Perhaps brad Stevens will know how to use Melo but I wonder about Pops. Would Pops want Melo? Spurs are chronic overachievers. Parker and Ginobli cooked, Aldridge not the prolific scorer he was and Green ain't shooting. So sure they need offensive help. But they are the epicenter of teamplay and i question if Pop would want slow footed Melo.
So let's say Phil wasn't GM. Say it's Donnie Walsh or someone who has demonstrated aptitude as a GM. Then imagine Pops coaching the Knicks. I think that a little tinkering here and there, some speed on defense, some added sharpshooters, they win. Perhaps I'm wrong yet I suspect the style of play that Phil wants and that Pops would instill, would not be in conflict. |

Why can't Melo be Phil's at least Phil Might get assets back. |

The only reason Melo has to go is because of Phil- and after this past season, I don't understand how any Knick fan can trust Phil's judgement. How can you defend the Noah signing? How can you defend the Rose trade? And then support Phil to continue to guide this franchise? And now the one thing everyone hangs Phil's hat on - drafting the future Franchise cornerstone, KP- is potentially undone by either KP rebelling or Phil trading him. So what positive contributions to this franchise has Phil made? And you CANNOT answer that he hasn't traded away any future first round picks- an empty chair could have done that. And come to think of it, if they had simply not made any moves and not had a GM and stayed the course, I think this team would be in better shape. |

Most were guys who had one foot outside NBA if not for our low standards. Imo, if Melo goes, we have no playoff starting caliber players. Lee woild be a back-up as he is too inconsistent and is better suited off the bench. KP is not able to guard his position....yet. But yeah, Phil did well. And with 2 more years of this, KP will want out in 2019. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020
