It's a good add for the Knicks but I think the Nets did really well. I wonder how OG fits now. Hart, DiVincenzo, OG, Bridges, Randle. It's quite crowded at the 2-4, I'll be interested to see how they sort that out.
Why would Randle come off the bench?keepitrealhomes wrote:NYPiston wrote:I like Bridges well enough but that's quite a haul of unprotected 1sts for a guy who is really a very high level role player.

If Randle buys into coming off the bench (along with hart/divincenzo,) then that can be a pretty legitimate contender.

Brunson, Bridges, OG, Randle, Hartenstein
With McBride, DDV, Hart and Robinson off the bench.

Bruh I forgot Fournier was even on this roster.bstein14 wrote:Sat June 29th: Club Option deadline for Evan Fournier at $19m, Metu at Min deadline, Umude at Min deadline
Sat June 29th: Qualifying offer needs to be given to any RFAs we want to keep restricted (Flynn, Font, Wiseman, or Rhoden)
Sun June 30th: Troy Brown Jr's $4m become's fully guaranteed if not waived
Sunday, June 30 at 3 p.m. = Start of Free Agency
My assumption is that we are likely to clear house on all FAs besides Font.

To summarize, Luke Kennard and four high second round picks for what became a season and a half of one of the worst rotation centers in the league. A lesson in asset (mis)management.

Wouldn't mind getting Kennard back, Dude is shooting 45% from 3 on high volume.
Dont the Grizz need to dump him for cap reasons?

Luke is one of the best shooters in the game. Problem with him has been the knees. If the price was right and our medical staff thought he will provide enough minutes I'd take him if he was willing.

Cade
Kennard
Grimes
Tek
Stewart
Thats a shooters lineup!
Yeah, I know, defensive problems galore.

Feels like Knicks have another move to make or OG is going to be hard for them to sign. Seems like one where it'd be irresponsible for us to not at least make OG a big money offer.

New York is all in. They will Max OG if they have to.

Yeah, I was in the “hey let’s at least try on OG” camp, and I’d still love for us to be able to make a run, but frankly there’s no way the Knicks don’t max him now.
And with PG wanting to stay out west we’d be behind the Magic and Sixers at the very least for a guy like OG.
Things aren’t looking good free agency-wise for us to be perfectly blunt. It’s why you saw Gores (clueless) talk about free agency but Langdon (knows what’s up) talking about trades.

I’m w you on the long shot attempt for OG, but yeah, NY doesn’t have a choice now - they are all in.
We weren’t getting PG13 either. I just want us to get a couple of young but experienced 3&D wings - trade or FA, don’t care how.
