NFT: Knicks chat: Week ahead and trade deadline next week

nygiants16 : 1/30/2023 8:37 am
A big homestand upcoming for the Knicks, Lakers, Heat, Clippers, Sixers all at home, if they can go 2-2 that would be fantastic. Just have to tread water during this tough stretch.

Trade deadline is next week and based on reports the most active talks are with Milwaukee surrounding Reddish and Grayson Allen.

I think the main objective for the Knicks is to get a wing defender who can shoot to come off the bench..

I think if they can do that with Quickley coming off the bench, the bench unit can become a strength again.

I like Mcbride but his inability to be a catch and shoot player is hurting them..

Quickley needs to be in the finishing group regardless, Grimes or Rj can be in based on how they are playing and situation.

Should be a fun week and hopefully we get some rumors

He's the new Ntilikina, a player so unrelentingly useless on offense that no level of defense can offset it.


I like Mcbride but i think he is the main rotstion guy that needs to be upgraded..

His inability to hit the catch and shoot 3 has killed them in games, especially with how good Quickley is getting into the paint
Quentin Grimes is in the

You don't give up 3 unprotected picks

For a role player.
OG is not adding a win to this current team, I hope they walk away from this.
I can't see giving 2 unprotected for OG.
McBride might turn into

something but right now he's a liability. I'd rather they dust off Fournier or Rose when they need bench minutes.
Yeah, Deuce is fun on defense and brutal on offense.

Really can't shoot at this point, even free throws. Best thing you can say about him is that he lights up the G league and his college stats are solid. But yeah, he's maybe more of a detraction on offense as he is a plus on defense.

I wouldnt do it but hes going to go for 3 1sts, 1 unprotected, 1 lightly protected and than 1 lottery portected more than likely..

The position he plays is highly coveted

how I just want the Knicks to do something. Dangerous way to think luckily I don't run the team. Not sure why I can't just enjoy a nice little 46 win season and wait for the off-season. Maybe it's because the off-seasons have yielded so little around here.

It sure seems like superstar players moved around a lot more often when the Knicks had no cap space/tradable assets and flexibility.

Where is that top 15 player who is growing angrier and angrier with his current digs and wants MSG. Where you at.

To quote Joe Schoen, don't shop hungry. Hopefully they don't force something big at the deadline just because we're all hungry for a big improvement.

Sure. He's still very young. Right now, though, he doesn't belong in the NBA.

His biggest problem i think is he has no idea how to play off the ball, in college and even when he goes down to the G league, he is the best player on the court, he always had the ball and cna be agressive scoring..

With the Knicks he is off the ball player, gets a couple of shots and thats it and he struggles doing that

The Toronto Raptors would like to get off of OG Anunoby’s contract before they have to pay him after next season, per @Gambo987

I remember Ball saying a couple of months back that he couldn't even walk up stairs without feeling pain. Good God.
