    Who said a superstar? I want a KD like return. One or two players with real upside at a position of need and lots of draft picks.

    What we get in return is more important than our reputation.

    Yeah but what if it isn’t? What if the offer never gets better?

    Knicks have 3 FRPs in next year’s draft. I want them all unprotected. We could get Bronny and his dad. Win it all in 2025.

    That's what they said when Simmons was sitting out in Philly and it dragged on for months. If I was Cronin I wouldn't even answer the phone for two months minimum.

    I agree, it almost seems like some of these guys are on the Miami payroll, trying to make it look like it's a done deal with Miami so as to discourage other teams from bidding.

    I want Cam Johnson & Clax or Clowney....include Nurk with Dame. The deal with Nets would be so much better involving players and picks.
    Dame indicated Heat or Nets. Riley can pound salt.

    Again, I think these are plants to make it seem like Miami is a sure deal and discourage other suitors. Riley is behind these I believe.

    How long is "never?"
    1 the blazers don't care when Dame is traded
    2 Dame wants to be traded NOW.
    3. Miami etc want Dame NOW.

    Durant to Phoenix was a sure deal too.

    Dame has nothing on Cronin. He's asked out.
    Dame can only put pressure on Miami or another team.

    Yep lots of unprotected picks after Butler and Dame have played a couple years and the Heat drop because they have no assets and no picks.
