We need some entertainment and Lance going apeshyte would certainly qualify. Not to mention him going wild in his hometown. His contract is cap friendly enough where he is literally always going to be tradeable. What the hell roll the dice. Maybe Lance will scare Melo into passing more.

And hey, if he does put it all together he'll be our best player. By far. Ive alway railed against the Knicks acquiring knucklehead projects and praying they put it all together here but in this case there is enough of an escape hatch (very reasonable contract) to roll the dice.

and what would you give up for him?

To me the Hornets are looking to get out of his contract and NY has plenty of expirings. I am not high on ThJR but if they want him then fine. They would need to include a couple of second rounders and maybe Bismack but I am not sure he would do anything here because he rebounds and blk shots.

Pacers said they wanted TWO first round picks for taking him off the Hornets hands. That's the kind of value he has at the moment! Yikes!

lol, we are voided of any leadership, and you want to bring in another knuckle head, with no high character vets on the roster, a guy who can't shoot a lick..please we don't lack talent, we lack sense

Knicks get:
Rondo, lance, bass

Celtics get:
Calderone and bargs

Charlotte get:
Jr and our dalembart

Defense would be nice, but a team with rondo and lance's abysmal shooting would fail.

What course is that?

Draft high, very high.
Sign a premium FA with cap.

Want to go with Lance, melo and Rondo?
