We're not done yet, are we? Taj is coming back. Bullock is here. Payton is back. Burks instead of Ellington. What's left?

I think NYK is signing him with the room so he doesn't necessarily take up cap. I think we still have 35.

Something could be up.

There’s legitimate reason now to worry that they see Randle as good.

To the Knicks? No way...

Last Free Agency, almost all of the players signed were just plain bad or massively overpaid. Morris was the single exception.

In 2018, we got Super Mario as our main acquisition.

Prior to that, we overpaid Tim Hardway Jr and trade Melo for Kanter...

Some years before, we trade a FRP for Bargnani, gave a 70M deal to washed Noah, gave a really good deal to G League player Baker,

We don’t have to spend any more now, you have to be at the salary floor by end of season. Also, you don’t actually have to hit the minimum salary you just end up paying each of your guys more money to get to the salary floor, i believe.

my guy you can't act innocent when you are posting that people are crying about the signing and not expect people to come at you. You either want the smoke or don't.

I think they feel by trading him it won’t bring value so maybe see if they can develop him during the season with better coaching.
