What Phil waiting for, bruh?

Looks like DeAndre Jordan is his first priority.

 

[jaysfiend23]

We are gunna end up with robin I won't be pissed if we do

 

[Master Zik]

Robin Lopez is just another Jared Jeffries type to me. Decent but I wouldn't even pay him that much but I understand the climate we're in with overpaying players.

Lets sign Bismack and the Greek and Delfino now

Bums.

Welp he's yours now.. Cheer him on.


@ThomasCDee
Per source, #knicks and Robin Lopez have agreed in principle to a deal.

 

[hsalem]

This is exactly what I was hoping the Knicks wouldn't do.

I'm sick of this

 

[Air Pope]

Hmm.




Porzingis gonna hold it down

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Robin Lopez is a good player idk why anyone has an issue with it. You struck out on Monroe, LMA and presumably Jordan. You need a center. You got one at a fair price.

Robin can rebound, defend, block shots, hit the open mid range shot, score a little on the block. He's a good player.

Welcome RoLo 

 

Just need to figure out a way to get Beverly now.

Not mad at RoLo at all. Good move.

@ESPNSteinLine: Source close to talks says Robin Lopez has COMMITTED to join Knicks and will do so ... UNLESS DeAndre Jordan chooses Knicks

Cool now get rid of sir Caldo & maybe Air Bargs wit him as a package, also how our bench looking?

I'm not sure we can even advertise that as a "package"

Dont think we got a bench at all.

 

[bangdak]

Unless DJ commits to the Knicks?

What a slap to a face to RoLo. I would take Lopez over DJ and wouldn't sweat a nights worth of sleep over it.

Not as athletic but a much better scorer and not as foul prone. Also not a liability in the last 5 minutes of a game. Sign me up.

And have we resigned Bargs? Dude is already a FA unless I'm mistaken.

 

[hsalem]

Then actual bench is actually going to get replaced with slushee machines per Spike Lee's request

 

[d3si]

No surprise that Robin is willing to wait. His brother lives in NYC.

 

[hsalem]

Can't wait for DA to sign with Knicks

 

[lver of jordan]

Dont think we got a bench at all.

Welp nvm Caldo & Air Bargs might have to stay

 

[nick.]

haven't been this happy in awhile

refreshing to see smart front office decisions & not hand out $100M everywhere

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Foundation is being built

 

[surgev1]

Robin Lopez a done deal, hey at least Phil's making moves.

 

[youngin33]

Like the RoLo move. Phil making solid deals IMHO.

@NYDNSports: Isola: Knicks' Phil Jackson fumbles through early NBA free agency, looks like rookie exec http://t.co/xpzyrSMs9K

Isola is so salty he was wrong about Monroe

 

[arrjae2]

im good with Robin Lopez.
smart player, can finish around the rim, hits his FTs, low post kinda sus tho.
+ he plays big on defense. pause.

need to find a backup who does almost the same thing for cheap.
Robins known to be injury prone

Just been told that DeAndre Jordan is not going "to be made in the next 24 hours," source.

Oh great
