OFFICIAL: Welcome BACK to New York THJr (4/71m)

[K_ick_God]

Everything else is fine to say but let's not pretend 71 million isn't the main reason. Why hasn't any other team offered the same?

This I don't really get. A player can only sign one offer. We don't know that anybody offered anything to him, but we don't know that another team didn't offer something to him.

In all cases, you only know for sure what one team offers an unrestricted free agent and if he's restricted, you may know two. The rest is media driven and speculative.

Tin mmm had over 20 20 point games last yeAr. I think he's ready for more work load.

[stuporman]

The Hawks took not 48hrs to decide but 48 seconds to be like nah and used the rest of the 47hrs, 59mins, 12secs to giggle at the twitter meltdown of Knick fans....

[Crunchknicks1]

It's not done yet. They could change there mind

[blueNorange]

Still çant wrap my head around this! Didn't even know he was considered to be anything but d league. Didn't watch the hawks.

13-14 .554 ts%
14-15 .514 ts%
15-16 .563 ts%
16-17 .568 ts%

he's improved his effiency and also his defense. he's made an improvment to his rebounding and assists((3.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 30 games as a starter)

knicks took a risk that can back fire horribly, but also workout so i'm not going to fault them for taking that chance.

[Knicks_Fan2]

I've found myself in this position so many times over these last 15 years, attempting to justify the emotion of hope over the lessons of experience...

yeah.....give up

In this league now, you have so many teams w smart management that not having it means you are hopeless. We are hopeless.

I think they're going full rebuild and decided not to be prlcks about it.

[Jesus Juice]

I'm thinking lance is up. if healthy, he's kind of what that group needs at 3. plus defender. high effort. makes open shots. communicates.

If he's healthy, he might do well. But he will still make it look ugly.

Real question is who starts at center? Willy or Noah?

isn't noah suspended to start the season as well and coming back from injury Willy will get the start and they will just say they are bringing noah along slowly

Don't get my hopes up. It's cruel.

[shtolky]

At first I was meh on the dollar amount, but to get a 25 year old SG who has shown improvement and had a great 2nd half of the season, given the contracts given out this year and over the past two years, I think the deal is fine. If all we get is just 2nd half THJ, nothing more, nothing less, the deal is very good. Could have four players in the starting lineup 25 and younger. Hopefully Melo is dealt for cap relief, then we have cap space, young guys, and a probable 2018 lotto pick.

Why are we blocking D.Dot's path with $119 million committed in contracts to two SG's? Why even draft D.Dot then if we planned on keeping Lee. Makes no sense.

they're gonna start lee at the 3

Hopefully Lee doesn't even want to be here to endure a rebuild and politely requests a trade once Melo is traded.

If you keep Lee, you have nobody at PG unless Melo brings one back. Lee has to be gone.

Going with a semi positionless set of wings in Frank/Bledsoe/THJr/CLee as the rotation is pretty close to that marriage of Phil's ideals with Hornacek's. Baker sort of fits in there at 1,2 as well.

What's the deal with this Bledsoe talk? Did I miss something?

Pure guessing, but there is that heavy rumor of Melo going to Houston according to Sports Modak/Jason Kidd's Son/Big Baby Head/etc, and then the Phoenix rumors.

Someone said they'd like to move Bledsoe.

It might be wishful thinking on my part it's Bledsoe instead of Knight. I think Phoenix moves a PG and what do the Knicks need?

Give me 3 reasons why they would trade Bledsoe instead of Knight.

[DaKnicksAreBack]

Now who's running point?

prob baker and frank split the time.

Neither of which are PG's

Tim gave bud spot minutes at pg last year

[blueNorange]

i hate saying this, but i could see them bringing back ennings.

[Priggy Smalls]

i'm too lazy to go dig up the receipts but didn't a lot of people here want crabbe or fournier?

timmy is better than both of them and in the same pay range so i don't get the outrage.

[Capn'O]

^yeah but Knight is pretty much a lost cause. We shouldn't touch him.

Shoot me if that happens, k?
