I'm not saying that in that case we can bring him in as a free agent because he will probably join the Nets, but I want to say I wouldn't really bring in a player we don't need too much, and his team is planning to buyout him anyway.Also, Andre has almost $ 29 million this season, and we don’t have that much space on the cap and someone has to go in the opposite direction as well. Who would that be?
If we’re already chasing the playoffs at all costs, the biggest needs of this team are passing PG and shooting, and we brought Rose in and now trying to bring in Drummond. It doesn't seem very logical to me.
It would give us offensive force at teh basket and many second chance opportunities with his rebounding. Also he ha all star type attributes. Hes no perfect player but if we want a pop in the arm and stabilization for the rest of the year--I think he would give it. This is a cash deal No assets accept younger players who have no future here
Do you know how bad Drummond is? He's shooting .545 from 0-3 feet this, also known as "at the rim."
By comparison
Elfrid is shooting .563 from 0-3 feetIn fact of everyone on the whole Knicks roster only Burks and Rose are worse from 0-3 feet than Drummond. He's worse from farther out. He doesnt hit FTs and he doesnt protect the rim. He thinks he's a star.
At least Kanter is gets buckets around the basket. Drummond is so bad. Adds zero value.
oh god, he's worse than RJ at the rim and ain't nobody worse than him

Yeah, you can't $h*t on Cousins and then get wowed by Drummond's offense. They're both bad, it's just Andre got more minutes. There are whispers that Andre might not have the same lift and that's why he's struggling at the rim. Don't know. Don't really care. Want no part of it.
