Actually, KP never fulfilled "great" when he was here. Just "very good".
Also, he didn't want to be here, so for once the Knicks were proactive and cleared cap space and got back some assets.
It wasn't all for "KD & KI". Not by a long shot.
It was about cap space and taking a shot, for sure. It was also about making a decision not tying the franchise to KP for the next 5 years, if he wanted to be here or not, and he didn't.
It's almost like this hasn't been discussed over 500 pages or anything.
Yeah, the Knicks may have missed out on a "HOF'er".
It's just as likely they missed out on maxing out another version of Kevin Love.
Why didn’t he want to be here?
BBecause the Knicks weren't going to pay another injury prone player 170mil to only play 50 games a season, + Yanas wanted a larger role in the Knicks management in which they weren't having it, + KP has a night life issues that is on a down hill spiral and sooner or later he's going to find out the hard way about it.
They’ve come out and said they were gonna pay him. That’s not up for debate.
Janis wanted a larger role? He’s got it in DAL? B/C if not, they just signed up for 5 years there without it.
Nightlife? Again, they said they were gonna pay him.

There is zero chance Dolan ever fires Mills so the only person at risk would be Perry.

This was stated specifically in response to Klay Thompson but I would think it also applies to KP, who we don’t care about anymore.

This must explain why you're living in Alabama. But if you lived in Suffolk County, you were properly prepared.

At the bottom there's a address box to paste the image you want. Make sure it's 100 x 100. Some images won't work depending on the site it comes from. Tenor, giphy, should work.
