We aren't getting a new president before free agency, so what happens now is on Mills.

Does Melo pull out his little black book again? CP3, Teague, Lowry, George Hill? A lot of PGs could be changing teams. We would need more cap space though.

It won't be a popular choice to go after big name free agents because a lot of people want to see us rebuild. I personally don't mind us going after guys, as long as we don't trade Porzingis, Willy, Ntilikina or future picks to get there. The best teams build with both the present and future in mind. You can rebuild while spending money to win now. We have a foundation of young players to build with. Anything else we do should be irrelevant to that.

I don't think Melo is going anywhere now. The core of Melo and KP is here to stay for the long haul. Whomever takes over eventually as Prez has a pretty good situation. A young star to build around, a couple other solid young players, and all of our draft picks, plus they can only go up from here. I hope whomever is hired can rebuild the relationship with the media, agents, and players. But in the meantime, Mills will look to make a free agent splash.

Who do you think is most likely going to be signed next week?

IF we go and sign over the hill players like Paul and Wade - I will be done with this team.

Ugh I hate to say it but it might be time to move to the Brooklyn Nets. For how bad they are, they look like they are doing things right since the Pierce/Garnett trade while I can't support what Dolan is doing after what has been done the past 15 years here.

The Knicks have 16 million in cap space. Not much will be done in free agency. I hope Rose isn't resigned.

Sign or trade...either way.

The team needs to be built from the ground up. NO more Melo. No More old guys.

Enjoy yourself. I think you have a first rounder in 2029!

Good point. Can't really go any further down.

"Time to move to the Brooklyn Nets" Lmao! Bro, you're a funny guy. Like we all think you were not already there. That's were your girl is. Btw, what are the chances Melo gets benched this year? Now hurry up, think their is a special on D'angelo Russell on the Yes network right now.

Replace Rose with a solid three point shooter and we add 20 wins. You think that's possible for 16 million?

When Melo is gone, the team will rise again. With him, they cannot compete for anything...just fool's gold.

Hire the right guy as Pres. Hire a coach that has the same vision as the new pres. Don't resign Rose, don't give out crazy contracts, mend fences with KP, figure things out with Melo, promote Gaines to a higher position in the organization, plan on waiting awhile to win.

Back to where we were before Phil.

Limbo.

No one has a chance to instill a system here when Dolan is undermining.

I thought the system came from the coach, at least that's what I see from the other 29 teams d

I like your game plan. My only difference would be to keep Hornachek. He deserves an opportunity to run the team as he sees fit. At least for a year.
