    I love how everyone thinks trades in the NBA are just like they are in video games... You can't just trade 3 scrubs for a superstar. It doesn't work like that.

    Not if they turn out as inconsistent as Patpat has turned out.

    If the Knicks somehow fail to make the make the playoffs that's two lotto picks.

    Easily take that over a playoff series against the Thunder in which we all know the result of.

    Nobody is saying trade them for a superstar... might as well give them away at this point.

    They are 10th or 11th (not sure) in the EAST. Not good. If they tank for a couple more years they will be better than us.

    Flynn lost this for us. Lowry > Dragic but Dragic >>>>>> Flynn. Really missing KLow right now. Cleveland just beat OKC though so don't feel too bad. Also, Scola Dragic and Bud are really upping their trade value at the right time.

    Oh and let's trade flynn for some chips. We would be robbing the other side.

    I am actually excited for the Cavs, felt sorry for them after the whole lebron thing.

    But like someone else have said, the cavs have better hope than we do.

    For those who still think tanking is a bad idea...this is what you get, 14th pick or 8th spot, total waste of a season. I would of loved to play morris full time, if we made the playoffs with guys like morris as a main offensive weapon, great, at least we developed a young star, but winning on the backs of scola, martin, lowery is a waste of time, We know that they are capable of, why aim for something that is meaningless.

    Now you see. Next thing you know they have a superstar duo ala OKC while we are stuck middling around hoping for the 8th seed again.

    Also as crazy as it sounds they are not that far off from the 8th seed.

    It's good someone else gets it.

    If you make the playoffs as a 8th seed on the backs of your young players. Great!

    We've seen what that has done for guys like Rose and Durant who were merely 8th seeds one year and then explode the next.

    Making a low seed on the backs of your vets just seems like a waste to me. Sorta like the Bobcats a few years back. Nothing happened, they didn't get better the next year.

    I think we should just blow up the team execpt keep Lowry, Morris, Parsons, Lee, Patpat to build on. Then bring Donuts and Llull. Good group there.
