Knicks Need To Make Roster Move When Joakim Noah Comes Off Suspension 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Nov 9, 2017 5:51 pm

The New York Knicks have a roster decision to make once Joakim Noah's 12-game drug suspension is over.


The Knicks have to remove someone from the roster to make room for Noah, which could happen witha  trade.


Noah is in Year 2 of a four-year, $72 million contact.


“We know that is looming,’’ Scott Perry said. “We’re going to have to address the roster. We’ve been working through the process for a few weeks. By Sunday at 5 p.m., there’ll be a resolution one way or another. Whether it’s a trade or waive an individual.’’


Mindaugas Kuzminskas’ agents have explored interest around the league for a trade as he's fallen out of favor with the Knicks.


Ramon Sessions has also seen his playing time reduced.


“I think it would be unfair for me to comment about any guy as it relates to if he’s going to be here or not,’’ Perry said. “What I will say about Ramon, Ramon is a true professional. The guy is a pro. He goes about his business the same way every day whether he’s playing or not playing. That sets a fine example.”

Kuzminskas should have signed with the lakers before he came in the NBA.

For a semi protected 2nd round pick they can still have him.

doesn't a roster move pretty much always have to be made when a guy returns from injury or suspension?

Kyle O'Quinn noticed he had a small hangnail during the 2nd quarter of last nights Magic game. His nailclippers, of course, were in the locker room. He had to weigh the options... "Do I try to bite it off now, or should I wait til halftime?" (source: Multiple sources)

He once played the game with so much passion. It caught up to him real fast. It caught up to most of the Bulls from those years with Thibs.

There's at least a possibility that Noah works his way back to becoming a + player. Moz is pure **** and always has been, he's by far the worst deal of them all.

The Deng contract is the worst. Probably because I'm a laker fan. Noah is looking like a dead 72 million also.

Damn forgot about Biyombo. He had his glory season in Toronto. Got handed a huge contract and he's nowhere to be found. I don't blame him, I'd take the money too. But I completely agree another horrible hot trash contract. I would add Caroll in there too but he seems like hes atleast getting burn.

I can't imagine cutting anybody to make "room" for Noah to stink up my roster.

Knicks have a few players that don't really fit this team going forward, Sessions probably isn't needed anymore now that Jack has taken his place as starter and Frank is getting more minutes plus they still have Ron Baker.... I think they have a log jam at the center position as well that needs to be figured out so i'd expect some trades to take place in the coming days to help balance out this roster or so you'd hope.

He's so bad, most people have forgotten about him already, but Omer Asik anyone? $10.5 million for a 9 PER centre?

I don't know... he's averaging a double double with 3 blocks per 36. Orlando just seem happy to give him money and 14 minutes a game

100% agree. Knicks should've saw that he started to wear down. Deng's contract is real close to Noah's as far as being bad. Mozgov benefitted from being traded to Brooklyn. They have a good culture over there.
