It seems like the none yelling parts of the media are starting to get it. All unprotected picks are not created equally. The picks from the Cavs will be Heat level unprotected picks now. Meaning they will always be in the mid to high 20s. Ours even with Mitchell would have probably been in the lottery or near it. They just did not want to deal him to NY unless NY paid the Knicks tax.

We really need to pick a direction and goal for this season. Are we chasing wins or are we developing some of the young guys? We simply cannot have a repeat of last season. Guys like Obi, IQ and Grimes need to play! Really hoping that is the plan because chasing the play-in with Obi still playing 15 mpg, Grimes and IQ behind Fournier and Rose is a wasted season.
The funny thing is chasing wins would mean playing the young players. Thibs is the one who was blind to seeing that. He said he was ready to change things at the end of the season so lets see if he was telling the truth.
It's crazy how me and this guy thinks almost exactly the same when talking about the Knicks.

Thibs would have played Monta Ellis in front of Steph Curry. Or Austin Rivers in front of Immanuel Quickley.

I still get chills thinking about Austin River's "this is a good team" press conference in 2020. Randle trying to leave the Denver Arena without talking to Rivers at the end of the game still makes me laugh.
