well he's not exactly using it in a derogatory term, whenever your force to do something you really didnt want to do, we call it rape right?

Like buying a $50 pair of shoes for a $100, you were rape, completely taking advantage of, suckered, hood winked, ect

It doesnt sound like many of them are jumping at the chance to play with melo either. Obviously porzingis needs time to develop. Basically cap space is our only negotiating tool but other teams also have space and better situations

thats why the tanking made zero sense, the hiring of fisher made zero sense..

WHAT? You do realize that we already could have the foundation of a new team because of the draft right? That draft was the best thing to happen to this franchise. If you strike out in FA you can still have a future. I just don't understand this kind of thinking at all.

the point is that it ain't all just peaches

did you ever consider that players may not want to play for Phil or Fish? And perhaps players are not excited about playing with Melo?

I don't get why the heck anyone would want to come here. No clue. You come here and you are tarnished. Tyson escaped to some degree but most players leave after they are crushed.

I think a lot of you would say no. They don't want to deal with the headaches that come with NY. The media is unforgiving here a lot of these guys don't really want any part of it.

exactly why we need to continue build through the draft. Porzingis can develop without anymore intense pressure. Phil has to find a way to get a first rounder we lost in the terrible bargs trade

and how should he do that?

nix i like you but you gotta stop trying to convert people to think exactly like you. Everyone has a right to different opinions and outlooks. Knicks1248 is a passionate fan and his points are valid

Yeah and I gave my opinion. Why are you so concerned with my posting? You're turning into a stalker!!! What did I say that was incorrect? If KP and Jerian turn out to be really good players that was a great thing for this team. So why would we not be happy about this draft? Regardless of FA this team has some young talent with great upside. That part of this process is just fine. I don't care what kind of crazy point you could come up with having top young talent is a good thing. How do you refute that?
