See yah, Nerlens.

Thoughts on this move? Not much a needle mover but still, Clax needs support and DFS/O'Neal can't always run the frontcout with the backups.

This kid is pretty huge at 7'2, 245 but I know nothing about his game.

Kevin Garnett’s protege prospect. He signed with the Knicks on a two way deal last week. I don’t know how we got him now.

He was waived by the Knicks after 4 days on two way contract

He is very similar to Nic from 2 years ago , 7.2 bad ft shooter , occasional dunks , but Nic develops way faster

Supposedly he was waived because they needed a guard after Brunson got hurt.

This probably indicates Simmons isn't expected back in the next week or so, and/or Marks is just giving some guys test runs to see if any are worth keeping. I wouldn't be surprised if Smith, Duke or somebody else gets signed to a standard deal with future non-guaranteed years before the end of the season.

Isn't the writing on the wall that Simmons is done for the season, but management doesn't want to say it out loud?

I have Liberty vs Aces tickets that cost me $300, two rows away from the floor.

I hope Joe Tsai enjoys bleeding money

I like this better than Noel signing. At least he's young and offers some upside

Isn't this the kid in that viral video when he was in college and his teammate lifted his head up when he was looking down?

Looks like it. I don’t think they want to release the fact his back surgery had complications because it would make us look bad from a medical standpoint which is selfish, stupid and idiotic.

I do think Ben has some real mental issues basketball wise but I do believe that he isn’t remotely healthy to compete on an NBA level.

That’s him and ironically that teammate was former Net draft pick, Jaylen Hands.

Welcome, Moses!

Let's hope that he catches on here, he has elite tools and athleticism for his size, he hasn't found that motor and the right fit on a team (if there is such a thing).
Some people really have a way with words. Other people... not... have... way.
