Grade our off season

[ignitowsky]

I give us A/A-

I love that we accumulated assets by trading down and STILL getting the guys we wanted (Grimes and Deuce)

I love that the 58th pick seems to be one of the steals of the draft.

I really like the EF sign and trade, givibg us 2 number 2s dor just cash.

I love that we brought back our core guys on team friendly contracts, while still rewarding them.

I really like bringing on Kemba especially at the price that we got him for.

The Bacon signing gives us added wing defense, and was team friendly.

I think we added youth, defense, and firepower ti an already good team. I'm not sure what we could have done better

A solid A. Or call it a “sneaky” A. 😎

Rose addressed our needs but at the same time he kept his eyes on the big picture cap, trade and draft wise. Not as many folks appreciated what he has done but they will. Oh yes they will!!!😎

I think Rose got a player under the radar in Fournier. Evan doesn’t budge the excitement meter much but he addresses obvious needs for scorers who can create, are versatile, smart, character fits and will play defense. Chemistry is a big asset on the Knicks and Fournier enhances it.

Kemba came out of nowhere and he fits the Knicks perfectly. Because I trust Rose so much the balky knee of Walker doesn’t bother me in the least.

Now throw in our exceptional draft picks and Dwayne Bacon and the Knicks off season is a solid A. But then I’m forgetting another huge accomplishment Rose pulled off this summer. He took care of the existing Knicks players who took care of the team in Randle,Rose, Noel, Burks and Gibson. Other NBA players will notice. 😎😎😎

I give them an A mainly because what Iggy listed clearly,I would of gave them A+ if they would of Jalen Johnson with the pick they traded but we might of not been able to sign everyone then ,we used the added 3.25 cap for that pick so I'm not complaining ,love all we got like Iggy said really.

I like Fournier but during a 9 year, 565 game career his high game is 32 points and he’s scored 30 or more just 11 times. This is why he doesn’t move the needle much but he certainly helps the Knicks offense.

Kemba Walker has a 60 point game on his resume along with a 52 point game and a total of 10 games over 40 points during his 10 year,704 game career. Kemba and Rose can be the spark plugs of the Knicks offense.

I would give it an A- after the Kemba signing. He raises the team's ceiling because he and Rose can play the point together and because we have both, neither should get too worn out.

I do think there may be games where they go offense/defense and Deuce is in at PG on defense
