Thibs' thinking is interesting. 

Sees him as a dynamic practice player, capable of really engaging and driving the other wings.  Shot .402% [49-122] in 35 games as a 23 years old for Memphis back in 2017-18.  Is now 27, and at 6'5"/230 fits the profile of the big wings Thibs seems to like. 

As for his strying power, well, I'm sure the opportunistic Knicks front office have their radar up for anything tasty that comes across the waiver wire.  Thus their thinking on offering a two way contract to the Spurs 6'11"/227 Luka

Very odd...most of my post did not translate...seems like any cutting and pasting queers the deal.

It might be a problem between the keyboard and chair on your end. You should see about a firmware upgrade for that component.

Yeah, I encountered that the last couple of times. Couldn't figure out what to do....or what to avoid.

Is it only with issues of cutting and pasting?

Anyone have any advice?

My guess is that advice could come from Josh. I can tell you it's not only with issues of cutting and pasting. It happened to me at random times. Also, I think, at times when I tried to use the Alt key to write special characters.

Have us at 43-39.

New York Knicks Under 41.5

After finishing fourth in the East with a record of 41-31 last season, New Yorks win-total is stationed directly above that identical mark as most books are taking bets on whether this young Knicks squad is going to improve last years tally by just one game.

Nobody expected much from New York heading into last year, as the Knicks wrapped up their previous campaign with an underwhelming record of 21-45 and didnt make any groundbreaking offseason moves other than acquiring Sixth Man of the Year candidate Derrick Rose.

New York has visibly improved over the last few seasons, but last year seemed a little too good to be true, as the Knicks miraculously mounted a late nine-game winning streak and ended up closing out the regular season with victories in 16-of-20 games.

The Knicks are still an excellent young squad that comfortably deserves inclusion in postseason conversations but asking them to win 40+ games again and compete for a 3-5 seed like they did last year, seems like a tall task.

At least for now...

When cutting and pasting

Delete all apostrophes, quotation marks and hyphens (as far as I know - others can tell you if they have encountered other problems)

Embid says Ben Who?

Whoever advising Ben is really fucking up. Philly has all the juice, all the cards. Ben has none. He will end up broken financially or emotionally, not good for a player who has already shown a complete inability to handle NBA pressure. Distraction for Philly? On the contrary, what wonderful and luscious motivation...
