Kellerman hates the trade. Stephen A. says it's exciting for the POTENTIAL to pick up KD Kawhi or Kyrie and mentions KP telling other players not to come because he wouldn't be here and the organization was a mess. General feeling I get is most feel giving up an perhaps a potential transcendent talent like KP for DSJ was terrible. Bottom line the Knicks have to turn that cap space into wins that gets them into the playoffs next year and not in the 3-5 years it would take doing it through the draft.
Yes, NY has to utilize the cap space... we dealt KP (who we could control for 1 more season) for DSJ, cap room, and 2 first rounders.
But KP is injured and a malcontent and was already out the door. No guy would come here by himself, especially with KP bad mouthing team.
I like the deal regardless... KP didn?t want to be here, can?t stay healthy and is a pain in the arse.
My beef is that I wanted KP to be great and why didn?t we ship him?
I have to believe they feel good about their odds to get KI and KD. We shall see what happens come July.
As Hahn said, ?we traded KP for air?
1 thing tho... we can?t sette and sign more Hardaway type deals for second tier players, just to bring in somebody.
