Fuck espn!!!

Let me go on the record that I do not advocate trading KP.

My worry when the Media picks up a story like this, its because its been leaked to them from the FO or an agent and that there is a discussion taking place somewhere within an organization.

Now - I do wonder if we had some way of getting him before we made our bunch of moves - e.g., Grant, Lopez (perhaps to a 3rd team), filler, draft pick(s), but we'll never know.

Or it's ESPN doing its usual clickbait routine.

exceptional journalism at its best!

ESPN trolling at it's finest. They cant really use the Knics FA period as a joke so they drum up some type of drama.

No doubt.

But remember when we had it from ESPN that the knick front office was having internal discussions about trading for Rose.

I'm not saying this story is anything similar, just I think its hard to not worry.

I will give you a point of reference. Look back and listen to Hahn and Humpty when the rumoir of the Knicks being interested in Rose broke. Rick was totally against it. Balls out against it. Once the trade was made he was all for it, to the best of my knowledge he never even acknowledged what changed his mind. I listen to podcasts so i am usually 3-5 days behind. I heard it back to back.

And I love Hahn and Humpty. Love Mike & Don too. But sometimes you can listen and hear some of these guys playing devil's advocate.

I used to listen to Mike and Mike. Mostly for the banter and Greenburg. But they NEVER talked something explicitly Knicks and neither guy is what I would consider a true basketball guy. And Stephen A. Look, there have been multiple time i have heard him use the term "box office" when referring to these superstars. SAS lets hype play into his reactions for transactions.

That is not taking into account his rant on Porzingis, and I am going to throw it out there, his....european prejudices, and possible racial preferences.

The guy is unique, epsecially the team he has around him and his passion for the game. He's not just some guy who grew 7 foot and figures I might as well do this basketball thing for a while.

Yes, PorZinGod was created on the Island of Dr Moreau, a special David Stern Project and as it was intended for Broadway!!!
Lots of things to worry, trading KP is not one we have any control of.

Why would you trade for Westbrook now when he's a FA next yr?

I still wish we would have selected Winslow instead of KP ..
KP give us a put-back or low-post scoring every 10 to 20 games

This is like an underhand pitch waiting for someone to crush out of the park. Though I suspect this dude is just trolling...or is Stephen A. Smith.

I'll give you this, Knicks current Orlando summer team would be more interesting.

ESPN got a poll on a Westbrook for KP trade .. u guys really lost it LMFAO
Westbrook has been the BEST PG in the NBA for the past few years .. Westbrook talent = Curry n Klay for a trade

Russell Westbrook's lack of a cool Latvian tribute hip-hop music video is the dealbreaker for me.

And 40 yrs from now we'll be laughing at you for saying we should've drafted Winslow over KP...if you're serious (and I assuming you can't be).
