This is a huge opportunity for Beasley to start

and show if he is worth resigning. If he shows consistency as a scorer Perry just might pull the trigger over the summer.
The funniest thing about that article  
nyjuggernaut2 : 2/7/2018 5:17 pm : link
is how it states that the Knicks will be actively seeking to get younger during this trading period. Yet, they just went and traded one of their young guys who made the All Rookie team a year ago...go figure.

Yeah, such a "Knicksy" thing to do. I guess it's possible there's zero trade market for O'Quinn, but if you can get anything for him, you do it and keep Willy for the time being.
News flash the Knicks are poorly run and dumb

and they're unlucky. Quite a hat trick.
Horny sees Willy inpractice

As does Perry

They obviously do not think highly of him. I think I’ll go with their judgment rather than the wishful thinking of a bunch of posters on B.B.I

There is also a discipline question. Guys are starting to act up. You have to quelch that shit ASAP.Willy is a back up. He’ll probably won’t of theNBA in five years.

Playing him quite possibly could reduce his value: Two seconds is a fine return, Move on. It’s minor move

Hornacek hasn't done anything to show he's got a handle on this. The lineups he's played this year make no sense at times. The things he's said about players who perform well don't mesh with them disappearing from the rotation the very next game.

Boost thardaway then trade him. And I gotta admit coach looks like he's already thinking about his next stop.

Trade hardaway for a pick. Trade up. Keep the kids healthy and see you next year.

Kinda wish we traded hardway before his little slump/injury thingy.
Again..

this isn't the issue:

It shouldn't matter what they think of him. What matters is the value in return for a player that was a first team all-rookie last year. It is bad business. It is even poorer business if they did it out of emotion.

That's not wishful thinking by posters, it is a logical plan. You sell an asset for as much as you can, and if you can't get value, you keep him until you can.

Don’t love the trade but don’t hate it either. A point Pelton made is if KP is a center long term, particularly if he’s even a bit less mobile post injury, then it puts a ceiling on Willy’s roll here. The goal with the trade is to get a player as good as WH at a non-C position.
Vanzetti,  
Keith : 2/7/2018 9:45 pm : link
Besides the value aspect of it, you are acting like:

A. Coaches and/or GM’s are 100% correct in their personnel decisions. They’re not, more specifically, Hornacek has proven that to be untrue. Not sure I’d hang my hat on PT decisions that he makes.

B. We don’t have a whole season of WH against NBA teams in game action to refer back to. I’d put a little more value in that rather than practice. In fact, every other team looks at that when judging his value. Last year he showed a lot of promise and if we tried to trade him last off-season, I’d bet we could have gotten more than what we just got. We got nothing because he’s been glued to the bench.
All I care about is getting deals done  
nygiants16 : 2/7/2018 9:50 pm : link
For Lee and oquinn tomorrow, no reason they should be on this team past thursday..

Also no reason for jack to start let Frank and burke man the position with jack being a vet leader to them...

If Lee is still here he should not be starting...

I'd like to see kornwt and hicks get some minutes and see what we got...

Also Xavier rathan Mayes should be brought up, been dominating since burke was brought up
For Those Liking The 2nd Round Picks Return  
TheVette : 2/8/2018 12:17 am : link
How about these recent "gem" 2nd round picks the Knicks made in the last few years - Louis Labeyrie, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Ognjen Jaramaz. Anyone getting hot and bothered over these guys? Are they real people? Do they even exist?

I know teams like stash players in Europe, but these guys are stash-trash

He wasn't eligible to be traded until December 15th. His "little slump/injury thingy" started before that. You should stick to not knowing what you're talking about on football threads instead of spreading it to other topics.
