Brandon Jennings to New York Knicks 1 year/$5 million 

Post#1 » by Howard Mass » Mon Jul 4, 2016 8:40 pm

No surprise but free agent point guard Brandon Jennings is signing elsewhere.

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/242677/Brandon-Jennings-Knicks-Close-To-Deal

To The Knicks for 1 year/$5 million.

We all knew he was not returning but nothing but the best to him.

$5 million to be their back up PG is good value. He might even see major minutes if Rose struggles and/or gets hurt again.

Good to know that Hennigan traded away Harris for the cap space to sign D.J. Augustin, Bismack Biyombo and Jeff Green.

He was a shot in the dark that didn't deliver. Great value for NYK I think

After free agency began Jennings spat his mouth off on twitter acting like he was going to get a big payday.

This is what you get fool.

Tobias would have been so amazing with all the cap flexibility he provides for next year... :crazy:

Rose. Noah. Jennings. Wow NY. Is Phil really the one building this team? It's like trying to bring in every player who at one time was considered a budding superstar.

That's funny I'm sure if Orlando didn't have any class they would have tweeted "Jennings Never Happened".

I fear for your ability to recognise basketball talent if you cant see the difference between Jennings and Augustin at this point in their respective careers. There is lights years separation...

No green text so I'm thinking serious... If that's the case then I agree with you. We got a good back up pg, a young beastly defensive anchor, and Tobias kryptonite for an overpaid tweener with no killer instinct.
