    Unless they make a comeback this game, I'm starting to wonder if the Knicks will even win one game this series. Their offense stinks but then again, that typically is with Thibs-led teams.

    CJ for cap space, picks, and Quickley.

    Ummm, no. Lue is garbage so I, for one, hope he keeps his job in LA. Makes them weaker! I’m sure that’s how other teams feel about Stotts staying in Portland too.

    I don't want picks and a young player like Quickley for us. I only want pieces that help Dame win now. So, I want to trade CJ to the Knicks for whatever combo of picks and young players and cap room sent to Toronto that brings us Siakam (if Toronto is serious about their youth movement which they seem to be).

    I think that the Knicks would give up their 1st, the Mavs 1st, Detroit's 2nd and Toppin for CJ and I think the Raptors would take that for Siakam.

    Unless of course we win the championship or even a couple games in the WCF, then we should push forward with the ill conceived three guard lineup, Terry and everything else we have.

    Seems like Russ was a little salty after the popcorn incident.

    I wonder how many in here would blame Stotts if he put 5 bench players on the road on a playoff game like Memphis.

    Looks like Philly and Dallas will be only 2-0 teams.

    There is literally no way that could happen. Knicks aren’t run by morons anymore.

    You made me go on and see the practice clip... and they have the full 30 minute press conference from that and it's actually amazing. AI was talking about real shit. Definitely worth a watch.
