Cuz you basing it on what they’ve show right now. I’m tryna play the long game. Brunson ain’t coming here anyway. Which is why I said “just to get turned down by alligator arms.” He tryna get paid. He going to whoever gives him the most paper. That wasn’t gonna be us.


But Cam wont develop here and you know that. We don't play Obi we don't play IQ. Grimes needs time too. Unless a trade opens up spots for them. Plus Rose is coming back.

Of course he was going where the money was. He wants about 20 MM which is what the Knicks were trying to clear up with that proposed deal. And all things equal I do know there was mutual interest.


I’m more inclined to believe this off-season Leon will attempt to correct some of his mistakes and declog the glut to open up developmental minutes for some of these young players HE drafted and HE acquired. If he is proven right on them, it goes on his ledger. Cuz right now he looking wild shakey. He knows the hot seat is coming.

As for Brunson, man today’s player don’t really gaf who their pops played for, or who their pops was the first client for that’s now running an organization. All they care about is them SNAPS and they following the bag. I’m not even convinced Brunson even wanna come here like that. Not saying he wouldn’t but I doubt it’s some burning desire or we’re at the top of his list. This ain’t some Melo situation where he wants to be here adamantly.

I was down on washed Dragic, but the fact that the Spurs wanted Dragic makes me think that we missed a good opportunity. Spurs know what they're doing.

I'm still holding out the futile hope that some team calls offering a good deal for Randle

With Bagley going to Detroit, they may not go after Mitch now

We would’ve been better off signing him instead of wasting cap space on kemba who we can’t move

Reports say they’re planning to buy him out.. which is what we should’ve done too but the main point for us would’ve been cap relieve

Kemba is the worst PG in the nba. So yes I’d much rather have DBJ

Robert Randolph is worse than the talking clam. He really said 1:17.

Its even deeper then that. Leon is his godfather. Thats more then first client stuff. There kids are close friends. They are essentially family.

And unless you are firing Thibs. I doubt they are going into a rebuilding year. I have serious doubts about that.

:lol:

One way i've stayed married as long as i have is trying to keep my wife as unaware as possible of the poor life path she picked. last thing i'm going to do is tell her her night is going to be ruined because of the knicks sucking at the trade deadline.

chalk that up to a rough day at work because i'm the man and a provider when in actuality i'm upset cause the knicks didn't do sht. there is levels to this. good luck
