Rose freed ISO. Bet he joins a playoff team.

We picked up Theo Pinson.

I thought Pinson was taller than 6’5”. Hasn’t hit 3’s in the NBA.

graffiti of Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo in Greece was vandalized with Nazi symbols on the one-year anniversary of the Greek Freak winning NBA MVP. Unknown vandals committed this despicable act by putting the swastika and “SS” signs on Giannis’ right arm on the graffiti and covering his face with a smudge.

Rough.

Dislike for Neo-Nazis aside, graffiti is a form of vandalism.  Grafitti covered by other grafitti happens all the time.

It sucks that Greece has trumpist parties with idiot adherents just like we do in the USA.

Deni Avdjia stepped up in one more game for Maccabi Tel Aviv upon the return of the Israeli League and helped his team log a 103-65 victory over Hapoel Holon. 19-year-old Avdija exited the court with 18 points (7/10 FG) and five rebounds in a little over 21 minutes, leading Maccabi to another victory to keep the team on top of the league’s standings. – via EuroHoops.net


The real deal?

[facilitatorn]

Deni can play.

Pinson w team option next year vs. Trier who could be chased w QO.

...Crooked Hillary Clinton in 2016. They are called SUPPRESSION POLLS, and are put out to dampen enthusiasm. Despite 3 ½ years of phony Witch Hunts, we are winning, and will close it out on November 3rd! pic.twitter.com/4IhuLUZjsv

Predictable -

Noah signs with Clippers through next season

[facilitatorn]

Good move for player and team. Might get Noah a chip and he has good location and teammates. What’s not to like?

On the Knicks joining the NBA’s NIT,

The Knicks, sources say, have expressed reservations about participating, in part because they have a roster with several soon-to-be free agents who might decline to take part (as many as eight players potentially). If accommodations could be made to help a team like the Knicks fill its roster by way of G League players, however, then that could be an X-factor of sorts. – via Sam Amick @ The Athletic

Not really a fan of just dumping Trier like that.
But he hadn't expanded his game, and his defense was infuriating at times.
I could see him a short-minute bench microwave for some stable team.

I had been saying for a long time that the Knix needed to choose between Trier/Dot, and that Dot looked better since he plays some D and can play the 3 some.  Just a more steady player.

Leon Rose touts Dennis Smith Jr. as having “special talent.” Says RJ Barrett and Mitchell Robinson are two proven bedrock pieces. Says he still thinks Kevin Knox is “scratching the surface.”

Well, off-season quotes.  When everyone is in the best shape of their lives and training hard, etc. 

RJB and Mitch are somewhat raw neophytes who have shown some potential.  Hopefully both can become long-term starters.

Knox might be drowning.
Jr. Smith needs hype for many reasons.

But for all are losing seasons and high draft picks, that's not much to hang your hat on.  Did Rose mention Franc?

[kiidcarter8]

“Deni is on the right track. He works hard. He’s trying to keep himself focused on the game of basketball. He’s always in the gym working. He has a good advantage because he gets a chance to watch guys who are pros train with him. With myself, Quincy Acy, Omri Casspi, we all played in the NBA. He gots to learn from us which is good for him.”

If it is Anthony vs Avdija on draft night - tough call for me.

Trier was a RFA and waiving him saved the Knicks around ~5mil in cap space.  Pinson eats into that cap room but he has a team option.
