If they get that 2018 pick I almost don't even care what else comes back. It would be worth it just to bone a division rival into the next decade.
Also, I would be so tempted to get a World Peace Raptor jersey.

Masai should go for the jugular and ask for that 2015 pick instead.

Keeping doing the same things over and over.......
Maybe the Knicks are open to taking Josh Smith too?

Pick swap probably. Though according to rumors it's not very close right now but NY is the most promising spot.
Interesting piece in WSJ, alot of opposing players have said Knicks' answer at PG for the future might already be on their roster.

You can't trade that one away.

Toronto is trading the wrong person away to the wrong team.
Come to LA, Advanced STAT.

Ah that pesky Stepien Rule.
i found it hillarious enough already that NY didn't have their own pick till 2018 as it was.
But now it won't be till 2019?

It seems unfair that Dolan doesn't have a dumb guy rule named after him.

Knicks will continue to over compensate for mediocre players while trading away good assets

No they've got their 2015 and 2017 picks.
Hard Cap was just easier for everyone to remember.
They have picks then, but i thought other teams had the right to swap with them.
Oh. No. They have them.
Just as well.

Are you thinking of the Nets?
Cuz the swaps are between Nuggets and Magic and Nuggets and Raps in 2014 and 2016

All aboard! The Love train!
He's expiring and would be leaving this summer anyway. Getting an asset for him is smart.

I wish we traded Lowry and Gay to Phoenix and got one of their PGs back in return. Come on Knicks just accept the trade GIVE draft pick up!
Yeah, McD isn't dumb.

You'd be locked in at the 4th seed if you got Dragic back. Why would you do that?

I'm not going to say them. It would have to get worse than StarCurry/Isiah Knicks for me to say it.

And at last report, Toronto was said to be seeking TWO of the following three: Shumpert, Hardaway Jr., Future First. A bit pricey, I'd say
not even the knicks are that dumb

Nets apparently getting into the Lowry competition, Nets have yet to put together a package though.
Fire the nets.
I dont care how they try to ruin the present squad minus THard(Resigned to the fact they'll trade Shump) but that future pick stuff needs to stop.

It's generally dumb for basement dwellers to try and improve short term, but The Nets and Knicks are only a handful of games from HCA with Toronto being one of the few teams in their way.
Getting those two into a bidding war for a playoff push would be genius. Masai doing work.

And he's got two of the stupidest GM's working for him there.

What do the Nets have left?? Masai should just tease the Knicks and mention Brooklyn is interested.

Its not like the Knicks don't have assets. If the GM could just realize that they need to tank they'd be fine.
Carmelo should be able to get them a 1st, maybe not this season but surely next. Chandler has value both as a player and as an expiring. Amare is an awesome expiring as well for getting rid of awful contracts next season.
They have big time expirings that can help get rid of another teams mistakes and bad contracts and they have actual talent that should be able to result in picks.
But that won't happen of course.

Well Raptors don't even want Shumpert, and there's no way THard is going to be dealt considering he's was the guy who would replace Shump in a deal. They'll take Felton, Metta, and Udrih and like it.
Interesting but it would never happen. There's nothing in it for the Pelicans.
As fun as it would be to see the Grizz get Anderson.

Pelicans would never accept that trade.
