Grimes will be a Knick for the MLE next year

He had requested 17M at the first place, but our beloved Sixers have lowballed him at below 9M per... so 12-15M would be a wonder for him

McBride
Grimes
Hart
Yabusele
Mitch

Plus Clarkson and Brogdon for another or two additional seasons with the vet min = Dinasty

We will not have the MLE nor the TMLE next season.

The main thing is I think they would have kept Yabu if they knew Grimes was taking a QO. They purposely didn’t make any moves to keep him because they thought they were going to have pay Grimes money. Now it looks like they’ll end up with neither

+ the McCain, Embiid, and PG are all injured or injury prone going into this season.

Morey and Philly had a crap offseason.

While we signed DIawara, their offseason was so much shyt it was Diarrhea.

C'mon - Minny is trying to take the title of Knicks West away from Dallas because they already have Divo and Julies - how great it would be if they could get Thibs, too!

Finally a list that doesn't try to crowbar in Lebron, Curry, and Durant based on reputation. Jokic should be #1.... Is Edwards better than Brunson? I get that hes more popular, younger, better defender, but playoffs Brunson imo is clearly better.

This is a lot more accurate than the recent BSPN list. I also agree with Edwards > Brunson, but I think Wembanyama is still a little overrated. Glad to see they don’t underrate Towns like ESPN do.

I agree and I won’t argue against #1 to #4. I think the new offense may make Brunson look better than Ant.

We have maybe a year or so before the Spurs become unstoppable.

Two top 15 players means the championship window is open.

Time to win. Right now.

This is probably why the FO is willing to deal Dadiet and/or Kolek. This year and maybe next are the shot. Window closes after that.

Exactly. It's a different math than we're used to when you're in the window.

A Two to Three years window in my opinion

He has said that the way Giannis built his body up over time is his roadmap. He's maybe 1-2 more off seasons from being built like that, everybody gotta chip before he reaches that.
