agreed

Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

So Lawson and dropping down 3 picks which we would still get one of WCS, Winslow, Kaminsky, Porzingis for our #4 pick and getting rid of Calderon and his contract isn't a good trade?? Hmmmmmmmmm that's a thinker to me and a trade i'd probably do.

Any pick 5-9 lands onr of the guys we talked about at 4.....its like we are still picking at 4.....and getting a vet PG.....while getting rid of Calderon. ....i see nothing wrong with that. But i doubt it happens.


We're assuming they would take Calderon. If MDA becomes their coach pretty sure he would not want Calderon, or do anything to help us out...

BUT- You figure MDA would want really want Mudiay at 4 if he was their coach and Mudiay was still there, so maybe he would do it.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

So now we're trading our #4 pick just to dump Calderon. That would be an EPIC fail by Jax IMO. I would have a hard time forgiving him for effing up that badly.

What is so friggin hard to understand about BPA? Sheesh.

I wanted Lawson after Curry went one pick before us

If we trade with Denver I'd prefer Faried

That dude (Lawson) is not a PG.
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

If we got Kaminsky and moved down 3 spots to swap Calderon for Lawson--thats not bad at all.

Yeah, the downgrade from Lawson to Calderon is a million times bigger than the downgrade from 4 to 7 in this draft.
Lawson just averaged 10 assists and 2.5 turnovers a game. That's amazing.

im not a fan of faried at all. highly overrated even tho nyc would love him
2016 draft will be as bad as the knicks will be next season

so id say no

No, I meant the downgrade we're forcing them to make at PG is a million times bigger than the one we have to make in the draft in this trade.

I agree. On a side note, I hate that he has the afternoon commute hours. I can only pick up the Fan in my car from October through March but I have a hard time listening to Francessa.

You're already saying Ugh and you don't even know what the trade would be.

Because I don't want Lawson period. He's played over 80 games in exactly one season as a pro and he's not a good 3 point shooter.

I don't want to trade the pick, at all. Period. I don't care what we may get in return because I'm sure we'd get screwed based on our history and phils trading skills and history so far don't inspire confidence. I'd much rather keep the pick and pray Mudiay or whoever becomes a cornerstone.

Faried is the sticking point. He has a big contract and I don't think he is worth the money. I guess moving Calderon helps.

offensive rebound machine and he is really only costing the knicks $5m if Calderon was dumped, less than $4m when you include THjr

lawson wouldn't be too much of an upgrade... he has the jr smith lifestyle... he doesn't take practice seriously either...

i don't get why ppl think he's good... he's league average by pg standards these days and if you account for defense he's probably a bit worse than that...
