I know our options are limited and we really need guards but I'm not a big fan of Trey. I don't even think he's a terrible shooter at all, he just has really poor shot selection. On a short reasonable deal I might take a chance but otherwise i'd rather spend money elsewhere.

I don't think he should be a "target" but I wouldn't mind settling for him on a short term deal Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

They are good players... why is it so hard to say that. They could fit in a rotation. Mack actually was very good as a starter. Trey was in the doghouse for whatever reason, but won a few games for Utah with his jumps shot.
I think we're not in the market for either player. We already have two 23 year old point guard that are 6'5" and 6'6".... I think we're ok on that front Subscribe to my Podcast https://youtube.com/c/DiehardknicksPodcast

Lin makes perfect sense. he shouldn't have left to begin with. but he was run outta town by dolan and Lin would never return to the knicks. besides there would be a lot of pressure to live up to linsanity Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs.

Trey was in the doghouse for whatever reason, but won a few games for Utah with his jumps shot. That's just negative. We finally saw Grant make that next step in April. He should be ready to build on that. It's more about confidence with him. Wrotenis the opposite. It's already reported by a few players that Wroten is back to normal.

I think Lin is far better. I'd actually be willing to pay Lin pretty decent money.

I dont want to see the Knicks possibly going into the playoffs without a PG who has some playoff experience and can contribute. Even if Calderon is around and has a good year, I would rather the Knicks find a veteran PG on a short term rental who can shore up the lack of experience (especially playoff experience) at PG, as insurance.
I know the Knicks arent getting to the finals for the next few years unless there is some kind of trade that pays big dividends. Doesn't mean that the Knicks shouldn't try to give KP /Grant/Wroten/Hernangomez as much playoff experience as they can handle. It also keeps Melo interested and focused, something to play for other than just helping develop players, which he has done willingly. Right now we dont have a good deal of experience at PG. |

(by the way, its the same way i felt about KDurant when he hurt is foot and embiid also when he rehabbed. me personally i just need to see that they can handle NBA action - until then Wroten is a question mark in my eyes) and we all know jose is bad. lol Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs.

Burke's an interesting name. I remember talking about him back in Feb. when there was a rumor that Ty Lawson could be traded to the Jazz for him. Was thinking maybe we could've made a play for him back then.. He can score, he's young and he's got upside--that's what makes him attractive. Took guys like Chauncey Billups & Kyle Lowry a few years before their careers really took off and both needed a change of scenery before that happened. I don't think Burke's a FA though--think he has a yr or two left on his deal, no? What would you trade to get him? A package built around Grant maybe?? I'd prefer not to move Hernangomez if possible. 6'11" 250 lb C/PF with an already advanced post game, plus he can shoot a little too and rebound. I think we hold onto Willy for now.
