Someone hacked Shams, Woj, and Fischer's twitter accounts. :lol:

Lebron probably told Elon to lock their accounts so that they don't spoil Bronny going to the Lakers.

the fact that the knicks are this adverse to the second apron is a signal for how other teams will treat the second apron too.


and it should be a big warning sign for randle looking for another extension with the Knicks

Does he, or do you people have an unhealthy obsession with him because he didn't sign with us in 2010?


Nope, you got this one wrong. I'm not LeBron fan, but I supported acquiring him this past year on this board.

I think it'd be really entertaining to see what transpired if the Knicks took Bronny and sunk the Klutch master plan.

It would be war…

In short, no. kkkk

We got 56 for 40 ... and possibly cash.

We got 34 for 38 and 3 other 2nd rounders (probably from yesterday)

[edit] We took the guy who "can't read". rsrsrs


I think I've gathered

We traded 24 for 26 and 51
We picked Dadiet with 25
We traded 26 for 5 future 2nds
We acquired 34 for 3 future 2nds and took Oregon Governor Tina Kotek
We traded Pick 38 for Pick 40 and Cash Motherfcker
We traded Pick 40 for Pick 56 and Cash Motherfcker

We still have picks 51 and 56 to go.

So we might have a summer league team?

We got the best passer in college ball. What else can we ask for. Scouts says he’s tough as nails and fit Knicks culture.

Here's the thing though... our roster is pretty set for the next 2 years, more or less, and maybe for the next 5 years... so we don't need them... now would be a good time for "war"

If this was the 80s, Celtics would take Bronny here.

It's a hard cap. A really stupid hard cap at that. The Knicks have no choice really.

I think suggesting we make roster moves based not on what would be best for us but on trolling a 40-year-old man is the definition of unhealthy obsession.

This new CBA that everyone around here hates... might be a big reason why NYK wins a title in the next five years (if they do)... just think about it...

Actually, with the new CBA cap rules second round picks are valuable because teams can eat up roster spots with less than vetmin contracts because 2nd round contracts are so small. If they use a couple of 2nd round picks in a given year to take up roster spots they can save like $5mil off the cap so get under aprons and stuff like that.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

But they're going to go over it eventually, I assume. Maybe not this year, but when they extend Brunson, Josh Hart, etc.

I'm pretty confused by the aprons. I may have to read up on it.
Go Knicks!! Go Mets!!

As for the Jets . . . just keep it entertaining.

It was already war - there were all kinds of rumblings through the years about Klutch clients/ reps talking isht and/or being steered away from the NYK organization. That's what the "clear the air" meeting last summer between Rich Paul and Leon was about.

I do hope not. So bad for the draftees.

I love how they are talking about Lebron leading up to this more than Bronny himself
