Official 2017 Knicks Offseason thread, Phil Jackson gone

[donewithjs]

Every single sports writer is bashing us yet again. The only reason why this won't be worse than Noah's is that THJ will play in way more games

 

[donewithjs]

So we let holiday walk on a 2 year 9mil contract but sign THJ for 71mil!?!?

 

[Mark Antony]

Clearly Phil's leftovers are sabotaging from the inside.

Yeah that to me was confusing but Holiday is 29. I'm sure he'll be forgotten next season

 

[tramericanjr]

holidays age doesnt mean much ....his 2 years 9 mill is a wayyyyy better deal than hardaway..... better value

 

[art vandelay]

Sooooo..... I was hearing that the Knicks were interested in Jonathan Simmons, if true, can they afford him now that they are bringing THJr back?

 

[olx9o]

Knicks fans overreacting again right

 

[Mister Meaner]

I ain't even mad at this. The league really covets shooters right now and he does that and a little more.

 

[Air Pope]

THjr Signed an offer sheet from us. Not bad. Can't cry about the contract in today's NBA

 

[you go boy]

Kinda dumb Imo. We need a point guard not a 2. Now we just overpaid for Lee to sit on the bench smh. I like hardaway and hate we traded him but that contract sucks. Could went with a cheaper option for the 2. Hopefully Atlanta matches

We don't know if what they plan on doing w/ Lee. I'm not against signing a young 2 who still has upside. We are clearly rebuilding so all we need is a vet PG to teach Nt.

 

[Mister Meaner]

But we're not exactly in a win now mode so I'm comfortable riding out this contract and seeing what we have with him a couple years down the line. Yes, we need a PG, but there aren't any to go around right now (no young PGs). I think we can still lose comfortably with him and no competent 1 guard.

 

[olx9o]

The CBA increased players salaries & players always get paid as FA's.
17.5k a yr to have sasha (phil move) gone is a W for us.
Plus if u delete the past 2 years of nothing from your memory
We just offered our 1st rd pick thjr a welcome back contract...and hes gotten way better

Ima still pray melo retires a knick...thjr melo kp willy frank wooh

[harlemtothebronx]

Wtf

Sums up my thoughts.

The Knicks wanted Tim Hardaway Sr. to come back and Mentor Frank Nitty and TH Sr. said the only way I'm coming back is if you give my son 70 mil plus. Kind of how we got shaken down for Chris Smith.

This doesn’t sound too far out there honestly with the Knicks.

 

[you go boy]

If we somehow trade Lee then this signing isn't too bad. Just crazy how our second highest contract is Noah and thjr lol

and if we are really rebuilding why sign any free agents especially with big contracts?

 

[kn0wledgeable]

I'm done with this team. No fan base deserves this.

Why not just pay Justin holiday the 9M rather than sign this dude for 71M?

We got Melo wanting to play for Houston with Pringles after we fired Pringles for HIM

Knicks out here eating glue while licking the sticky part of envelopes.

Knicks gonna knick.

 

[onewearz]

I dont know how to feel ....

 

[don ramon]

one step forward three steps back

 

[rillo561]

Just got the news SMFH

 

[Mister Meaner]

Man I hope all ya'll end up eating crow down the line with this one

 

[Air Pope]

Amazing how y'all still don't understand how contracts work under the new agreement. But carry on, I'm ok w/ the THJr signing if ATL doesn't match. Y'all was just talkin bout how we "made a mistake" b/c he was ballin w/ the Hawks. But carry on, I guess complaining is just a coping mechanism.

 

[squatchnt]

MEH!

I don't think people are mad at him coming to the Knicks, but how the whole thing was handled with trading him, then signing him for starter money while you still have Lee that was signed last year. Should've just kept THJ in the first place.
