Agreed. That Aminu contract isn't bad at all. Wish we could have gotten in on that.

I thought the Timbwolves controlled his right, but it looks like it may be up to him where he wants to play.

Sorry Bron Bron.

That seems pretty cheap. Cavs might have to re-sign JR.

would've been the perfect 3/4 to play with Melo and Monroe. PERFECT

I like Monroe more than most. Playing out of position with AD has kind of killed his value. He's better on D at the 5, and he'll be putting up more than 16 a game with more spacing in NY. I think he steps in and averages 18/9/4 year one. At 25 years old, you can't deny that impact. He instantly becomes a part of our core.

It's only 6am on the West Coast, where most players and agents live. It's gonna be quiet until around noon to 2pm, is my guess.

We need to sign him 1st. He isn't a sure thing yet.

I liked him coming out of Georgetown for his passing ability and it seems like Detroit went away from that. Getting him at 13-15 million, maybe long term, would be a bargain with the cap rising. But I think he will take a 2 year deal with an opt out.

He also complements Porzingis pretty well.

I like that tee. This dude's got a mean mug made for the Garden. That was the only quality that made Hardaway useful.

Yassssss

I've been asking about Beveley all year.
Phil cares about my feelings.

Beverley is a ball hawk.

I can't help but feel that the second he puts on a Knicks jersey all those clean steals become reach in fouls because...Knicks. Lol

. I loved him out of Georgetown. I agree that his unique passing skills haven't been utilized nearly enough, when that is his most intriguing skill set. Reminded me of Pau coming out.
