The Knicks are better today then they were yesterday. That's fact. Ya Rose is a shell of his former self but he is infinitely better than any guard we had on the roster.
They gave up Lopez who was a solid player with a decent contract but Grant will never be a legitimate starting PG in the NBA and we got rid of Calderon. Just listen to that last part. Calderon. Gone.
We also cleared cap space for the free agent bonanza next off season. AND this move makes the Knicks more attractive to potential free agents. Rose, Melo , Porzingis gonna ball
Realistically I don't know what kind of draft picks you think the Knicks could have gotten for Lopez. Late first round pick in a draft that isn't very deep. Those players rarely make a difference. Better to free up cap space.
I do agree that we need to stay away from Howard. And Noah. And Gasol.
