    Wasn't the pick Boston traded with him to OKC ended up our pick for Sengus?

    If the season ended today, the Knicks would pick 10th overall provided they don't hit their 13% chance to pick top 4.

    Since they make more money regardless of if they're good or not, I doubt Silver spoonfeeds them (undeserved) top picks, and hasn't during his tenure.

    I'd of course try to make the pick unprotected, but top 4 + taking on Walker's contract is a win, so is top 8 protected with one of their young guards thrown in.

    DO IT MOREY STONE!

    Even if we don't think there's much to be had at that range, draft capital lets us move up in the lotto if Silver hoes us over.

    Something I forgot to add, we should make it a pick-swap if the Knicks end up with a higher pick than us by winning the lotto.

    in order to correct the fault made in last summer, Stone should take every opportunity to add Theis in trade talks.
    at least Wood's night in night out double-double impact our games, i dun't think we are not in a hurry to send him away right now.
    i want quickley and robinson in return even if that gonna involve third team.

    He's been a DNP-CD for weeks. I'm sure we can work something out.

    We've only done GOAT trades with the Knicks, think about it Tmac deal, Prigioni deal, we rob them blind every time.

    Give me Jokubaitis and a mid 1st. I'm guessing that Walker would have to be thrown in for salary matching purposes.

    Kemba is an amazing locker-room guy and would be just fine helping us tank off the bench.

    I love me some DJA, but he could probably help a contender.

    Stone must not get complacent with how the team has been playing and fall into the trap of keeping EG. He must take the best deal available.

    I saw this last night and also rooted for EGo to have an amazing night. He didn’t. But neither did the Knicks’ starters.

    To me a doable deal feels like Kemba who is either trade filler or buy-out candidate + Toppin for EGo.

    Kemba gets the buy-out. Toppin is the front court player to balance Sengun’s game if Wood gets traded.

    If the return isn't anything special I'd rather hold onto him if he's willing to be a positive mentor and veteran for this team. His play has been above average this season

    Well the Knicks did want him. That was written before the game he then decided to have his worst game of the season for the one team that wants him just our luck... So I doubt they want him anymore. I keep saying it in regards to DJ Gordon and wood you have to trade them as soon as you get an offer waiting and waiting is going to the make their value go down either with injuries or bad games I would take the first offer and RUN!!!

    You guys are being greedy I would take a second round pick for him I want him off the roster so we have more playing time for Porter green and Josh we don't need Gordon not even for mentorship

    I've always hated that term mentorship to me it implies babysitting young players that are immature, like Eddie Griffin.. we have John Lucas for that we don't need veteran players making 20 million to be a therapist no thank you

    frankly I can't believe Tilman wants to pay 20 million a year for a guard to be a therapist to the younger players .unbelievable I guess money does grow on trees

    What if Dolan is just building up Stone’s excitement for a trade, but he later does the ole switch-a-roo, and demands Wall, instead.
