The hell am I walking into?

I take all these reports right now with a grain of salt, but am I reading we are trading a lottery pick to dump an expiring $9M contract?

Will give benefit of doubt that there's more to it, but holy hell if true...

Gotta wait a few weeks to see how it all shakes out. If we stacking future picks there comes a time to cash it in.
Until then misery will prevail among us.

This organization is a joke. Different names, same incompetence.

Not exactly.

We traded the 11 for 3 future firsts

Then we traded one of thos future firsts and two future 2nds to get rid of Kemba for cap space.

So on net we ended up with 2 future firsts and cap space for 11, Kemba and some 2nds.

I think.

From the high of thinking we got Ivy to this. Just the life of a Knicks fan. All this just for a chance to sign Brunson. I am not even high on him especially at 25mil a year. Chances are he re-signs with the Mavs anyway and we are stuck with nothing.

Yeah

So to cap it off, front office makes dumb signings, then uses the draft to make lateral moves while cleanint up past mistakes to make room for future mistakes.

This is so tiring.

Probably what will happen.

Its ok. Maybe at some point in our lifetimes the Knicks will make real moves. Stay tunned

That seems high for 9mm but who we sign with it will matter.

Side note, lots of emotions for these kids. These are covid kids in high school and a path not known.

Those future 1st are conditional, could be a couple years away, devaluing them..also likely lottery protected, so we'll likely NEVER get a player of the caliber of who we'd pick with the #11 pick. We PAID to free cap space due to incompetence.

This... Rose po'd the crowd that is excited for the young rebuild for the crowd who wants a free agent, likely not going to make us any better and we'll AGAIN be struck with a bloaded contract, IF we even get one.

Could be picks from other teams that OKC was hoarding. Kemba 1st could be low pick this year? Stay tuned.
Why get pissed on lack of a story?

Did Detroit load up to trade for Ayton?? They still have the cap space.

Ok, just saw they are.

THEIR own mistake. No past tenure to blame. This front office officially sucks as its predecessors.
