If we have money to pursue Morris, then that means we may be expecting to trade for AD into cap space, and not signing a third MAX player.

So Morris is either a backup in case we don't get Kyrie, or Pills knows Kyrie isn't coming.


I think Morris is a backup in case we cant land AD and Rosier is a backup in case we cant land Kyrie. This goes back to those initial reports weeks ago about us having interest in them two

Wait.... "second tier free agent"? The Knicks FO better not waste this opportunity on the same old panic move crap. If they don't get a top tier player just sign one year contracts or take on final year contracts that other teams are looking to dump for young players and/or picks.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Marcus Morris isn't all that exciting either. He's a chucker. Would rather bring back Vonleh

As a West Coast poster I should point out the BIG NBA story out here today is the Bill Plashke story/opinion out here that has been bubbling in the background.

In sum the Lakers may be desperate to land ANYONE because of the risk of losing Lebron.

For any moves that the KNICKS make over the next few months, don't discount the possibility that those moves are sanctioned by KD. They're working WITH him and not against him. Also, this is a puzzle. It may not make sense until all pieces are in place.

A market is forming for Nets All-Star and restricted free agent D’Angelo Russell: Utah, Orlando, Minnesota and Indiana are among the teams expected to show an interest aside from Brooklyn, sources said.

It is certainly possible.

There is no way Jordan, who has won multiple titles as a player thinks a guy under 6' is worthy of a super max contract.

Remember when Mitch made his twin lose it?
And after the game Mitch says “he should have kept his mouth shut” lol. I hope we don’t trade that kid.
