lost to mia w/o jimmy & lowry playing. as washed as klay and dray have looked, i doubt steph is complaining to the front office about shipping them off. he might be taking the Duncan approach and just be riding with his boys til the wheels fall off.

They’ve done everything together. Why change that? For what? They’re paid, they’re champs, they have a dynasty. There’s zero incentive to leave.

I'm still not ruling them out, although this is easily the most uncertain their future has looked since before the first ring. Losing Bob Meyers throws everything into a top hat, since I'm not entirely convinced Dunleavy knows WTF he's doing. Chris Paul seemed like a "no duh" move given his personal accolades, but what about his TEAM accolades? There's a reason dudes simultaneously been a career journeyman AND the league point god.
If/when they finally to start splitting parts of this core off, it'll be interesting to see who's first: Klay or Dray.

Okay losing this game doesn't hurt much because I'm at least watching Scattie grow... But when they lose to the Pistons tomorrow that'll really hurt.

If Wiggins can get an All Star nod, so can the Buffalo.

If/when they finally to start splitting parts of this core off, it'll be interesting to see who's first: Klay or Dray. Dray is more moveable IMO (even with how shitty he's been) bc someone like the Lakers/Mavs and even Magic would desire him. His contract isn't absurd and it'll just be matching salaries and some 2nd rounders. I can see Klay taking a discount bc he loves Steph and the bay or just straight up say I'm done and just be on his boat. Harder thing is how to unload Wiggins. Really hoping Kum and B-Pod blow up and are ballers. Makes losing some guys a little easier.

Shams said its for RJ Barrett, Immannuel Quickley and a 2nd. Very fucking weird trade for the Knicks. I don't get it

nope, and getting rid of quickley in the deal is an L too. i feel like they could've just left him out.

is OG really that much better than RJ? No, and the Knicks literally gave up a very solid player in IQ for a lateral move at best. I hate this team.

Yeah RJ is trash but IQ had some upside. OG been a trade rumor guy for a few years so safe to imagine he wanted out.

Remember when OG was allegedly worth several first rounders during the past off-season?

Welp I guess this means we aren't tanking. I knew OG had to go, but I really don't know how to feel about the return. IQ is getting paid this summer and Barrett already is so that takes away any cap flexibility, I was kinda hoping for some kids on rookie deals to play with Scattie tbh.
OG is a top 5 defender in the league, if he can stay healthy and average close to the same points as Barrett then it's definitely not a lateral move for the Knicks. Dunno what his next contract will look like though.

Best case scenario: IQ proves he's more than a bench scorer, RJ learns how to space the floor and become a +defender, and OG fucks over the Knicks by leaving for Indiana in the summer.

feels like a gigantic overpay. don't like the deal for NYK.. I feel like RJ and Quick was their package to make a big move and I don't think OG is a big enough move.
