Which be better long term than having him
you mean so we can have another lottery pick that we don't play, don't develop, turn on, and consider a bust?

Not in this upcoming draft
You get Scoot or Vic it’s a franchise changer
We havent gotten a top 2 pick since Ewing. Lots of a luck involved here which we dont have.
You tank well enough and the data adds up
You’d think the league wants the best prospect since Bron in NY but we will never know it seems.
League doesnt care about the Knicks anymore. Probably havent since Ewing. We never moved up in the draft one time and most of the time moved down. They didnt even award us Zion or Ja and we had the worst record as a franchise probably ever.
When it comes to the Knicks the data doesnt matter.
noAny way we could swing a move for one of them?
How would y'all feel about someone like Zach Lavine? He's disgruntled in Chicago and got benched in the 4th recently and was pissed about it. Anthony Edwards is similarly frustrated. Any way we could swing a move for one of them?

Exactly.
Tanking is a PROCESS. Years.
Can’t just tank for one year and expect results.
But that’s exactly what we do.
Then we sign mediocre players who keep us in NBA purgatory with 10-14th picks.
It’s a cycle that never stops because Dolan wants to fill seats and keep us semi-competitive.
Been trying to tell some of these fans to stop bashing heads against the wall but Knicks nation is full of drama queens so what can u do?NY doesn’t know a proper rebuild with actual kids developing in their system. That **** takes time. Growing pains come with lots of Ls and not much winning; but the org/Thibs seem to think they can do both at the same time. The fans gonna complain either way so just telling them “we’re in it to win it” until they really are makes sense.
Philly actually had a process that involved proper drafting and development. I'm not seeing a lot of strides here.There’s a reason Philly called it, “THE PROCESS” - our fans/front office can’t seem to comprehend it smh
And that’s the struggle that this coach is having to deal with. They just signed dude & now he’s supposed to sit?I think Sims is pretty decent right now and is good on defense.... He will get better with more playing time... I think its time to bench Hart and replace with Sims
Meh Philly's "process" was a failure
2013: Michael Carter Williams
2014: Joel Embiid
2015: Jhalil Okafor
2016: Ben Simmons
2017: Fultz
2018: Zhaire Smith
In 6 years they drafted mostly busts relative to their draft position. They landed 1 guy (Embiid) who kept them relevant since, but nothing to show for it anyway.
No no.
This is not a failure. They got in a position to make the picks.
That’s all you can ask for.
It’s up to front office and scouting to pick well.
