For the thousandth time, don't play Frank at the 1. Play him off the ball.

To what end? 

He isn't a starting PG that doesn't make him a starter anywhere else. If he can't play his position in the NBA and start for the worst team in the league... why are we holding onto him?  Sentiment?  He needs reps at PG if he is to develop.

He was drafted to play PG

He will sink or swim here or elsewhere as such.  If his true value is "utility guy off the bench you play for defensive purposes"  we had one of those already in Lance Thomas.

Tyrone: I love Tyrone.

Porzingis: hey Kam, wassup with KP? Did he do it or didn’t he?

He fucks up his knee when Giannis undercuts him and then hours later he is having sex? Maybe i'm just old now but i can't have sex unless all my chakras are aligned, i've stretched for twenty minutes, and my girlfriend has helped me roll on my compression socks.  But a young latvian sans his knee can still be hor-knee enough to fornicate.... i would've paid her the 68k if i was him.

Yes, it's an odd, odd business and thankfully KP is in Dallas for it.
Which may be just the right place. For tips on how to handle the situation. If it isn't true. Didn't Dirk have some kind of bizarre relationship with a woman who blackmailed him and the FBI had to intervene ?

Only the 10th time the Knicks have been favored to win all year.

Two terrible defenses and the O/U is only 214.5

Take the Bulls and the Over

[Kam]

Like i said, take the Knicks and the Under.

Q. Why is Jordan not playing?

A. Fizzy doesn't like vets not named Lance.

MEANWHILE ... Enes Kanter doing quite well for Portland, thank you:

Emmanuel Mudiay has now reached starter criteria and is eligible for a $5.75M Qualifying Offer. The New York Knicks point guard met the criteria by starting 41 games during the 2018-19 season. The cap hold of $12.88M in the off-season remains the same. New York will have until June 29 to extend the one-year guaranteed contract


So we either sign him right before the cap hold goes in effect to a lesser figure.... or  we set him free.

[facilitatorn]

Mudiay at 4 mil per year is ok. Hard to justify paying him any more than that.

Went to the game last night, only Garden appearance of the year for yours truly. My buddy had the tix, some kind of suite with complimentary hot dogs and sushi.

We've been going to games together for three decades. Got thrown out of a home opener together back in 88 or 89 and discovered MSG has an elevator that deposits you directly out onto the street. We yapped a lot last night so didn't focus hard on the game even as our boys built an unprecedented-for-this-season lead.

Kornet was involved in the game's two highlights. He was absolutely destroyed on a monster dunk by somebody named JaKarr Sampson who was playing his first game with the Bulls early in the 3rd. Then absolutely gave it back with a monster of his own later in the quarter.

The crowd liked the dunks, but like us, not very focused, didn't seem to notice when the lead got near 30, nor when it was cut back down to 5. And why should they. Basically one cut above summer league this game. Pete Rock was the guest DJ. I love Pete Rock, but something kind of sad about watching a true legend mix Michael Jackson songs during timeouts in a lost season.

•How close to summer league was it? The Bulls opened with Walt Lemon Jr., Shaquille Harrison, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, Wayne Selden Jr. and Robin Lopez.

•• The Jakarr Sampson slam. Notice how the play is triggered by a prototypical Mudiay stumble-and-be-stripped in the lane. Yeah, he's gotten better. No, you cannot give this guy real money over real years. https://twitter.com/NBCSBulls/status/1112881276573437954

And stops going to class.....

I really don't like this system.  But have no suggestions for a fix.

If the kids finish school year it cuts into workout time and costs dollars

If you move the combines and draft back it affects summer league.

Why wouldn't you give Mudiay 5.75 for 1?

[kiidcarter8]

Cap hold goes away if he signs elsewhere right?  So we lose 12 mil temporarily.  And if he signs say for 4-32 somewhere maybe we decide to match.
