Porzingis' brother just informed Hahn and Humpty that Kristaps has been dealing with a hip issue that could delay his summer league debut. Injury's not major, but still
that was bound to happen after the cramping stuff and the draft workouts plus being as tall as he is.
Breh, I've literally watched all of Iman's games since he's been in the league. He didn't develop properly. That's not all his fault though.
But, he always was in foul trouble early on. He gambled entirely too much. And he can not be relied upon to make a corner three when he's passed the ball.
How does Rondo fit the triangle perfectly?? He is another inconsistent shooter. At this point in his career...I don't see how he'd be able to contribute to a team trying to reestablish an identity as a professional winning organization. The NY Knicks have been a joke for a decade. You hear of the NY Yankees & you expect every player to be clean shaven & professional. You hear of the NY Knicks...you expect...
Breh... First of all..>Marc Gasol coming to the Knicks would make him the best Center the East has seen since... Dwight played for Orlando.

I hope you guys get Marc Gasol. The league needs the Knicks to be a contender. It would generate sooo much casual fan interest.
West seems like a done deal.

I would love an off season of Monroe, D. West and Wesley Mathews...Either stretch Calderon's contract or include a 1st round pick to move the contract.
West is 35 and Matthews is coming off a torn Achilles.
Too caught up in the name breh, if I'm the Knicks I go after guys like Danny Green, Greg Monroe / Bismack Biyombo as my main big targets, then line up for Al Faroq Aminu & Corey Joseph type dudes, somewhat
but with a little room for improvement. The Knicks need depth badly.
1. david west is 35 years old
2. the reason the knicks are in this situation, is because of decisions like this
Tim Hardaway: I won’t forget Phil Jackson’s diss
By Marc Berman
Tim Hardaway Jr. meets the Atlanta media on Monday, days after his draft night trade from the Knicks.
New Hawks shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. says he will use Knicks president Phil Jackson’s critical remarks about him Friday as motivation.
In explaining why he gave up on Hardaway, the Zen Master said he believed Notre Dame senior point guard Jerian Grant has more of the attributes the Knicks want from a guard.
“Once I heard him say that, all hands on deck now,” Hardaway told reporters Monday at his introductory press conference in Atlanta. “Obviously as a basketball player, you take that to heart. So, it’s time to move on, get better, and when the time comes, the time comes. Right now, it’s all about Atlanta basketball.”
Jackson and Knicks coach Derek Fisher deemed Hardaway an ill fit for the triangle. Hardaway made the All-Rookie First Team after being drafted No. 24 by the Knicks in 2013. He had a rough season with reduced minutes in 2014-15. Fisher was down on Hardaway’s defense, rebounding ability and propensity to share the ball. Hardaway averaged double figures in scoring in both seasons.
“The triangle is a tough offense to get used to,” Hardaway said. “You really have to be dedicated and mature to that end. We tried. We tried our best while we were there, but it’s a learning process. You learn and you get better each and every day. I think after a year, those guys will get used to it.”
On what went wrong in his second season, Hardaway said: “It all started with summer league. Summer league we did a great job as a team, and then during the regular season it didn’t click very well going through training camp. I don’t know what happened. It was just a tough situation, a tough environment for all of us. It was definitely a learning experience.
“There was a lot of negative but a lot of positive moments through last year. It really helps you grow as an individual and a ball player to realize that nothing comes easy in this league and you have to work for everything. So, it definitely made me mature a lot more as a basketball player and take advantage of this opportunity a lot more.”
Hardaway’s buddy Carmelo Anthony reportedly was upset on Draft Night — ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith reported Anthony felt “betrayed” — but The Post reported the Knicks star was more angry at the Hardaway trade than the team selecting European project Kristaps Porzingis.
“I’m not sharing anything,” Hardaway said. “That’s between me and Melo, and it’s going to stay that way.”
This entitled motherfukker, man.
Going after the name and not the actual production, and realistically whoever the Knicks sign should be a center. They should not be signing any PFs to long term deals, you have to start Kristaps over the second half of the season, like the Bucks did with Giannis his first year, and the Jazz did with Exum. Throwing the foreigners into the fire early is the only way they make it.
