One fan of a thread does not constitute the base. I'd say Triple wants to have a discussion than it being a bonafide position.
Knick fans are starphuchers and play on broadway. The team does real well at the gate because of this. If winning is important he'll stay with the rebuild.
If not, I'll never see a chip in my lifetime again.

Correct. This thread doesn't speak for the entire base. But there's a component of the base that simply cares more for instant gratification and seem to value first round exits higher than long term plans. For the most part these people can't or won't acknowledge that we are actually building the team from ground up and we are two-fifths of the way there under Phil who had one stinking first round pick to use in his 3 years. We also have a supporting cast of decent role players and you can make the case for keeping Lee which would mean we are three-fifths of the way there.

All this bitching about undermining the coach, and going to the media and this thread is basically NOISE. I think Hei Hei should really go peck rocks 😃

This thread is actually the opposite of instant gratification. But sure the team is about to turn the corner...just like the last 15 years...

NOW the general opinion is that the team needs to rebuild thru the draft with KP at the heart of it. We've got to see what happens in this draft and summer moves before even considering the notion of trading KP. It's just WAY too early.

Sorry to offend your sensabilities...people actually make fun of Knick fans because they think they have a great team every year aND that they just need1 more piece, when in reality the teams are a mess. The fans cheer the trading of draft picks for bad contracts because knick fans overvalued the players on the team. Kp will be good, but it's foolish to think he's priceless. Why not explore what you can get for him? I don't understand outrage when you don't even know the other side of the equation. This close mindedness also has me disappointed in the fan base.

Apology accepted.

So what kind of trades should we be considering?? What wall of conceptual alternative awesomeness that can provide the enlightenment you speak of?
Do tell us of this vision you have!!!
