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

[ExodusNirvana]

Im biting my nails on it just like you Homie

We still got Monroe, Affalo, Matthews, and a couple of other names we still in the running for

Aldridge, and Gasol was always a long-shot

The Knicks are gonna end up tanking again this season.

Phil Collins and I can both feel it.

The goal is to make NY so bad that when Zeke comes back it'll look like he saved y'all

I hate you because you're right

Feels like a lot of teams are gonna be struggling with Luxury Tax implications after the spending sprees...could see some fire sale players. I really think the trade market could be solid soon.

Honeslty i want your thoughts...Do you guys think you are attempting to be a title contender w/ melo in the next 2-4ish years?


Because to me, atleast what i get from the moves you made, is that you guys are in an all in, unspoken rebuild.....the only reason you guys signed melo was to give the fans something in the mean time and for buisness purposes = revenue from his name.


idk tho

Nope.

NBA's new TV deal will inject so much money into the salary cap that a $90 million cap for the 2016-17 season was realistic.

What few saw coming: a $108 million salary cap with a luxury tax threshold of $127 million in 2017-18.

 

[Illuminatos]

Wake up Phil.

Nope.

That doesn't help them get under the luxury tax this year

 

[Wargames]

Wake up Phil.

The knicks are both interested in either LMA and Monroe. They can't move until those two make up their mind one way or the other. We're stuck.

Teams are going to bite the bullet this year knowing the cap is going to increase after the season, I mean you can literally see them operating under this principle

I wouldn't mind a Robin Lopez/Monroe tandem at all

Eventually we ARE going have to overpay someone if they're serious about bringing talent in this summer. Nobody is going to give a team that won 17 games last year bargain/fair market deals.

Idk but I doubt we're getting LMA. I'll be content with Monroe and West and some role players though.

Just build a decent squad next year and make the playoffs.
