I'm sick and tired of trading for players that are either past their prime are never going to hit their prime that would be of any relevance to the team(a.ka they just suck and will suck) we should be looking to trade for a 1st roud pick and hopefully get a really good pg in the draft that can shoot well, penetrate and develop into something good like Jerian Grant of Notre Dame like BRIGGS Mentioned(watched some of his games btw and he is really good). Unless we can get a decent pg that can fit into the system right away(Dragic or Bledsoe) then lets look for a pg of the future not of the past.

He was when Melo's DIGITAL TEAM leaked he wanted to play with a 2yrs ago
Oh wait we were in WIN NOW mode then while REBUILDING too

I mean how dumb can we be to decline getting involved
With the Celtics, Danny Ainge literally has more picks
In the fold than a team can legally retain in a 3yr span
He has to unload them to another team eventually
What's even sadder it appears we can't beat that package
Nothing written about what the role the Knicks would have, what they would acquire etc. My guess, the deal didn't benefit the knicks but I don't know if I am right because
the details weren't reported. It seems though that if a deal was there to benefit the Knicks or Lakers they would have jumped in. The lakers took Lin because a first rounder was included. My guess is that if a fair deal was there that benefitted the Knicks they would have participated.
