hahaha same here! That's the dumbest hairdo I've ever seen, it has its own weather system for christsakes! Its like a mixrture between Elvis and a fked up Afro.

I thought he stunk last year, but he's shown he has some good game this year and I wouldn't be adversed to trading for him and getting Noah off the decks, that would be a +move after yesterdays horror.
keep calm and switch on defense.

The quiet Knicks have been getting a lot of interest in sharpshooting forward Doug McDermott.

1st rounder for Doug E Doug?

Now that sounds promising, because I am not sure that we should resign him (he does so little besides being an adequate weapon on offense), so if something interesting gets offered, I would go for it. Should be another young player though or what do you guys think? I guess if we acquire one more second rounder, MSG will burn.

Don't think he has that much value.

I agree move McDermott. Keep Beasley.

I don't think he can land a first rounder. If they contemplate on trading him, they won't get more than a second rounder or a young under productive player.

apparently, no one is giving up a 1st rounder for Tyreke Evans... so it doesn't look good for us to get one for Lee or McD or anyone else for that matter
In Thibs we trust.

I read somewhere that we search for a Terry Rozier before he becomes Terry Rozier. Not his position, just the type of acquisition. Young and undervalued player. Would be nice to grab such a guy for once.

@NYPost_Berman

Sixers are looking for a shooter at the deadline. Have mulled McDermott. They still have bevy of second-rounders.

Yup. And that climate is also something to keep in mind. If we can add young players instead, fine, go for it. If nothing is out there, let's keep our assets until the draft and try again. Obviously I hope we still get something done, but we don't need to press it just to do something.

My expectation going in was that we clear the center logjam and do nothing else, so everything more that happens would already be a plus.

i still want courtney lee gone. Him+Beasley+THJ is just too much firepower to get us to the bottom 6 in the draft

Understood, but I think that has more to do with what the 7 really bad teams behind us (or in front in the tank race) do, than with what we do. But we'll see. Would be nice for Lee and us if a contender makes us a good offer, because he could certainly bring something to the table for such a team. But I like him a lot, so I wouldn't be mad if he stays (which BTW, he said today, is what he wants).

Yep. I like this trade as well. Now let's get Jack off the team.

JJ will probably get bought out, he'd fit it in a contending club that needs depth
