    Knicks hoping for top pick (25%), KD to leave dynasty and Kyrie to bail on Boston. That’s what they are banking on. This is so Knicks.

    Prorated minimum pickup. Of course it would add some tax but for a team that has WCF aspirations it doesn't seem prohibitive to me. It would be just as prohibitive to us with no owner.

    We could have....next year. They wanted ending contracts and someone who would take on Hardaway's bad contract.
    Jordan has a 24 million ending contract

    How would they get AD this summer? He's got another year left.

    What is NY doing?

    And FUCK.

    Luka + KP is a ridiculous duo if the Zinger can stay healthy

    I don't see AD anywhere in his post. He said KD and Kyrie and the top draft pick.

    It's kinda funny that the Knicks took Ntilikina over DSJ and then had to basically trade Porzingis in a salary dump to get him.

    If Jordan gets bought out how long til he is linked to the Blazers ? -- screw that how long til he is linked to the Lakers -- LOL -- but being serious having a twin tower lineup of Jordan and Nukic could be interesting

    Big fucking deal. Still a ridiculous steal for Dallas. They have a year to make Luka and KP work.

    The Knicks drafted Ntilikina ahead of Dennis Smith!

    not really...for instance, Baldwin is probably owed 500K by now (same for Stauskas). Portland could trade him + 1M to a team for a future highly protected 2nd that would never be conveyed. Then they sign Wes for the minimum. It would only cost Portland that 500K over what Baldwin was owed and not add any tax
