It’s time for the Knicks to Concede
The hardest part of a rebuild is admitting when it’s time to begin the process. That time is now for the Knicks. They’ve been a mess for the last four years, and there doesn’t appear to be a light at the end of the tunnel. The only way to resolve that issue is to rebuild and trade away their best trading chips. Those chips are guards Derrick Rose and Brandon Jennings, as well as big man Kyle O’Quinn and forward Carmelo Anthony.
With the NBA trade deadline just days away, the Knicks need to take advantage of the moment and begin to rebuild truly. The only way it does is that is by trading away their veterans and starting to build a nucleus around their youth. That mostly points to a Carmelo Anthony trade and turning the franchise over to Kristaps Porzingis.
The Knicks have hit rock bottom, and it’s clear that they need to concede the season and begin to build around Kristaps Porzingis. That means that the Knicks need to deal away their veterans, but most notably Carmelo Anthony.
