Lol wtf. She clearly sucks at her job. You hate to see it.

We need to trade Ramona to the Nets for Sarah Kustok.


Momo now thinks we have cap space for Kyrie? Are we no long "scrambling" for cap space?

SAS just right now on his show said verbatim:

Quote:
"I'm a bit sad, actually I'm lying, I'm quite devastated. As much as I've been hearing, about how the NY Knicks could wind up empty handed, that reality has now resonated more profoundly than it has in weeks. I'm pretty much hearing it's done, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are going to Brooklyn."

I know it’s Dolan and the Knicks are the Knicks, but you know (bleep) has changed when the Brooklyn Nets beat out Knicks for KD/Kyrie.

This is why the Clippers jokes don’t resonate as much anymore.

It’s no longer a joke to join the big market stepchildren Clippers or Nets.

(bleep), I sound like Woj now

Kyrie can typically drop the 3 Ball with regularity, but his shot selection in the playoffs for Boston (mid range jumpers mostly from my recollection) could definitely be questioned.

If you are going to shoot from mid range in the modern NBA at high usage, they damn well better go down at a decent percentage.

@TheSteinLine

Kyrie Irving remains as much a target for the Lakers as Kawhi Leonard, league sources say, now that the Lakers are sure they can open maximum cap space. They are swinging for the fences despite all of the signals that have pointed Irving to Brooklyn ...

Why wont we? I mean realistically we have cap space and two top 5 players in the league. If we add one more we can easily have a better run than GSW in recent years. This is a golden opportunity for FA, a place where you can get your money and win now?

Regardless who we ended up with this offseason, it is hard to believe there is a player who can objectively write us off their list.

SAS must be late to the party once again...when was the last time the Knicks signed a big name free agent that changed the direction of the franchise? I'm not surprised that these guys want to play for the Nets, its a lower profile team but its still in the NYC area. You don't get all the burden of playing at MSG.

If we could get 4 Sarah's for Ramona... we could put one on ESPN, one on Fox, one on CNN, and one on NBC. #Sorted

Edit: Or wait... I want one for me too, so we need 5.

So Rob was able to...

Trade for AD
Keep Kuzma
Keep a 1st Round Pick (could have given up 4 max in the trade)
Maintained Max Cap Space
Purchased a 2nd Round pick w/ Potential

Now we will see if he can finish this off...
