely enough in value to landing Wall.

This is a fantasy proposal without at least one unprotected lottery pick going back to the Wiz.

IMO the market for a player like Wall is deeper than you imagine with more than a few teams interested in a  AS-pg.

In any case Chip will be happy.

[chipstern]

A gift that keeps giving.

Phil Jackson. 

Remember the JR/Iman trade that got us Lance Thomas. 

Not much of a haul, eh?

Well, the good news is that Phool copped Cleveland's 2019 pick. 

The bad news? 

Phool traded that pick to Orlando for Kyle O'Quinn. 

Orlando has the right to swap picks and take the better of our two #2 picks. 

And next summer they can choose between Cleveland's #2

OR...

Houston's. 

To be a Knick fan is to suffer.

G league now on twitch. Nets dominated up front. Monster game for Allan Williams 22-18, Jenkins scored 23 for lil knix who lost 114-105.

Some of Jackson's finer moments.  O'Quinn was O'Kay for us.

[facilitatorn]

For the summer of 2019, assuming the Knicks find a way to be paying Trier Robinson money for as long as he’ll take, signing Vonleh for around 8 mil per, giving Lance his 1.5 mil prearranged buyout, and KP’s cap hold, we’ll be at 66-68 mil in salary on the books heading into the beginning of next season with rights to the following players,

Mitch
KP Vonleh
Knox Dotson
Hardaway Lee
Frank Trier Mudiay

A first and second round pick

We could give an enormous contract, extend KP, sign our draft picks and still have The biannual exception later in the process when team’s have hard time justifying paying guys they like at positions where they are committed to other guys and still be well under the tax threshold.

In the meantime, we’re surprisingly fun to watch and often competitive sometimes even against more polished, complete, and talented teams.

[facilitatorn]

Victor Oladipo and the Pacers pulled out a gritty one vs. the Celts.

Baynes shooting 3’s as well as he does makes quite a difference for how the C’s look.

[facilitatorn]

Suns release Tyson Chandler. He is looking to sign on with Lakers. McGee & Chandler is a very consistent very effective tandem on a team full of lob throwers.
