WB makes 38 Mil this year. Aside from the fact that matching that means you are moving most of our bench, who you pairing WB with? No reason to do this.
That bench we already have is deep.. Randle is basically a star player.. RJ is up and coming. Knox should be arriving. Robinson is Robinson. It’s a perfect fit

EDIT: I missed you point, forgot about the cap situation. We can always pull away from two of our deals to make room.

Certainly wasn't going to consider coming to the Knicks alone, that's pure fantasy to think otherwise.

NONE of our acquisitions are made official until today. So we can still pull away from a few deals to make space for WB.

Let go of the offer to Bobby Portis + Reggie Bullock. And we should be in play for WB.

Then look to sign Markief Morris on a MLE offer.

It isn’t a quick fix when you have 3 all star type players they’re barley 20. If we didn’t have that then I’d say hell no. Adding someone like WB, along with Randle will elevate guys like RJ, Knox, Mitch..

Stop it..... You see how OKC just robbed the Clippers of everything for PG. What do you think they would do to us?

Front office doesn't look so dumb for passing on that meeting now.

Also - if you're talking about bringing Westbrook here, go get another cup of coffee.

Those 6 are pretty much guaranteed to make the playoffs. The last 2 spots are a toss up. Mavs can definitely compete for one of the 2 spots.

I'm serious.... why would anyone want an aging self-centered RW with this current young impressionable group of Knicks? He would cost assets and would NOT make us anything close to a contender. It would be Stephon Marbury part II. Why guys why? That shiny object is poisonous

Outside of Gallo all those picks will be in the high 20's. If anything the OKC fans got robbed cause they in for a longgggg season.

Hmm looks like that mo harkless clippers salary dump worked for them...

Of course, we probably have posters that are arguing that taj or Ellington are more important

I’d roll the dice. You only need 1 injury, 1 piece of bad luck. People said the same about the nets picks
