Torrey Craig's best role is as a backup. Why are we grousing about not signing him? Is there evidence we were trying to?
Folks want us to sign someone to say we sign someone at this point and making up fake narratives to be mad. I wondered why I didn’t post much on here anymore this weekend has reminded me why.
Missing the point, and it’s not about these specific players it’s just the idea that the Knicks are the only team with cap space left, can offer playing time and more money and these role players would choose less money, be 3rd stringers on good teams that come to the Knicks..
Missing the point. Even though the Knicks suck, maybe they don't want to blow a roster spot and some money on Torrey Friggin Craig

they rejected offers from the knicks?
It's called "When posters buy the Berman narrative"
not saying in this case, but sometimes it's scenarios folks make up independently. i try to find out where folks get the justification for being upset about player moves that don't include us.
gordon hayward... yep. chose hornets over us for one reason or another. (looks like money, which he can totally have.)

Knicks can go 0-72 this season and they won’t get the #1 pick, this isn’t the nfl where worst record guarantees you #1, only 14% chance even at 0-72 to get #1

I was really worried the Knicks weren't bringing back Theo Pinson.
Now I can relax and go about my Sunday

Not many teams could enter an offseason with a top 10 draft pick and $40 million to spend yet still have to rely on a rookie to make the team any better than it was last year.

Knicks are doomed then. No one will sign. No chance at drafting anyone good.
Are you starting the online petition for Silver to fold the team?
I'd sign.
