Now they are not even the best team in their city

Seriously. I'm not even a Knicks fan, but what makes you say this and mean it? I seriously don't get it.

How does the 3rd worst team in the conference overtake the 7th best in one off season with one team gaining a talented, but predominantly iso player and the other losing a PG who's turnover prone while playing well in a known PG friendly system?

Nets were 22-44 after nothing really turbulent. They were just shytty except their PG.
Knicks were 36-30 after coaching changes and tons of injuries involving their best players.

This is a serious question to you or anyone that believes the Nets are better than the Knicks.

:wtf:
You do realize in order to do that the Knicks would have to take back an equally sh*tty contract(s) right?

It's not like the Clippers are going to be like, "Oh great an expiring contract! Here's Chris Paul!":comeon:

No they wouldn't.

Why are you guys acting as if Lin will suck? He could very well be worth that 14 million in year 3.

You do realize that Brook Lopez only played like 5 games last year right? They had injuries and Joe >>>> any player on the Warriors

Because they have reservations about giving a fringe starting PG, max-level dollars at the end of the deal? Stop being simple

The only reason I've heard that makes even a little bit of sense as to why they should match is "they can't do shyt else with their cap situation, might as well".

Somebody post that game and those numbers he had against Miami. :lolbron: teams are feeling disrespected about that 15 mil. I got a feeling this will backfire and ESPN will bash the Rockets when they were reason for all the hype. He'll be a distant memory by Christmas.


:manny: At least he can open up his own pei wei now.

It's not about whether they're right or not. My issue is they're talking abotu it publicly. These dudes like to talk and talk and talk. Why not just STFU about it and let the front office do what they need to do?
