The Brooklyn Nets have signed free agent forward Noah Vonleh. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not released. – via NBA.com

Maybe now i'll have a reason to watch the Nets.

I was arguing with our old pal Nagel, who texted me a trade phantasy, then wondered why I did not reply. 

Knox & Ntilikina and Dallas' 2021 #1 for Zach Levine. 

When he pushed me, I did not respond in the affirmative

Okay, I'm behind your argument about Rose.

But turning down Levine at that price — which I suspect is a fantasy anyway — would be balmy.

Even just hesitating before you say yes is insane.

I was just thinking "We could use this dude again" and looking up where he was playing.

Pure phantasy, jacking off around a can of sterno.

Rose to give us some 4Q punch and mentor IQ.
That makes sense.

And hand the Bulls an unprotected potential lottery pick?  Of course I'm hesitating for the time it takes to counter with the 2023 Dallas pick.

Jeez tuned in for the 4Q of a close CHA-HOU game and Rockettes fall apart (wall out).
A Hornettes 19-1 run to start the 4Q.
Ouch.

Which is why it would be nice to have two of them.

The way it’s structured, we could lockup Randle then extend Lavine the year after.

Mitch Randle RJ Zach IQ. I’d worry about the backcourt D, but otherwise it’s pretty good. You get your three picks while still having options to retain important supporting players who can carry forward their roles.

I like this approach better and would even sweeten it with a future second rounder in a year we have multiples.

If we draft a great guard who develops, Zach or IQ could find themselves in the D Rose / Lou Wil seat as the microwave second unit leader down the line.

Zach gonna be looking for a near-max deal.
You want to pay him $25M - $27M a year?

Could Thibs get ZeeLaVee to play acceptable D?

Your Dallas Knicks

KP with a big game for a change, 27 points, 13 rebounds and 6 blocks. I still don’t want him back.
Timmy Jr. not bad with 24 points.
Trey unremarkable as usual, with 5 points in 8 minutes.
