drdetroit Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Knicks like always finding ways to lose So? I hope the Knicks finish 10-72. I want a top 2 pick in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdetroit Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Good god of course not. If we get boned in the lottery I'm not trading 4-6 for him either. I wouldn't trade 1 or 2 pick for Cousins which is essentially Okafor or Towns. Now the 4 or 5 pick however. Kings have 18 wins in the west which means they'd have 28 wins in the east which is good enough for the 6th seed. Cousins doesn't just get points(23 ppg) and rebounds (12 rpg). He also blocks shots. He is a headache however but it is so hard to get a big man these days. Moot point. Kings are closing in on George Karl and can offer Cousins the max.

drdetroit Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 ESPN'S lottery machine is up. http://espn.go.com/nba/lottery2015/mockdraft NYK currently in 2nd but still close to top seed so need to shut Melo down to get that 25% chance. Knicks need to be in top 4 at worst with Russell now expanding the franchise picks from 3 to 4. Knicks are 4-6 last 10 games that is way too competitive. This organization never learns. I remember in '03 the Knicks had the worst roster in the league and Lebron about to enter the nba draft and what do they do? Play hard and win 37 games and almost make the playoffs unbelievable. Shut Melo down PLEASE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Once he pimps his brand this weekend he's done. I agree. He's done after the All-Star Game. I think it was critical this last little 3 game losing streak because it put them back into the top lottery seed position. The top pick is critical not only to increase the chance at getting Okafor at 25% but it locks them into a top 4 choice so they are guaranteed to come out the draft with one of the 4 franchise prospects in Okafor, Towns, Mudiay and Russell.

SMC Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 He's more Glenn Robinson to me, but there's also Arod similarities too...awful contract, breaking down...not really even sure if he's still on the team. The main concern is if JAX has a plan, which is suspect right now. Melo's best situation is when other players are the star and he can just be himself and score. Okafor and Russell can be that star which allows Melo to be in his own bubble. I don't think Towns and Mudiay can be that role. The thing is, once Melo has his surgery he's gone from the public eye really. It's your "not really even sure if he's still on the team" notion. What's going to dominate the Knicks is the race to the top lottery seed, the lottery selection show, then the draft. Melo would have essentially disappeared from February to August. If the Knicks get Okafor or Russell, they're immediately going to be anointed the savors because no one in FA is a franchise changer. So, now, in training camp, the dynamic is going to be completely different. Okafor/Russell are going to be top of the jersey selling list and be the golden boy for the media. There's going to be a tier 2 FA on the team. Then Melo is going to come back. This won't be Linsanity Part 2 because Lin had no street cred. Okafor/Russell will because of their lofty draft status. Will Melo try to pull the "He's the star" nonsense, or will he take a David Robinson approach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding Okafor or Towns also makes the Knicks a more attractive sport for a top free agent. Jax has a plan and it's to rebuild with a top pick and cap room - the only way to rebuild in the nba.

Hitting on a top 3 pick changes a franchise. There's 4 potential franchise changers in the draft and Knicks have a shot at them if they have the worst record.

Miss Lonelyhearts Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I agree that such a plan is the way to go. I'm just hoping he sticks with it. The Knicks aren't getting back in the game with one swing. It's not a sound strategy in the first place and the people we have implementing it are dumb. This is fine because it's the NBA and almost everybody else is dumb too, so there is enough low-hanging fruit out there that the old-fashioned way still works. Look at Atlanta. Sefolosha makes 4 a year, Korver makes 6, Millsap two years 19M, and we could have had Teague for Shumpert at one point not terribly long ago.

Good point, but I believe Atlanta may prove to be a mirage. If they lose in the first or second round of the playoffs, especially to the Cavs or Bulls, no one will be talking about how great Atlanta is. They'll be talking about how Atlanta needs a star player. As for the Knicks, until the lottery selection show, all I have is hope. If they get one of the top 2 picks (which means Okafor or Russell IMO), then we'll see where they're headed. The top of the draft tends to make teams idiot-proof if there are bona fide selections like the top 4 prospects this year. It may not pan out, but there is no Anthony Bennett/Kwame Brown-esque pick this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearing space is fine, not trading away picks is better, but I'm not so sure this FO has a good handle on acquiring assets. All the sh*t Jax has gotten rid of this year and not one thing in return. We traded Chandler and the return is Calderon and Larkin. We held off on trading Shump for so long and in the end the only thing we got for him was someone taking JR off our hands. These really don't seem like moves that required any savvy or thought, and there's no long term interest served with the returns. What makes it even weirder is that he appears to be living in this fantasy world where second rounders have some sort of value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every deal Jackson has made so far reeks of absolute laziness and disinterest. Isola summarized it pretty well on ESPN radio the other day when he compared Jackson's returns to what other teams pulled in for Mozgov, etc. Btw, every time Carmelo says that he's playing in the All Star Game for "duh fanz," I'd like to see him produce a testimonial from one fan that actually wants Melo to play in the ASG.

drdetroit Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Knicks fans overrating shumpert. We're lucky we got someone to take jr smith's stupid contract. Shumpert is a free agent after this season if he's so good you can get him back. Shump was occasionally a good defender and below average offensively. I dunno how Phil was supposed to get goran dragon or Lamarckism Aldridge for him but ok. The chandler trade was Phil putting up the white flag and zeroing in on a top 3 pick. Calderon is garbage I really hope he's not the starting pg next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't personally know any fan that wants him to play in ASG, but a couple 100 thousand fans voted him to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
