What Trade Made/Makes More Sense? The Melo Deal or the Rumored Mitchell Trade?

Z-Man asked: How analogous is this situation to just before the Melo trade? This question continues to bug me. -at that time Ujiri was kind of unknown, and we had Donnie Walsh, so while Dolan was more directly involved and the deal seemed imminent, it wasn’t clear that it would be such a massive overpay […]

Let’s Expand the Grimes/Obi Debate to Include Immanuel Quickley

Okay, a couple of things. 1. I think the Knicks are eventually trading for Donovan Mitchell 2. If they do trade for Donovan Mitchell, Immanuel Quickley is almost certainly heading to Utah in the deal 3. I think he is likely going to be joined by one of Quentin Grimes and Obi Toppin. 4. I […]

Who Would You Rather Give Up In a Trade – Quentin Grimes or Obi Toppin?

As the Donovan Mitchell trade rumors abound, it sure sounds like any trade would involve Immanuel Quickley almost certainly going to Utah, but if the trade goes down, he’s not going alone. There would be at least a slim chance of Cam Reddish and Deuce McBride being enough to add to the deal, but that […]

The Charlie Ward Curse Is Over! Mitchell Robinson Resigns for 4 Years/$60 Million

It sounds like the delay on Mitch returning was Masai making a late push to sign him, but Mitch ultimately stuck with his Plan A, which was reported days ago, of coming back to the Knick for four years and $60 million. I am pumped, of course. Spending money in this offseason and then extending […]

Tramps Like Us, Baby, We Were Born to Brunson – The 2022 Free Agency Opening Day Thread

How funny is it that free agency really is treated like a game in and of itself, right? And today is opening day for this stressful but entertaining game. The Miami Heat will apparently not be meeting with Jalen Brunson today, making it a near certainty that Brunson will be signing with the Knicks as […]

The Knicks Trade the #11 Pick, Kemba Walker and Four Future Second Round Picks for a Mystery Prize

We were all expecting the Knicks to make some sort of move, and they did, in fact, get very busy on the trade market. They tried all night to move up to either #4 or #5 to get Jaden Ivey, and when that failed, also tried to move up to #7 to get Shaedon Sharpe. […]

The Basketball Gods Owe Us One: The 2022 NBA Draft Thread

There are so many rumors flying around, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Knicks just end up doing nothing but make their pick (unless Rose wants even more 2023 picks, of course). Let’s hope that something cool happens!
