Zach Lowe and friends were talking about what went wrong with the Knicks these past several years and they traced everything back to the crazy stupid trade of a 1st and 2nd for Bargniani. The shift/depletion of assets for such a failed move caused ripple effects that lead to even worse moves like signing Noah. That's part of why I think we can't give up a first to dump Asik. Stretch him if you need to but don't give up more than a 2nd to undo your mistake. Trying to undo mistakes just makes things worse. Take the lumps and move on.
I wonder if I'm being shortsighted about that though because this team will be in the tax if AD/DC work out. Cleveland is about to pay $14 million for Derrick Rose even though his salary would be $2.5 million. They are in the repeater tax, but if AD/DC works out the Pels will hopefully become a repeater tax team. What's more valuable to the team long term, using the 2018 pick to acquire players of using it to not be paying $15 million a year for Omer Asik 5 years from now?
depends what's more important to benson in the last leg of his life, money or improving the team
I think that's what it comes down to.
