“Villanova Dogs and a Domesticated WildKAT... Make It Make Sense..." Official 2024 NY Knicks off-season Thread

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Wrong. The Knicks told Lin to bring them the best offer he could get. He came back with Houston's offer, and the Knicks let everyone know they'd match. Then his agent went back to Houston and got a restructured deal for more money. That's when the Knicks got pissed and let him walk. Everyone was down to pay him until he got slick.

New York Knicks: What really happened with Jeremy Lin’s offer sheet?

Linsanity ended when Jeremy Lin signed a 'poison pill' offer sheet with the Rockets, which he claims he tried to avoid so he could stay with the Knicks.

What's foul is how Lin rearranging his contract has mostly been forgotten. This reddit thread has posters adding details for anyone who forgot or missed it when it actually happened.

THANK YOU....I've been folks this for YEARS. I remember that sh*t. Lin tried to get slick, and the Knicks told him to kick rocks

They said they would match. They didn't match.

Ninja did you read??? It went back to Houston for more bread. He's tried being sneaky & it backfired

Between this and the Linsanity clip, Baron business minded as motherfukka goddamn lol

Would be dope to see the Knickstape squad for the playoffs next year, a little extra solidarity would boost the morale to another stratosphere.

He’s talking about Philly

Yea i read on Reddit that person who put that out is a Philly writer and thinks its just Morey creating buzz in case they don’t get PG.

I doubt it’s about tampering since we’ve had him in house since January. I completely forgot his agent is Leon’s son too.

Melo, Novak and KOQ have all been at the games.

STAT was too

Good to see credible players coming in outside NY to shut that silly "Thibs causes injuries" talk up. And I'm glad Pat pointed to the soft tissue injuries being mitigated by the offseason grind. I'd like to see guys like OG set themselves up with a different training staff or regimen to avoid the constant nagging injuries. Go workout with Randle during the summer or something.

Take Deuce out and one of the picks out, and absolutely

Yea I’m doing this. I would wish for a bigger wing like Mikal but Murray would still elevate this squad significantly. We can probably keep Deuce but it would take an extra pick like the 25 Bucks pick.

Would need to replace Bogi on the bench but I’d be all over a guy like Batum for the mid level at that point.

(If Lonzo Ball were healthy he’d be a PERFECT backcourt mate for Brunson)
