IF they do I still wouldn't go after Love in a trade because Those future 1st will probably not be lottery picks and if I'm Minny I want young talent or unprotected 1st rd picks.

What I would do is trade for non-max secondary players to fill out the team. Try to pry Afflalo with a 1st and Hardaway Jr then try to get Ilyasova and Middleton with another 1st. That's two players for less than max money which would leave room to grab the right player in FA when STAT comes off the Cap.

You think that Affalo is worth Hardaway + a first??

My personal opinion is that he is only worth a 1st but I am not sure that gets him. What do you think? Maybe they would Like Hardaway Jr and Oladipo to grow up together like Wall and Beal. Oladipo first season is more similar to Westbrook but it just depends on what they think of Ola.

I like Affalo but if I'm giving away a first round pick and a yute, it better be for a more impact player like lowry.

so here is what phil is thinking ....

I see Afflalo as an impact player because of his defense and his shooting plus he is cheap. Look what the Pacers sent the suns for Scola. Nba trade market is fickle. You just never know.

Edit:

On further review. Mills didn't give up a similar pkg(reportedly) for Lowry so I doubt he would do it for Afflalo but if Orl Would do Hardaway or a pick for Afflalo then I would do it. Orl needs to capitalize on Arron because he is getting old and they can build a young nucleus.

Hardaway Jr probably has real value around the league. He is probably the 3rd or 4th best sg in the last 3 years of the draft.

Klay
Beal
Hardaway Jr.

Butler would be above Tim too if he is at SG but other than that the young SG well is dry.

So it would be a 1st rd pick or nothing for Afflalo.

As long as there is no picks involved, perhaps. I would like to use our pick on Love since that is why we did not use it on lowry.

Best deal for Love comes out of Golden state.... They could send Klay and Lee for Love and Shabazz...Two ucla guys. That's a fair trade....Lee and Rubio with Kay and Kevin Martin is a nice reload for them.

Love is 25!

Lets try drafting and getting our own Affalo's and good players instead of trading for them.

Maybe some of those Minny guys like Pec, Rubio and K-Martin are overrated and they were in the West.

If Minny was in the east and made it to the playoffs and went on a little run like the Wizards -- we'd probably all be drooling over K-Love. I mean his game seems perfectly built for the playoff wars in the paint.

Starting to talk myself into some Love.

Love, shockingly, is only 25 and has the 3rd best PER in the league behind Durant and LeBron (not the 2nd). That should be more than enough to talk yourself into some Love. As I've said a dozen times, the only thing that could be better is if we trade for Rudy Gay to from a Gay-Love tandem in the frontcourt. It'd be great if we could push the ball aboard the Gay-Love Express.

lOVE IS ALSO 25, has been in the league for 6 years and never made the playoffs.. love is a good player, although I think most are overrating this dude... If I were the rockets would I want love? yes, that makes sense.. but If I were a team rebuilding, or a team that needs to rebuild like the knicks, do I give up picks and young players for love? No! not as his price tag.. the dude already gave away that he wants a max deal..

Knicks and knicks fans need to get away from this thinking.. the quick fixes with guys who have not won... had we had our own pick this year who knows, we could be drafting a 1-A (as you guys call it) type talent...

The knicks and their fans want to skip the process of methodically building a team.. instead we shortcut our way only to find out we are further back than we started.. and then we justify it somehow by saying a straight line isn't always the fastest way from point A to point B, and make up reasons why... go figure...

Agreed. With Love people are making the same common mistake they always make. Overrating a player who happens to put up numbers on a bad team and thinking that he's a like 2 option. He is not a player you build around. Nice Borderline 2nd/3rd option on a good team. But if you listen to New York media he is a franchise max player.

Sharif Abdul Rahim anyone? There's a reason he barely played in the Olympics. Sure his numbers look great but you have to look last them. He's going to get $20mil+ from someon. Holefuy not the Phil Jackson Knicks

Knicks should be looking to draft the next 1 or 2 option. You rarely get those guys through free agency. Sometimes you look out in a trade too. Drafting is the cheapest and most effective in touring things around quickly in a big way. I'm hopeful that Phil sees this. He win 11 rings with Jordan and Kobe after all

Barely played in the olympics?? I think you are talking about Tyson. Love played about as much as Kobe an Melo and played very well. He scored 11.6 points on 63% shooting! And he avg'd 7.6 rebounds in 17 minutes!

Minnesota having an awful team that can't shoot (other than him) is not his fault. You want him to put up better numbers? pass more? rebound more?

Play defense better, now that is the only argument.

Offensively, he is a max player in every way and one of the best rebounders this league has seen in a very long time.

so here is what phil is thinking ....

You rather draft an unkown, and hope he turns out respectable as oppose to a sure thing..suppose we draft a greg oden type or some below avg players we thought had potential...then what would do?

You draft again the following year

Only in New York people have zero patience for developing talent

15yrs and counting of being laughing stocks. Maybe it's time to do things differently

the 99 team was pretty much all non knicks drafted players except for the aged Ewing.

I am a big proponent of the draft and we have phucked ourselves again and again but if 25 y/o Love is a available for our first rounder 2018 and a few of our other stiffs then I am in big time.

Love is doing things that are unprecidented and he is still getting better!

Problem is that Celtics are probably willing to part with the #5 pick plus players so we don't stand a chance.

You can't stick to one philosophy, each move has to be judged for itself and must smart and logical.

exactly guns. I am not saying love isn't a good player.. just not for the knicks at his price.. to me He is not a franchise player.. often that mistake is made with guys like him. He is going to get paid, but as you said, hopefully not from the knicks..

Look at how quick the wizards built that team.. now I know it may not seem like it was quick, but it was.. they drafted wall, made a few trades, got nene, ariza, gortat, and drafted beal.. now they have a young back court set for the next 5-8 years... it can be done!!

I agree but I don't think teaming Love up with Melo is logical

Probably not a good fit but if Melo walks (which he probably will) and we can build around Love, it may be a very good fit.

unprecidented, yet what is the impact? one thing he isn't doing is elevating his team.. and if he can't do that, then I pass.... If I were the knicks.. another team, a better team, in a better situation may be a better fit...

The guy is a good, not great player.... He is a jump shooting big man... and lets be fair, he has had his share of injuries as well.. his teams lack of success is just not them being bad.. but being injured and he has been a culprit..

you can probably can count on your fingers the amount of players that are still with the team that drafted them..and im talking the last 5 ys.

You draft a player, sit through 2 to 3 losing season trying to develop them, coach gets fired, player wants out of a losing situation and starts talikng about bouncing without the franchise getting compensation, so make a quick trade for dfart picks and start the sam sht all over again
