Yes. Keep Morris.

The problem with waiting is that its unfair to Miller. It means holding onto and showcasing trade bait instead of transforming the team and playbook.

IMO, move Randall, Portis, Knox, DSJ, Payton, and Ellington.

And for the right deal, move a FRP.

Time to start winning.

See what miller can do first. Then, if we’re still stinking, see what you can get for players- don’t move any until you confer with them- they did sign here, some wanted to be here- but probably didn’t sign for this bs.

Forget trade value. Get the team playing well.

That means benching Randle because he doesn't fit with Morris or Mitch.

So Taj and Randle flip from starters to bench.

Morris starts at PF. Mitch at C. How it should be.

Randle is signed for a while so we can be patient.

How bout DSjr to the Lakers for Rondo and the Elephant Man’s bones? Its more entertaining then watching DSjr with no lift and Rondo will either make Frank or destroy him.

If it's destruction you're looking for, how about Barrett, Frank and Mitch for Jimmy Butler.

One player to pay close attention to is Terry Rozier. I can definitely see our Front Office make a play for him. He was on the Knicks radar last summer before he was traded for Kemba Walker and I read somewhere that he really wanted to come here.

Graham has exploded on the scene and his play may make Rozier and his contract expendable. Factor in DSJ is from North Carolina, and Jordan is the one calling the shots, it kind of makes sense why both front offices will think about this trade. Of course, we would have to include another player or a give them back one of their second round picks.

Rozier wanted to be Knicks player, he has talked about it publicly. My guess is that he also tried to express that during free agency last year when the Knicks could have gotten him for free but opted not to. Not sure why Knicks FO would revisit this

I want no parts of Rozier....My hopes are that any trades that we make going forward is to collect assets (picks and or young players on very short deals). With that said, our pg situation has been a weak spot all year. I'm saying it will happen, but wouldn't be surprised if one front office approaches the other...

Don't they owe all their picks to OKC?

I like him as well, but why would he want to stay after this season? He's not young so why dwindle away on a bad team for your remaining years near the peak of your career? I think he signed knowing he could be moved if things didn't go so well to a playoff level team who isn't a huge free-agency destination and as a result can afford to overpay (read: Detroit)

Also, you sure you wanna sign him to a multi-year deal, overpaying and eating cap space, limiting flexibility for years, next summer for a team that is not going to be good anytime soon?

According to thankathon they have both pics this year but between 25 and 30, which is still good for Morris

I dont know but he would look good next to Mitch, shooting, rebounding, good enough defense.

Wooten looks like a keeper. Hopefully a roster spot opens up for him.

Yes. Having Wooten back Mitchell and Gibson is a minor tweak to the roster with high upside. It means teams get no respite from the rim protection and defense of Mitchell.

It allows Gibson to move to the PF slot in some capacity. Just hardens that frontcourt even more.
