What did you guys do besides trade for Hardaway and lose Carroll:mjpls:
Splitter and Edy Tavares :wow: Size, paint protection and rebounding brehs. We still need a starting SF. Might fukk around and land Wilson Chandler. Then we back to contending status. Hardaway Jr gonna be a much better player in our system :win: Losing Carroll hurts, dumb Hawks fans try to say numbers wise Thabo is interchangeable but that's bullshyt.

I'm just wondering if last year was a fluke for you guys :mjpls:
Naw, we were legit. We had success and got to the ECF. We just weren't contenders yet which we thought we were. Underestimating us, we going get at least 50 wins, fukk around and get Wilson Chandler and I think we can win it all.

Splitter is ehh to me for you guys. Ya'll thrived off of small ball and splitter is the equivalent of ZaZa in terms of impact but was in a better situation in SA. How much money do you guys have left for SF?

Splitter ain't no Zaza breh. He's a legit decent NBA starting center. Hell, he's legit as good as Robin Lopez who you just paid 14 mil for. We ain't got no money. It's gonna have to be through trades or sign someone like Wes Johnson and hope we can turn shyt into sugar.

I agree actually, if that's the Bulls in ECF instead of the Cavs you guys go to the finals. Bron is Bron.

Yup, from 17 wins to playoff team in one offseason? Sign me up anyday.
Now, it all about signing bench players. The one thing the Knicks got is guys like Galloway, Antetompo, Smith and Grant off the bench. Add Porzingis and you got a nice little core. It's all about Melo now. If he's elite offensive Melo, you guys can be legit. The one thing I like about this FA for you guys is you got a team.

Lopez can rebound and defend.
Williams is good at cutting and moving around on offense. He can score in spurts. Not a true starter but he's holding time till Kristaps is ready.
Affalo fits any system and can play with Melo and doesn't need high usage.
Melo is Melo.
Calderon isn't a triangle PG but he can set things up and hold the fort till Grant is ready to start.

I like that Phil is getting a team. Now you do need a 2nd star but you needed a team more than that.
