Never even saw it.
In retrospect, the Zion thing we couldnt control. And same with Ja. Lottery gave us the 3rd pick so we took RJ, who im really happy with it.
The Kyrie and KD shit was botched. They fucked up the moment they publicly stated they didnt want Kyrie without KD.
Worst way to court a player and total fucking inaptitude. Terrible management. All that and more.
1) i was just trying to shit on ESPN for always trying to drive players to places
2) i appreciate your serious response
so i'll respond in kind...i think everyone kinda assumed that even with the newer odds for the draft lotto, the knicks still were a shoe in b/c they had the worst record. Somebody in bball heaven was smiling down on the pelicans for them the have the 4th best odds and end up with the no. 1 pick. You cant script anything better
but i think NY problem (management) they feel that playing for the knicks is a birthright and who wouldnt want to come play for them. They see Lebron got to LA and think, we can be just as relevant as them, but to your point, they've completely botched all their efforts by half assing it
