I know this won't happen but...
C: Mitchell Robinson.
PF: Julius Randle.
SF: R.J. Barrett.
SG: Quentin Grimes.
PG: Immanuel Quickley.
6th man: Obi Toppin.
(7th man: Nerlens Noel).
I know it won't happen...
But this should become our new starting 5 until Derrick Rose returns and it would become 10x more fun to watch than having to watch both Kemba Walker and especially Evan Fournier (who've both completely ruined our Defense identity under Coach Thibs of last year).
What do we have to lose by trying out that starting 5?!?

EF would be six man. I don’t think we will trade him. But Burks has value and Kemba can be bought out
Unless we play small ball… I can’t see Obi as a 6 man with Randle on the team
Yeah. It’s either we trade Randle and Obi gets his minutes, to the dismay of Thibs, unless we trade him for Sabonis… or we trade Obi and he gets minutes elsewhere. I can also see both of them getting traded.
Unfortunately, the writing was on the wall for Obi when the Knicks made the mistake of extending Julius.
You know who else ruined our defensive identity this season?
Randle!

Kind of hard to play Defense @ PF when your PG gets used and abused (Kemba) and your starting SG can't defend a grandmother in a wheelchair (Fournier).
Kemba and Fournier ruined NY basketball.
So Cam doesn’t exist huh?
