    Make a good trade. This isn’t win now. Are we gearing up for a rebuild? The biggest gripe I have is this team has no direction.

    They say they want to build a contender around Lillard but haven’t made moves that would indicate that. Or if they’re rebuilding it’s the most half ass rebuild I’ve ever seen.

    I guess the post-Hart bump didn't last long, huh

    I'm good with this trade if that pick is from NY itself. We can finally put a pick in play for trades either tomorrow or during the draft.

    I love how Hart's problem was supposedly that he was too short, and Chauncey goes ahead and starts Payton in his place.

    If they want to put a contender around Lillard, every Blazer other than him should be shopped. They should be aggressive. Roll the dice. Gamble. You only have a talent like him ever so often.

    And now they landed a potential 1st round pick that they could use now, or more likely, in the offseason, to try to do just that. Hart wasn't an option in the offseason to help build around Dame. So they did what they could.

    Good man. Nothing too new to report. But, life is pretty good.

    same story every year....we go back & forth and round & round on trade proposals, essentially jacking up the perceived value of what Blazer player are. Then, when the rest of the league doesn't want to pay what we think is the 'real' value, it's got to be Portland giving away players for lots less than they are worth. Stupid fuck GM idiot can't make the kind of trade we just know is out there

    reddish is a bonafide bust.

    the value in this trade was the pick which if it's NY's might land between 15-20 in one of the deepest drafts in recent history

    Just like he started Norman Powell instead of Little.

    Btw, Reddish is an RFA after this season, so not even cost controlled.

    As long as the Knicks make the Playoffs, this is a good trade.

    Well when we watch the Lakers get a player like Hachimura for coins in their couch. Then get all the talent they got in return for basically a 6th man who no one in the league wants anything to do with.

    I’m waiting for our turn to fleece someone..

    This Knicks forum is generally overjoyed with the Deal. They hate Reddish.
