Is every free agent obligated to put the Knicks on their list? None of them are going to sign there and in some of the cases the Knicks wouldn't want them in the first place.

More like the NY media places every free agent on the Knicks.

I get the idea, if you say The Knicks are interested people assume they need to be aggressive and quick because The Knicks are welling to give Max deals to concession stand managers. But The Knicks can't afford to sign anyone at the moment.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
It's disgusting all around.... we could easily tank without Asik.

There have been FAR worse deals than this one.. it is a little WTF but it isn't point and laugh bad...

All aboard! The Love train!
Bigs get paid. Darko got $5M a year.

"@ZachLowe_SI
My point: $8M/year to a guy w/ chance to be elite rebounder + one of league's half-dozen best big man defenders is not crazy."
Yes cause a SI beat writer knows all. It is crazy, this whole league is still crazy. Lock this league again.

Kwame Brown got paid 6.7 last year
Adam Blade

Well, he's Dalembert, but younger and better. No one would scoff at that deal for Dalembert.
Asik just needs to prove he can do what he did in Chicago for 30 minutes a game.
The only dumb move will be the Bulls matching and having his salary count as $14.5m in 2014.
He was pretty good when he did play. For a 1 year deal when they weren't going to sign anyone else it was fine.

Dalembert had more O than Asik which makes it even sadder.
Odds are he doesn't. Waste of money for a team tanking.

If he can put up 2006 - 08 Dalembert numbers it would be a good signing

Keep telling yourself that. I much rather have Dalembert... he could at least score.
Asik averaged 3 points a game and was a disaster on offense. Did you see him against the 76ers? He lost it for them.
This is smack your head what the fuck are you doing Rockets worthy.
I don't know what's worse, the Wallace for 40 mil or this.
Hibbert was abysmal and can squarely blame him self for the pacers not making the ECF.
And i'm entirely serious.
Guy had one good game.
After that he got out played by joel anthony.
I was a huge hibbert fan. But that series showed that he'll never be good enough mentally or game wise, to be anything other than another OK starting C.
He was the tallets guy on the floor by 5 inches at times! for extended times! ffs.

On the bright side for Bulls fans if they do match it basically means Boozer is going to get amnestied either now or next year.

Hibbert sucks, if you can't take advantage with Bosh down, I don't know what the fuck you are doing.
Our next tallest dude is 6-8'

I can't defend him in that series at all.... nothing positive can be said
But for the last two years he has played really well.. I think he could turn into a better player in the right team.. Portland with a rookie PG might not be that team... but oh well..
I always thought the same thing. I was a big Hibbert booster on here (and agree'd with you on monroe too!) but that series destroyed any belief i have in him.
So god damn disappointing. I really thought the pacers were one piece away. Now i'm not so sure.
Doc Holliday
SPOILER: Columbus finds America
They can't match. I love the guy but that's too much money especially with the ways things are right now. Who knows how long it's gonna take Rose to come back.
Blackace

Udonis Haslem is a rough defender, who has been playing hard D on taller players for awhile..
again no defensive for Hibbert's poor showing but let's not act like Udonis Haslem isn't a good defender..
:lol Dalembert can't score. He was terribad on offense and didn't make up for it on the defensive end. He lost his starting job to Camby at the end of the year, a guy with a career average of less than 10 points a game.
Blackace

I think the Pacers were a fucking mess of a team and Hibbert was the glue that made them run. Which is not exactly where you want to be..
Actually, the worst thing about Delmbert is that the thinks he CAN score and so takes shots or demands them. And if he's not getting plays run for him, he'll find a way to get his shots, to the detriment of the team.
If he could play within him self, he'd be so much more valuable a player.
The one thing that COULD save hibbert, is that i think Vogel is a terrible offensive coach. He really needs to go back to being an assistant, and not the head coach.

You can recycle those for Asik and actually make them even more negative.
Your Asik meltdowns will be glorious. I kinda hope Houston makes the playoffs just to see them at full power.
Vire

:lol
I'm kinda glad this happened, just so we can laugh at the Houston-GAF meltdowns.
I still feel bad that some teams have such bad GM's though...
I think that would be a good fit with him. Portland likes to play ugly games on offense.
I'd be surprised if they haven't already.
Blackace

What about Portland...is Kaleb Canales going to remain head coach?

I'm already having a meltdown, as is Smokey (cut us some slack). Only Rocket fan that likes this is Kad and some homers at Clutchfans, so laugh at him when this turns out to be awful.

Camby had a pretty decent year last year, averaged close to 10 boards.
I'd gladly take him, but that isn't saying much considering our center position.
Sorry.I think i remember Reilo indicating he would.
I'm not convinced on Canales, but there wasn't a lot of time for him to prove one way or the other last season.
Reilo seems to have raps on the guy. But then, he IS a blazer.
Though, here's a scary thought for portland. Hibbert and Aldridge would be one of the wrost rebounding front courts in the league.
LMA average 8rpg, and hibbert 8.8rpg last year. And that was hibberts best year ever.
Blackace

Why bring up Kevin Love?
The only thing he does well as a big is rebound..
He doesn't defend well nor play on the block...
Might as well compare him to a SG..

Jeremy Lin will learn a lot backing Steve Nash. Lin can be more himself playing off the bench.

Blackace how could you forget. HE'S DA 3 POINT SHOOTING CHAMPION.

It would give them a healthy front line something they have not had ever....

How does 15mpg help Lin?
He proved his worth. None of us in NYC really want to watch anyone else play. Knicks will do the right thing.

0% chance Nash goes to the Knicks.
Wasn't he quoted saying the Knicks are looking on the outside in?
3 Million is a joke for Nash compared to what Toronto is offering.
