Phil's Drunk Messin' With The Association Save Again: Knicks 2015-2016 Tryout / Off Season Thread

[The War Report]

How are we old and slow at the PG spot?

Calderon is on the roster.

 

[Kitsch]

i say sign west and danny green. go after robin lopez or biyombo


PG Caledron
SG Green (7 mil)
SF MELO
PF West (8 mil)
C Bismarck/ Lopez (5-6 mil)


Only spent 20/21 mil so we got like 8 mil next year and the cap goes up. we can sign conley if we go after him hard (assuming marc is leaving this year)

He's 6'9".

I still think Lopez follows LMA wherever he goes outside of SA.

Wherever that is they would need over 28 mill in cap space...I thought Wesley Matthews was LAs boy though?

Lopez may not ask for a ton of money and they complement each other very well. Robin does all the shyt he doesn't want to do.

Wes wants and deserves big money IMO. Injury and all.

Calderon is on the roster.

So one vet pg makes us old and slow

Melo and then you add David West. 3/5ths of your lineup is old and slow.

 

[The War Report]

Khris Middleton a max contrac

Hell no. He's a chucker.

 

[JMurder]

It's embarrassing how many fans want to spend all the cap space in one season just to be the 8th seed

I don't want them to spend all the cap space, but if they can get two QUALITY starters this season (one of which being an all-star) then I think they should go on head and do it. Fill in the rest of the roster between this season and next with the young pieces we already have and cheap vets and I think we can do better than 8th. I don't see any reason to hold onto most of the cap space when all the good talent that might be willing to take paycuts are free agents this year. All the guys that might guarantee us to be ECF contenders won't be coming here unless the rookies and soph's show out this year anyway.

How come you figure David West would be starting?

Why wouldn't he? Porzingis ain't starting.

 

[JMurder]

Why wouldn't he? Porzingis ain't starting.

Wouldn't that depend on who we have at center and how Porzingis looks in summer league? And why we consider Melo old? 31 old now?

 

[storyteller]

Phil should offer Khris Middleton a max contract over Wes Matthews.

The Bucks are gonna match though. With the cap increases coming, I doubt RFA's do much moving.

Melo is old and on the decline. There's no need to rush Porzingis. Develop him slowly.

Throw the kitchen sink at DJ.
