We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Not likely, but they should have as good of a shot as anyone. Fortunately, they are highly unlikely to end up outside the Top 5.

even when the knicks tank correctly, they still don't get the #1 pick. i would have been happy with #2 (Ja Morant is probably going to be the better pro between he and Zion, IMO), but at #3 what options do they have? i'd rather they just trade down....another lost year for the knicks.

I don't follow college ball at all, so I'm just regurgitating opinions I've heard. Sounds like RJ Barrett belongs firmly in the conversation of the Top 3, then there's a clear gap between them and everyone else.
What complicates things is that New Orleans, of all teams, surpisingly landed the #1 pick. It sounded like that if the Knicks got the #2 or #3 pick (maybe even #1), a trade for Anthony Davis was a potential option. Who knows how them landing the #1 pick will change things.
In a perfect world, since AD wants out of New Orleans anyways, the Knicks trade their number 3 pick to NO (and another pick just because) for AD. Knicks get a game changer and it may attract others like Kyrie and KD. Probably won't happen but sounds pretty cool.
That certainly would be nice for the Knicks, but NO can get significantly more than RJ Barrett and future picks from other teams around the league.In a perfect world, since AD wants out of New Orleans anyways, the Knicks trade their number 3 pick to NO (and another pick just because) for AD.

The Knicks would probably have to give up Knox, Robinson, DSJ, and any other depth piece of value, plus the #3 pick, plus future firsts in order to satisfy New Orleans and match up salaries.
Right. And offers by e.g. Celtics and arguably Lakers would still arguably be better.The Knicks would probably have to give up Knox, Robinson, DSJ, and any other depth piece of value, plus the #3 pick, plus future firsts in order to satisfy New Orleans and match up salaries.

Probably. I'm in the camp that wants them to stand pat and just sign (hopefully) KD and Kyrie anyway.
