We won't be bad enough for a top 5 pick. If the season ended today, we would make the playoffs in the west. The focus should be on the 7-12 spots, which should still provide a good long-term starting player. De'Aaron Fox, Jonathan Isaac, OG Anunoby, Mile Bridges, Harry Giles, and Frank Ntilikina seem like players who might be in our range.

If Rose doesn't return or gets shipped out, I see melo eventually resting his shoulder- we could fall hard and fast in the standings |

Anyone who says there is talent later in the draft, we don't have to tank- I have one thing to say:
Stephon Curry Should have been a Knick - and yes, god knows this organization would have traded him. But, here was a rare case of the FO actually finding/wanting a talent, but winning just a few meaningless games and thus preventing us from being able to draft him. |

How many first round picks do we have as of today?
We are not bad enough to secure a high pick, a trade has to be made. |

one first round , two second rounders
i think we can get solid players like the french point guard frank ntitikila or a og anunoby and two euro stashes we will be ok in the draft |

A Pg who could defend well would be nice - feels we haven't had one since Charlie Ward and Chris childs

I love OG Anunoby for this team - I think he's an ideal guy to put next to KP - KP would be the 4/5 of the future, OG could be the 3/4 I'm in favor of building a team of long rangy guys at every position who can shoot it. Justin Holiday and KP are good fits. ¿ △ ?

my vote would be for de-aaron fox. get rid of jennings and draft this kid (who should be available). super freak john wall athlete who can defend and pass. 6-5 lefty PG
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
