But they were willing to commit all that money to THJ before signing a GM?

Getting rid of Melo is either a situation you want Griffin himself to handle, or one you want him to not so that no blame gets put on him and so that a GM who was hired to build up a Cavs roster from scratch gets such an opportunity

The Lonzo narrative 180 is hilarious. From bust to GOAT.

I knew the hottakes would be sizzlin' this SL, but Jesus Christ...

He's a Laker, so he sucks by narrative alone...

Here? I believe that. Everywhere else not so much.

I would let Mills handle the 'Melo trade.

If Griffin does come in he needs a clean slate and not deal with the mess that is LOLKNICKS.

Looks like owners are telling him to move all these contracts to get under luxury tax levels

David Griffin pulled his name out of the Knicks job. They couldn't come to an agreement on what his role would be.

Knicks lack a PBO. Main competition for Melo that might drive up the price lack picks and a GM. Rockets GM is Morey.

Man I love this advantage. Cavs and Knicks fucking up might directly benefit us.

James Dolan refuses to get rid of his cronies. The man is loyal to his peeps.

Dan needs to hop on this, interview Griffin....

Windhorst talked about how assistant GMs in the Cavs refused offers to get paid more by other teams out of loyalty to Griffin. If Griffin could have wiped the slate mostly clean (minus their international talent/prospect evaluator who played a huge part in the better draft picks by the Knicks recently) and with his experience with dealing with knucklehead owners, he could have seriously helped the Knicks

Celtics sign Aron Baynes. 1yr/$4.3m.

 

[jbug617]

Knicks really stupid.

Sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Griffin and the Knicks were at odds over Griffin not having full authority on basketball decisions and Griffin preferring to bring in his own staff.

They can do this before signing Hayward?

 

[LyleLanley]

They can do this before signing Hayward?

It's just an agreement and it's for the mid-level exception so it doesn't matter.

 

[spyder_ur]

No it's for the room exception I believe. Celts had to go under the cap to sign Hayward and you lose the larger MLE when you do so. I don't think the order of signings matters in this case.

I think they're at 14 roster spots, but they could always waive Zizic and/or Jackson to clear another.

Lol, waive Zizic.

 

[Tall4Life]

Lol, waive Zizic.

Yeah, as if we would waive the future 2017-2018 unanimous MVP.

WOW, I just can't deal with this team anymore.

I always thought LOLKNICKS was a stupid meme but it's just too much at this f'n point.

Whelp, there's their big goofy white big to replace Oly..

Nah this guy can rebound at least.

 

[LyleLanley]

I'm just glad I don't have to sell myself on Bogut.

That's something at least..

Was hoping for Dedmond it's someone at last. Zizic is not close to ready.

That's what I was hoping for as well. Spurs would have probably matched anything though...

I would be lying if I said I watched a lot of CJ Miles. Apparently, he was a realistic target for the Raptors to acquire this off-season. Not sure about fit or anything.

Rj Barret consensus #1 in 2019 led Canada to the u19 fiba gold.

He'll be great on the sixers

DSJ looks like a problem out there. I think he can win ROY

 

[Frozenprince]

Replace the Bulls hat with a Knicks one and that's bout how I'm feeling.

 

[jdstorm]

Or as a smart GM he doesn't want to be on the hook for the repeater tax in 2-3 years time because he paid tax for a team that was going nowhere.

Dolan needs to be dragged out of MSG and never allowed to return.

God if only. At least step back or sell his stake in the team and not all the other businesses he has in the city.

Oops wrong thread

 

[msdstc]

You cannot leave jaylen wide open like that . Seriously though he's so confident in his ability to shoot. 2 quick 3s to start.

 

[Tom Penny]

Tatum's fade away is nuts. It looks so difficult but it goes in at 50% clip..

 

[MegaManTrigger]

Mfw my team acquired CJ Miles, and I googled him to see what he was like:

 

[msdstc]

At least zizic is making his presence felt on the glass, drawing a few fouls early. That FT form though yikes. He needs to work on his timing big time there.

Edit- and holy fuck zizic.......... What in the fuck was that.

 

[Frozenprince]

Sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Griffin and the Knicks were at odds over Griffin not having full authority on basketball decisions and Griffin preferring to bring in his own staff.

And we're back to Dolan making personnel moves.

And I wanna diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Why does he keep calling Zizic Zee-chich?

Albert had originally pleaded not guilty after being accused by a longtime lover of throwing her on a bed, repeatedly biting her on the back and forcing her to perform oral sex in an Arlington hotel room Feb. 12. The woman said Albert became enraged because she failed to procure another man and bring him to bed with them.

Albert finally agreed to the plea bargain after a second woman--a surprise witness--testified that three years ago Albert met her in a motel room wearing white panties and a garter belt. He lunged at her and then bit her, she said. The woman testified that she escaped his clutches after ripping his toupee off his head.

Albert faces up to a year in jail and a fine of $2,500. Sentencing is set for Oct. 24.

Sportscaster Marv Albert's sexual assault trial, which was replete with kinky details of lurid assignations in hotel rooms, came to an abrupt end Thursday when the flamboyant announcer pleaded guilty to assault and battery and was promptly fired by NBC.

In exchange for a guilty plea on the misdemeanor assault charge, prosecutors in Arlington, Va., dropped a more serious forcible sodomy charge.

Ok Jaylen

 

[msdstc]

Goddamn jaylen gets up so high, powered through 2 guys there as well.

Edit- lol that Marv Albert story is well known. Can't take him seriously knowing all of that.
