I'd be willing to bet Leon Rose & Co. do NOT go crazy chasing an oft-injured regular-season-wonder.
I’d see the Knicks front office going after a scoring wing like trading for PG or Lavine
No Embiid…fools gold
With the way Thibodeau coaches, do you think we beat the Heat with Embiid? With the likely 40 minutes game he would be playing during the regular season (if healthy) do you think Embiid makes it to the playoffs in one piece. We do this every year. We just got beat by a team with inferior talent and superior coaching. Another star is not the answer – especially if it is at the expense of losing bench depth in the starting line and the bench. Ask Phoenix how that worked out for them. We need better coaching.
I wanna see us get a nice 2 way SF like PG but i know thats a bit far fetched! We need bigger wings cuz hart is too small as the 3 in so many matchups! I trust the FO! I dont want any crazy trades! Id rather see us sign a FA and not lose all our depth! If any trades happen let it be centered around julius
THIS IS LAUGHABLE. THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AT ALL, FAKE NEWS. TO ALL KNICKS FANS WHO WANT THIS TO HAPPEN, YOU ARE WASTING YOUR ENERGY & TIME AND TO THOSE FANS WHO DON'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN, I ASSURE YOU THIS IS FAKE NEWS, RELAX. WHY WOULD EMBIID WANT TO COME TO A GUTTED TEAM THAT WOULD BE WORSE THAN THE TEAM HE LEFT IF THE TRADE HAPPENED? BY THE WAY EMBIID IS NOT A FA. WHY WOULD THE 76ERS LOSE A FAN BASE JUST TO MAKE THE KNICKS HAPPY? IT WOULD BE INSANE & ILLOGICAL FOR THE 76ERS TO TEAR THE WHOLE THING DOWN AFTER BEING SO CLOSE, THAT'S USUALLY A KNICKSIAN MOVE. THE 76ER'S JUST NEED TO MAKE SOME TWEAKS HERE & THERE. HERE'S A LITTLE SECRET, WHATEVER ESPN SAYS, GO THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND YOU WILL USUALLY BE RIGHT.
I mean that's crazy i really don't want to get Joel Embiid or else they will get cap space and clear out all those players. Besides those prize are really high and there's no way. Because if we go after joel embiid that means "who we trade with, what kind of draft pick we using?" that means they don't have anything including bunch of money and draft picks.
Seriously I'll pass and what are we going to do with Josh Hart? We need signed him back.
THE K.A.T. RUMORS ARE FAKE NEWS TOO. THE KNICKS CAN'T POSSIBLY BE THAT STUPID. JIMMY BUTLER COULDN'T PLAY W/ HIM ANYMORE, HE CALLED HIM "SOFT" AND THAT CARRIES A LOT OF WEIGHT IN MY EYES IF JIMMY BUTLER CALLS YOU "SOFT." HOW MANY GOOD PLAYERS HAS K.A.T. PLAYED W/? K.A.T. HAS AN ALBATROSS OF A CONTRACT AND HE'S "SOFT & A BAD FIT." HOW ABOUT TALKING ABOUT WHAT IS PLAUSIBLE LIKE JORDAN POOLE IN A TRADE? GSW WILL RE-SIGN DRAYMOND, SOMEBODY HAS TO GO, JP HAS PROBLEMS W/ CHEMISTRY AT GSW. W/ JP THE SHOOTING PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED FOR THE KNICKS, HE'S COST-EFFECTIVE AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO GUT YOUR TEAM LIKE YOU WOULD A SO-CALLED SUPERSTAR. I'M NOT SAYING A JP TRADE WILL HAPPEN, I'M SAYING THAT SUCH A TRADE IS MORE PLAUSIBLE THAN THE B.S. WE HAVE BEEN HEARING RELATED TO THE KNICKS. I COULD TALK ABOUT DEMAR DEROZAN IN THE LAST YR OF HIS CONTRACT ALSO.
Trade Julius Randall and picks for Jaylen Brown
No to EmBiid cost way to much… Trade JR for KP. With Kristaps the flow will be much better.
The Knicks should go in but not all-in (meaning giving up on multiple pieces and all their first round picks). You HAVE to get a discount for the failures and injury history.
You guys are complete bozos 🤡 I am sorry guys, because I am a true New York Knicks fan,and I don’t like talking like that about other Knicks brothers. If you think about it, the Donovan Mitchell trade, that actually was a great thing that didn’t go through/worked out in our favor because we got Jalen Brunson in a bargain contract for 110 million 4-year deal in free agency in, which they are both point guards in a small, similar way and I’ll explain right now, but for the record are you following so far? They are both fast and shifty, but bad on defense very similar in many ways in the PG position except Donovan Mitchell is got more explosiveness 🧨 when it comes to attacking, while Bronson hast to rely on his foot work, because he’s not physically gifted as much as Mitchel Yes I get it, on the offensive and end is Mitchell probably got the edge over Jalen Brunson by a little bit, but we can live with that because we did not give up the 4 or 5 unprotected first round picks, and 3 to 4 great young Knicks prospects that are already on the squad … Follow again so far?
Now the thing with Joelle Embiid is, give up the entire bag 💰 for this guy. He is the raining MVP of the NBA THIS DAMN SEASON!!!!! 💯 I don’t understand what is up with some of these New York critics trying to analyze what is wrong with this guy and not thinking 🤔 about not trying to do a trade with him!? Do a Rudy Gobert type of trade if you have to and + some if you have to. I don’t want to hear this BS about “oh well the last five seasons he’s missed 14 to 16 regular season games with injuries,ohhhh hold on let me go to the bathroom and change my tampon”….. just imagine Joelle Embiid, a Big with Jalen Brunson as a dynamic duel, and if they still have Julius Randle, who were already rated a top 3 dynamic duel this season while both playing on the court together now imagine mixing that fold with and bead oh my God… Bro, we’re going to the NBA finals without a doubt, and we are winning the East with a doubt!!!… this is me speaking personally, I’m just worried about a couple teams on the west coast, and that is going to be the Denver Nuggets and the Phoenix Suns “next season” I say, but hey, we’re going to the freaking finals if we bank on this guy, give up the fucking draft picks up NOW n’ get the TITLE! 🏆🏆🏆
I’m letting Josh hart walk . Great player and there is always a place for hustle players that can defend and rebound . However I’m not spending 14 mil plus on a older player that can’t shoot and doesn’t create for himself . We need talent , not hustle
Why would Philly ever trade their MVP player to a division rival or trade him anywhere for that matter? What is it with Knicks fans & pipe dreams. Truly delusional.
one thing is for sure, the knicks will not see the ECF
Kyle Kuzman
Love the podcast boys. I think Embid is a pipe dream. Philly will want a haul for him since he’s in the same division and market. Plus I do not want to lose the all the pieces for an all star who’s always hurt. I’d rather make a trade of Randle for Pascal Siakim. I like RJ but willing to include RJ and a couple protected FRPs for OG. Why this works. Randle’s value is the highest it’s ever been. RJ is from Toronto and young. A couple of these weak FRP to sweeten the pot. Randle has to go. Thoughts? We have to get a Center who can play Defense and have some offensive threat. That’s my next trade proposal. 😊
