Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 2886743, member: 1674"] I think the Knicks are much better situated in that situation to build a team around Davis than the Pelicans were/are. The Pelicans had a chance at one point too but they blew it with basically every single decision that they've made since drafting him. The Knicks recent history isn't great either but they can position themselves to basically have Davis and a ton of cap space to build around him with. And depending on who you listen to, Davis has already said he's sign long-term with the Knicks (though Woj has refuted that). At any rate, I think I'd go for it if I were the Knicks; I'd rather take my chances with Davis and cap space rather than hoping the lottery goes my way and my young talent all develop. If the Knicks can actually carve out space for two max free agents while also having Davis, I think they'll be able to put a very good team around him. [/QUOTE]
