We should definitely be trying to deal one of our PFs to the Lakers.  Even if its for a 2029 #1 pick.

Portis is a center for us. Morris is a small forward. We have two power forwards on the roster in Randle and Taj. I think it’s a good idea to hang on to them, not that we have any choice till December anyway.

Honestly, if Knicks make a nice push this year I would consider offering Cousins 3-15 or so.  UPSIDE is enormous

My guess is he will want ONE YEAR and a CONTENDER (LA fits)

At 3-15 Cousins would be a steal

But as I said the likely answer from Boogie is thanks but no thanks

Sure, but why would we want Cousin Boogie to steal $15M?

Let me guess ... you were one of those who wanted to pay Durant $37M to not play this year.

McDyess, Amare, Noah...
(okay, $5M isn't much, but adds up combined with Noah's dead $6.5M's)
Not to mention all the aging ex-All-Stars who have passed through looking like Joe Louis v. Rocky Marciano -- Penny, Rose, McGrady, Francis, etc.

When does one learn?

I'm convinced Knix like to make flashy signings merely to attract the rubes who fill up the seats.   Without much regard to health, age, ability, winning.

I’m hoping we give that a rest for a while. We’re still paying off Noah and we don’t know how the Bullock situation will play out, though it’s relatively minor in terms of money.

Could Boogie take a couple of years and undergo a McDyess like career transformation? Even in that case I’d rather be the Pistons than the idiot team that paid him to rehab (us), so it’s at least 3 years out.

The Portis, Randle, Morris, Taj haul is looking better and better.

lol...umpteen posts about a 1/30 of the cap bet on stellar talent. stealing money, too funny.

Then expect umpteen posts about how a list of guys who wouldn't be difference makers on the Azerbaijan national team are the real bargains..

G'head now..

Oh, he will be. I say 20-62, a three game improvement, no less!

What do you say?

Still bullish on RJ - but

player to watch for me this year is Darius Garland.  Trade down could have netted.......

and the guy can fucking PLAY!

Kings could have had Fox-Barnes-Bagley all working out together under the direction of Pops and competing at a high level this Summer. 
Now down to just Barnes.
Seems like a missed opp.

Taj was on my list of vets to pick up.
Smart hardworking guy.  Aging.
Good mentor.  Also could be a good trade chip, as he cna benefit a contender more than us.

Hopefully Randle can be a rock and mesh with Mitch.
I'm hoping it doesn't lead to him jacking too many 3's.
And his defense is decentish.

Morris seems like a mercenary.  Here for one year.  But who knows.
Tough guy.  Versatile game.

Portis a reasonable gamble.  Has talent, but needs more consistency/focus.  Can he defend?  Does he have a position?
I doubt he'll punch Randle, more likely Knox or Mitch.

Be more exciting if Knix had the PG situation figured out.
And some two-way players wouldn't hurt.
