I would trade for zion if he wants out to new york knicks any other team same zion but to new york rj barett his best friend and renewed energy in msg zion no where else can count only 2 new york because we got screwed by the nba and the pels got zion than the knicks
I believe this Knicks would be trading one headache for another.
Just stop already
Teams love to overvalue the real value of players. Why do GM’s think everyone is a fool……let the Pelicans deal with there extension mistake…..
Randle, sims & and a top 10 protected first or wizards first and Dallas’ first but not much more
Let’s not act like we ain’t rank a whole season for this dude
Charlotte dropped the ball on that, Zion n Melo 👀👀👀👀👀
I love that trade idk if NO goin for it tho lol. No pics bruh Zion ain’t worth pics rn
Randle is here to stay this is fantasy basketball season
Oh boy! God bless! Jesus is the way ✝🤍
It makes more sense to keep Randle, who is generally durable with an affordable contract, than it does to move multiple assets for a guy who has a max deal, and misses 2 out of every 3 games.
No way 😂
No thank u
29% from the 3 point line in the playoffs is not what we need
He spoke with other league Executives about a player on the team that's not even on theirs😂😂😂 can we stop with the b***** breaking news Knicks sign Bernard King😂
Leon rose not gonna do nothing he never does .
No way on Zion. 4 years in, he has NEVER played more than 25 games in a row, NEVER. Who cares if he's available in a trade, he's rarely available to play in games, missing 2 out of 3 so far. Hard pass.
Crazy talk. I wouldn't trade Randle for Zion heads hp. Randle is a hell of a lot better than given credit for in these chats/podcasts.
The knicks are trading for the wrong talent from the pelicans. The trade should be for Ingram.
Knicks get Ingram
Pelican get RJ and 2 unprotected picks
Ingram is the big wing we needs who can guard the 3 n 4. He can create his own shot n be the second option to Brunson.
Everybody commenting on this situation are not looking at the big picture. He doesn't want to be in NOLA. He didn't want them to draft him in the first place. So what do you see these players do when they want out? They sit out seasons, and do protests until they're traded to a team they want. Look at the AD situation…
Imo a fair/realistic trade is randle, quickley, 2 1st rounders unprotected…
Time to make a new bottom banner now that Obi is gone
If I'm trading for ZION, it will be for Julius Randle and Fournier. The Knicks will also get Larry Nance. Just to take on Zion contract can be a problem. So i would have an incentive if Zion does not play in 50 games in either of the first two season, the Knicks get an unprotected 1st in 2026 draft. If in 3rd year he plays less than 45 games the KNICKS get an unprotected 1st in 2028 draft. We are not only giving Julius Randle but we are taking on a contract that is very large. If zion is unavailable at least we get a decent PF in Nance, and we're protected in some degree if Zion can't get on court . Yes if Zion plays we more than likely win trade but if he is still the same fragile player who Can't get on court, we are protected with draft picks
Pelicans take 2 2nd,ronda future picks, as Obi,.
O.K ?! Say the Knicks are Dumb enough to trade for this #ManChild 💯 ?! They get him for varoius picks and players then he goes #Pelican on them? !😂😂😂 #Problematic 💯!!! Now what ?! #Fleeced
Why do people want him?
Hell No!!!!! Zion?? I want no part of his lazy fat ass on the Knickerbockers..
Just don’t do it Knicks. Our team is fine without this liability.
Julius Randle, IQ and 2 future protected 1sts for Zion and Herb Jones. This would be a win win for both teams
I don't know if I'm the only one that sees it. Everyone could go except JB & Barrett for obvious reasons. I'm a big IQ and Grimes fan. But Zion is too big of a talent to let slip away. Everyone always questions Zions health. Take a look at some of your favorite players & see how much they have been injured. How many games did Embiid play again in his early seasons? When Ben Simmons was on Philly they were a few Knicks fans that would have took him. How many ppl would have passed on Kawhi? It's a plan. Zion is acting hurt cause he wants to be traded. And look what we are talking about today.
I.can trade Randle for zieon Randle plays 80 games a season zieon might play 20 games that lot also can take weigjt off is to heavy not worthy money's he get paid. He was good in college's once turned pro has not been healthy kinicks will lose on that trade
Keep posting this stupid shit cause Zion ain’t worth it 😂
He has no pride in taking care of his body
He still keeps them in playoffs contention
Only a fool with mortgage the future for a player like Zion? I understand about his issues with the Pelicans, but he hasn't proven that he can play through an entire season. Also, is he motivated to put in the work that is needed to be an NBA player? Or does he fold up when things get difficult? This is N.Y. Fans here will eat him alive.
