1 year.

It would be a 1+1

Yeah he wants that 35% next summer.

This is precisely why you got hope that Fiz does the impossible and the team shows growth, promise and close to playoff berth.

KL returning to TOR setups for a potential disastrous Lakeshow w no one left to sign and AD may bail next summer.

Kawhi to Toronto on a one year deal opens up so much opportunity. AD might bolt next year too.

Beyond the Knicks getting KL or AD, I’m just happy things aren’t going the Lakers way. I would’ve been pretty annoyed (as most would) with LeBron getting another super team.

I wouldn't celebrate until Kawhi signs on the dotted line

I'm good as long as Kawhi doesn't go to the Lakers. Him staying in Toronto is actually good for the league.

I’m telling you, don’t be surprised if they miss the playoffs this upcoming season.

Yea, I was thinkin that Randle and Portis will be getting schooled on how to play defense from Gibson which is what Pillzdale undoubtedly had in mind when signing him.

This group has enough scoring from all over the place that if they can just become average on defense it will really help in winning more games than last year.

You right, you right. Still speaking in speculations, of course...Kawhi staying in Toronto, also gives the Nets less of a chance of making noise next year.

I think Randle is a keeper.


If the Knicks can find someone that can teach or motivate Randle to play defense consistently he could be an All-Star. He's extremely, extremely talented offensively.


So what's the starting 5?

Also yeah, let’s cut the noise of getting said FA in 20XX until we actually have something respectable on the court. Let’s not do this to ourselves.

Being honest, barring injury I can’t see that happening. I don’t see them going far (considering the team isn’t even constructed yet), but AD and LeBron should get you to the playoffs.

Hmmmm boy if they don’t get kawhi after waiting it out it will be tough for them. AD and Lebron would have to carry a huge load and lebron in coming off his first real injury affected season and AD has always had some issues. Could go south fast

Jordan Bell and Vonleh for 3 mil combined vs Randle Portis Taj for 110+ mil is a fcking travesty man
