lol, I think he already told you, his needle mover — D.J. Augustin at 5 years $72 mil


*** I don't know why his first choice wasn't FVV who surely would have come if Rose had just sent him a Walmart gift basket of bath essentials

I've gone through it before, more than once. 
Part of my problem is the draft pick.

Draft Avdija - starting SF
Sign Wood as FA (he went for $13M to a different crappy team)

Toss a big offer at FVV.  Van Fred signed for 4/$85M.
Maybe for 4/$95 and a chance to run his own team we get him.
(start him at $25M dropping $1M per year; a heap more than the $19M or so he's gonna start at for TOR).  Extra $10M total, but an extra $5 or $6M upfront, first year.

FVV - RJB - Avdija - Randle/Wood - Mitch
That's an interesting team.
Much better than what we did.
If we had that in place, it could be tempting for FVV along with the extra moolah.


If you don't get FA FVV:

I'd rather Rondo than Elf, or swing some deal for Rubio, he got shuffled around plenty.  PG was always going to be the tough get.  Elf at leats affords some continuity, but he'd likely be my Plan D.

And then another option would be to scrap Woods and drop the $18M per year offer ATL did for Bogdan.  Sweet shooter with a pretty good handle.  RJB/Bogdan/Avdija would be a nice set of wings.  Imagine having quality wings.  What a concept.

Who knows what dumb alternative world Les lives in.
But it seems to be one in which he endlessly mocks people for dumb ish he misattributes to them. 

Try not to constantly embarrass yourself ....
Chip mentioned DJ Augustine; not a player I'd considered at all.

An extra $10M (an extra $6M upfront) and his own team to run -- FVV certainly would have had to think about it.  Imo, adding Avdija would have presented a more balanced, appealing roster.

Hey, I was campaigning for DJ AUGUSTIN. 

Apparently he prefered to play for an NBA Finals Team.

Go figure. 

Yup.  Free Agency Is The Ideal Way For The Knicks To Move The Needle. 

PS: I am rooting hard for Dennis Smith. I remember how well he played for us in the Spring of 2019, right after the trade.  But, hey, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.  I'm MELTING.  Apparently I've lost it.  COMPETITION Folks.  Rose and Perrin and Thibs brought on Jared Harper, Austin Rivers, Elfrid Payton and Immaneul Quickley to put the fire to Dennis and Frank in an open casting call for Point Guard Arias in the center ring of the Knicks Circus at the world's greatest arena.
