Play GM

[worldK]

TRKO, essentially we have the same plan with a few different parts. Wonder if you saw my GM plan earlier in this thread. If not, you'd probably enjoy.

Just went back and read it. I shouldn't have even posted one. Should have just said ditto. Good job.

Went back and watched a lot of Towns. Perfect fit for us. I think the two most underrated aspects of his offensive game is his ability to get great positioning in the post and his passing ability. His defense and rebounding fill huge needs.

I'm not sure we can fix the PF problem this offseason. Maybe platooning the bigs and using Towns versatility can give us some sort of decent play.

Cam, the post I remembering you doing involves trading bennett instead of martin for calderon. Which I think has zero chance of happening. Calderon is still a starting caliber pg in the league and a his 3pt shooting is a good fit next to melo and the triangle. I dont remember you proposing another trade to aquire calderon.

TRKO has a more reasonbale trade with martin for calderon.

Well, for starters, Calderon isn't an everyday starting caliber PG anymore. Hasn't been on for a couple seasons now.

The problem I have with TRKO's proposal is that I can't see NY doing that. I don't see a rebuilding team trading a 1st so easily (not even sure which picks they can trade right now). Also, they want to have more cap space in 2016. Swapping JC for KM doesn't get that done for them.

I guess the difference is I say the Knicks make the swap for Bennett for cap reasons and with his scenario, they do it to win now.

Nonsense. I enjoyed reading your post. Found myself agreeing with a lot of it. :thumb:

Also, I've posted this before, but what's the board's positioning on my Muhammad/Adams trade? I remember only a couple posters discussing it, obviously including Kiwi.

We traded one for Payne...

I think the Knicks will be looking for a quick rebuild, not one like ours. I see them adding a few big names in free agency along with a high draft pick. Their centerpiece, Carmelo isn't getting younger.

I wouldn't mind it, but I think Towns best position is C. With teams going to smaller athletic PFs it will be tougher for him to defend. Offensively he would dominate the smaller guys, but he may not be able to match him defensively. I think he is a natural C that could play PF. If I use a top pick on him I'm putting him at his best position.

Now if we get Russell/Mudiay by all means.

Cam, I still think there is zero chance the knicks consider a calderon for bennett swap. First, I think the knicks can do better if they intend to dump calderon, a late first is still very possible get for them should they consider it. Something we dont have and cant afford to trade away even if we have 1. Also, keep in mind the knicks have cap space this summer and with the cap projecting to make a big leap in 2016-2017. Calderon's 8m a year is certainly not that big of a deal and he should be a moveable piece for them. No reason for them to just dump him for bennett.

I miss the part in trko's post with the knicks throwing a late first in his martin/calderon swap. I dont think the knicks do that. I will be fine with a straight martin/calderon swap.

I like to add that while I do like neal, i think we could do an upgrade here. I like lavine coming off the bench for us as an instant offense guy. I would look to add a big sg/sf type in the starting lineup. A shooter to spread the floor in the starting lineup.

If we end up with towns/okafor. I might explore trades for bazz or dieng to get a shooter, a big sg/sf to pair with wiggins in the starting lineup. Gallinari/affalo/danny green/ross would be ideal. Bjelica should be consider for a roster spot as well.

Cam, this is unlikely to happen. okc wont trade adams. Yes they have kanter but the 2 could play together and a 3 big rotation of them plus ibaka looks very promising and very well balance. OKC has no reason to consider this. Not saying that they wont like to have bazz on their team, but this trade doesnt make sense for them. On our part, il do it in a heartbeat even if we get a top 2 pick in the lottery.

I don't think the Thunder do it. They love Adams. Thunder fans literally laugh at offers for him unless you're offering a budding star

[northernhoops [enjin:9491634]]

Any way the Thunder would consider a swap of our two seconds for their pick? They're currently at 13 contracts if I counted right and I'm pretty sure they have an under the table deal with Huestis(sp?) no potential euro stashes where they are picking and all 1st rounders get guaranteed contracts. I think they'll want to use that final roster spot on a proven vet not a late lotto rookie
