How long before the Knicks are the class of the East?

[LoneyROY7]

I'll give it about 3 years.

The Porzy era's gonna be fun.

It's funny how at the time he did that people were amazed and yet since then he's done shit way better than that.

[JohnFreeman]

Once they get rid of Melo

[HAzE024]

too bad we have no first round pick this year :hammerhead:

[HoopSuperstar]

It could be as soon as next year if Lebron decides to leave Cleveland.
R. Lopez
Porzingis
C.Anthony
L.James
Calderon

Nah that won't happen

No Lopez.

PG Calderon

LeBron should seriously consider it.

KG might have been the best player since MJ...what did he do with the wolves? That was a better organization. Knick will never be that!

Robin Lopez brings a lot to the table that you won't find in stats.
Hustle, Energy, Heart. Salary cap going up, LeBron will take a little less for a title. He loves NY, but he would be the most hated player ever if he leaves and he knows it. Though alpha?

[MellowYellow]

:biggums: :biggums: :biggums:
:biggums: :biggums: conley would be replacing useless trash, lebron would be replacing a very solid center. Plus I don't want lebron hijacking the offense.

It doesn't matter. LeBron instantly makes an Eastern team a Finals lock.

He's right. The biggest problem on the Knicks is PG.

Nah, I don't see it especially after this year.

[Legends66NBA7]

They should be a Top 2-3 seed this year if they get their shit together.

Once they do, they should honestly make the NBA Finals at worst.

[HoopSuperstar]

someone else who should consider NY is Kevin Durant.

R. Lopez
C. Antony
K. Durant
A. Affalo
J. Calderon

Porzingis substitutes for R.Lopez C. Anthony or Kevin Durant. but will only play PF or Center of course.

That's a team with a future.

Nope, Porzingis has to start. He made the Knicks watchable after so many years.

Get outta here with your Lopez infatuation. Porzy is starting regardless.

Why do you think he sits in the 4th quarter. He's a rookie he won't be doing anything that Bryant didn't do when he was a rookie. Or even the great Manu Ginobili. You don't need 5 three point in the starting line up. especially with Melo and Durant in the line up.

He won't be a rookie next year. :oldlol: And he's already a better rim protector and defender.

The floor spacing would be amazing.

I consider that, but that won't make much difference. I just feel he be better at PF and coming of the bench. It's just my opinion.

If Porzy is better offensively and defensively, why would he come off the bench?

[HoopSuperstar]

Ask Gregg Popovich!

For that exact reason, so he can dominate when the stars go out.

I'd rather start Porzingis and have Melo come off the bench in that lineup. Melo and Durant on at the same time is a waste. End games with Melo at the 4 and Porz at the 5.

Porzy is a superb rim protector. That alone is reason enough for him to start.

It's not like we are saying lopez will get more minutes, its for staggering. Porzy would still end up with starter-like minutes.

Well Melo is no Ginobili, he wouldn't take that kind of discipline. Not even Kobe.

As soon as they make Porzingod the #1 option.

[imdaman99]

Get rid of the dead weight known as Calderon and we can go from there. Dude can't cover anyone with speed, and being at the point guard position...who doesn't have speed?

I know I rag on Melo a lot, but he's played perfectly lately. Trusting wide open teammates down the stretch. Dude hit 2 straight cross court passes for wide open 3s in the final minute of regulation. Plus his defense on Hayward was pretty damn good.

[Draz]

LeBron would rather go back to Miami..

But man porzy is really something

Missed the game though

[Cocaine80s]

So many white boys ITT

:no:
i want triangle offense.
i want none of this lebron-iso, drive and kick bullsh!t.
i want everybody touching the ball.
i want KP dancing and prancing.
i dont want KP and Melo standing in the corner and shooting 3's.

If we somehow land Conley in the offseason (I really pray we don't do some lopsided trade just to bring him over), I would literally do cartwheels.

[smoovegittar]

Absolutely need a starting PG before we have this discussion. I haven't put my thinking cap on with this yet; it would seem Conley Is a great choice, but I'm not 100% on this.

...and props to Carmelo Anthony for upping his game.

BTW, NY hasn't a need for LeBron. Cavs can keep their damaged goods; imagine where LeBron is mentally if he doesn't get it done in Cleveland. And not to mention all the shitty adolescent stans he brings with him. No, I'll pass -

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Conley/Juice/Durant/Melo/Porzingis

Make it happen Phil

[Draz]

If the Knicks land another superstar to accompany Prozy & Melo, I see other players following behind closely.

Perhaps Durant (will not happen), LeBron (will not happen)
but someone in that field maybe the Bulls give up on Rose, Knicks take a gamble? We've always sucked at that position.

Rose IS 27 btw.
Born: October 4, 1988 (age 27),

[LoneyROY7]

Conley would a great fit with this current Knicks roster.

If Jax deems him a look, he'll get it. He's gonna need minutes. But I think Rose stays in Chicago... he's got work there.
