Not too surprised. Fox was Perry's guy. But, if true, this signals the front office was desperate to get rid of KP earlier then we thought. Is this the reason KP wanted out of NY, or was he closed off to the new front office way before this?

why do you think this..

I don't blame KP one bit for wanting out of this toxic environment..Your president and general manger just put together the worst group of players and coach that this franchise has ever witness. 90% of players who have played for the knicks have lost value doing so.

Why would the kings even consider (injury prone )KP and they have Bagley and Willy Stein, why would the Hawks consider Frank when they have TREY..then our FO blew off the suns and magic when both approach the knicks about frank

Your FO has acquired 3 PG's since drafting frank..burke, mudiay, DSJ, not even counting the g leaguer's..Nobody in the NBA is making dumb ass moves like that...

You guys are always quick to blame the player (especially veterans) because they can't accept losing like these rookies

There's nothing wrong with getting 3 point guards on the roster since they are all mediocre and we're still looking for good options. It's basically a tryout and if the FO is as good as I think it is, we won't be spending too much money on any players unless they are actually good. If we let Mudiay walk for nothing then I'll be very happy.

Yeah, but I didn't realize when the discussion were had. I assumed these talks started sometime around December. If we were shopping KP last draft, then things never really changed. In hindsight, Phil was in the ball more than we realized. At least in this one case.

Time will tell if he was more right about our FO or if he's just a diva, but I suspect we'll find that there's truth and blame on both sides. I'm basing this opinion on his actions/behaviors which reflect him (eg skipping exit meeting), as well as our front office's lenghty history with chaos and poor management...

bingo..

And....again we can discard that KP forced the management to trade him. The front office always wanted him to go away. So...it is the beauty of firing Phil Jackson. Steve Mills is making Knicks better and better.

Now it is 14-60. Who would have thought that only a few years another team would take the crown of "the worst Knicks team in history"?

I will take worst team with max flexibility over mediocre hopeless mess Knicks were for 20 years any day.

Yes!!! Who cares what the Knicks record is this year? The record is irrelevant until we can win a championship.

I'll settle for Eastern Conference finals!

The Kings didn’t offer Fox to the Knicks. The Kings didn’t make an offer the Knicks did and it was turned down. In regards to the Knicks shopping KP, the relationship between KP and the Knicks was never the same after the Phil fiasco. KP didn’t want to be a Knick. Management wanted to move bad contracts, get cap space and a young, potential star player on a rookie scale contract. If that deal was out there with another team I haven’t seen or heard of it.

I believe it had more to do with Mills the direction of the team, because his brother stated before the missed EXIT meeting, they were not interested in signing the rookie extension until the know for sure the team was on the up and up. Winning is all KP said he wanted to do, he said that from his very first training camp on media day.

But the real question is, why would the kings trade FOX for KP?
