Soooo the Hawks are doing great, but the Knicks, who also have a lot of young guys, are not? Got it. Makes sense

Carmelo could be a good D League rotation contributor imo.

Yes...because Jimmer is still an elite shooter in a league that values shooting. He’s also not going to complain or start problems if he’s the last dude off the bench.
But once they see he can’t guard a chair again then he’ll be back playing overseas again probably.

Only thing they have is RJ Barrett. Collins and Trae would be the best players on the Knicks right now.

...Do actually you not see the difference?
The Knicks second best player is Dennis Smith.

This goes overlooked. It turns out that KP might be a dickhead but with him on the roster their future looks a lot brighter and more attractive to free agents heading into next season. He forced his way out and all the Knicks got back was Wes Matthews. That's a huge loss that is understated and set them back maybe 5 years from whatever they were trying to do

Bruh everybody around the Mavs at this point loves the guy. Literally haven't had any issues at all. It's early, obviously, but he's been great and done everything they've asked of him from a rehab standpoint.He might be a dickhead, but is how he handled the New York situation any different than what Kawhi did with San Antonio re: the injury? Than what AD did re: just wanting out and being ready to move on?

They got rid of him in a salary dump under the guise they'd get a max guy this summer. Member we were all saying when the trade went down they gotta know something to make this move now. Even coming off the injury and the friction you don't make that deal without knowing for sure you're getting at least one guy.

"We are the Kawhi of franchises" how can they even fix their lips to utter such blasphemy?

Crazy to see the contracts from the 2016 contracts line up like that, on a list for the 2020 free agents
And great convo. 24:40 mark
He talked around that KD question in EPIC fashion...twice

The hawks will have two max slots next summer while having Trae Young, Kevin heurter, Cam Reddish, and John Collins playing for pennies.
They may be a playoff team this upcoming season without paying anyone.

Having 2 max slots next summer isn't the best thing. Entire class is ***.

KP is nowhere near on the level as AD or Kawhi. But I get the narrative in here so I won’t really argue it

Extremely short sided. It’s never a bad thing to have cap space. There are other things you can do with it besides sign free agents, like use your cap space to gather even more assets and if they roll it over into next next summer, they could strike.
There’s someone out there who’ll get disgruntled and demand a trade. A Star right now is unhappy.

They finally draft someone and give him away
They hit 21 on blackjack and said “hit me”

Great interview. He said Kyle korver was shocked at players paying their family members’ bills

I was moreso referring to the street fighting and rape accusations
Exactly. They traded him for capspace which they are now 'preserving', a 2021 pick which most likely will not be lottery and a top 10 protected pick in 23 which will likely convey in the bottom half of the draft as long as the Mavs have Luka and especially if KP is still there and healthy. Oh and Dennis smith. That might be the most trash return for a franchise player ever

That’s a fact. I actually might’ve forgotten bout the fact that forced trades can very well happen at any time & it’s better to get caught w/ it than w/o it
