Ware, Dunn, and Ajinca would be a very good draft for us.

Hartenstein Robinson Ware
Randle Achuiwa Dunn
Anonoby Hart Ajinca
DiVincenzo Burks
Brunson McBride

We have a minimum, some small but above minimum exceptions and Bogeys salary along with future sweeteners to round out the backcourt with two slots to play with.

I would look to grab Dennis Smith Jr. for a second tour now he has seasoned up and either Dunn or Horton Tucker out of Utah. But I am not doctrinaire about it.

Bogdonavich?

We have Brunson, Randle, Robinson, Hart, Donte and Deuce locked up for next season. As priority to retain we have OG and Hartenstein. Clearing Bogey makes that fiscally doable. I would also like to retain Precious and Burks if those guys will take reasonable offers. This would bring us near the tax line and have us fill out the roster with near minimum and minimum deals along with rookie contracts.

We know we have a good mix with enough firepower to win our way into the playoffs. The goal will be to pair back minutes and dole out rest so we can get more of our core into the playoffs healthy and ready to play.

Hartenstein Robinson
Randle Achuiwa
Anonoby Hart
DiVincenzo Burks
Brunson McBride

Add two rookies and two ring chasers, preferably one a stretch five, and we can give the East a run for its money if not the league. I will be happy if we go that route and do not needlessly over complicate things with our roster construction.

Holy Shit!

Still Worried?

If we make it to the ECF, 2023-24 is all gravy. 

Some respect for Thibs?

Embiid shot more free throws than the Knicks. 5-8 is tougher on the road especially when the league thinks that they owe your opponent one.

Payne was the guy.

OG waking up and Precious making an appearance were good signs.

We may miss Mitch.

It would be really nice to tighten some seams, find some more flow and steal the next one.

I am worried that Philly will overcome our best efforts to win game 4 and send us home tied.

If only Mike Miller was our coach.

Maxey and Embiid will probably both be closer to the top of their games with the three day layoff.

Very Scary

Keep The Faith

Knicks out rebound Philly 55-33.

Knicks don't develop young players.

Mitchell and Deuce both #36 picks.

Lowry and Maxey scary.

Hart, scarier.

They were down KP and Horford. And that result will make them extra pissed off and motivated by the time they see us.

Any further predictions?

I am worried about our next game against the Celtics. They have the best defensive backcourt in basketball and hardly ever lose games. Tatum and Brown are a menacing tandem. I do not see how we have enough to beat them.

Didn't they lose last night?

Our BARCELONA Euro stash, #34 pick from the McBride/Sims Draft, ROKAS JOKUBAITIS, will be competing on the Knicks summer league team.
