These crappy free agent signings make me think so. Why dump all our garbage for different garbage?

I’m happy. I’m not wanting Hayward at that price, and FVV was ok but not moving the needle enough for us. He’s that complimentary piece once you’re established.

We'll be tanking, just not on purpose.

Burks and Ed Davis. Two scrubs no better than the scrubs we already had...

So who do you want us to sign?

If you can't give us solid names or you wanted us to keep the players we already had, then I don't think you know what you want. There's not a lot of FAs we can sign that will significantly help us without crippling our cap space.

Idk, a lot of the time when the Knicks get a new GM, we all try to read the Da Vinci code of what they're doing but it turns out there was no discernible plan and they were just flailing. Probably what's happening here. At least there have been no particularly dumb signings yet.

No, we're just failing at getting free agents to come here.
BaF Lakers:

Darius Garland/Cory Joseph
Klay Thompson/Shaedon Sharpe
Keldon Johnson/De'Andre Hunter
Evan Mobley/Tari Eason
Nic Claxton/Draymond Green

Bench: Leonard Miller, Jett Howard, Markquis Nowell, Kennedy Chandler, Day'Ron Sharpe

The Knicks situation is so bad that tanking is a nice way to say it with no big FA ever wants to come here since 2010 and the owner refuses to bring in a expert gm like presti.

The team right now has less talent than any team in the past decade, the tank lives on.
