We’d have been mentioned IMO. I’ll change my avatar to Dame for a month if he somehow ended up here.

Geeeeez you're stingy. I'll change mine for the 2 years he's still worth a max contract.

It’s getting borderline infuriating to watch all these solid young prospects with obvious upside (Toppin, Martin) get acquired for peanuts.

Sandro is skilled, but he's small, not athletics, a poor rebounder and can't really switch. Don't think this has anything to do with Bud and more that Pop thinks he can be Boris Diaw (still only gave him a one year deal).

Bartelstein is such a lunchpail guy. He could have rested on his laurels after negotiating that Beal contract but he’s still in the trenches, getting guys like Ingles and Mamu paid.

The Knicks are a really good Jrue destination.

Love this. DELIVER US QUICKLEY.

What's the ideal Quickley trade.

I'd be stoked to get IQ.

Did the nuggets sign anyone? They lost 2 of their 8 playable guys in the playoffs (I'm assuming Green loses to father time). They are obviously the favorites but they are real thin if mpj or Murray get injured again.

Yeah, no doubt annoying to see guys like Martin, Obi and Monte Morris move for the equivalent of what we paid for Crowder at the deadline. New CBA really screwed us.

Bobby for IQ and Hartenstein works financially. Seems reasonable for both sides.

Someone earlier asked why would NY want Bobby when they have Julius and I think that's a great question.

I know Bobby was a Knick before and it didn’t really work but since he’s developed into a 3-point shooter, he can space the floor better in a way their other centers can’t. I also feel like they have an identity now where they didn’t before.

I don’t think he overlaps with Randle that much, I see Randle as a point forward type like Siakam.

Julius Randles defense makes Bobby Portis look like Anthony Davis.

It's pretty cool that DDV joins two of his Villanova teammates in NY.
