Hopefully. Hope he can also develop into a basketball player and not just an athletic freak who dominates on physicality alone. We all are seeing Mitch and DSJr

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...

Randle for Rozier works perfect Money wise... one for one. Knicks need the scoring boost at guard. We gave excess at forward. Trade Randle, slide Morris promote either Trier or Knox to a starter and give Portis more minutes

I think Hornets like their 2 PG combination. Mix in the 2 young upcoming forwards of Bridges and Washington and thats a nice little nucleous they have there. Their interest in Randle would be to dump a Bismack or MKG contract. And hope the prodcution upgrade would turn into a playoff picture. We would of course require their first round draft pick which would probably be top 10 if not lotto protected for the 2020 draft.

On the flip side with 3 future draft picks from other teams. That can possibly be manuevered to land a better fitting piece and talent upgrade.

I think the reason Terry is succeeding now is because he really isn't a point guard. He doesn't have to worry so much about creating for himself and others. I don't see the need to trade for him until we see what Trier has first.

From when we drafted Frank. I felt the team should have looked to collect players that could guard their positons, shoot the catch and shoot 3, and put the ball on the floor to create a little for their teammates. Which is why I felt SGA should have been targeted at the draft. Should have also looked harder at Brogden to go along with the RJ pick. Rolling out about 5 deep with SGA,Brogden,Barrett,Frank,Dotson. Thought Randle was better at creating than he displayed here so far. But its very possible with that collection of guards and wings. Him working as a finisher and creater on the back end with the extra pass. Would be a better fit, granted his defense wouldn't be ideal.

With another premium draft pick likely and cap space again likely. This should be the blueprint they should look to follow imo. If we are lucky enough to net Anthony Edwards and target VanVleet as a FA.

Markennan SUUUUUCKS the only reason you think he doesn't is because he always has good games against the knicks.

He is shooting just as bad as frank (if not worse) his defense is terrible, can't rebound or block shots, he is slow AF, missed 30 games last season with all sorts of injuries (played like 52 games), and had a brutal start to the season.

He make randles look like an MVP..are you kidding me, he's a 7 foot Knox

Sorry if I offended any creak heads out there!

It's not that they'd see him as a bust, it's just that their second year PG has been way way better than they ever thought so they can get rid of Rozier and get another position filled instead. I don't want him at all but I fear Mills might go for him as they wanted him in free agency.

I could see Julius being a useful 6th man down the line.

So that we would have 4 PGs on the roster?

I'm giving them DSJ aswell in return for a 2nd rounder if this trade is done. I'm not even saying that I'm onboard with it but I think that there are trades out there that could make us better off even marginally.
