Knicks · Trading down in the draft (page 3)

EnySpree @ 3/8/2015 9:47 AM
I'm going to throw this out there....

would you trade (on draft night for the asshole that's going to say "we can't trade the pick")

Our #1 and Calderon for al Jefferson and Lance Stevenson?

Our starting lineup could be:
Jefferson
Melo
Bargnani
alexey
Stevenson

Charlotte could then possibly get towns and stein back together in Charlotte on the pro team.

Laugh all you want but I'm adjusting my nba 2k15 roster as we speak

Due diligence should include all scenarios.

a Chicgo late first rounder, Butler and Pau for the no. 1 pick? The cap relief for chicago should be incentive.

Make no bones about it, if a team wants to make a big offer then have at it.

Any trade will be based on where the ping pong balls fall. No sense in any heated debates or Wron Wron Manifesto's to outline all the angles.

I would not trade pick1 or 2 under any circumstance zero no trade. 3 and 4. I'd consider the 76 ERS giving me embiid pi k 10 32 35 and a future 1. The value I need to get out of a top 4 pick has to be monumental. No I would not trade for butler gasp and pick 29 no fargin way. This is a unique opportunity. I have 35 mm in free agency for vets. With our holes we need a young impact player. I would put the odds of trading the pick at miniscule

so you would trade number 3?

You compared OK4 to Tim Duncan

You compared Russel to Clyde

You now have Towns as your number 1.

I am very confused.

If embiid was healthy and the Sixer's were willing to give !e him picks 10. 32. 35 and a 2016 1st rounder. I'd consider it for pick 3

I played it like maybe 10 times and Knicks got #1 4 out of 10.

Also, every team that got the 1st pick all selected Okafor. I guess ESPN loves Okafor.

Due diligence is not just seek out the best player, but seek out the options.

I don't think we should but, at some point an offer one can't refuse?

The pick is more valuable as no. 1, lessor at number 4. Duh.

Wron Wron writes long stuff.

I was just cracking on your triple post. However, I want this baby also, no one else kids.

Keep the pick & hope we don't win enough games where we can fall to 5!

If Shved can be a better 3pt shooter, that wouldn't be such a bad lineup, probably good enough to make it in the playoffs if all players can stay healthy
If we do acquire a talent such as Lance Stepehnson, you would need the shooters spread him out, in order to allow him to penetrate/create/facilitate effectively like he fit in with Indiana
We also would need to improve our DEFENSE/REBOUNDING/SHOT BLOCKING with AB and CA not known to being good players with those being their weakness's

Also Stephenson seems to only know how to play WITH THE BALL and NOT WITHOUT, so that would not fit in well with the system that Phil Jackson is trying to impliment
With that said, in the right fit, he is a triple double threat and his trade value has dropped much with his contract going beyond 2017 and his inabiilty to play without the BBALL and FIT in with another role in which he played in Indiana well...
