    Is Grant really a major upgrade ??

    Maybe on a contender but are the Rockets really even that ?? -- I think they are a pretender until they prove otherwise but if the Rockets are that desperate then Cronin do your best to ... I was going to say take advantage of it but I would settle for not screwing it up at this point.

    BTW -- I know Bridges is younger but the Dame trade is looking worse and worse so Cronin your on the clock please redeem yourself.

    there is no way Houston downgrades their assets for a CHANCE at KD. Guessing something is already lined up with either KD or some other vet.

    did not anticipate these fireworks at 1030 on the eve of the draft.

    Going to make getting Cooper next year that much harder. We have to trade our vets and just tank hard all year lol.

    Are there ANY Villanova players that aren't on the Knicks now?

    At least the Knicks can say they have a title team now. Even if it's the 2018 NCAA title.

    Worst record does not equate to first overall pick

    I think we are gonna have to wait till any tier A players are traded before Grant or Simons are moved. They are both most likely backup plans.

    Well obviously just see the Pistons but you want to give yourself the best odds regardless if you really want Cooper.

    Yes, it's only a matter or time before Grant and 2024/14 to Houston for Jabari Smith, Jr, Tari Eason, and 2024/3 is announced

    Really wondering why the Knicks are hardcapped? This isn't a sign and trade.

    Maybe the reason is if Bridges salary is higher than Bogdonovic. 2nd apron teams can't aggregate (combine) player salaries or take back a player with a higher salary.
