How are they going to play all these guys?


The Pelicans are today, a better franchise than when they had Anthony Davis...that's crazy to say.


I agree, although a big reason why is that they got lucky in the lottery.

Rose seems vastly underpaid, if you believe he can duplicate last year's production.

I wanna see what they are going to do. It's Steph, Klay and Green once again and Klay is going to miss some time next year.
They are going to have to hit on their draft picks, develop guys and then probably make a trade or 2 to still contend.
Their dynasty isn't over, just the KD era.

Lucky in the lotto and also lucky that the Lakers sent damn near everything they have in the coffers to get AD.

Once again, all the pundits predicting great things for the Knicks get egg on their faces. Remember all the reporting on how Durant to the Knicks was a "virtual certainty"?

Not only did they not get KD, but their cross town rivals now stole all their glory. I almost feel bad for Knick's fans. But not for everyone in the media who was just dying to write their "The Knicks Are Back!" stories.

They definitely need to fill a few holes, and I"m not sure but I think they only ave the vet min. to use. So it will be tough. I'm not sure they still have a title run in them, given the age of their core. They were able to beat POR and took a big game from HOU without Durant, but they were clearly outplayed by TOR.

Holding onto KD may have been their best chance at another title, but it also might have doomed them for the next 5 years if KD didn't return as the old KD, which I think it much more likely. With Klay and Steph on max deals, and Green not that far behind, they'll have to get creative. I think Iggy's deal is done after next year, so that frees up 17 mil. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.

PHI will really be hurting if they lose both Reddick and Jimmy. And possibly Tobias Harris. They have to hold onto one of those guys. Although I won't be hard recruiting guys to come play with Emiid and Simmons.

I have never felt bad for Knick’s fans. They are ass hats and always have been.

Every year, some bullsh** move happens. So I wonder what it’ll be this year? Lebron and Davis was one, but I have a feeling there will be one more.

Damn, there goes Brogdon. I would have done 4/85.

I think Milwaukee matches though.

Damn, never mind, sign and trade

Agree but I like the Knicks being relevant and losing more. Just nostalgia.

No it’s a trade. Done deal so they wouldn’t match.

No, Indiana is giving them picks not to match, I think.

Great....... now its likely GIannis bolts next year and we won't have the space to sign him thanks to the Young signing.

Who am I kidding, we never had a chance
AKME? More like MEAK with how they're afraid to make a move to push us in one direction.

Continuity :banghead: :banghead:
