Following this season Shai makes 33 then 37 mil.  This year likely yields no fruit.  So what is the plan with Shai going forward?  Take a good 2 year run?

Shai and Giddy are going to carve up their conference. It may or may not lead to wins, but it will be fun to watch.

Since we all love doing business with Danny, Bojan for Evan and the conditional first from Washington.

They are essentially interchangeable on the floor with Bojan the better passer. His deal ends this year.

PPS: Right, I can hear someone saying that "Gordon would be our ticket to the playoffs."  Uh huh.


I have to ask

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Any bit of information posted here has to be  LEVELED to the ground.

Posting abut Gordon doesn't mean I approve the deal.  Or anyone here has.

I know you are some kind of wannabe or failed writer but these newspaper guys get the shaft from you immediately every time.  Its become amusing.

When it comes to Trader Vics, we are truly humbled to engage with such a master of the craft. 

Who else in the Knicks originization could contest the irrefutable logic of your construct. 

Let alone the spiritual topper of proferring a #1 draft pick--A NUMBER ONE Fucking DRAFT PICK--to friend of the family, Danny "I Want World Wide Wes' First Born Child + Seven Number One Picks" Ainge. 

Duly noted.  BRAVO. 

I'm guessing that only the call of some pressing business diverted you from completing this spiritual epiphany by offering DannyBoy a complmentary reach around on the house. 



A curious oversight on such a well thought out phantasy.

A highly protected pick, protected to the high teens if it ever conveys.

Hearing Bojan is injured, the whole idea has to be scuttled anyway.

Back to looking at Hayward or Barnes.

Randle for Barnes, Lyles, and Davis.

They would all be playing for a next contract.

Mitch IHeart Sims
Toppin Barnes Lyles
RJ Reddish Fournier
Grimes IQ Davis
Brunson Rose McBride

It unclogs everything by replacing Randle with two forwards who produce from the wing spot and another body to throw at physical wings in Davis. Lyles is not much but could be a plug in emergencies.

Barnes is not in the caliber of Randle, but his style is still effective, good for our team, and he is someone Obi can gain from emulating in his development. Barnes would return some of the level headed leadership lost in Taj leaving while being potentially more effective on the floor.

Barnes turns 31 at the end of the season, Lyles is 27, and Davis is 25.

This makes sense if you believe that Obi getting 15 and 7 over 30 minutes is more conducive to the Knicks winning than Randle getting 20 and 10 over 35.

Toppin and Barnes do not slow the game down until they are ready to make their move. They move the game along and they try to keep up with their defensive responsibilities, good qualities in power forwards.

It would put the offensive leadership onus squarely in the backcourt which is the place on this team where I trust it.

The Kings can Keep Davis. We have the guards we need.  I am fine with Barnes and Lyles for Randle.

Mitch IHeart Sims
Obi Barnes Lyles
RJ Cam Fournier
Grimes IQ
Brunson Rose McBride

That will work for me.

Lyles, Barnes, and Randle had nearly the same PER, 16.1, 15.7, and 15.6, respectively. Lyles and Barnes have usages just north of 18, while Randle has a usage of 28. Lyles and Barnes have true shooting percentages over .610 while Randle was around .500. Lyles and Barnes each have a significantly better win share rate than Randle, and both are net positives on both offense and Defense.

Neither needs to start or get lots of shots and either can step in and produce as needed. It reduces friction on Obi moving into a starting spot.

Now you are getting it.

Also the Bogdon of the Hawks has the knee problem. Bojan of the Jazz is just fine, so the Utah deal is back on where they take Evan and a conditional first and a second for him.

Even if Thibs wants to start by trotting out the vets, we are a better team. The only guy on that starting lineup who gets less than 16 per game is Mitch.

Mitch IHeart Sims
Barnes Obi Lyles
Bojan Reddish
RJ Grimes IQ
Brunson Rose McBride

We are sending out 34 points 12 rebound and 7 assists while taking back 42 points, 13 boards, and 6 dimes while addressing our lack of depth at small stretch swing forward and saving us two million this year and 44 the year following unless we like these guys enough to bring them back.

There, I made it all better for you.

The lineups I would want to see is Mitch Toppin Barnes Barrett Brunson with Hartenstein Lyles Reddish Grimes Quickley off the bench and Rose and Bogdonovic as next men up while Sims and McBride develop. Bojan might beat out Cam, which would be fine. Rose I think would be good giving Quickley the more regular role.
