Official NY Knicks 2021 preseason

[Upptempo]

I’d only do it if Lavine signs an extension as a contingency to the trade.

I'm okay with that. Obviously wouldn't wanna lose draft capital for a rental. But if a first and a second plus any combination of Knox, Burk, Rivers, Frank, etc gets him you do it. Only untouchable pieces would be Mitch, Quick, and RJ. anyone else can be out

Trade the house for Doncic. Make it happen.

 

[ballinsam23]

Cuban would never trade him.

Also there’s no point in trading for Lavine if we gotta trade Randle.

 

[floodarea]

So basically the Mavs (in a panic move) could release the protection on the ‘23 pick they owe us and gain the ability to trade their ‘27 pick right??

Sounds good to me

Also there’s no point in trading for Lavine if we gotta trade Randle.

i agree with you. it could even end up being a bigger payday for lavine too

Not mad at all

 

[ihust1e]

i hated redickhead when he was a dukie

but i could let by gones be bye byes

 

[naijaboy]

So build his trade value by playing him less, pretty smart. No one is checking for Kev.

[Mister Meaner]

Thibbs runs a tight ship & minutes be hard to come by. Gotta play consistent though, kid.

He’ll be ight somewhere else with more opportunity. Everyone drafted before RJ ain’t safe, except Mitch.

 

[ballinsam23]

I don’t think Obi should be in the rotation over Knox.

Knox has no value. We'd be lucky to get a 2024 second rounder for Knox. I'm giving Obi the benefit of a doubt that he'll improve with time and become productive but if he doesn't, the trio of top 10 picks of Frank, Knox, and Obi would go down in history as probably the worst stretch in history. 3 of 4 picks would be worthless before their rookie deals expired.

 

[don ramon]

granted, i've contributed to the "he sucks" call for various knicks prospects, but it can be harsh the way some of these players get treated. you just see their opportunities slipping from their hands with every additional game the team plays while they remain on the bench. i feel really bad whenever a young player doesn't make it in the nba

 

[floodarea]

Imagine if we could get Lavine for Obi

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Imagine if we could get Lavine for Obi

Even if Lavine pulled a Sprewell on Billy D , I don't think you getting him that cheap

Not a simple swap ofc but as a centerpiece with other garbage

 

[Upptempo]

Only way you can swap Obi for Lavine is if it's in the Dunk Contest

 

[floodarea]

Luke Kornet revenge game tonight

 

[ballinsam23]

I need Obi to drop minimum 25-10 tonight. He's the centerpiece in this fake trade.

 

[keko jones]

Payton ... my god. ******* dumpster fire man.

 

[naijaboy]

It's laughable that elfrid play never gets him out the rotation, just don't understand what all these coaches love about him especially if we are running the offense through RJ and Randle anyways.

 

[zack15]

It's amazing how much better we are when Quickley is on the floor.
