Just reporting what's going to happen. No big deal.

I'd want to go after Klay Thompson. I think he's an amazing player too.

It was two fed-up Knicks fans who purchased the billboard of Kevin Durant across from MSG.

What are you willing to pay Middleton and Harris? We all know Durant is a max player... but I wouldn't go anywhere near the max with Middleton and Harris and actually prefer to develop our own guys than signing those two on less they are on very cheap deals... which is highly unlikely...

we need to win games , not so much for the playoffs, but so KD comes here. Yeah, dude can't commit to GS?? whaaaaaat??? :o he loves playing in MSG cause it's like an "in door Rucker league"?? whaaaaat? and then he has the best most enjoyable quarter in his carreer? in MSG??? :hmm: of course he couldn't even come close to saying it, but as an expert in body language and non-verbal communication, I can say with 75% certainty, that KD, the best player in the league is tired of playing in Curry's house; he's coming! :drunk:

Am I the only one feeling KD's body language in the Garden? Kd is taking care of the rings in GS, but he's been accused of riding the coat-tails; that has to be really annoying for the best player in the league. His legacy carries an asterix, and he can blow that up by bringing a ring to the Knicks. As tank commander it might be hard for you to appreciate the need to win over 35 games just to make us appealing to KD. :LOL:

This is why you should have never fired me..

If you are Durant,or any other stud,do you really care if the Knicks win 35 games? Does it matter if you win 40 and get the 15th pick??

Or would you rather tank,get the number 1 pick with a healthy KP??

The last thing in the world you want to do is win some meaningless games and wind up with 35-40 wins and some shitty pick..

yes....get the #1 pick and whoever wants to roll with that player and KP....you deal with. KD is max...no one else is. no need for Tobias..Knox will be him in 2 years. Middleton maybe...Knox can be him if hes smart

Knicks can then go full LBJ and package the nunber 1 for a disgruntled all star to second or 3rd banana.

I prefer Kawhi Leonard over Kevin Durant. He is younger, he is better defensively, and he plays within the flow of the offense. If we get Durant, he will play undisciplined like his OKC days.

Steal Kawhi from Toronto!

commander, a two part question:
1) do you really think we are going to end up with a top 3 pick?
2? and if so, do you really think that would attract KD??

No, taowave you are still not ready to resume GM duties. The ONLY way to attract KD is to get into the playoffs. 8-)

I have some dumb logic. KD is getting constantly criticized that he can only win cause hes on a super team. Only way to prove that wrong would be to leave. If I was him I'd coast in GS. But I think he takes the criticism to heart and wants to prove people wrong

Whether or not he goes to NY is another story. But I think regardless of the Knicks record, the Knicks are looking attractive cause of Fiz and how Fiz has these guys playing beyond their talent level.
