With the IQ chatter, I thought it was more the Knicks trying to assess his value, not to trade him but what to sign him to next year.

All you are doing is putting yourself in a place to judge the current FO by what happened in the prior 20 years and using that as an excuse. Can you imagine dating someone new and having that person judge YOU by the previous person they dated? That's how jaded you are right now, that's the glasses you are wearing and the lens you are looking through. It'll knock you back every time Official sponsor of the PURE KNICKS LOVE Program

I am judging the FO on their moves. Off the top of my head Evan was a bad move. Randle was a bad move. Noel was a bad move. Kemba was a bad move. That is a lot of money and assets that we committed to paying those contracts or for trading the bad contracts away. |

Kemba and Noel were traded and turned into other assets/players. Evan looks like a significant overpay. Every FO makes mistakes. If someone gets a D on a quiz but still end up with a B grade for the marking period - do you focus on the quiz or the final grade? Leon's final grade is still a TBD. |

We have shown a real commitment to player development. 60% of the rotation is 24 or younger. We have a significant surplus of draft picks as well as a young player in EU regarded as a blue chip prospects.Clean wrote:martin wrote:Clean wrote:martin wrote:You come from a very pessimistic perspective, you gonna miss things. Obviously we need to turn all this into a couple stars to be an elite team. There's a lot of ways you can get lucky there but this appears to be as tactical an approach as I have seen.

We would have to attach assets to get rid of him. So that means he is a negative asset. I never said their grade was final. Here is the first sentence in my original post "As time goes by the more I am becoming skeptical about this FO." Nothing there says anything is final. Kemba and Noel were traded WITH assets not traded for assets. We essentially had to trade our 11th pick and a bunch of 2nd round picks to get out of Kemba, Noel and Burks contracts. |
