It would be similar to when the Nets traded for Kidd, drafted Jefferson, Collins, and Armstrong. Franchise fortune changing trade on draft night. I think it is a great idea. Yes to Khyrie, Not sold on Knox. I would trade down again maybe to nab ATLs #19 & #30 with a pick swap of #37 for #33. Give out promises to Hutchinson & Johntay Porter. Thomas, Hutchinson, Johntay would be an ideal haul when you look at their potential skill sets to add to our team. Khyrie being able to take the starting PG spot pushing Burke to off the bench role would be huge. Given his 2-way potential. Then we would have a bench of(thinking 2 yrs from now) Burke, Thjr or Dotson, Williams, Kornet and maybe Hicks or another forward in his place. That bench has a ton of potential given its length and shooting ability. Would love a scenario like that to play out. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.

If we don't get a top 3 pick, I'd support trading back... especialy if we get picks in the future... I don't love this draft

I don't love this draft I'd widen that range to top 6, but I think im starting to agree with your line of thinking. But are other teams thinking the same? Can we find a trade partner who wants to move into our range? Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

It's a nice idea even if quite unlikely. It's a rare occurrence for deals like this to go down , and if we have something to sell at 9, there are 8 other teams above and a few below who do also.

Depth won't be an issue for us, we need a high level starter, which can be acquired at the top of the draft. I have to agree. This team needs a star player to run with KP. The best player they can get. If they can trade up, they MUST if the player they want will be taken early. All that being said, a higher pick does not necessarily mean the better player. What pick was Mitchell this year? There a ton of busts that were drafter in the top 3. |

I think it would be best to wait until our pick comes up before doing a trade - the parameters of which could be worked out. Someone very good could fall to us at nine - maybe Trae Young.

I don't love this draft I agree with you there... but we can only move into the top 3, not the top 6 I actually think there is a good amount of people that think this is a deep draft. I think people are confused because there's not really too much high end talent, and everyone looked better this year than they would in other years Sambakick wrote:

I want to use the 9th pick to trade up. If the Knicks are picking there.
