there is no way on earth anyone thinks any player we got in FA is a foundational piece to a contender; they might be nice; but they're not foundational. So instead it seems we dumped Porzingis to get cap space to maybe get to 30 wins
The next process should be to clean house of FO and CS but the cupboard is bare of candidates. just like we missed out on FA (sorry these signing signal Kicks know Kawhi is not coming) we also missed out on the good coaching candidates last year.
We not missed out.
We were not considered by anyone with goal other that get Dolans money and then enjoy paid vacation.
Knicks did garbage in garbage out for 20 years.
Time to stop, accept that we sucked and still suck and start working on getting out of this hole.
And this what we do last 2 years and will need to do some more to became a place the elite of NBA is coming to work and win.

How many years did it take Philly?
Listen - KD followed Kyrie to Brooklyn. The Knicks only want Irving if Durant came first.
KAwhii is a LA guy and will likley go there. IT was a long shot to begin with.
For next season, you could make the argument that the NEts will be about as good. Kyrie may be better than DLo but also brings baggage. DJ is not the same player he was and we all saw that first hand.
THe kNicks have added 5 legit rotation players to their squad from last year. That is signigicant. Gone are Elleson, Garret, LT, Jenkins, Mudiay. IN their place are 5 guys who you know their name and have already perfromed in the league.
There is no doubt NY is a signifacntly better team doing into the season. How much? We will see but early guess would be a borderline 8th seed in the East. Kinda like the NEts last year. What is the effect if that occurs - they becomem more attractive, they get better, still young and maybe then people start taking them seriously.
Its not what we wanted but Randle and Portis are good and young. Gibson is a good vet and Bullock can shoot it. RJ can grow into being a superstar! (lets hope)
