WHAT? You do realize that we already could have the foundation of a new team because of the draft right? That draft was the best thing to happen to this franchise. If you strike out in FA you can still have a future. I just don't understand this kind of thinking at all.

nix i like you but you gotta stop trying to convert people to think exactly like you. Everyone has a right to different opinions and outlooks. Knicks1248 is a passionate fan and his points are valid

Yeah and I gave my opinion. Why are you so concerned with my posting? You're turning into a stalker!!! What did I say that was incorrect? If KP and Jerian turn out to be really good players that was a great thing for this team. So why would we not be happy about this draft? Regardless of FA this team has some young talent with great upside. That part of this process is just fine. I don't care what kind of crazy point you could come up with having top young talent is a good thing. How do you refute that?

you seem to twist words around. I stated many times having young talent and drafting is something i LOVE to do. I also stated many tines i want jordan or aldrige badly However im just trying to be fair about the possibility of getting those type of free agents to come here. You act like i want the knicks to fail. I want the knicks to win so ****ing badly but i try to keep it real as well

Look you interjected yourself into the situation and your statement is above. You accused me of trying to "convert people" but i'm just arguing my point. You bring up people having different opinions and all I did was express mine strongly.

With regards to you, I never twisted your words. You didn't actually say anything for me to twist. All you did was tell me not to say anything about what others post. If I disagree I have a right to say so. I provided my points but never challenged your fandom or how you feel about drafting players.

What you seem to be misunderstanding is when i'm making a rhetorical point and not specifically challenging you personally. My last two statements weren't just aimed at you since this wasn't a 2 person conversation. The statements were in general. I stand by those last two statements. How can "YOU" meaning anyone, refute the value of drafting top talent?

Phil put the team in position to get a high draft pick and he ended up with 3 prospects with high talent levels for this teams future. Tell me what was wrong about that?

you still are misinterpreting. The converting people was just a joke. In fact i have complimented your knowledge and positive attitude a few times.

No smiley face made it hard to read that as a joke. In the end this isn't really much of a disagreement. If we both agree that Phil did the right thing as it ended up with us getting 3 nice prospects for the teams future in this draft there's no problem. Regardless of how FA ends up.
