Knicks really improved the roster by adding the 16th, 17th and 18th man.

Guess we won't use PJ Tucker's contract in a trade. Would have helped out

Also, Shams is late on it and goes out of his way to not credit Begley

Read on Twitter


Now we know Huk's agent is one of Shams' Knicks sources

KAT + Hart for Lebron + Rui + future unprotected 1st.

Who says no? Go all-in for the next season or two. Lebron smells blood in the water in the East. That's where he's at his best (in the East).

Declining Tucker’s team option decreases the Knicks’ payroll by $3.5 million.
The Knicks currently are above the first apron in total team salary and have access to the $5.6M taxpayer exception (they have roughly $196 million in team salary). Contracts signed with this exception can be no longer than two years and contain five percent raises -- you can split the exception to sign multiple players.
By declining Tucker’s option, the Knicks also have the flexibility to sign-and-trade their free agents to bring back a player under contract who makes up to the $5.6 million exception.
If you use the exception to sign a free agent, you are hard-capped at the second apron -- this means you can’t spend more than $207.8 million in team salary.
The Knicks can also use the veteran’s minimum exception to sign free agents.

No. Screw Lebron! How do people want a guy here who spits in our faces every chance he gets? I want a chip without Lebron, KD or any other player who has talked smack and disrespected us over the years.

DFS is expensive. We would have to trade him for Mitch in a sign-and-trade.

It's an awful trade. LeBron is 40 years old. He is retiring sooner rather than later. At any moment, he can get a serious injury and be done.

Although he is still a great scorer, I don't trust his D.

And he is expensive. We would have to give KAT or OG to get him. No way.
