One of the worst drafts in Knicks history and we've had many.

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.


Can't say I've been following the lead up to the draft, so I can't be that disappointed about missing this or that player, but it seems clear that right now, Leon Rose is in the Thibs "live and die with the veterans" camp. For the most part, I don't think TT wants anything to do with developing a young player.

I been looking at the Pistons. The amount of young talent and cap space is crazy.

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.

Yeah but those are like facts and stuff. The group think is that we should have drafted another mediocre wing at 11 instead of actually getting in a position to sign an actual pg plus acquiring picks in a better double draft

So rather than just drafting Duren at 11, they traded 11 for three conditional (14+) picks in 2023, two of which are perennial lotto teams. We trade the only one that seems likely to convey next year to Charlotte with our 2023 2nd (essentially a double draft 1st) and 2 other meaningful seconds.

All for 15mm of cap space that costs us our MLE and Biannual (15mm of exception space)?

This FO is retarded.

So we are gerting that 2025 first the pistons got in the grant trade too. So walking away with 3 firsts and cap space (albeit protected picks)

Thanks. Thought I saw we traded down for Duren then traded him with Kemba.


This is going to be a complicated night. Will figure who's in NY tomorrow when the dust settles!

$15 mil cap room plus two future first round picks in next years draft which is better than this years underwhelming draft

They suck @$$

We still get MLE after signing a PG and resigning Mitch
