Knicks are in a precarious position... If they sign Kyrie then there isn?t room for both Mudiay and DSJ... if they don?t get the Zion or RJ, then what do you do?
If you have Kyrie, do you draft Murant?
In other words, let?s look at the PG situation... which... ironically... is a position the franchise has been devoid of since M-Jax and Rod-Strix were drafted back-2-back years...
NYC is home to the playground PG... it?s in the city?s blood. What we?ve been forced to endure the last 25 years is a disgrace. The one season we had a decent PG, albeit an aged Kidd, the Knicks won 50 games and advanced to the second round (beating BOS).
After a run of Walt, Sparrow, Jax, Strickland, Harper, Cheeks, Rivers, Anthony... the QB of MSG, during the era of the PG in the NBA... the maestro of Knickerbockers turned into the likes of the pollsters as underwhelming as Ward, Grant, Childs, Scott Brooks, Brooks Thompson, Brunson, old Mark Jax, Eric Strickland, Eisley, Frank Williams, Moochie Norris, Starbury, Crawford, N8, Duhon, Stevie Francis, Roberson, Douglas, Sergio Rodriguez, Felton, Billups, Anthony Carter, Bibbons, The Baron Davis, LINsanity, Kidd, Prigioni, Beno Udrih, Turrey? Murry, Calderon, Larkin, Galloway, Sved, Grant, Rose, Jennings, Baker, Nitklina, Sessions, Jack, Burke, Mudiay, DSJ. Oh, and Milos Vujanic wouldn?t leave his war-torn country to come play for the team after they drafted the European.
Now, here we are with as many as these options to be running the PG spot next year:
DSJ
Mudiay
Knits
K-Allen
Murant
Kyrie
Kemba
Rozier
Bledsoe
Conley
Lowry
The answer could be on our roster, it might arrive in the draft or via free agency, or even perhaps come in the form of a surprise trade.
So, how do you handle the rest of the season?
I would go with an equal distribution rest of the way... do your best to evaluate what we have in-house... get this right. judge impartially. Then, assess your appraised asset against what is available on the market, compare the values... shoot for your number one target.
