    Based on what I read online, asking price would be really low

    the Knicks’ new management isn’t as dumb as previous regimes, and they are not giving up their cap space to add Brandon Knight

    there’s no reason why the Knicks should be all over a trade like this...it does not benefit them in any way

    Knicks have a good chance to sign a star in July 1. The star is a better player than Knight.
    This is the most important thing. If Knight were traded for another bad contract, Morey could not make a good bid on Gordon's next contract.

    If someone offers Gordon 23 million a year (such as JJ Redick), he is gone for nothing.

    You casuals are desperate for anyone. Kanter is a terrible defender. We need a great rim protector as our backup center. A Daedmon would be more like it.

    Sigh people just fail to realize the purpose and big picture of this trade idea..let’s trade dedmon for Bk I’m sure that would work salary wise and everything since he gets 6 million a year. Smh

    fools gold. we are already the best offensive team and he won't help our defense.

    i'd be more excited about o'quinn for chriss/melo/2nd (or two)

    Only if we can give them Chris and Melo and some filler. Kanter is good but defensively not so much. But what we need is someone who can score on pick and roll. Idk how athletic Kanter still is. But anyone would be welcome that can jump or give some freaking space for Harden

    Kante is garbage and even worse fit on Rockets.

    Give me Vonleh or O'Quinn if trade with Knicks.

    But for a trade salaries have to work. Problem is oquinn only gets paid like $3.5 million. Brandon Knight gets like 15. This trade is more about getting rid of Knight for an expiring than getting the best fit for our team. I mean I would love to have Durant and Lebron. Kanter would be a useful expiring contract than having to pay BK for another year

    Harden and kanter would be pretty amazing on pick and roll. It wouldn’t be lobs like Capela all day but kanter is pretty good on pick and roll and an elite rebounder. His defense is garbage but we should be able to hide it for the 10-15 minutes a game he would play

    Then trade Knight for something better.

    Like who? No one wants Knight. Teams want first rounders just to take his contract. Only reason this could maybe work is because knicks and kanter were having issues and Knicks might be stupid.

    If Knight hadn’t played at all for rockets his value may have been just slightly higher. Guy is shooting like 20% from the field and like 15% from 3. He has only hurt his already negative trade value

    That would be a good trade also but come on man, knicks taking melo back, now that’s funny. And why would knicks want chriss? Only reason this was suggested is because of knicks and kanters feud. And it helps us get rid of Knight. And kanter helps with rebounding which we are like the worst defensive rebounding team

    Also, again, gotta make salaries work. Only way it works is giving BK. What has BK done for u to not wanna give him up? Nobody wants him unless we give up first rounders for him lol
