Somewhere Frank Ntilikina's confidence just went sub-atomic.

He'll be gone soon enough, too, and like KP, with luck, get a chance to play for an actual coach.

I dont know.......

seeing Frank as the starting 2 guard now.

Oh....wait - thsat was if we had Monk.

I'm sure that, in the last few years, the Knicks management could have handled things worse.

But I have no idea how.

Truth is, after chatting with an NBA foot specialist a couple of years back who gave me odds regarding KP's career and injuries......I've never been comfortable with seeing him as some kind of a messiah.

But I always figured we'd get something more substantial for him if we let him go.

I like Cuban.

And he did fine here

But still much work to do there.

Knick fans have always overrated Porzingis.  The exit interview shit followed him.  It was a sign.

I dont fault KP for agreeing with me that a losing culture was simmering here - and speaking up abouyt it.  But he could have seen the positives......

Somewhere in this KP made it clear he was gone if given the option.  And the talk of Knicks liking Smith all along also didnt go away.....

What they decide to do with Frank will be interesting.  And will we renounce evryone?

Smith deal, by the way:

4.46 in 19-20
5.68 in 20-21

With DSJ as PG of the Future.. we don't have to place a bet on Mudiay's next deal.

I don't think this FO makes this trade without feeling like they have a good shot at Kevin Durant.

Enes Kanter came out recently saying someone mindblowing would sign here but he can't reveal who it is.

Who else could he be talking about?  Kevin is his former teammate.

Trey Burke has been mentioned as part of the deal now.  Makes sense.

Knicks with contracts for 19-20

Robinson
Ntlikina
Knox
Smith Jr
(the pick)

Smith acquisition would signal we will likely not be adding Marant. 

So...

who do we take at

2 - if Zion gone
3 - if Zion and Barrret gone
4 - if Zion, Barret, Marant gone
5 - if Zion, Barrett, Marant, Hachimura gone

Of course if we done get the 1, 2, 3....

we could deal our pick plus Frank to move up.  I dont think we would move Mitch or Knoxie.
