Are they building a cohesive team that will be able to compete for championships or are they building a team that lacks synergy and floor balance--did not address our biggest defeciencies and just added to replication in the post and on the wing?

By the way how many IT picks are going y-y?

How many 40% 3 point shooters do we have?
Who will be stopping the opposing 3 point shooters?
Did we address the frontcourt defense?
Do EC and Zach have skills that mirror each other quite a bit?
How slow did we just get in a league made for speed?
RIP Crushalot😞

^ Trading for Randolph was pretty low on moves I would've done if blindfolded.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

First, congrats to Briggs on calling Wilson Chandler. Your points here are valid. The trade was good talent wise, but not a good fit. Same with the pick.

I hope Isiah is better then I think. But I think his biggest deficiency is he doesn't seem concerned with how pieces fit together and seems so concerned with potential he ignores the negatives in the players he selects and how they fit with the rest of the team.

We add players without regard to strategy. That's the Isiah Thomas way.

NY actually have 2 teams inside one
Both can easily win 33 games
But together they will probably make 27

Knicks have a ton of flexibility to trade forwards for a shooting guard and can really see what is out there....what if they end up getting a sign and trade for Lewis? Lewis,Zach and Curry would be sweet

Isiah's strategy is clear: to trade for all the players I hate most in the league. Can Antoine Walker be far behind?

I used to want the team blown up, but now I think it's time I simply ignite my own head.

That would make sense to me- but if that deal was lined up, they would have announced it.

Can we get Jefferson for Zach?

He isn't the only one. Other than the guys on NBA TV analyst, other sport reporters are saying this is a good trade for the Knicks.

It's good because this will be the last step in distruction of what Knicks once was... and satisfied IT can finally go...
