Hope Zeller is working his ass off, because McRoberts is about to get paaaaaaaid.

Here's nothing (NY Daily News)

LANCE STEPHENSON

The next time he blows in James’ ear, it’ll be for the Charlotte Hornets. With his on-court antics, the Pacers won’t go above $10 million per for the Lincoln HS product and Charlotte wants to upgrade a position manned by Gerald Henderson.

It's all I got for your troubles, staying up so late for nothing.

The Knicks pursuing McRoberts is worrisome, but Phil Jackson is about as sensible as it get. He won't overspend for his services, but he might advance a deal with more length than Charlotte, and with Vonleh/Zeller on board, McRoberts' future might be brighter in the big city with bright lights

I don't like MKG starting alongside Kemba and Lance. He would have go to the bench.

19.5 with McRoberts out of the picture may force us to start Zeller and give big minutes to Vonleh but it also presents an interesting scenario where you can sign Lance and have the cap space to attract another impact free agent like Ariza.
