I'm ok with the Noah deal. I'm a fan of his energy and his ability to defend. Great passing big man. He's been injury prone but I think he can overcome shoulder issues and get back to being a reliable player.

Knees always seem to be the killer injuries. I think Noah will be a good pairing alongside Kristaps. Can't wait to see what we end up doing next.

 

What's awesome is if the knicks get injured and tank next years draft is apparently really good. Maybe that's Phil Jackson's secret plan lol

 

Clarkson contract is a steal

Lol there is no way Wade goes to the Bucks

 

Good point

I like the team we're putting together. Obviously there's an injury risk with these guys but if we can get solid contributions we'll be competitive.

and we still have flexibility going forward. We still have room for a max contract next year (if we don't resign Rose) along with our first round pick. I think we're in good shape but the media continues to shit on everything the Knicks do. I kinda hate most of these beat writers. First they bitch and moan about how we're not utilizing Melo's prime and we should be competing now. Now it's all about how we traded the most amazing player in Robin Lopez and we got injury riddled stars and the Knicks suck.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this team competes. If it fails this year we still have flexibility going forward. Worth the gamble in my opinion. Curious to see what comes next

 

Whiteside re-signs with the Heat per Players Tribune

 

Thank god we kept Batum

 

He's getting $$$, good for him

 

Now go sign Dwight

 

Batum was one of like 5 players to average 15 points, 6 reb, 5 ast and he's a great defender. I hope MKG stays healthy. That combo on the wing will be so good.

 

hell yeah whiteside its lit

 

Linsanity returns to New York

 

I think Marvin Williams is likely the next priority for Hornets. Along with bringing in another big.

 

Lol

 

Lin has returned

 

They need more guys who cant shoot, true

 

Seems like a really good chance parsons is signing with Memphis

 

Houston brought in Hakeem, who doesn't even live in America most of the year, to land BAZEMORE? Good god.

 

That's unbelievable

 

Jarret Jack real salty about that Lin signing lol

 

Hopefully these big contracts for Mozgov and Whiteside increase the trade value of Noel and Okafor just because those guys are so cheap

 

Clifford/Ewing reuniting with Dwight from his Magic days has gotta be a good selling point right?

 

I wonder if the Magic will have enough space for Fournier now that they've added Augustin and Meeks
